Speaking of fragile environments, what the hell is going on with the absolute dependency on python...?
I mean, I'm as reluctant to upgrade my system's python version as libc's.
How to break at least half of your system:
1. python3 --version
Python 3.8.10
2. rm -f /usr/bin/python3
3. ln -s /usr/bin/python3.13 /usr/bin/python3
And good luck opening most of the UI utilities and some of the terminal-based ones.
wtf... While everyone's barking at systemd, python quietly crawls in and claims the system's flexibility for itself w/o any resistance.
I imagine that's one of the aspects making NixOS a resilient solution...12 -
WTF why is systemd now also pulling in tigerVNC???
This fucking monster started out as a replacement for the ancient init process and now it sucks up more and more of the OS for no fucking reason at all!
Why on earth is noone stopping these cunts?
How is it a good idea to make the whole operating system dependent on the all-encompassing power fantasy of some arrogant twats?5
