  • The one thing manjaro had going for it was it was easy install arch. Now we have endeavor, garuda, cachy, and several other easy install arch. Including archinstall. Who all follow vanilla arch much closer, not introducing major breaking changes. There’s literally no good reason to still use manjaro.

    That said the servo aur is currently broken under catchy. Unable to update for the last couple of weeks. But that’s been my only hiccup. And a negligible one at that.


  • There are strong correlation between /pol and Epstein. And it’s long been fascist/authoritarian to accuse outgroups of the crimes you commit so that if and when your crimes are revealed. It’s easier for campist to dismiss them as “when our side does it, the victims deserved it actually”.

    I would have a harder time believing Epstein and Q had no connection. That’s way way to many specific coincidences.


  • And even then. Mp3 first in this day and age?! As an individual or a company that’s just bananas. MP3 as a fallback or baseline sure. As a feature to advertise or sell your service on. Clown show. Sure it’s a 30ish year old codec who’s patents have expired. But it’s also a 30 year old codec using ancient expired patents.

    There’s much newer patented and libre codes that can provide similar quality at half the data rate. Allowing you to serve twice the listeners with the same resources.


  • Init scripts are just scripts. Technically, they don’t introduce any unique vulnerabilities of their own. Just the flaws in the shell itself or server binaries. A poorly written script absolutely can and will still fuck your day up.

    SystemD is a program. Which could introduce its own unique buffer overflows or use after free opportunities. I’ve not heard of any. But its possible. However, its standard set of interfaces and systems make the risks of writing your own bad scripts or just using other people’s random bad scripts like we used to much less an issue.


  • Technically, sysv everything was just a file full of instructions for the shell to parse and initialize. Human readable “technically”. It was simple and light weight. SystemD is a bit heavier and more complex as a system service binary. But that load and complexity is generally offset by added features that are extremely nice to have. Providing much more standardized targets and configuration iirc.

    I had to search and dig trying to figure out how to set up services properly for my distro, back in the 90s. And when/how to start/restart them. There wasn’t one way to do it all. SysD made it all much more standard, simple, and clear. It’s biggest sin, is that it’s one more binary attack surface that might be exploited.

    Banjo chill a bit. You’re heavy reaching here. VH said nothing about democracy. Also, you can have democratic communism (not effectively under Leninist) just as democratic capitalism is also technically possible. (just not effectively controlled by fascist capitalists) Honestly this is kind of the point of the meme.

    Capitalism has no causation of democracy. They’re totally unrelated.
