Yup. I’m Bo7a.

I always trust any group where the ‘main thing’ that will get you kicked out is … telling the truth.
That is one heck of a reply. Thank you kindly for your time.
I had a look around and none of my weird little pocket scripts interact directly with X anymore.
And it looks like an easy decision to reverse with just a session swap, so why not.
Thanks for the push.
There will be enough people asking this as a joke, but I am very serious. Is it actually time to move on from X11 for everyone?
I have been using linux since a couple months after Linus put the first bits of code on an ftp. I have been mainlining it since 1999 and it has been my entire career since 2009.
I have been through all the iterations. The svsV’s, the runits, the systemd’s. And while I don’t enjoy a ton of change I did get over it for all of these and still feel ‘at home’.
But for wayland? I have never even tried. I just see everyone saying you are fucked if you have X or Y hardware, or if you require A or B legacy workflows.
Is NOW really the time for old codgers to give it a serious go?

Atheist here. Married a Christian who was into missions, taught Sunday school, etc…
Love is love and we don’t choose who we fall in love with.
I never once tried to convert her, or call out her beliefs. But over time (she was from a small religious (mennonite) town) she came to see on her own how the indoctrination was just a cover for a lot of evil shit that went down in the church, and in its name.
She is no longer Christian, and veers towards agnosticism, but when pressed would say she is now more aligned with animism, or the idea that nature is the only ‘face’ of a god that is not a conscious being, but is just the culmination of all the processes in nature.
I am so hardcore. Like Quickdraw McGraw. Fuck what you heard, you ain’t heard this before.

You are wrong.
Fair enough. I honestly didn’t mean this as an insult. I have seen the same type of review from people who join teams that I’m on when they get told about ansible.
It certainly isn’t perfect. And there was a period of time about 5 years ago where a lot of change was happening at once.
Thanks for sharing your opinion
Same question. But with 100s of playbooks, and thousands of servers. This feels like someone had a bad experience with their first 30 minutes of ansible and gave up before looking at the command reference.
As I mentioned to all of my lgbt US friends… The Canadian border is largely undefended and if you decide to cross in the forest, somebody will probably pick you up and feed you.
We don’t hate Americans. We hate fascists.
If you are fleeing fascism, you are unlikely to be a fascist, therefore you will be welcomed.

Hah! Fair jab. In my defense that title was just a blown up way to attempt to keep me onboard without a raise. Being director of IT in a startup with only one IT person is definitely not filled with director-level tasks. That title, and the bullshit that came with it, are a big part of why I left.
Nice try, troll. I’m posting here for the real humans. Not to convince you of anything.
edit to add: only one of us came into a thread espousing their views without being prompted. Maybe work on that before accusing others.
Finally, some criticism that makes sense! I will be sure to start feeding the foxes too. We already feed the birds, squirrels, chipmunks, marmots, bunnies, raccoons, stray cats, fish, black flies, and mosquitoes (with varying levels of ‘on purpose’).
What is one more species?
Seriously - This cruel bastard spends $500(cad) per month on feeding wildlife in the winter. What a piece of shit. And those raccoon houses we built so they’d be happy further from the house and stop tearing up our insulation? TORTURE FACILITIES filled with soft straw, eggs, fruit, and cat food.
Yes! Your deeply intellectual take based on my comparison of chickens shitting and screaming to how IT managers act is surely correct about how I live my life, and how those chickens live.
Fun fact - Our chickens live freely in the forest during the day, and have a nice safe place to sleep at night. We don’t force them to come home, but they know what lives out in the forest and choose to come back to where they are safe and have friends.
Oh and we don’t eat them. But if you wanna call pulling their non-viable eggs out from wherever they left them today violence then I have a few bridges to sell you in manhattan.
My CV looks something like:
Chickens might shit everywhere, scream constantly, and flap their wings just to get attention, much like managers. But they can’t make you polish that shit into a product to sell. And if one gets out of line you can just eat them.
Very interesting insights. Thank you for sharing!
