Bro I can quit adding things to Sonarr whenever I want I just need one more drive bro last time bro I swear bro

This is the most sane take I’ve read in this entire debacle. Between arguing the semantics of attestation vs verification and whether we need five hundred forks and PRs, I’m glad to read this.

The biggest mistake the original PR did was not make it more clear it’s not directly because of the laws themselves, it’s to support higher level systems that may want to or need to comply. Systemd is no more complying with any present or future laws than a keyboard manufacturer is violating the law if the user uses it to type racially motivated hate speech.

Meanwhile every sane country lets you file for free without the use of proprietary software.

Narp.

There is absolutely nothing of worth in that article.

First of all, the team size is irrelevant. Even if the maintainers all end up in plane crashes or whatever, all that would happen is packages would “revert” to core Arch when a newer version is released.

Secondly, Secure Boot is a Microsoft-controlled technology that is not FOSS, and should not be considered mandatory like the author implies.

Lastly, the author conveniently doesn’t offer any evidence as to what exactly about Cachy’s “culture” (whatever that means) encourages AUR usage. The only thing I can think of is the fact that an AUR helper is preinstalled.

Not a single claim that isn’t incorrect on its face actually has any sources backing it up.

Can you elaborate on which part of this article has more worth than your average AI slop article?

I’ll check them out, thank you!

What are some good free indexers? I’ve only heard of paid ones (nzbgeek personally) 🤔

You skipped over the fact that getting vanilla Arch installed is often what trips people up, and also what makes people who run vanilla Arch feel like they accomplished something and truly built something - because they did.

You’re also glossing over the fact that a lot of people run the CachyOS kernel even on vanilla Arch because of the performance gains from having a kernel specifically compiled for instructions your CPU supports.

In other words; I don’t think the convenience of a proper installer, nor even just a 5% gain in performance, is just “marketing”.

Bias disclaimer; I run CachyOS btw

I think part of the reason I don’t care that much about Steam achievements is that they don’t do anything, plus the fact that they can be scammed via 3rd party tools.

I’ve only used said tool once to grant myself the “Paragon level 200” achievement and “Explore Nahantu” achievement in Diablo IV because I earned those on BNet and the unlocks aren’t retroactive.

While I might limit myself from “unlocking” achievements I haven’t earned, there’s nothing stopping someone else from “platting” a game they have played for 20 minutes, other than a lack of profile feed posts for these cheated achievements. As much as I would like Valve to make achievements matter, they can’t be allowed to matter while that tool exists.

I’m gonna give the original image the benefit of the doubt by saying that all I think they intended was to say that using heroin and snorting cocaine from an unsanitary location are both unhealthy activities.

I understand what you’re saying and I think the concept of “war on drugs” and the way pretty much every country in the world handles drug policy is backwards, but I don’t think the original image intended to disparage drug users.

Can you please elaborate on how someone died “because of this” in the context of the rest of your message? I am genuinely curious, because 100% of stories I’ve heard of loss of life involving the concept of transgenderism has been teenagers/young adults committing suicide as a result of having their entire support system taken away overnight because they express themselves differently than their assigned gender at birth.

I would also challenge the concept of anyone “pushing” transgenderism on children, because I have seen exactly 0 evidence for this, but I also understand that “pushing” is a subjective term, not a scientific one.

And the alternative is what? Chromium?
