I remember seeing that airplane on the VHS all the time at the video store

I want a sysv init + DJB daemontools setup.

Whiteness has directly been used as an oppressive force on a global scale for as long as been an identifiable thing. You can’t say the same about any other color or race.

As long as people in large numbers are actively unifying behind the flag of whiteness and using it to dominate others, I think it’s acceptable to prejudge members of that group.

This is why decent white people should be doing everything they can’t to stop this use of whiteness.

I’m trans, if a large percentage of trans people were unifying behind and using transness to consolidate power to dominate and exploit cis people (in a make believe world where there’s enough trans people to do this), I’d expect cis people to have an inherent distrust of trans people.

Why do Windows users feel entitled to the free labor of others.

I don’t think open source developers should feel obligated to chase after “normal users”, they should just make great software. Linux is arguably the most successful OS that has ever existed, if it’s not dominant in one specific shrinking sector is that the worst thing in the world?

Linux (+ everything needed for a desktop) has been a great desktop system for 20+ years, most difficulties aren’t the fault of Linux, they’re the fault of vendors failing to support and/or Microsoft throwing up barriers to competition.

Anti-anarchist pretty much think

• Anarchy = chaos

This is heavily promoted by mainstream media and language

• Anarchists are pacifist

Many people seem unable to comprehend how a community might defend itself without a standing military and so assume we must be unwilling to defend ourselves.

• Nothing can be accomplished without coercion

Because most of us have grown up within strict hierarchies coerced to do things we don’t want, we have trouble imagining any other way.

• Everyone is inherently a selfish asshole

This is probably projection in most cases

Ya, sucks when Tailwind goes out of style and now have to learn CSS again.

You keep my init system (and resolver, and timekeeper, and task scheduler, and container manager, and …) out your f**king mouth!

NixOS sounds like a way to avoid learning Linux by learning an abstraction.
