This was refuted long ago. Systemd isn’t a single binary file doing everything, it’s a project that has many different binaries doing many different things. The only difference is that they are developed under one project to ensure they integrate well with each other. What your doing is like complaining that glibc tries to do everything, I mean it does open, read, write, malloc, printf, getaddrinfo, dlopen, pthread_create, crypt, login, exit and more… Xorg would be another example of a project that does many things instead of one very well.

You make it sound as if it’s a religion … UNIX isn’t a dogma handed down by an infallible being, just a piece of software that made sense for its time. Todays needs are different than the needs 40 years ago, so ofc things have to change.

I wonder how korea fits into that view, overthrowing the western backed dictators sure didn’t work out that well for the North Koreans. And what are your thoughts on the Khmer Rouge, chinas mao etc… I don’t think any of those regimes would have turned out any nicer even if there had been a successful communist enclave in Europe.

It looks to me as if communism in practice is little more than a thinly veiled ploy to fool uneducated masses into accepting a authoritarian government. Personally I think that it’s a fragile system that’s extremely vulnerable to be taken over by authoritarians “in the name of the people”. It‘s an idealistic system, and idealism is similar to religion in the sense that it’s prone to radicalisation because it’s members consider themselves to be right and just by default. It’s also prone to sacrifice individuals(even lots and lots of individuals) for the sake of the “whole”, which tends to be the 1% at the top in practice.

Naja, hat ja keiner behauptet das das eine kluge Politik ist. Aber Betrug ist Betrug und sollte in einem Rechtsstaat bekämpft werden. Ist ja auch eine Frage der Demokratie, wenn parlamentarische mehrheiten, die in freien und fairen Wahlen gewählt werden, Gesetze verabschieden und dann eine Folgeregierung die nicht die Mehrheiten hat diese Gesetze rückgängig zu machen sie stattdessen missachtet … nicht so toll oder?

Works for me.

Es ist die 6. kriminellste Stadt Europas(https://fr.numbeo.com/criminalité/classements-actuels-pour-la-région?region=150) und die Heimat der italienischen Camorra(https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camorra)…

Keine Ahnung wie gut du dich in Süditalien auskennst aber das ist eine andere Welt. Das meloni kein netter Mensch mit humanen oder liberalen Ansichten ist ist mir klar, das heißt aber nicht das die Probleme nicht existieren.

Naja, Sozialmissbrauch bei alleinstehenden langzeitarbeitslosen in Neapel klingt für mich jetzt nicht so furchtbar unglaubwürdig. Ist halt ein Problem wenn sich Korruption, organisierte Kriminalität und Armut in einer Region treffen. Das hat jetzt nichts mit Menschen in Schubladen stecken zu tun, letztlich versucht halt jeder das beste für sich unter den jeweiligen Umständen herauszuholen.

Und das Politiker Probleme und gar Rechtsbruch aus wahltaktischen Gründen ignorieren glaub ich auch gerne. Das hat auch nix mit rechts oder links zu tun. Der eine ist halt auf dem Auge blind der andere auf dem anderen. Deswegen ist ja der offene Diskurs im Parlament und auf der Straße so wichtig in der demokratie, die Wahrheit liegt halt oft in der Mitte.

Actually most of the money are just 1‘s and 0‘s in a computer, coming into existence from nothing and vanishing into nothing. Fiat money backed by “trust”. As Henry Ford once said:

It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.

Finde ich höchst bedenklich, gerade für Anwälte, Journalisten etc. Finde es außerdem krank wie natürliche Personen wider einmal Entitäten zweiter Klasse werden. Unternehmen haben billigeren Strom, sind vor staatlicher Überwachung geschützt, müssen weit weniger steuern zahlen etc. Das ist doch pervers. Was ist nur aus “Wir sind das Volk!” geworden? Unsere Demokratie ist krank, die Idee einer repräsentativen Demokratie in der gewählte Vertreter die Interessen der Wähler vertreten funktioniert offensichtlich nicht.

No, that’s a very bad idea. BTRFS has deduplication, without that the snapshots would take up way to much space. Also it’s too many writes since ext4 doesn’t use cow and would have to do distinct writes for every snapshot.

The 240 gb are plenty for a root system without /home and years worth of snapshots on a btrfs volume, only the changes take up space so the amount of snapshots hardly matters.

For /home either ext4, xfs or btrfs is fine. Personally I only use a single btrfs volume and put certain folders in their own subvolumes so they can have different settings for snapshots(no snapshots for /home, tmp and cache folders).

Man könnte ja der Meinung sein das man das kontrovers diskutieren könnte, die Abwägung zwischen Datenschutz und Privatsphäre auf der einen und die Verfolgung von Straftätern auf der anderen Seite … wenn, ja wenn es nicht so verdammt unsinnig wäre.

Verschlüsselung ist Mathematik, es ist vollkommen trivial einen cipher zu programmieren der dann halt keine eingebaute backdoor hat … die Strafverfolgung fällt damit flach, die Dienste mit backdoors werden ja dann von Straftätern nicht mehr genutzt, der Verlust von Privatsphäre und Datenschutz bleibt aber allen.

Ist für mich ein weiteres Symptom der Dummheit unserer Politiker. Technikverständnis null, die glauben echt das sie die Mathematik kontrollieren können… als Nächstes machen sie der Physik Vorschriften.

Indeed, bitch has some other connotations, some women refer or get referred to as a bitch if they are ill tempered for example. Hure, in German, means one and only one thing. It’s also not exactly a playful way to refer to sex workers and usually not used to refer to them to their face, it’s what only a total asshole would call a heroin addicted sex worker that has lost all self respect and is dead inside to their face.

It’s quite bad, I’m not aware of an equivalent insult in the English language. Son of a whore doesn’t quite cut it as even whore is quite a tame insult as it also gets applied to merely “sluttish” women.

That 40 year old X protocol might be the issue here, use wayland for multi monitor with different resolutions.

Must be nice to be rich.

So it’s people borking it and not the “system itself”. You have control over which people are involved in the software on your system ne it affects the likelihood of it ending up borked.

Nope, it doesn’t. It always requires human assistance or random hardware failure. It’s either the user, the distro, package maintainer or upstream fucking up.

Personally I blame half on users for picking the wrong distro(not suited for beginners) and half on the linux community giving poor advice(use the terminal). Not everyone has the time or inclination to become a power user and if people wouldn’t be so thickheaded and recommending the same problematic distros over and over to these people it wouldn’t be such a mess.

I have a 80 year old neighbour whose old windows laptop was a mess and who was open to trying a new OS(because he couldn’t operate windows either anyway). I setup a MicroOS system for him, put a taskbar extension on it and showed him how to install software from gnome-software(which only has flatpaks). ZERO problems in half a year. He doesn’t have to do anything nor learn anything. He happily installed some card games, reads the few websites he follows and that’s it.

Hm, kinda nice on one hand, kinda not a proper solution on the other. Sounds like a lot more work for the same amount of people, not to mention this means lots of duplicate efforts for others like rocky linux, oracle and whatever hard fork SuSE is planning. I think they should at least pool efforts and resources. I mean I get not wanting to deal with Suse and oracle but you’re already downstream of a corporate shitshow.

Moderating large subreddits is a ton of work, chances are the people willing to do that work are already doing it and will thus either be part of the ones being removed or to busy with their current workload elsewhere. I mean it’s basicly a unpaid volunteer job that doesn’t benefit your resume, doesn’t exactly sound like something people stand in line for.

Menschen brauche halt ein Einkommen, was schlägst du vor das die von spenden leben, Sozialhilfe beantragen oder auf Schlosser umschulen? Ich mag Meta auch nicht besonders aber man kann es mit der “Unternehmen sind böse”- Nummer auch übertreiben, wir können halt nicht alle von gender-Wissenschaft, Kunsthistorik und Kinderbücher schreiben leben.

You don’t understand the problem. The problem isn’t what you eat, how long you shower or which products you buy. The problem is we are converting fossile fuels that have been removed from the carbon cycle into CO2 and releasing it into the atmosphere where it’s going to be part of the carbon cycle again while increasing the total size of available carbon.

Now you may say “But if everyone does xy we release x% less carbon into the atmosphere!”, which is naive at best. A lower demand for fossile fuels does:

a) not correlate with a reduced production of fossile fuels(as production quotas are set mainly with the relevant countries income needs in mind and many producers are afraid of lower future demand and are thus trying to sell their product now before it becomes worthless), lower prices might even mean higher production if the state needs a fixed amount of income.

b) reduces the price, which in turn increases the demand again. To put it plainly, if all the people go together and restrict their use of carbon products as much as possible we might slash the oil price to a fraction of what it is right now which in turn would make it extremely attractive for third world countries to use fossile fuels to meet their energy demands.

What’s the point if countries in the west use 10% less oil, the price goes down and people in Africa and Asia use 30% more oil because it’s more affordable now? The only thing that would truly help is a world wide oil and coal production quota that over time gets reduced to zero. As long as we keep burning oil and coal, at an increasing rate I might add, individual contributions are meaningless because we don’t truly affect the oil production, we affect the oil price, making it cheaper and everyone should understand that cheaper oil prices are not a good thing for the climate.
