  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Click here if you don't get it.I told it to power off. It rebooted to do updates. Once these updates were done, it powered off. Kinda like Windows. πŸ˜‚

    Debian getting an update? What wizardry is this? Oh wait it still has a 9 year old version of sqlite.

    I know you're joking but the fact that 2022 was 6 years ago is crazy to me. It don't feel like that at all

    2022-12-28 is actually about 2.6 years ago.

    Shit, wrong timeline. I knew something felt off. Welp, back to the time machine…

    And that's for bookworm, which was released in June 2023.

    Trixie currently has, and will likely have, sqlite3 3.46.1, which was released 2024-08-13.

    Yeah, and I use trixie myself, but I think that it's reasonable to use Debian stable rather than Debian testing in response, because for Debian, "release" is when it enters stable.

    It is true that trixie is expected to become new stable within about two weeks, so we're right on the verge of a new release, but it still isn't out the door.

    Debian has a major release once every 2 years or so. That is when packages get major version bumps. Until then the stable version only gets security and stability updates.

    It's what pisses me off the most using Debian.

    Set a active directory server with samba on Debian and one day windows 11 machines couldn't login anymore.

    After hours of troubleshooting:

    ah yes this samba issue was fixed 3 years ago but you didn't get it because you're "stable"

    Honestly I have patched a few debian packages manually before. Sqlite in particular - I needed a new trigger feature so I built the damn thing from scratch and installed it.

    I think doing that probably caused some debian dev to literally die.
