Someone never cruised before social media was invented and now suffers brain rot. A lot of people actually.
Stare out at a vast expanse of water and think about life, children.
“do it again, I wasn’t looking”

Just give up hope. It’s really not worth it.
I loved Pop!_OS as it made Debian/Ubuntu extremely usable as a daily driver. Finally I got fed up with outdated package bullshit coming from different angles and went to Rocky. Wish I did it sooner.
Appreciate System76, but they’ve dropped the ball hard and I don’t think it’s recoverable
If I were to fully elaborate, I’d be typing for hours, so I’ll sum up:
--require-virtualenv
. Multiple things can fuck up your ENV to make the python binaries point to system-wide, while your terminal will still show you as in a venv. Also why TF would package metadata files need to be executable? Bad practice, -1/10From there, it’s all extremely nit-picky and paranoid-fueled-- basically, none of the package managers I mentioned are conducive, in my eyes at least, to a secure and intuitive compute environment.
Unfortunately, there’s not much I can do about it except bang pots and pans and throw maintainers under buses when the issue that has been present for years rears it’s ugly head. Because they are the only ones who can change this, and pressure is the only thing that might motivate them to.
Nix is already beyond fucked because they actively dismiss the need for appropriate security measures to prevent supply chain attacks. There were multiple discussions about this over the years that appear to have succumbed to neglect.
I wouldn’t trust nix, just like I don’t trust pip, brew, or a whole plethora of other package managers and repositories. They are just too neglectful
Yeah and that makes sense. But I still choose to die on the hill of tabs or nothing. That’s just how anal I am about my code.
And I realize there are niche scenarios where tabs don’t make sense, but I could care less about those. Afaik, even assemblers support tabs. If you have tabs, I feel it is almost sacrilegious not to use them for indentation.
Yeah I liked him better then /s
I will fight tooth and nail with anyone who agrees with this decision. Not because Torvalds did it, but because fuck you use tabs you goddamn neanderthals
Not to be confused with the fallacy that these essentials are exclusively the product of exchanging money-- while you can pay for better health and better safety, there are also things you can do with little to no money to improve those for yourself, though the freedom to do so unfortunately is not default and financial security does empower an individual to better use what resources are available to them-- maybe not everyone can trivially access hiking trails, or be in the health for it, and even then they should have a good pair of shoes, a water bottle, and reliable mode of transportation to/fro the trails, which again not everyone has unfortunately.
Imo, the idealistic answer is to work to ensure everyone an essential baseline level that can reliably empower them to live as healthy and opportune of lives as is reasonably possible, while of course having in place infrastructure and accomodations to those less fortunate in health and/or opportunity. I’d like to think this is more than a utopian idea, and closer to a reality than one might originally think, or perhaps I was somewhat unique or grossly digressed from the status quo in pessimistically believing that we might be far from this being a reality. Perhaps my pessimism was also influenced by my financial stress at the time, among the other throes of life.
They’re actually not that unaffordable, I was surprised. Starts at like $600 for single person 3-day, which isn’t amazing but is pretty fair as vacation budgets go.
