I guess there really are enough NPCs that would read that blurb and not get some weird vibes.

Or maybe my notebook broke down and I had no choice for the replacement.

That's not a woman.

just get enterprise and turn that telemetry shit off, enterprise is OS made for private companies and microshit collecting data on them would be easiest way to get sued to hell and back in 21 century

i'm not going to fuck around with win7 with i7-7700k because it supports only basic drivers, kaby lake chipset is made for win10

You just convinced me to install it.

all new Computers/Laptops come with Win10 so there is no choose

faggot coward

I have Windows 10
Grow some balls nigger the NSA doesn't care about your CP

Living the dream tbh.

I'll be sure to notify someone who cares.

This. I have detailed filenames of all the CP i have in a folder named "Child Pornography" and NSA just have a laugh when they see it.

I guess I'm a literal cuck/redditor, thanks for informing me OP. I value your opinions and look forward to your next tweet, I mean blog post, I mean shitpost.

I've pondered the idea of having a linux computer for doing everything but games on, and then a windows computer for just games. Multiplayer games would kind of fuck it up though because ideally the windows computer wouldnt be connected to the internet.

Learn from my mistakes. I deserve the worse for trying 10.


I have to look into Enterprise because I swore I will be removing myself from Windows, Google, and all of that other shit Once the app game I'm playing dies.

Newfags don't know hot to disable every bit of tracking

An option is to get a processor with integrated graphics and then get a graphics card, install your *nix of choice and have it use the integrated graphics, install Windows in a virtual machine and use hardware passthrough, toggle the network connection as desired. Only needs one machine. There's a lot of resources on how to do this, here's one that is probably alright but I didn't actually watch it, there's wikipages that are probably better, look for "kvm vt-d passthrough"
youtube.com/watch?v=16dbAUrtMX4

In all fairness the NSA really doesn't give a fuck about CP. Kiddie diddlers are sickos but the National Security Agency mainly deals with well…National Security. And CP isn't exactly a matter of National Security

Now that said, if this was the FBI we were talking about they probably would care. But the FBI doesn't have direct access to the NSAs shit and would actually need a search warrant to search their encrypted archives (the NSA doesn't however because they're not under nearly as much scrutiny for data access as you can plainly tell)

How tech illiterate are you that you can't format and install a different OS?

It's funny seeing all of the faggots here with bone stock 7 installations that are packed to the brim with telemetry complaining about muh NSA with 10, when you need to disable that shit from both.

...

Too risky and I don't care enough

...

There is zero reason to use Windows at all anymore. Everything worth playing has a DX9 or OGL renderer, and thus works in WINE.

Changing OS can fuck things up and takes too much space

...

No.

So you're a legitimate shill spreading FUD? Eat shit.

He just might be a consolefag, plenty of them around, all smelly and dumb.

What exactly am I shilling

...

Nigger, notebooks don't even show you the fucking BIOS.

nah, just means you got the $$$ to buy it and don't want to jack with trojan cracked disk images and archaic "new" linux horse-shit

tho I have not tried any Linux lately,,,, I try installing Linus and some prime open-source software on something about every 5 years.
I have been using LiberOffice for a while now, it's still not as quick and smooth as Office365 but it mostly does okay.
GIMP and Inkwell look a lot better too than ~5 yrs ago.
most linux / 'free' software is crippled by having shitty help files

I got an old laptop running WinXP at the moment. what is a bigger distro that installs with a GUI? I'm not having any of that CLI silliness
(funny thing about that–25 years ago almost no Linux distros came with a GUI set to auto-install/run, and now almost all of them do? why is that)

as for botnet–you can't avoid that anymore online. your linux, hashes and tor node aint shit

(speaking of botnets, how come the first capchta I always fail no matter what, but the second one I always get right? who are we solving captchas for???……. )


pic related

I just checked, that setting doesn't even exist.

My life is a wreck and I can't be bothered to learn Linux.

i thought that also….. is it the xbox screen mebbe? I got no xbox myself

or perhaps, op's soul swims in faggotry

epic

Don't talk like you're not a pleb.

Manjaro + windows 98 here, it's so good.

...

...

Come on user, the media stopped shilling arch and it's derivatives and you're still riding that train? If you want something that's not ubuntu go fedora.

I have a maniac of a cousin who put his ubuntu install on windows' bootloader. Says it was because his shitty LG all-in-one comes locked to windows but using windows' bootloader for it was a loophole.

Does windows support ext4 yet?

That's not ZFS

It's an upcoming feature. It can already be found in Insider Preview Build 16199.

lol what a retard

Here all year and you haven't learned jack shit.

Dude lmao

GET A BRIAN MORAN

...

I was one of those that paid very close attention to WU during that shit, quite glad I avoided downloading that, same with the telemetry bullshit for Win 7

I'm glad I heard about it early, too. I may actually have saved my bosses business, by Win10 proofing all of our warehouse computers.

You guys are gonna have to learn Linux at some point or tell Microsoft to go fuck themselves. Because sometime in the future, there won't be hardware supported by Windows 7, 8 or 8.1.
So either learn Linux GNU/Linux and play there or the other option. Otherwise, you're simply being part of the cancer that's making PC gaming even more shit

Every time this gets posted

Doesnt work

You better be using Manjaro OpenRC.

You are completely mistaken about online tracking, malware etc when you take your security seriously. Linux is a much harder target for viruses and malware because it has sane security principles.

Tor is quite safe as long as you do not compromise yourself.

That being said, something Ubuntu seems right for you. Try Kubuntu or Linux Mint first.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

you are cuck if you don`t know how to gut Telemetry at package level

Asking for it.

Plan9 has not games.

What better game is there than clock cat?

Linux's security isn't that sane. New users often get the impression that needing root for a lot of things makes everything very safe, but the root/user model often means that processes are either in "you can fuck up absolutely everything" mode or "you can fuck up all personal data and everything else that doesn't affect other users" mode. It's inherited from Unix, a multi-user system, where the main thing was preventing users from fucking over each other, not keeping individual users secure, and where most users never had access to root at all. Linux's security is a bastardization of a mediocre system designed half a century ago for a very different threat model. Freedesktop.org is working on improving the situation with systemd and Flatpak, but Flatpak isn't ready yet.
I think the main reasons for Linux's lack of malware are low market share, high fragmentation and a relatively high average user competence. There are not that many systems, they run lots of different distros, and the people who run them tend to have the minimum level of competence needed to install them (which is not that high, but weeds out many of the people most susceptible).
That said, I don't use Windows or have a lot of in-depth knowledge about it. I don't know how its security compares.

As opposed to the real unadulterated "We left all that stuff out. If there's an error, we have this routine called panic, and when it is called, the machine crashes, and you holler down the hall, 'Hey, reboot it.'" Unix?

...

I've done my best to get rid of the telemetry horseshit, but it's not the same.

Format, reinstall, and most importantly, learn from your errors.

Just got a Ryzen, so that's a no go.
Go fuck yourself you obnoxious cunt. I was at work and couldn't do shit about it.

Yes. Have you used systemd in-depth, or are you just following the memes?
systemd uses cgroups and namespaces to give daemons access only to what they need, nothing more. Other Linux init systems tend to do nothing like that because it isn't portable to other kernels.
Systemd isn't perfect, but it's so much better than the alternatives.

holy shit what a retard

Your mistake was not being a filthy NEET. Had you been NEET you also would not have been able to afford a Ryzen CPU, the thing preventing you from going back to windows 7. Now you know better.

Why's that? It's sped up my rendering during editing projects by quite a bit.


I used to be a NEET but once I started lifting staying inside all day drove me crazy.

Daily reminder that even if you're using Linux you're still using compromised Intel/AMD hardware.

There is nothing preventing you from installing and using Windows < 10 with Ryzen.
You could have prevented it. Why didn't you listen?

Man, that's some bullshit too. It feels like no matter what the fuck you do, you can't escape and your best bet is to just patch and have as good of opsec as possible. I just want to relax and play vidya goddamn it.

Disconnect from the internet. Nobody can track you then.

at the rate vidya has declined, that doesn't seem like such a bad idea anymore.

viaembeddedstore.com/shop/boards/epia-m920/
You might have to go the embedded route. I doubt VIA has any tracking shit in their CPU's. Or you can either use computers that were made before 2008.

Bull-fucking shit. Intel ME can wake up your computer through wifi. It's a separate microcontoller on your northbridge that runs of the CMOS battery and has full access to your memory and internet.

So how does one fix this? Are there more honest rival companies? Would ancient processors be usable with modern computing? On a scale of 1 to "Jesus, fuck no!" how difficult would it be for a random nobody with an electronic engineering degree to design a new processor?

I'm still a neophyte when it comes to linux, but wasn't part of the problem people had that by comparison to other init systems, systemd forces too many services to rely on it and would lead to services becoming obsolete at the developers whim? It also looked like people wanted their startup daemons to be less monolithic and adhere more to the UNIX philosphy. I mean my distro currently runs systemd because I didn't want to start futzing with things without understanding why it might be bad, and I'm just using linux as an OS for production so I don't have a huge stake in this race. But I thought the veterans in the community arguing against it made some good points about why current startup processes were not beneath systemd.

Daily reminder even if you get 10 year old hardware the CIA still has the tools to access your Linux.
Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they can get into Tails now.

Don't use AMD or Intel. Use embedded shit or use another CPU arch entirely, like powerpc (old macs), MIPS, or ARM. Be careful about ARM, it's quickly turning into the next x86 with mobile smartphones, tablets, game systems, and even laptops turning to ARM because less energy and easier to manufacture. Most ARM chips seem ok as long as they don't have TrustZone or some Broadboard CIA nigger shit pared up with it.

Just disconnect your computer. Problem solved.

Just run TempleOS.

i installed wangblows 10 because of muh work, i thought i could rollback to windows 7 before the month was up BUT NOW THE LIMIT IS 10 FUCKING DAYS AND NOW I'M STUCK WITH WINSHIT 10 AND CAN'T GO BACK TO WINDOWS 7 WITHOUT FORMATTING. i've got way too much stuff to backup before reinstalling, is there a way to get past that 10 day rollback trial garbage or do i have to backup EVERY PROJECT I HAVE?

Are you a nigger? You can't disconnect. Go rip out the wifi chip on a laptop, Tyrone.

How do you live user?
Do you realize every single aspect of your life, if you live in the modern world is tied to another person that, in 99% of cases, you have absolutely no fucking idea who.
Does the water you drink been inspected by you? No? lol what a cuck!
How about your food? Are you aware of the process, from germination to harvest? No? Jesus, really? Are you really trusting all those people in that corporate chain not to fuck up?
The very air you breathe could be compromised. There are a plethora of odorless poisons you could be breathing RIGHT NOW! Fuck me sideways.
The transport you take, the clothes you're wearing, the hardware you use, all of it. All passing through the hands of others, complete strangers to you.
Everything user. Control is an illusion.
Having said all that windows 10 is still trash. It's slower than my W7 installation.

...

Systemd doesn't force anything to depend on it. The general pattern is this:
- systemd offers a good solution for an old problem
- program starts using that solution
- program eventually stops maintaining support for the old solution because nobody is willing to put in the effort
systemd is not monolithic in the way you might be thinking. It consists of many different parts, functioning separately, most of them optional, but they all depend on systemd's core. That stops you from replacing that core.
systemd does break the Unix philosophy, but Linux and GNU heavily do that anyway. It's not a good reason by itself.
Lots of veterans do oppose systemd, usually for valid reasons, but they're a minority. There's a reason most distros have adopted it. Torvalds likes it too. Imageboard discourse leaves lots of people with the impression that no sensible opinion would like systemd, but that's just false.
Don't bother with removing systemd for now. Keep using Linux until you actually have to nontrivially interact with systemd, and then you may decide you don't like it, or enjoy how much simpler it makes things. But while you're at this level you're right to leave it unfutzed.

ARM wasn't meant to be but now it's full on CISC like fucking x86, in fact the power saving of ARM came entirely from the reduced complexity inherent of not being a fucking CISC architecture. ARM has always been worse than x86 but they focused entirely on power saving, except now that they killed all they've done for power saving intel is going to own the mobile market assuming ARM's market share isn't too big to fall.

Every day I'm more and more dumbfounded at how normalfags can defend such an obviously willfully malicious OS

Wait until you're in the middle of a videogame and it tabs you out of the game, blurs the whole screen and shows a banner with a windows 10 anniversary update advertisement. happened to my brother's wife's son

Oh the irony.

As a point of interest, what do you have to say about its non-transparent nature and lack of open source? I'm not a Linux user, but my passing interest in the subject tells me that it's a problem when the user can't just look at the source code to figure out what systemd actually does.

That sounds like a made-up problem, to be honest. It's fully free software and open source, licensed under the LGPL. Can you clarify?

...

...

...

What is this problem? There are a couple of viable startup daemons that I can observe in the community and as far as I know they all work just fine.

So kind of like how the Linux Kernel is the core of the OS? But to quote an article I remember reading "Modular and monolithic aren't mutually exclusive". From what I know systemd components are still tightly interdependent when compared to other startups. Wouldn't this still make it monolithic, just with lots of smaller parts?

Fair enough

Isn't it backed by redhat? The same people who made pulseaudio?

Yeah, when I first started I thought I could pick a stance to have on this but quickly realized how out of my depth I was. Things work, I'm happy with my distro at the moment, and I plan to increase my understanding to the point where I can run a gentoo installation that I can maintain reliably. Until then it's Mint for me.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mictyris_guinotae

Why are you cunts attracted to shit threads like moths to a flame?
I mean holy shit go talk in one of the threads actively trying to talk about video games, not this fucking garbage.

...

There are multiple. systemd does a lot of things.
But probably the most prominent one is login management. Using systemd's logind, desktop environments can safely provide incredibly advanced behavior like letting someone turn off their computer. GNOME used to use ConsoleKit, but it uses logind now.
Yeah, I said "not monolithic in the way you might be thinking". It's monolithic, but not by all meanings of the word. Some people think that everything systemd does happens in PID 1, but it's spread out much more reasonably.
The interdependency can be a problem, but I'm careful with the word "monolithic" because of the additional meanings it carries.
It is now, but it wasn't originally. A Red Hat employee started it, pitched it to Red Hat, was rejected, and worked on it in his own time. Red Hat picked it up later on when it proved itself. I think about half the systemd maintainers work for Red Hat now.
I don't know if the Red Hat support had a lot of influence on its adoption by other distros.

Coolhackers wannabe don't know you cannot disable every bit of tracking because OS will straight up ignore system settings if you attempt that.

...

...

are you some kind of retard

Install Windows 7 to another drive, and manually copy your stuff over if you have to.

Are you? The webm showed that tracking and telemetry still occurred with the settings set to off.

Just use Win 10 LTSB and activate it, since it's the only acceptable OS since 7. Or use Linux and spend years fucking around with WINE.

...

Guy could sell that for millions

I guess I could be worst.

Now remember this for the rest of your life, all of you who fell for it

IF IT'S FREE YOU ARE THE PRODUCT

but wine is easy living if you have winetricks

What's wrong? If it can be encrypted, it can be decrypted. The key is sent before the cyphertext is sent, and it's a symmetric key meaning it can be used for decryption.

...

wccftech.com/game-monitor-anti-cheat-windows-10/

No.

...

LTSB still spies on you. The only difference is that it doesn't come with the pre-installed shit applications.

Friendly reminder
The "limits what game you can play" only applies to Wangblow's new windows APP filetypes and has nothing to do with exes.

True professionals use Harvey Raper OS

Thats how it always starts and how they get people to swallow whatever shit they peddle

>OH MY GOD GUY THEY'RE GOING TO MAKE IT APPLY TO EXE FILES IN THE NEXT UPDATE BE SCARD BE VERY SCARD
You're a retard.

Says the slow boiling frog while ignoring history

Slow boiled frog had a fucking lobotomy before the experiment and that is an intellectual fallacy.

Most of the boogieman settings in Windows 10 only apply to those UWP apps from their app store wannabe that nobody uses.
All the telemetry you're afraid of has been added to Windows 7.

Does Win10 still install trash apps against your will and force updates on you?

Fucking plebeians. I bet you have not even ascended to an energy based state of existence yet.

If you don't change your settings, and I mean actually change your settings, not use the windows settings App. Yes.

The problem is that I play a lot of varied shit that I'm sure most of which isn't really supported by Linux, and as it stands my lazy ass isn't doing anything that would benefit more from Linux, even though I would really like to change that.

And daily reminder that if you think that Microsoft hasn´t patched in secret telemetry also in Windows 7 a long time ago, then you´re even more gullible than Windows 10 cucks.

The windows computer could also be on the internet, so long as you don't do anything but play games on there. The issue is that coordinating shit with multiplayer friends might be a pain if you also plan on doing as little communication as possible on your windows PC.

Take your bloated mess of an init system elsewhere. It's written by terrible coders who dismiss bugs and broken functionality as features (see archive.is/5doQ7 as a decent example) and demand the Linux kernel devs implement hacky workarounds for systemd bugs instead of fixing their own fucking software.

People are fucking retarded. I think that's not gonna change anytime soon. If anything, people seem to get even more retarded with time. Which is why I own Microsoft stocks. As a Linux user, I wouldn't touch any of their products with a ten foot pole. However, as an investor that profits from a future where the consumerist masses get fucked in the ass harder than ever before, I implore you all to continue using Windows, and ideally also upgrade to Windows 10.

So far all the stuff I try to change with systemmd gets changed back by a daemon.

Fuck you I'm going back to DOS!

So we should all buy windows, then?

It's like you can't put some effort into defending your castle.
I literally use my win10 box for hyper-V bullshit and gaming and have 0 personal information in it, even though it is Education edition with all bs turned off via GPOs


Consumer side probably, business side not so much. When you need an astrolabe and tea leaves to find the proper licensing for MS server products, you're just turning people onto alternatives (all of them linux pretty much).

Is this Terraria?

Who is that fluid druid on the first pic?

Well you certainly post like a redditor.

Commit suicide, queer. You’re too stupid to comprehend the platform; you deserve everything you get.

actually I think I'm gonna switch xubuntu to ubuntu, I like how customizeable XFCE is but it's not as polished as unity which I use on my laptop

Yes goyim, slippery slope would NEVER happen. Now keep that Windows 10 installed

RSA is asymmetric, look it up and stop posting that video, since it likely is disinfo spread by M$ and/or NSA.


Good for you, not giving it network access is the only way to "turn off the telemetry", everyone telling you otherwise is a retard of the highest caliber. Id stull use 7 since the nippon stuff works there anyway and it doesnt have that atrocious ui.

The difference between win7 and 10 is the difference between being treated with decency and veing treated like a smartphone user. Since google gas proven that virtually everybody belongs to the latter group M$ is not going to turn back. Guess I wont be able to put off going full linux anymore…

Is there by now a way to make the root prompt like UAC so I can just click instead of having to type?

12749664
False. I did not install the telemetry updates, because I have the freedom to, unlike you, cuck.

Trips confirm.

Anyone that uses anything other than Linux is a cuck. There is nothing else to it.

There is nothing wrong with using Debian GNU/kFreeBSD

Anything but videogames, LOL.
Kidding, kidding. This is a good read.

enjoy the smartphone ui that is gnome

this is the same retard who pays for photoshop

BSD is fine, too.
And Solaris, if that's still around.

There's not a great deal you can do on what's basically a glorified tablet.

1971 is calling because it is fucking retarded to argue over a computing paradigm from then. Lisp OS when.

count me in
also my personal experience with win10 was when a student came in and said
so i said
class got a laugh out of me loudly WTFing at microsoft's ineptitude

im not OP but I do filter my water, watch the news for air pollution levels, and do my best to know what I am eating.
these are all things you can actually do, they are not all easy but saying they are impossible is just you shifting responsibility away from yourself.

the slippery slope fallacy does not actually apply to these arguments.
slippery slope falacy applies to "we have ad A and B, whats next? 7?" and not "we have had A and B, whats next? C?"

Just disable it in the task scheduler or disable the whole scheduler(better disables a lot of CEIP-Services too). The not update hours are only for noobs who don't understand that most things in Windows depend on other services and you can always just throw away the entire poisoned brick. We should make a Windows thread and list all spy services and how to disable them and make a powershell script for Windows Enterprise LTSB.

It would be, except that the paradigm is still in use today for some reason and therefore still relevant.
1973. You're not helping your point.

Just install Slackware Linux then. It's still not DOS but it is really comfy for DOSfags. Source: DOSfag who runs Slackware.

Trips of truth

So as far as gaming is concerned, how feasible is running W7 in a VM?

Except they already pulled that kind of shit with not supporting 32-bit applications.

Actually, this user isn't too far off. I've been testing an ISO from last years build that I customized by removing cortana/telemetry/bloatware via DISM. Using wireshark and fiddler the only activity I see is the windows store looking for updates.

I've yet to see this occurring>>12748224

...

Waht fucking notebook did you buy? Mine came with a shitty, ripped down Linux distro with the instructions "format and install whatever fucking OS you want"

Seems to still be less buggy than KDE, for now.

Only works well if you use GPU passthrough. Honestly, most shit runs in Wine. No reason to even need the VM.

I thought even redditors weren't cucked enough to use Win 10.


Me too, but with Manjaro.

A smalltalk system would be better. If we are going to use ideas from the 70s then we should use the good ideas from that era. Xerox Parc == good ideas, Unix == a shit hack to run on an obsolete computer.

SHE LOOKA LIKE-A MAN

fucking lol that you think that works.

Reminder loonix still has a share of about 3% of the PC gaming market.

Year of the linux desktop never ever.

:^) 😂😂😂😂👌👌👌👌👌

>>>/4chan/

GPU Passthrough doesn't detect as linux, so there's no way to actually know how many people game on Linux. It does show that very few games run natively on linux, but that is the fault of developers.

Last time I looked it was ~1.5%, so that's a big jump. :^)

Passthrough doesn't detect as Linux because it isn't Linux, it's just Windows with a prophylactic.

reminder that people literally only use linux to feel cool

Sure fam ill let you increase that number to an amazing 4% just to acount for ALL 👐these people using gpu pass.

Plus if you want to even actually use the qemu vm to game you will have to give it also its own usb hub and network adapter if you want to use a gamepad or play online without constantly switching scripts for the control of these devices.

Nigger, if I wanted to feel cool I'd be on Plan 9 or OpenBSD.

So, say I have a laptop with windows 7 on it, and it has the partition for reinstalling if necessary. is there anyway I can transfer a windows 7 install to a new win 10 laptop? Can I just reformat the win10 laptop and install the win7 on it from my old one?

...

If you are using anything but TempleOS then you are an invisible CIA nigger that I need to hit with my car. Linux? Use a white man's OS you fucking nigger.

Take out the hdd out of the win7 laptop and put it into the new one. might need drivers, win10 ones should work

Is there a version of GNU/Linux/Unix/Ubuntu/Gentoo/etc that looks and operates exactly like Windows in every functional sense, including all key bindings and data structures and all of that? Even better, one where windows binaries will natively run?
I'd switch in a heartbeat if someone would make something like that.

This, CIA niggers are too dumb to get into TempleOS.

Even Windows doesn't natively run all Windows binaries.

I don't use Intel and I'm still stuck on a crappy AMD APU for now.

You just sound like a massive autist and there is no way that windows has anything to do with your graphics card reliability unless it's 10+ years old. This reeks of some autist desperately trying to affirm your own beliefs.

How about using Process Explorer?

i had to reinstall everything at some point, some games wouldnt work without updates. hopefully i dont have nsaids

Actually Winblows 10 fucked up AMD and Nvidia graphics cards semi-frequently from it's own updates and even new ones couldn't be installed properly a couple years ago. Winblows 10 specifically would try and push Nvidia drivers that Nvidia itself wasn't even putting out via automatic updates and absolutely fucking everyone right in the ass messing up their graphics cards. And even now just in february another update fucked up AMD and Nvidia graphics cards, again.

I just want to play games, damn it. Why did steamOS have to fail so hard? Why can't there be an OS that is designed just for playing games? Limit the hardware it needs to be able to support to gaming oriented stuff and make it run really fast. Why is PC gaming fucking stuck with an ever increasingly shitty, bloated OS that behaves more like malware than anything ? When will enough be enough and people actually start leaving that piece of shit? Is this it, is this the end? I don't see things getting better anytime soon.

you dont get it, it doesnt matter what you use on top of an untrustable layer, it can tell you everything you want to hear even though it very well may be lie without you being able to tell

7 works well if you arent stupid enough to drink the koolaid of "not supported!!", "not modern!!", "insecure!!" etc. For directx9 games and older linux with wine is great too, which is what I will switch to after 7

That doesn't really work. You'll have to block at the router level.

Found it, thanks for the tip.

I see systemd shills are so desperate to shill their stuff that they are resorting to shitting up Holla Forums since Holla Forums isn't buying their bullshit. And you guys have been trying to shill Holla Forums really hard too, with some very obvious tells that you're disinfo shilling and pretending to be a Holla Forums member when you're clearly not from Holla Forums.

The short end of it is that systemd is unreliable, insecure, absurdly bloated, and run by egomaniacal prima donna liars who go to severe lengths to force their systemd software on the general userbase as hard dependencies while screaming that it's free software and people have a choice so they should just get with the program, install systemd, and allow it to become a hard dependency for all linux computers already.

Also:
Blatant lies. See: udev.

More blatant lies I see. Evidence or gtfo. This is gonna be like that shit where you shills argued that stallman likes systemd because it's free software when stallman said he doesn't use it but since it's free software he doesn't consider it an issue ethically (because stallman's software ethics are GPL/copyleft autism). He never weighed in on the quality of the project or the developers or systemd's track record and said that he doesn't use it himself. As for Torvalds, while Torvalds has given "I don't give a fuck about it" statements on systemd in the past, he has also banned systemd developers from contributing to the kernel because the faggots were breaking shit in their systemd and then demanding people patch the kernel to work around their problems:

theregister.co.uk/2014/04/05/torvalds_sievers_dust_up/


Poettering himself (systemd maker) has also given rants about how much he dislikes Torvalds (which I imagine is caused in no small part by the sheer butthurt Poettering has that he can't call the shots on the kernel, which is why he's trying to make systemd into a mandatory kernelplus).

So describing Torvalds as a fan of systemd is somewhere in the realm of "you're totally full of shit unless you can produce some serious fucking evidence."

SteamOS is still chugging along, it's just that the Steam Machines were absolute shit.

Why would you ever use 10 over 7? Just play Killer instinct on a slightly-less-pozzed Wangblows 7 Box.

That wiki page is way too long to fully respond to, but I know a lot of it is bullshit. For example, it links to this:
suckless.org/sucks/systemd
That page is popular, and it has a lot of misinformation. For example:
- It says PID 1 does DNS. It doesn't, that happens in a separate process.
- It says systemd replaces sudo and su. It doesn't, it provides functionality which partially overlaps with sudo and su's functionality, but deliberately functions differently and doesn't replace sudo and su.
- It says systemd makes /etc read-only. It doesn't, it only makes it read-only to a certain service, which is just good security, not to the system as a whole.

udev is a fair point. I forgot about that.

Linus dislikes some things about systemd. He dislikes some things about just about everything. He likes systemd enough to use it.
I agree with you about the Stallman argument, and I usually clarify it when I see someone make it. It's only appropriate when someone accuses systemd of being proprietary, which actually did happen in this thread.

For what it's worth, I've been on Holla Forums since day one and I first used Holla Forums before gamergate.

How the heck would you know that?

Case in point: Saw this the other day:
bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ source/systemd/ bug/1449001
This has been going for 2 years

This is surprisingly a better post than what I usually find on Holla Forums about systemd. Fair point on Torvalds using systemd. Those suckless criticisms though aren't really the primary criticisms about systemd.

The primary criticisms about systemd are usually:

Generally speaking for those of us who installed Linux to get away from Microsoft's insanity, systemd seems to be a lot of steps very much in the wrong direction. The absurd pro-systemd shilling we have to put up with from time to time isn't endearing us much to the software either.

The suckless criticisms aren't the primary criticisms, but I was addressing them because the wiki page is so unfocused. It's not a good thing to link to.
I do dislike a lot of systemd's developers, but it's not something (for me) that makes systemd worse. The results sometimes are, but they can speak for themselves.
I don't mind the scope creep. systemd is a suite of programs, not a single program. I don't think Zawinski's law applies (and that's not just because I like systemd, I like Emacs but Zawinski's law very obviously applies to it).
"Attempting vendor lockin" is not exactly what systemd does. It's not a deliberate goal on itself, it's a side effect of decisions taken for other reasons, usually for simplifying systemd development. Allowing tight interdependencies saves you a lot of work. I don't think "openness" as it's usually meant with regards to Linux et al. is at stake here.
I really don't see how systemd does EEE, especially the third E. Can you clarify?
On the whole, systemd's security is a vast improvement over its predecessors.

Less absurd than the posts saying that systemd is a NSA plot and that Red Hat hires people to defend it on Holla Forums. The discussions are really bad on both sides.

The page itself isn't attempting to be an argument against systemd. It is simply a collection of reasons why various individuals disapprove of or distrust systemd, so it is up to the reader to decide what speaks to them.

Well I think the results are very deeply connected into the personalities that are running the show. I think the issue with systemd's debug output crashing the kernel and trying to pass the buck to the kernel has to do with their personality. I think the DNS insecurity issues are a result of them deciding for you what's best and not budging it. I think the decision to absorb udev into systemd despite promising not to do that has to do with Poettering's personality as well. A lot of general reluctance to fix bugs and security issues (or even acknowledge them as such) stems from the personalities of the developers.

Systemd is a very monolithic entity on the whole (and intentionally so), rather than a modular suite, so judging it as a singular work of software is appropriate in this case.

There's a common trend among these developers to tell others "do this because it's more convenient for us and fuck everyone else, I see no problem with that." Whether you wish to describe it as a side-effect or primary effect, it is done knowingly and intentionally at this stage.

So systemd comes into your system promising a suite of functionalities and on the side does a weird thing where it decides that when users log out all their background processes must be terminated (which is decidedly non-standard behavior). As it turns out, this messes with tmux. Systemd then rolls around and by dint of their marketshare attempts to tell tmux that the solution is to create a systemd dependency instead of using the normal daemon() method so that it plays nice with systemd.

github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/428

And the line of logic that suggestion follows really does appear to be a slippery slope of "just let systemd replace daemon() from now on since our tools work better for systemd users" where daemon is obsoleted with a not-so-slight side effect of turning systemd into a dependency for the software in question.


I don't mind discussing with you because I can tell you're having a sincere conversation here, but a lot of what I've seen on Holla Forums could not be described as that.
