I don’t use either but IMO people are far too worried about bloat, it’s not some monster that’ll drag you down. Unless you’re extremely space constrained some extra packages on disk won’t make any difference. And even on the slimmest install there’ll be stuff you never use anyway.

I agree, only release schedule really matters, package managers are easy to learn… I don’t think the AUR is that special either, I’ve always found everything I needed no matter the distro, but maybe I don’t have exotic requirements.

I’m fine with most distros, though I don’t bother with the fast rolling ones anymore, I did for a few years but I don’t see the point for me. I’m happy with Fedora or an Ubuntu derivative and major updates are one command which is trouble free unless you’ve changed something in a non-standard way.

Now using Pop 24.04 as it’s on a stable base and I code COSMIC stuff, oh and they update kernel/nvidia/mesa on a regular basis (I use hybrid Gfx, Intel iGPU and NV offload). I’ll probably stick with PopOS or Fedora COSMIC spin/copr moving forward.

Use case for me is coding and gaming.

My fondest memory is checking the newsgroups for new posts every morning on one of the campus HP-UX terminals. Lesser fond memory is everyone creating personal home pages with animated UNDER CONSTRUCTION gifs everywhere.

Or erhmm, a girl having to come up with an explanation because her husband had run the finger command from their home country on her account and seen that she was logged in from my location after midnight.

Assumptions are assumptions. The server is written in Rust, the idea is to be flexible with control and the optional UI. It has a big focus on Enterprise and things that were difficult with YAST are easier with Agama, such as unattended installation and using Ansible. For a simpler use case you can boot it up on your headless server and connect to https://agama.local/ in a web browser and continue the installation.

Relying on is perhaps too strong, but I enjoy operations like sort getting faster and I don’t know how they’ve written cp but there’s a cp alternative using async IO with io_uring that’s almost twice as fast, I’m sure it’d interest people if such optimizations made it into coreutils.

Streaming, the new cable - but worse.

No. It’s one dude.

All Operating systems get more complex release by release, including the applications and all the different hardware platforms and peripherals. So there will be problems.

The “It just works” catchphrase came from Steve Jobs back in 2003. It didn’t exactly mean things were perfect but that regular people/non experts should not have to struggle with technical mumbo jumbo to use a computer.

Yes, Jeremy Brett was the best Holmes ever, his personal issues and depression augmented the role and he sunk so deeply into it that he sometimes referred to Sherlock the character as a real person.

Other portrayals shows healthy detectives full of vitality and charm but Jeremy Brett understood the brilliant but self abusive sometimes obsessive character with many layers to his complicted personality.

Yeah, my squad was maphopping in WvW and got a new Elon Gnashblade mail for each map change. Quickly filled up the mailbox.

Same, I’ve done C and C++ for several decades and I’ve spent too much time of that hunting obscure memory issus triggered by rare race conditions. No matter how hard we try to use safe patterns we are all too human. The most experienced C++ devs I know are the first to admit this.

In Rust once it compiles much less time is spent debugging and a whole big category of bugs are gone from the production code.

And C++ aient pretty but maybe that’s subjective.
