If you needed additional proof that fines are just the cost of their business model, this is it.

It’s absolutely fine, even if something is missing you can solve that with distrobox or similar tools.

Thanks for sharing this awesome resource <3

What. The. Actual. Fuck.

The nostalgia is strong in this one, I love these discoveries.

Actually really few instances of jerry rigging, but I do remember during my distro-hopping days where I used a binary gcc package to compile a more optimized binary of gcc. At the time, that felt pretty weird, but looking back I see why.

Honestly I got started due to curiosity and well, it turned out Linux was a rabbit hole and so down I went.

Oh sweet lord, I required therapy after installing that garbage once.

Sweet, maybe I can roll back all the way to windows XP now /s

That is a case I had not considered, thank you for the suggestion, and thank you for the correction concerning glibc.

My reason for not using Chimera as a daily driver is because I am a developer and there are still packages I need, that require libc still. My only advice would be to look through their packages and make sure you can find the things you need in there. If not, you need to research if the package you want is available through some other source and can run with musl instead of libc.

Not so much a niche distribution, but I would like to recommend Chimera Linux, because it combines musl with BSD userland.

For me personally I just hate that I do not know where to find configs, especially when using a dotfiles repo, it becomes harder than if they’re all available under a common path.

Alpine might be a contender.

Yq, like jq but for yaml. K9s, an awesome kubernetes client. Iamb, a nice tui matrix client. Irssi, an awesome irc client.

I used to use ansible and helm, but it is overkill for my case. Today I basically use a combo of markdown and bash scripts, the combination of them allows me to run the scripts straight from my IDE.

Really good writeup of a very interesting exploit.

I found their laptops to be potato quality and their support to be less than helpful tbh. I really wish it was different because I love the concept, but quality is not there yet.
