I don't care about an optional text field and will continue to use systemd because it is useful to me.

>>108434381hi Dylan
>>108434527there is a theory saying Dylan M. Taylor is a synthetic large language model context protocol-based agent. you just need to give a tool compatible large language model like IBM Granite4:1b a set of interfaces to chat and perform actions in github through the account using the official API.The great globohomo projected the request would receive global backlash. You just deploy said agent to send the merge request and your guy in the other end of the line would authorize the merge.That kid Pottering probably doesn't give a shit anymore.
>>108434724Pottering is in on it, he founded a startup to profit off age verification by detecting any modifications to the OS

>>108434158They won't do shit, because he, along with all of systemd and redhat, are only a symptop of the larger problem at hand: complancecy.

>>108438639This. This entire situation is a Microsoft Trojan horse for Linux. The next fucking day that the microsoft employee let this massive turd on systemDemon microcock announced that they were listening to users and were going to revert their retarded changes on windows 11. NOT A FUCKING COINCIDENCE.
>>108434158There is no one supervillain in this scenario. Most distros adopted systemd in a similar timeframe under zero pressure. There was no shortage of people trying to defend this takeover either, even though no one could provide a clear explanation of what the bloated monolothic piece of shit actually does. We are surrounded by glowniggers, fagman employees, and complacent people who sneer at anyone who don't just go with the flow.

This is all masterminded by microsoft, facebook adn google but not for the reasons you thinkThey want universal ID checks at the OS systems so websites can easily verify you're human under threat of law if you lie so websites like Twitter, Reddit and Facebook and others remain free from AI chatbot spam.Those websites are their top places to pull data to train their models and now they're a shitfest full of LLM spam, they can't feed it back to their AIs.With an ID check they can verify everyone interacting there is human and continue getting real human interactions to pull data for their models.

So, tell me where are we supposed to go? Because I'm not wrecking my entire workflow to migrate to some bullshit hobbyist distro that's not meant for daily use.
FOSS projects should not comply simply because big tech opposes any form of "sideloading." Zuckercuck and all those guys need to rein in their users on their platform, that isn't the job of an OS. This also has nothing to do with privacy and safety because the government doesn't prevent big tech from reselling user information either.

>>108440873There's a lot of projecting in that post, autist.
People don't seem to really get the problem here. It's not a systemd problem, it's going to be an everyone's problem if politicians and corporations move forward with age/identity verification. I see people going like "whatever I will just move to OpenRC or runit or dinit and be free of this" but nah, down the line it will not be any different than using systemd or can actually be WORSE.Basically systemd (and other inits that decide to cooperate if any will come up) will have a way of storing your age info and maybe other data related to identity verification. Now if the OS or a particular app adds a way to verify your age and store the info in your system you can do one of the following:1. Comply, have your info harvested/stored and be able to use all the services that require you to be an adult.2. Deny to verify your age and be considered a child with limited access to websites and services.Now, if you are not on systemd? What happens then? Well then your ONLY choice is 2 because there is no way to verify age so anything that requires you to identify as an adult will treat you like a child. So hopping to a different init has not benefited you in any way.
>>108440927>but nah, down the line it will not be any different than using systemd or can actually be WORSEHow can it be worse? Makes no sense, those init systems give you full control and are not bloated doing things they shouldn't.

>>108440614You're overthinking it. Try MX Linux it has a non systemd option for their distros but is otherwise a normal daily driver style build like Mint. There's even a dual boot option.
they are clearly using this guy as a scapegoat
gotta say i'm a little whitepilled by how strongly people are coming out against a faggot simply adding a field for age verificationpeople are beginning to understand slippery slopes
>>108442940what does "whitepilled" mean???
>>108443009happified
>>108443009hopepilled
>>108440927SystemD is not an OS and therefore not required to have any of this, yet they didn't immediately trash this guy's suggestion
>>108440927>2. Deny to verify your age and be considered a child with limited access to websites and services.>will have to share online spaces with children exclusivelybased law
>>108444503Well, if that's what the law says ...
>>108442940>people are beginning to understand slippery slopesProbably because the last several years have been nothing but slipping down slopes. One would have to be a sub 50 IQ retard at this point not to see that the only fallacy about slippery slopes is believing they don't exist, and that politicians and billionaires haven't been designing them at every turn and trying to push us down them.It always starts at small things like a single age field. Next they'll say real time attestation needs to be in the OS. Will these same people who instantly cucked to the age field cuck there too? I'd have to think they would, because they've already shown the color of their character.
>>108434158This is so tiring. I just started using Linux 6 months ago switching from Windows. I guess I should have made my home directory a separate partition. Were the Gentoo people right all along? Is it just as convenient to use as Arch besides having to compile everything?
>>108444570>I guess I should have made my home directory a separate partition.Dude, same. I think I'm going to try to make a new partition and just copy my entire /home over wholesale and do it that way.
>>108444569Who even came up with the idea that slippery slope is a fallacy?
>>108444569I find it funny that you assume these cucks have character or personality to begin with. Even NPCs can learn programming, even if they're total shit at it.
>>108444570The hardest thing for me was kernel compilation, and that's because autists cannot be bothered to write descriptions to save their miserable lives. Everything else is essentially just "follow the wiki".
>>108444625That would be the jews maam
>>108444503They did they same in roblox, didn't they? They limited kids to talk only with other "kids". So now the adults can't even provide some incidental supervision.
>>108444570What's the benefit of this? Aren't you setting yourself up for fuckery when uids change?
We all know this has nothing to do with kids but we should use the same ammo they are using to convince clueless normalfags. If a parent thinks age verification is good just mention the Epstein files a bunch and ask if they think it's a good idea to have Epstein's child molester pedo friends in charge of knowing who's a child online and suggest that being in charge of your own kid and using parental controls is the safe option.Not that it will likely accomplish much.
>>108445722This is good thinking. Also mention to parents if they realize what kind of porn will be available to their kids on the harder to use P2P networks that kids will be pushed to once pornhub is out of reach.
>>108441221The internet as we knew it has been dead for a while
>>108445536>They limited kids to talk only with other "kids". They are split based off age groups rather than whenever they're under or over le magic number or not.Not entirely fool proof (some kid who stole my account spoofed it to sell shirts, it's in the 18-20 category but i'm 25) but it's enough to appease the geriatric retards. Game went to shit well before it became mainstream anyways.
>>108435456It's a strategy called embrace, extend, extinguish.First it's going to be a text field, then it's going to be a text-field that can hold a token of some kind from a verification agency, then no one is going to accept traffic from someone without an appropriate token and you will have to get one.>>108437842While Hanlon's Razor does state that "one shouldn't attribute to malice, that which can be adequately explained by stupidity", an actor who is stupid enough to seem malicious still takes actions that must be treated as if they were actively malicious, because the outcome is functionally identical.>>108444625Ski resorts.
>>108446648>you will have to get oneLolLmaoImplying I need their services.
>>108445697as long as you don't fuck with the partition table, uid has no reason to change. as for the benefits: not have your /home tied to the system install. better yet, have /home on a separate disk, so that write operations on home don't slow down the system.
>>108446836uid, the user id, not uuid.
So what should I use instead of Arch when/if this bullshit happens?>inb4 gentooDid that, hated it, pain in the ass to maintain. Switched to Arch because of it.
>>108446850Accept your fate.
>>108435114i have no idea what you're talking about.I've used devuan for years and it makes the minimal but efficient xfce/x11 on sysv configuration that debian has always been known for, for a decade prior to the systemd nonsense, I've loaded it on as my linux VM for whatever stack I'm running for a decade and it's just gone from strength to strength. it's done Ai and video encoding and desktop and streaming via a capture of my windows box, sure there's some occasional thing like a usb quirk that needs to be set, but honestly it's been pretty smooth sailing the last 5-6 years in particular with devuan. it does what I need it to do and I don't feel like I've got woke driven slop on my system.
>>108446873Artix
>>108446850ah. even then, why would your user id change after you've setup your system? unless you've got a multi-user setup or something
>>108446922That's what I'm asking. What is the benefit of having /home mounted from elsewhere if that's not a separate drive?
So why isn't the solution an optional user group that just identifies users who are not permitted to access explicit content? The onus would be entirely on the parent and then you could do away entirely with 18+ checks on web pages.
>>108446950>bro just reinvented parental controlsso you see how all of this is fucking retarded and most likely has ulterior motives?
>>108446929unironically distro hopping, or using an unstable distro which may or may not nuke the install without notice. otherwise I believe there's only minimal benefits to /home on a separate partition if it's not a separate drive.One other case I could see is having different filesystems with different pro/cons. On my machine (separate drives tho) I've got the home drive in ext4, and the system install drive in btrfs (for volume snapshots with a grub hook to use them in case the system dies).
>>108435456>merely>optionalTell me you're optionally a fag when they merely stick the tip in your ass
>>108446322Right, so the pedos that stole a young kid's account are now interacting with the youngest kids without oversight by teens or adults. Hopefully the Roblox moderation team is working overtime spying on all interactions, or their AI systems are good enough to provide the lost oversight that other older playing used to provide.
