Open source dev, kernel, llvm, jvm, bunch of other shit.

Never came up with anything as bad as systemd.

Don’t talk shit if you don’t know, been doing software since the internet was dialup.

I’ve worked with both coreaudio and launchd.

They weren’t architected like trash, and actually did their jobs well.

If systemd was just like launchd that would be awesome, it’s not, then it took over half the linux userspace, badly.

No, nobody forces you to use emacs at gunpoint.

Not much, I have services that run both externally and only over wg.

Only issue with wg is sometimes I have to shut it off for things like multicastdns, or otherwise that try to look around the network or wifi.

To be fair, it was a controversial feature at the time, some people said it actually encouraged the development of btrfs as an alternative.

Man I’ve gotten old, gotten stuck in debian with lxc containers (Ubuntu for work, arch for fun) underneath.

Warm and loving on the outside, kinky as fuck behind closed doors.

Bdsm, but real careful about the safe word.

Gentoo: no limits.

Nix is a brothel.

Just order off the menu.

I miss years ago when you could run full KDE 3 on x11 and basically go in and out of a near Linux environment.

Now I only use it as a terminal because the power management is better.

Think it’s been maintenance, but the real difference is packages aren’t ancient like they used to be, they’re mostly up to date.

Stuff like the desktop are basically generic compared to Ubuntu’s customization, but they moved to wayland, pipewire, all that stuff which is violent radical by past debian standards.

New users probably should learn systemd rather than startup scripts.

Debian is caught up or even past Ubuntu nowadays, shits flipped fr, yo.

Get a VPS, wire guard and forward the socket to your home server.

Bare metal is stupid expensive because it’s near impossible to administer for them, all you need is a static ip really.

Alternately use a dyndns service and poke holes in your home firewall.

Actually it’s both, there’s polling with a timeout interrupt if an incoming urb hasn’t been processed quickly.

This way you can take them in batches at regular intervals.

Know some router platforms that used this and vfio to implement dpdk switching and routing under a Linux control plane.

Brilliant guys worked on that, think some of the smartnics like Amazon and oracles use it too.

Worked with the guy, he was a true kernel monster.

They have deals on fire extinguishers too.
