I had a lot of issues on silverblue using vscodium as a flatpak, I think I will try installing it in a distrobox instead.
if you program using vscodium, do you install a separate vscodium in every distrobox?
Hm, ok, so the official definition is: “It is characterized by loosely coupled systems that interoperate in a manner that is secure, resilient, manageable, sustainable, and observable.”
Nethack works well on Linux too.
What exactly does “cloud native” mean? I’ve used Silverblue and I get the immutability etc, but what is the definition of "cloud native?
How do you feel about books by Alexandre Dumas? They are from long before AI. But… Dumas had a collaborator called Maquet, who came up with plots and did a big part of the writing. He was an ok writer, but not as good as Dumas. So their collaboration was like this: Dumas paid Maquet to produce quantities of ok stories for him. Then Dumas edited them to add his brilliant language and ideas, and Dumas got to take all the credit and glory.
What kind of dirty politics are we talking about here? I remember when Arch switched, the stated reasons from the devs was that their old init system was bad and nobody wanted to maintain it, for example.
I agree. The only time a strong vision is a problem is if there are no options. But now, the people who don’t want gnome can easily just use something else. I want the gnome devs to do their thing, and as long as I enjoy using gnome I will use it.
It is sort of an anachronism. I’m not saying that we don’t need textual interfaces, but emulating a terminal from the 70’s is not the only way. Plan9 had textual interfaces without the need for an emulated terminal.
Some evenings, when a piece of code I wrote compiles on the first try and it all seems so straightforward and simple, I feel blessed by the Spirit of the Machine.
One time I had a dream in which OpenBSD had the same level of polish and user friendliness as Fedora or Mint, and were experimenting with some plan9 features. When I woke up and realized it wasn’t true, I was genuinely sad for a while.
In these corporate times we can stay free, share the code, and help our neighbors. Together we can share the joyous spirit of friendship, hacking, and arguing endlessly over which distro is best. In conclusion, Linux provides us with many good things, and should be celebrated.
You used Linux two years before it was released?
I’m interested in reading more about coding java without an IDE, what’s your usual workflow? Do you use maven or gradle or something else? Are there solutions or scripts you use to make up for some functionality of an IDE?
In the same vein, everyone should sew their own clothes, plant and harvest their own food, learn how to medically treat their own injuries, etc?
I’ve noticed a pattern in distrohopping among my linux using friends. Many started with ubuntu back in the day, then switched to a less preconfigured distro like arch, gentoo, etc. You learn a lot being forced to tinker and fix things. But after that, many seem to have landed on distros of the debian or fedora kind, because they want to get actual work done and you can make any distro do almost anything anyway.
I don’t know about morality, but my view is that it’s part of the deal with free software: users can do what they want with it. If you willingly make your software free, that’s what you signed up for. In return, the devs have no obligations to listen to users or do anything they don’t want. If they only want to fix bugs in the flatpak, fine, that’s their choice. It’s their software, we’re all free to work on or use it as we want.
If I were you I would read his actual words and decide for yourself, don’t trust people online.
