Tegus are like big, smooth, grumpy dogs. I love em

now find something that stops it from reading Bluetooth and other RF signals. I wonder if anyone has acquired one for security research

This is just rage-engagement bait.

This game is an incredible Story Generator, like Dwarf Fortress, Rimworld, and Kenshi. It’s very easy to lose hours watching tragedies and triumphs play out

When publicly stating alignment with Israel or Palestine, you have to choose if you want to be hated by the government, or the actual people on the street.

Talk about games with wasted potential… I was so hyped for this game and it’s just unplayable

hey-oooo!

This thread is a self doxxing minefield

How safe would you feel buying jewels from a state known to arm twist billionaires for their assets? see: wildberries CEO for recent example

Good to know, I honestly have never tried to use Debian (not counting Ubuntu occasionally for work)

Your options are limited significantly if you want to avoid it, but yes, there are options. I use a steam deck primarily and while I can re install the OS, it’s a significant amount of fiddling for a worse experience.

My issue with systemd is not that it’s ‘hard to use’ or anything. My issue is that it’s getting harder to avoid as time goes on.

I understand that you personally are fine with it, but this is apparently a trigger for me, so please accept my apology in advance for offering commentary.

• if you don’t like it, you can use something else:

This is only really true for desktop PC hobbyists. SteamOS is responsible for a huge spike of Linux usage recently and that is Systemd-only. it’s true that you can install something else but it’ll be a significantly worse user experience. This is the case for basically any handheld Linux device, and all corporate investment is going to systemd based distros.

• if systemd starts to get bad, less people will use it:

The alternatives are less polished and switching distros is a relatively costly proposition if you are not a hobbyist (in terms of opportunity cost and time spent without a functional computer). Handheld devices such as the steam deck are much less flexible as well.

Arch, Fedora, Debian/Ubuntu all use systemd. SteamOS/CachyOS are based off Arch. Bazzite is Fedora-based.

If you use Linux for gaming, you are not going to have a good time avoiding systemd. It’s certainly true that some distributions don’t use it, but their market share is limited.

It seems dismissive to ignore the trends and investment in the ecosystem going towards systemd based distributions.
