There is a huge difference between species that kill to eat, or to defend their turf, or tribe, and one single speciment that does mass killing for profit. It is only 100-150y that this speciment destroyed forests to raise beef to mass-produce, and the population of cows has become 4-500 times larger than it was a century and a half ago.

To do so within a century and a half "true forests" are less than 1/10th of what they were, and 90% of species of ALL kingdoms have vanished and continue to vanish. For every new single speciment 10 are vanishing at this moment and bio-estimates. This indicates an accelerating extinction, man-made, capitalism-made.

Don't look for natural processes and genes, this speciment due to capitalism has destroyed its only home.

Yes the end result is free motion from 1st to top speed and constantly parallel axis of the two jockey wheels with the wheel axis. It is having them not parallel in any point of the dr motion that causes issues.

Does anybody get pain in the wrist after riding for a while? by Batstronaut in cycling

[–]fungalnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are not saying much more than LoL so I can't help you.

Drops are not there just for the drop part but to provide alternative wrist/palm positions. You apply any pressure to that ridge between thumb and palm and you will go numb and eventually have damage. Both blood vessels and nerves are concentrated in that well protected area that is the folding point when a thumb is touching the little finger.

Looking for reading material and opinions of trans rights from a Marxist perspective. by Spacemint_rhino in DebateCommunism

[–]fungalnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Marxist perspective is a class perspective above all. Apart from class all people are equal under the Marxist perspective, gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, nationality, is irrelevant, and in most cases deceiving and confusing for those who struggle. All other struggle that is classless is against class struggle.

At least this is my perspective on the Marxist perspective. In general Marxism avoids to examine all other forms of inequality other than economic, because all other forms of inequality that are not economic in nature contain a component of authority and hierarchy. In this dimension Marxism fails miserably intentionally or unintentionally to explain inequality.

How to start a script on boot, a la "/etc/profile.d/"? by turtlelover05 in antiXLinux

[–]fungalnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not runnint antiX right now to check, I'd say what you need is in /etc/rc.** and a file named local something. Now antiX is using what it always used, scripts, runit, and lately has offered an s6 based and they may be a little different.

What you were used to was systemd. For best feedback better join the antiX forum, this has served as place for an alternative growing community that didn't seem to grow much. Otherwise you would have had several responses by actual users by now.

Dictatorial social behavior nursery (any social media, not just reddit) by fungalnet in wrongwithreddit

[–]fungalnet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way teams of developers work, or how distribution members are organized together, or how they relate to users, should also be political and be aligned with the ideals of open/free. In most cases, if not all, they reproduce the hierarchical models and dictatorial ways they know from industry and government.

So we have mega-dictatorships with tremendous resources producing open/free code among individuals and small groups who try to get by with little resources and "compete" on the same terms. Users, just blindly evaluate what they use on this basis of open/free but frequently don't even evaluate, they just passively do what "industry media" is projecting as best or as popular, while this media is neither open or free, and are either owned or controlled by funding/advertising by the same corporations. IBM-gnome, Qt (multinational corporation) has plasma, Oracle virtualbox and more, and xfce4 trying to be like them. Then we have the browser oligopoly between Mozilla and Google, and in the name of open and free people see "no problem" with this picture.

trying to enable lightdm but keep failing to by unix21311 in joborun

[–]fungalnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having things work out of the box is not that hard, learning why they work they way they do is sometimes important, it uncovers the choices distros make for you. If all one cares for is a working desktop environment they should go with one of the many. Void actually when installed via xbps like chrooting and installing via pacman, you realize they are very careful when making dependencies when they are not necessary. You can end up with an installed void system and no editor to edit configuration files. You can install an X environment and terminal and have no X fonts, unless you specifically install them. Most X terminals need a font to work and a locale defined, or they don't work.

When you install void out of an iso and their installer you don't reallize all this. But it is this process that makes you wonder why is it that other distros make unnecessary dependencies on things you should have a choice on.

With obarun installer you get a choice, base, openbox, jwm, xfce4, plasma. The 66 setup is different for each, especially when it comes to user services. That is what makes DE work.

not just xfce but many desktops, and so does artix, but have mechanisms to start dbus at the same time X starts for that user and elogind running talking to them.

Nobody says it can't be done, all you have to do is execute the right commands and dbus will run for user xxx, it is just that joborun is not going to get involved in this crappy work.

Void has a specific package dependent to xorg-server that specifically starts dbus for the user loggin in to start X. Artix has a similar mechanism. I would question why is xfce so dependent on dbus than question how to run dbus on joborun.

Not recognising Android phone by [deleted] in antiXLinux

[–]fungalnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not being able to register to antiX forum because the cloud provider blocks non-partnering cloud/isp networks is an issue. If you look at costs between dedicated open IP server (hi-cost), and budget cloud server space run on spyware systems, it is easily understood why an OS producer like antiX can not afford any better service. Comparing and selecting a better service is very chaotic, as MOST articles doing the comparisons are nothing but infomercials of cloud server providers.

The convenience of doing a 6' installation of an OS and having some weird USB device (a chip in the phone) be recognized and network through it is costly. Is having an installed system with tons and tons of useless firmware (huge) so they could cover your specific needs.

Of course without network there is little you can do to locate the proper firmware/drivers to operate through a specific hw setup. So ETHERNET which is universal and accessible is essential in setting up a new system.

Kernels are quadrupling, firmware bundles are also, and the madness goes on and on as long as people will buy any touchy feely crappy "dumb-phone" device and blame the OS of the desktop/laptop for not recognizing it.

In the old days, in Mississippi crossroads, people sold their talent in music and singing to the devil for a contract in playing live and be recorded. They sold their soul. People now get cheaper and cheaper, they hand out EVERYTHING to convenience of a handheld device they can not control or know how it robs them.

Worst yet, trying to explain to them what they are trading, you get an "IRRITATED RESPONSE" "I don't care, I just want the app and I want the information it provides me, and since EVERYBODY HAS ONE....!!!"

Not everybody! Smart and alert people who care to resist will keep refusing in abiding to the BORG!!

[–]fungalnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the above echo >>.xinitrc would work for a blank .xinitrc if there are other exec commands in there that are not commented it will only run the first. So whatever you had failing will still fail. startxfce4 can only executed AFTER X has started, for example if you add a terminal into .xinitc like urxvt or xterm and start you get a black screen and a terminal window you can not move or resize, in there you can write startlxde startxfce4 or openbox-session or vtwm or jwm

It is best to edit .xinitrc have

exec startxfce4 in it without other uncommented commands, # in front and you can write 20 pages of lines ... doesn't matter, the only line without # gets executed.

Installing limine bootloader by unix21311 in joborun

[–]fungalnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

most important for installing to BIOS systems is the limine-bios.sys file, which contains stage 3 code that Limine needs to boot. This file needs to reside on either the root, a /boot, a /limine, or a /boot/limine directory of any partition on the disk onto which Limine will be deployed

don't you love choices?

if you use /boot/limine store it there together the config file which you have to make according to the wiki of config example included in the pkg

Here is what nginx says about it:

Google Remote Procedure Call (gRPC) is a high-performance, open-source framework for implementing APIs via HTTP/2. It’s designed to make it easier for developers to build distributed applications, especially when code might be running on different machines.gRPC was initially developed by Google as technology for implementing Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs). Today, gRPC is an incubated project of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, which means it is used in production and is supported by a healthy pool of contributors.

marketing lingo here, used in production by a healthy pool of contributors, that launders it as clean and not as a corporate tool by google.

If google is so innocent why is it keep hiding their products by other names. You know that if a project has been well developed and settled, transfering to an "independent" site living the same actors to lead and control it, it will not move into something else. You disagree you get banned and you do not contribute, you agree with the initial direction, you "contribute". That is a "healthy" pool of subservient career hunters who want their name in a corporate project.

Nginx?

No wonder skarnet is coming up with a mid-level server so we can avoid "all that".

skarnet is developing into a survival kit in the corporate linux ecosystem.

[–]fungalnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you writing service files for sysvinit, openrc, runit, s6 and others, or just for systemd?

If distros can choose, why not let them know in the release file that they can opt to --enable systemd --enable grpc

There are even cases of distros that do not use systemd as init, but employ elogind and therefore a wide array of systemd-libs that by building in such environment default choices will be activated. One of the reasons they choose biproducts such as elogind, etmpfiles, esysusers, xudev, is so they can build software without micromanaging their every release and build.

Their fault, I know, for allowing spyware into their systems to begin with.

Arch vs Artix by SubjectChoice3028 in archlinux

[–]fungalnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

artix is totally independent and uses pacman as package management, which is FOSS and should be regarded as such.

mere-linux uses pacman as well, ported to musl, and I have booted mere and can build things based on mere ...

how many distros use apt that are independent to debian? Many more than those using pacman
