It really is the best tool that comes to mind if you want to go through a very large library with minimal manual work.

It’s a peer to peer network, it was quite popular in the first years of 2000.

I’ll wait for the cancer to eventually kill me while walking in the woods. I’ll leave it written that you offered yourself to go find my body and carry it to the cemetery.

So what?

Should they support X11 forever despite the fact that even the maintainers of X11 are barely maintaining X11?

Are they forcing you to do anything?

A piece of software using another piece of software does not mean forcing anything on anyone.

Moreover, KDE runs on X11 and I don’t know of any distribution which does not provide Xorg in their repositories.

Common sense now, that is thousands of years after they were written.

I do not disagree with either of you, I am not christian but I mostly appreciate and abide by the ten commandments. I doubt I would if our morals were not forged over those commandments over the past 2000 years.

Works on my desktop, much better than X. What problems do you have with wayland?

Forced by who exactly?

Fedora recommends using the software center rather than and in order to get more reliable updates.

You’re welcome to work on maintaining something more functional, rather than criticize someone who just died for no real reason.

Linus Torvalds

Not exactly, but something along those lines.

We are talking about a guy still using mailing lists and patch files to conduct development on one of the largest codebases in the world, not exactly someone who jumps on any new shiny thing just to sound smart.

For every bug the AI does not find and I have to spend 1 hour to realize the AI is not able to find and then spend 2 hours to identify myself, there are 10 bugs the AI finds in a couple minutes.

I can gladly spend the extra time when it doesn’t work.

Still got an X201 somewhere. That thing learned me Linux, got me through school and found me a good job at a time when all I had was a backpack and that computer.

Some day I shall switch it on and update it.

I’m confused by this social rule, never heard of it but doesn’t really make too much sense when applied to a couple number.

10 -> 12 16 -> 15 20 -> 17 30 -> 22 50 -> 32

It only appears to work on the 14 years old case.

Such decisions are taken by adults, not by minors. Adults discuss their opinions and work out what is the consensus on a certain topic. Then adults get together and organize to change laws in such a way as to reflect that consensus.

“With someone their age” is key.

No, I wrote quite a few more things in my reply.

Plenty countries place the age of consent at 15 years.

I get why you consider this pedophilia, but it’s a bit iffy in my book. 14 years old is just one year younger than what many countries do not consider pedophilia.

Indeed we all agree that raping an adolescent will most likely mark them for life.

On the voluntary side it is a bit different to evaluate. I definitely do not think everyone over 14 should immediately take part in sex.

However I see nothing wrong with a 14 years old having sex with someone their age. On the other hand, having sex with someone older is not something I’d always condemn, but I would do that in many occasions. That is why in most cases the laws regarding age of consent strongly defend the minor.

I often find computers in trash, a stick of ram here an HDD there. Didn’t spend a euro on my server.

I remember suse making quite a few back in the days, some were pretty nice.

I don’t remember if I did, I probably did. But I definitely dd’d the wrong drive at some point.

To be fair, I prefer a GUI for anything that touches partitions: it’s much easier not to fuck it up.

Thank you, you reassured me quite a bit. I’ll have a good read of the manual.

It is not really a build server, it’s a compute server. I’ll have users installing hundreds of different software packages, most of them using incompatible libraries and thus I was thinking of using Nix. Alternatives would be LMOD, which however requires the administrator to install very single piece of software, which… We don’t really have a dedicated system administrator and I don’t really want to go through the compilation instructions of every single piece of software we use. Alternatively everyone could compile their own software or install it through something like conda, but that eats up a lot of storage space since every library would be duplicated across users.
