This website is for hackers, not "geek squad". I am very disappointed that something of such low quality could manage to be linked on one of the first few pages of this site.
- Klonoar 2y agoYou are commenting on a site that effectively represents the VC-centric startup world, not the /.-esque hacker world of yesterday. That it uses the term “hacker” in its name doesn’t make it Linux-central.
- devops99 2y agoI agree with you 100% and yes I left that part out. So yeah: NOT GEEK SQUAD
- itvision 2y agoYou mean a page without 30MB of JavaScript dependencies, 50MB of images, 10MB of fonts and not sucking all your private data is "low quality". Yeah, you're absolutely right, I'm going for quality content, not shiny crap.
- devops99 2y agoThe content is total garbage, which is where the problem ultimately lies.
- itvision 2y agoThe garbage is a result of me using Linux for almost 30 years and also being an active Linux maintainer. I can vouch for every word in the article except maybe the last section but this discussion alone speaks for itself, so even that part is not totally wrong. Here in this discussion we've got all the falsehoods that I've heard a billion times already: * It works for me it must work for everyone else (never mind other people have different hardware and use different software) * I've not had any issues it's all made up (the same) * I can show this, that and that exception (yeah, exceptions normally prove the rule). Have fun with a no-os. I mean your specific distro version with a specific set of libraries and applications that you're using today that is not compatible with anything else under the sun.
