For perspective, that’s like 6 years of full-time employment. I am equal parts impressed and horrified.

At the very least, that game has cost you over USD 87,000 in those six years in terms of money not earned. (assuming 12,000 hours of minimum wage work).

Holy shit dude. At 8 hours a day, that’s over 3 years of full time play! How do you support yourself?

7 Days to Die. It’s an incredibly underrated game. I’d describe it as Minecraft, but for adults.

What does that mean?

Are you talking about about the lack of games on Linux? Because that makes no sense. Check out protondb.com

And if your GPU is still only lukewarm, Stable Diffusion runs better in Linux than Windows.

You should have a look at Sebastian Lague’s programming videos on Youtube. He models various things (eg: predator/prey/ant colonies, slime growth) using a few very simple rules. They’re just beautiful. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-iSQQgOd1A

Indeed, it seems I was wrong. However, I’ve just had a look at the “Gnome without systemd project” for Gentoo. The fact it is an entire project kinda supports my point.

I mean, just have a look at that project and how much effort it takes to run Gnome without systemd. It would almost be easier to install LFS.

Will do, cheers!

Awesome, cheers. Really appreciate it.

Right, you’ve already convinced me. How and where do I start? Can you recommend some links/resources please?

Yeah, I was having a whinge about it here the other day. Just a sec while I dig up the corpse…

Systemd* removes choice*, and it was designed to do so. That is why there is so much anger. It is bad software design, by design. It flies in the face of the core linux principles, all in the name of homogenising the linux ecosystem, and you know exactly which big corporations benefit from that.

The simple fact is: today, if I want to run a mainstream distro without Systemd, I cannot. Its cancerous tentacles run so deep that decoupling it from a mainstream distro, and keeping it decoupled, is a full time job.

Instead I have no choice but to run a smaller, less featured, less secure and less funded alternative. Good luck getting Gnome to work without systemd.

Fuck you Redhat/IBM and your proxy evil-doer Lennart.

But if you want to read more about how why others hate systemd, there’s no shortage of material:

Right, that’s it. I’m going back to Reddit

I don’t think it’s a ‘culture’; it’s not something people choose to do. There’s just a lot people out there who aren’t as familiar with English as you.

This. And people commenting “This.”

Nice try, American person.

I’m a linux developer of 25+ years and I’m permanently banned from /r/linux because I dared criticize systemd.

My answer is therefore: Power-tripping mods. Where mods are required, ensure the community has the ability to oust them.

My ex was a hoe hoe person.

I concur.
