I guess the point is more about the leadership, who has the control, who are the majority, and not purism

NAS shared folders

now that is something that can easily make the system unstable, especially a laptop that will disconnect from the network at least ince in a while. my experience is with KDE, that if there's an unresponsive SMB mount 8n the filesystem, the whole KDE plasma environment fill freeze left and right, maybe with the exception of the window manager. but I have experienced this with other programs too. I suspect they all do filesystem accesses on the main thread and that's why when a directory read hangs, they can't do anything even handle clicksuntil the read times out.

its infuriating honestly, in a sense. of course, I have got all my money back lol. but it's like nobody is testing software with SMB shares, but I guess probably same goes for NFS, SSHFS or anything remote

I mean, things we have seen in the past does not inspire a lot of trust, but what is this?

anyone who thinks web tech is best practice on the fucking desktop should be expelled from the whole field

said ford would consume way too much gas and produce way too much noise, among other things. but what's the problem with the current installer? that it doesn't have curly corners, and that it has too many options which is confusing to those with no reading comprehension?

sure making a new installer from scratch, whats more with web tech, is definitely easier than fixing the existing solution thats almost perfect

no need to learn chinese whwn they can just pick a nice European language

I really don't want to switch US tech to a Chinese one. that country is really not any better, unless you see everyday mass surveillance and the loss of personal privacy as the way to go

that's good to know, I'll try this. for some reason firefox always tries to recommend facebook as the first thing when I start typing something similar, even though I left it 5+ years ago
