  • scratchandgame@lemmy.mltoLinux@lemmy.mlHow bad is Microsoft?

    I was curious what the Linux people think about Microsoft

    Basically two teams (applied to anyone that are "speaking", e.g writing propaganda blogs, comments, etc; they don't necessary need to have all of this properties, and they may have both teams' properties):

    Pro microsoft, pro systemd, pro bsod, pro administrator, pro "security" (privsec.dev pro microsoft edge), pro ms office, pro wine, anti apple/mac, anti (a)gpl, pro .net, pro powershell, .....

    anti microsoft, anti windows culture, anti systemd, anti msedge, anti powershell & cmd, anti conio.h, anti bsd/mit/isc, anti company sponsorship ....

    Team 3: BSD: receive donation from every entities and work on their clean operating system and software they give everyone for free without restriction; FreeBSD has been looked down by the anti-company anti-apple anti-permissive-licenses clowns

    Expressed by Theo de Raadt (OpenBSD): "Linux people do what they do because they hate Microsoft. We do what we do because we love Unix."

    Join team 3!

    And, you cannot make the world better by just destroy A company, Microsoft. You must destroy all of them, or don't destroy any, because it can only make the existing company to compete more fierce, and because OpenBSD needs donation from Google, Microsoft, and Meta to keep working on OpenSSH and other great software those companies need! They don't need clowns to look up nor look down them, like when those clown looks down FreeBSD because they received something from Apple that I cannot figure out what.




  • So why you convinced anyone to install a linux distro in the first place. But not asking him about whatever thing he will need later. Just install Windows.

    (His SSD might be slightly damaged (by some unnecessary writings) because of you.) temporary removed without due date

    You cannot kill windows and any other proprietary operating system by just switching their users to any currently "free" (as in no price to use and restrictive in modifications) linux distros. Don't try it again. Take off the tenses.






  • Programming is like solving math, I think?

    If I were you, I'd learn C instead. Rust is not used (much) on low level development. Currently C is not replaceable.

    I've heard the authors of C said: "C is not a big language, and it is not well served by a big book". But it is so powerful, simple, and fast.

    You already have a course on Rust, for "basic programming", so keep going on the course for a while. Learning any programming language can make your mind. And it is a course, so I'd expect the authors of the course to familiarize you with definitions.




  • Please explain to me how does this lead to Linux devs are mean

    I don't think. But the Linux advocators are very mean so that their user can't figure out things themselves and always want people to help them.

    and you need a CS degree to install a browser on Linux.

    (the last paragraph is the main content)

    YOU REALLY NEED!

    If not, why there are so many post on bad quality websites like itsfoss, tecmint, etc.. and they have to taught you to use your package manager! They have to a bunch of apt-get install EEEEEEEEEEEEE dnf install AAAAAAAAAA and sudo .... .... ......

    (while I want apk, doas, ...)

    They expect Linux users to be a completely brainless person that will do everything they are told. Those Linux users learn things hardly with this background. So a CS degree is required.

    Do you see that such Linux user always complain about "lack of documentation" when they "try" BSDs? Even FreeBSD (they have a forum)?? The documentation of programs and software doesn't hold your hand and teach you on installing something. This effectively render such Linux user unusable, hang.


  • This is why there will never be a “year of the Linux desktop”

    They dislike this comment just because of this. This statement is correct.

    Linux kernel's code quality is not comparable to any BSD's kernel. GNU userland is not as clean as BSD's userland so Chimera Linux existed.

    because it’s developers insist on doing everything “the hard way”

    true, true

    I'm so lucky that WINE and virtualbox is so hard on "newbie distros" that I would never use windows application on linux.

    When I switch to BSD I always read man pages and find the docs to resolve my problems. Never did that on Linux.

    In an ideal OS you never have to learn to do things the hard way because the easy way works just as well without starting a new career in Linux programming.

    Do you think FreeBSD and OpenBSD already met this requirement :)?



  • Years ago some Linux howtos or Linux distributions during their installation recommended to have several different partitions (I believe some of the BDSs like OpenBSD still offer such an option during installation)

    There are advantages of having multiple partitions for multiple mount points.

    OpenBSD can do partitioning for you, and it is not recommended to use a huge single root partition. If you can't do partitioning, use the default layout.

    One advantage of that for /home is that you can have different mount options like noexec for preventing the execution of files inside your home directory which can be a good security measure.

    If you never do development.

    Anyone just having / and /home in separate partition are actually windows users, or not sysadmin.




  • Can I partition /home directory in a different drive and still fuction?

    Only windows can't. Partitioning is recommended.

    Best way to partition my / and /home directories?

    You should also partition /usr, /var, /opt (if you use) and /usr/local (this hierarchy is not much used on Linux, keep it small). This gain you security and stability (do your own research if you are going to complain here).

    On BSD the kernel is located on / so / should be at most 1G. On Linux the kernel is located on /boot and /boot is usually 500M, but there isn't a reason to have a huge / partition when you have partitioned /usr, /var, and /home

    I simply want to seperate my / and /home without anything extra. How would I best go about that?

    This is ambiguous.

    The guy who use a huge single root partition (with a /home) are actually windows' user. / is C: and /home is D:
