Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

As for FOSS and systemd... systemd is FOSS, and while I don't particularly agree with the design or the attitude of the designer(s), that's not really what I was referring to.

Im not up to speed on my acronym's, what are these?

As long as there are those who maintain non systemd FOSS linux distros, then hopefully we wont have to put up with non FOSS software and attitudes.

Okay. Thanks.

I guess I've been lucky. I've had better luck with OpenBSD on a desktop than FreeBSD.

I suppose it's all a hardware issue.

No real reason, mostly just more familiarity.
For a security-focused appliance (e.g. router / server etc) I'd probably pick OpenBSD, but last time I played with the desktop usecase FreeBSD had better hardware support and was easier to get the software I wanted installed.

Just curious...why FreeBSD instead of OpenBSD? No long answers needed...just want to know your basic thoughts.

This is definitely bad news.

For people running proprietary black-box systems... Which is, at least for the most part, not us.

Video summary: Windows bad, Apple bad, Google bad, AI bad, everyone and their dog wants endpoint control and uses FUD and "think of the children" to get it.
IOW, corporate big-tech abuses their power and their users, and normies just don't care because herd-mentality and convenience. Same old, same old. *yawn*
