Checks out

As an interesting aside, try upgrading from Ubuntu 24.04 to 26.04.
They replaced coreutils with a metapackage that uninstalls GNU coreutils and installs one rewritten in Rust.
Or it would install one rewritten in Rust, if it still had any of the coreutils binaries required to, you know, install something.

I am, and you’re right, but my server’s still running Debian

systemd-resolved is a service. It’s not scope-creep. It’s its own thing built in the systemd framework.

You’ve misunderstood something.
systemd-resolved is one of the services that uses systemd’s service management system
You’re saying “don’t use this service management system to manage your services”

Then you’ll be in a good place. With many long-term support releases, you only need to upgrade every 4-5 years and it’s often a relatively painless process.
Also companies like Red Hat offer some enterprise services to individuals (i.e. not for business purposes) and you might get the extended support, which can be up to twelve years in some circumstances.

Also, notably but perhaps not obviously, stable releases still get security patches, just not feature changes.
Don’t think you don’t need updates when updates means five different things.

Debian for the 72fth time.

That’s the truth. The problem with systemd is that it’s too good.
Wayland is neat and may reach feature parity with X11 just in time for it to be replaced by the next thing!
Not really. It took a while but it’s been solid for a long time. Much as I resent their “our way or the highway” policy, but Ubuntu pulling support for X11 is probably for the best. Solves the adoption problem.

I just really like exploring. I do also enjoy the feel of a fresh clean install. Getting to set things up again without all the cruft of gradual config tweaks.

That’s exactly what I ended up with, Arch on my gaming laptop, Debian on the server.
It is weird not having a desktop computer, but the laptop plays all the games and the server does all the rest.

Latte Dock isn’t being maintained any more, right?
It was the only one I could find that replicated the MacOS dock aesthetic and behavior and it’s used in all the drop-in global themes, but it’s doesn’t run on Plasma 6.

Has anyone cracked the launcher bar in Plasma 6 since Latte Dock didn’t make the jump?

Aw. Maybe I’ve just blocked those communities.

I’m glad we seem to be past “ricing”

The majority can still be wrong

?? okay
Aren’t all the people who make up the company shitty, either by direct overt action or by being complicit in their inaction?

Yes but aren’t they shit people

coreutils
yes this is a jab at rust-coreutils
