Speaking of init, I wonder if devuan will ever add dinit as alternative to openrc, s6 and sysvinit.
Heard good things about dinit.
probably need some kind of raid functionality.

That's putting it mildly... very mildly in fact.
light and set color temperature also known as sct or xsct are good ways to do brightness.
And if you use a window manager, in some you can have it start its command once you login.
light -S 75
xsct 2000 1.0
those are ones I tend to use for battery life and to ease the pain on my eyes.
@blackhole still, they are helping to an extent. Call it what you want, but its not nothing. Its better than most corporations in my opinion when it comes to their idea of business.
most usually ignore wine, or even worse try to block it.
All I am saying is the situation could be much worse.
@blackhole I am surprised that Valve even is supporting wine at all, given how many corporations do the contrary and get in the way.
So semantics to you, but to me its still worth celebrating.
The difference between wine and windows is that you only maybe are being spied on in the game while you are using wine.
At most.
You can at least not be spied on all the time. If you know what I mean.
@blackhole yes and no. Valve is trying to get their version of wine to work with more stuff.
"proton" its a version of wine.
So... yeah its not that simple.
What you say here isn't always the case.
@blackhole tell that to valve/steam
Btw, it also depends which computer games you are talking about.
if its triple A + anti cheat, then yes you could be right.
If its not anti cheat, then no its not that simple.
@golinux well did you enjoy the responses?
All you said was "time for a break..."
@golinux Rorschach test? EDIT:
o that's what that is called, the same thing as an ink blot test.
Never knew it had another more specific name
Also, that thread got old like less than halfway to what it is now. So.. I will say I am on your side for this.
Don't blame you at all.
@2disbetter Hadn't known that, interesting to know that you moderate framework forums. I have seen you on here in the past though, what's different now?
@jwmkit Oh okay hadn't realized that about rrqsu
@prospero @JWM-Kit
Is rrqsu lighter in cpu usage, memory usage and less dependencies than YAD?
Curious
"social media" in quotes would make even more sense with asterisks... because a lot of social media websites have anti-social garbage to the max, besides privacy issues and malevolent data collection aspects.
The open source ones still have the anti-social garbage though alas even if not the data collection level evil.
Its impossible to make social media websites without any of that I think.
I don't get out enough and usually don't have insane standards on my linux usage. Such as needing to communicate with openpgp gnupg for everything, I know people like that on certain forums.
Point being, I have other reasons I am trapped in not having a relationship.
Life can be dull and confusing.
@blackhole it was a guess yes 95% was that.
my point was merely that gnuboot will DEFINITELY LAG way behind canoeboot. That was the point and both are basically doing the same mission.
Blobs in hardware in my opinion are also fine as long as they don't do anything remotely troublesome.
Thus libreboot is also good.
Stock bios is the real enemy here.
Freedom issues are not 100% solvable
I don't think this works at all in wayland unless they deliberately left this option in for wayland.
Btw, fun fact, there is also sx which is like startx but requires and provides less.
Its basically a suckless startx. I don't know the specifics, but on hyperbola, I don't need anymore functionality than that has.
Also, I tried startx on devuan a few times, it worked up until like 5 months ago. Weird it is.
@mtbvfr no idea, i think as much any hardware can be is a good answer. with one caveat, coreboot hardware is similar, but not stock bios. mnt reform stuff is definitely more secure than stock bios uefi on x86.
Oh and I should also add, I might have been wrong, RK3588 is a while away from being liberated on the gpu if nothing else. even if it works without boot blob, there is the ARM MALI still...
ALSO NO mnt reform devices currently work without systemd right now. Unless on OpenBSD or similar.
Meanwhile, GNU Boot offers a de-confusing option for those who are looking for a full commitment to software freedom.
This makes me kind of sad as gnu boot will definitely lag behind libreboot and canoeboot. I get some people don't like her policies including drama outside of development as well as allowing non-free blobs, but is security worth taking a potential nosedive just to feel pleasure?
It just seems like a megalomaniac reason to refuse canoeboot or libreboot based on this.
Canoeboot however is what gnuboot aims to be. The only difference? More updates.
All I am saying is that no hardware that libreboot, coreboot, canoeboot, or similar is 100% free.
Just keep this all in mind. Also, the microcode that starts in the system even if its not updated is still non-free. The only difference of updating it, is that it could be better or it could be worse.
Anywho just some thoughts I really hope people will take to heart. Although I have seen disappointment on this before.
So... meh.
I always use xdm myself in devuan.
If slim isn't working anymore, I suggest xdm as a possible alternative. Although if you use multiple desktop environments or window managers, this might not be for you.
@sinOjOs not just the government but corporations in general.
This is the same thought process of why x86 needs to be abandoned by insert distro here ________
I don't think we have gotten to a point where 32 bit is obsolete to where it can't be supported on any distro.
FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD support lots of old hardware some that is older than 32 bit x86.
So there's that.
While this isn't directly related, i feel like it has similar reasoning.
planned obsolescence is corporations mantra. You can be pretty sure that systemd was created for a purpose similar to planned obsolescence.
Nothing sane anyhow.
@golinux if you want real nonsense that sounds like someone is digging into their butt for regurgitated crap, just listen to the current president talk.
Let us just say, I am an expert at making nonsense, but he has absolutely EVERYONE beat.
There is no contest once you hear him ramble.
@greenjeans is there any proper section for user spongebob's comment?
@golinux I suppose so, but did you like the shots I just fired?
(joke thread being nonsensical)
@golinux why can't we have one mindless thread where people just spew nonsense over and over again?
And I am not including the joke thread in that.
Shots fired!
