@kirby@adiz every once in a while I go on some threads and I see someone mention BSD. whenever I ask why I should use BSD over GNU/Linux some guy in a Punisher t-shirt starts to lecture me about the philosophy of Lionel Richie and says some non-sequitur about systemd. Listen man I have a D ready for you fucking bitch. I don't give a fuck about your liberal sociology I just want steam to work on my computer I want my wi-fi to work. I'm always work "BSD is a complete operating system. It doesn't use distros like Linux" and then I look at the fucking piles of BSD DISTROS online FreeBSD OpenBSD NetBSD TrueOS DragonflyBSD and wow they ALL SUCK and they're ALL DISTROS :D
and these are just the online BSD people once you get into real life it's even worse. I go to the BSD conference it looks like a fucking starbucks it's all rich millennials and baby boomers sitting at their fucking Macbook Pros jacking themselves off about how they run a BSD OS on their fucking Apple Shittalk YOU AREN'T A PRO HACKER FOR RUNNING MACOS YOU FUCKING DIPSHIT NOBODY CARES INSTALL GENTOO
and at the fucking BSD conference this guy comes up George or some shit it's that fucking eggman looking guy who was in every BSD shilling video. it's like it's his full time job to tell people to run FreeBSD. he doesn't even run fucking FreeBSD because in every video I see he is sitting on a Macbook Pro running MacOS. Wow you run your own operating system in a virtual machine only it must be so great right? He's always mumbling about how he made the fucking network stack from MacOS gee I wonder how much you got paid for that bud oh yeah fucking nothing great job buddy happy for you. At least you got Apple to give you some of the code they added right? wait wrong you didn't because you use a CUCK LICENSE. Billionaires are making money off of over 20 years of this guy's fucking work he's got nothing in return, he's got no source code. Imagine what it's like working on a free os for decades just for it to be used to spy on users and make billionaires more money. Imagine being proud of this.
BSD is a CUCK operating system and running it is an embarrassment.
@noah@MoeBritannica may I suggest https://kakoune.org/ it's a very well thought-out modal text editor (so like vim), which I do think is a superior mode of text editing, but the main selling point to me has been that it's useful out of the box. just like vim, it comes with bajilion syntax plugins but is still merely a text editor (not ide). however, it has a helpful UI full of fuzzy completions and hints and doesn't make you learn a command language by design. the only thing to watch out for is the terrible default colorscheme. I guess the built-in docs are also somewhat hard to use since I tend to ripgrep through /usr/share/kak/doc instead
@MoeBritannica fucking hell I don't even watch this bitch but checked a stream to compare and now I can't unpicture mabel falling on hard times after moving for college and blowing her savings on overpriced led lights accessories, getting into the hustle of making men sweaty and bothered on the internet
@mint@meso I hope he manages to make this not funny, otherwise it's about to become a speedrun target but my gut tells me he'll just not really do it or only end up unblocking like 5 guys
