@pernia yeah she's been a prominent figure in the alpine scene basically forever, the taint of both her and devault combined with the things that have been explained to me about how dysfunctionally the project is run lead me to conclude that anyone who willingly and knowingly runs alpine deserves everything they get
@pernia there's a part of me which is considering chimera linux ngl but at that point I might as well throw the baby out with the bathwater and stop using linux
@jorin it's the difference between recognizing them for what they are and accidentally being groomed into being a soyteen or some equally horrifying outcome
@sun@pernia@georgia@whiteline@shrimp systemd is basically just the Linux equivalent of the Mach bootstrap server + launchd, it serves to solve a problem for the time being but in time will probably get replaced by something even more heterodox and controversial (my sights are set on eBPF for this)
@t@lewdthewides yeah democrats are our labour essentially, "owning the libs" means anyone who has ideas to the left of them on anything (i.e. who isn't either a milquetoast Tory or a right wing extremist, depending on who is saying it)
@t@lewdthewides it's just incredibly funny to me, I can't even take any of it seriously at all re: the banner, I actually can see how it would be construed as transphobic by those who aren't familiar with the concept known as self deprecating humor re: anarchocapitalism, the fact that they looked at the meme cats and instantly decided I was one without *any* second thought means they're doing exactly what they're supposed to, which is filter out those who judge only based on superficial appearances
@lewdthewides@t Yeah, half joke really. I am libright and did historically have affinities with ancap types but nowadays it's mostly a cute reminder of times past.
@t@lewdthewides all good :) I think in general reasonable people can engage with each other regardless of what political or ideological priors they have going in, but the internet in general and social media in particular is almost completely optimized for turning reasonable people into unreasonable consumers of controversial content because that's what drives views and by proxy ad revenue (thankfully less of a problem here than some other places, but it can be difficult to deprogram someone who already comes into here with that mindset for better or worse)
