@moffintosh And yes, Soviet Union was also doing bussiness with Hitler, trains carrying commodities were moving till the very invasion, the worst part is that Germany might not have enough resources to start the invasion had this not been happening. SU was providing training grounds to German pilots at Lipetsk air base. Soviet Union was extraditing Jews to the Nazi Germany to their imminent death, there is so much more than M-R pact. Pinning it on the West is wrong on so many levels.

@moffintosh Being critical of the West is okay, but why whitewash Stalin — he was just as much a piece of shit as Hitler was. The top arguments are debatable, yet, German–Soviet Boundary and Friendship Treaty is very real. Did anyone else have a friendship treaty with the Nazis? The article in Pravda in which Stalin is very protective of Hitler is also very real. Talking about defending someone from Hitler in this light is just laughable — fighting over spheres of influence isn't protecting.

@yukiame @Beef They are going to get renamed to Rumpelstiltskin soon and Till would have to tear himself in two by the leg after messing with childish girls who believed that after being chosen for a private afterparty they would get shown a pony instead of getting drunk and getting laid.

@Sabex @yukiame @Helgi Sure! That last sentence was meant to make my post not look like I'm suggesting you to give up on Slackware, but I still failed 😅
I mean even if Patrick goes nuts there are others to pick up the ball. The demand for staying away from it is definitely there.
I even manage to get by not having pulseaudio in my system or that new thing they came up with as a replacement — might not be that bad, I just don't need it. Have to use apulse for Firefox, everything else works as is.

@Sabex @yukiame @Helgi There are lots of distros that don't use systemd, there are even such Debian and Arch forks. I've never used Slackware properly, but I think you'll find Void appealing — that is what I use and it uses runit by default, I think you can even replace it with other init (dinit and whatnots).
There definitely are alternatives moving in the opposite direction — away from systemd.

Sway has this thing called scratchpad — it's where you have stuff that you want to have running, but don't have proper place for its windows in your current layout, so they live in this limbo with their windows hidden, but you can always bring them back if you want to.
Sway wiki has a nice list of software that works well with it: github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Us

@theorytoe That's exactly what these posts look like with media.webm.enabled=false
No need to attach the actual file 😂

@AmishSuperModel A bold decision! Maybe we can all make such one day… 😌

@Wilbur72@mastodon.social You probably just forgot about it, happens to me all the time: like that loan I had got — I have no recollection of it. I don't even remember what I've spent the money on to be honest 😅

@haverholm@imaginair.es Sounds right! What about Eiffel 65 and Level 42 though?

@oldrawgabbit This must be why privacy-respecting devices have those hardware switches 😏

@xmoo Windows provides great in-the-box experience though! Like when it's run in VirtualBox.
For even better results you can go for so called barebox experience, when the installation media stays in the real box 🤣
