To me systemd is fine, I am not really emotional at init systems. But on the other hand Linux is about choice and systemd kills that in some way because it does so much more than just starting services. GNOME is unusable without systemd, which makes it a no choice if you go into another rabbit hole. It’s kinda weird how deeply systemd is integrated in Linux these days. What I really dislike is that the log is in binary format by default which makes it necessary to deal with another tool to read logs. But well software changes, so do tools. But honestly the devs acted like dick heads sometimes, so I think most of the antipathy comes from their behavior and well yes MS now kinda pushing systemd because poettering works for them. I have fear that MS forces the systemd devs to implement things you cannot simply opt out of because it is so tightly integrated. Maybe copilot for writing systemd unit files would be nice though :P

Oh I don’t give a single fuck about the discussion, it’s technology, not politics. I am more upset that my company has some legacy repositories with master and the newer ones with a main branch. So everytime I want to create a MR with push options via command line I need to change main to master or visa versa.

Apple acts like a little kid who got robbed for its lollipop. They COULD still allow webapps with safari as backend for example or just let users decide if they want to use PWAs with whatever browser engine. Really ridiculous. I live in the eu and use voyager from the AppStore but this is really getting nuts from apple side.

The only way of interaction with edge I got is at my work computer which runs windows 10 😑 every time after an update the edge logo sits itself back into the taskbar until I remove it again. So annoying and and encroaching. For real fuck Microsoft.

First reviews I saw on YouTube are quite disappointing. They really ship it with a powerbank and even without it this thing weights about 600 grams. I cannot imagine wearing this thing all day and do work or eh … what the fuck are you gonna do with this besides games and watching videos??

I am in conflict about that move. But Macron at least tries to irritate Putin with his own definition of a „red line“, like „if you push to Odessa or Kyiv we will send troops“ maybe this is just the way of talking to Putin now, Russia always threaten Europe of nuclear strikes, their propaganda shitty tv shows is full of bombing Great Britain and sink the whole island, bombing or conquering Berlin again blah blah. They won’t because they can’t because of NATO and even without the US, Russia is not capable to conquer whole Europe, yet. So I think it is a good move in terms of threatening Putin with nato troops in Ukraine, because this is the only language he understands. On the other hand France is kinda safe when it comes to a conventional war, at least for a long time. Of course Germany is scared because it is not that far away, it is literally just Poland between Germany and russia and the German military is by far not able to fight a war against a well trained army with endless human resources.

What the fuck, how this can even be not a meme…

Is there something like a CM4 knockoff around? I mean compatible to the cm4. Context: I got a Turing pi 2 board lying around waiting to become my new k3s homelab cluster. They ship with adapters for the cm4, so I need somewhat a board that is pin and software compatible.

COVID hit me the second time at my companies christmas party. I almost forgot that it is not a regular flu and covid kindly reminded me of that. I was down and laying in bed for a whole week with fever. Took me two weeks to feel almost back to normal. Got cough 2 to 3 weeks after I recovered. Still a weird illness with even more weird symptoms like skin rashes at fingers and toes. Get well soon.

And stoßlüft everyday at least twice. We love fresh air!

I think I watched this one and also a German documentary. It even showed that elderly cats roam way less then younger ones. Pretty interesting.

Ich musste im leicht verschneiten Januar ein super unhandliches Paket 2km durch Berlin schleppen, weil der Fahrer ein Bastard ist, der einfach vorbeigefahren ist. Ich habe ihn sowohl vor meinem Haus gesehen als die Email kam, als auch am nächsten Tag als ich das beschissene Paket durch das arschkalte Berlin schleppen musste. Du Huso!

Das denke ich auch und ich bin schon im Dezember zu einer anderen Instanz gewechselt, weil die anderen Instanzen zwar die selben Probleme mit der Föderation hatten aber bei weitem nicht die selben Performanceprobleme über Wochen wie bei feddit.de Ich kenne nun die Infrastruktur nicht und hab mich im Detail auch nie mit Lemmy als Software beschäftigt aber es riecht ungemein nach Datenbank bzw dessen Last, was durch das nachholen der Föderierung natürlich nicht besser läuft. Wir dürfen natürlich auch nicht vergessen, dass feddit bzw Lemmy selbst von vielen Leuten in ihrer Freizeit mit eigenem Geld betrieben wird. Ergo kann ich genauso verstehen, dass man sich nicht in Unkosten stürzen will (und auch gar nicht soll) um sowas zu betreiben. Aber natürlich fällt auch die Akzeptanz zunehmend durch diese Ausfälle, was sich ja in Mitgliederschwund zeigen dürfte bzw Wechsel der Instanz. Fände es ziemlich gut wenn von den Admins durchaus nach Support durch die Community gefragt wird, weil sind wir ehrlich: Das Gros der Menschen hier sind ITler mit starkem FOSS Bezug und demnach auch häufig fähig zu helfen. Ich fände es genauso legitim nach Spenden zu fragen, um diesen klitzekleinen Teil der Freiheit im Internet zu stützen, also wenn es daran mündet mehr Performance einkaufen zu müssen, würde jeder Betrag helfen denke ich. Aber sind natürlich hier sehr steile Thesen, da von den Admins eher wenig Details kommen.

Zsh becomes really handy with oh my zsh and powerlevel10k theme

And for neovim I made the transition from vim with lazyvim: https://www.lazyvim.org/

All hail the mighty AUR ;)

FOR KARL!

Back in the days that was awesome. I had some kind of shitty Hotmail like German mail provider. 100MB storage, lots of ads. Google pushed into the right direction, almost unlimited storage, at first no ads. This was a huge step forward for email back then. Anyways I ditched Gmail and most of their services years ago, paying for mailbox.org for years, never looked back.

My system was built with the intention being a rock solid Linux gaming system. I also went with AMD (6700xt I think) and a cheap i5 12400F CPU. Never had any real issues running this thing with Arch (btw) til today. Thanks amd, thanks valve, thanks WINE devs.
