So it's only a War No-No, then?

Do you mean libertarian?

Consider PCLinuxOS. 'PLOS' has the same look and feel of the ent Linuxes, but

• as a child of mageia/mandriva from mandrake and conectiva, it's derivation from RH is super long ago so it's closer to rhel5 for well-built well-tested tools.

• it has maaaaassive lib/app support range, like Axel Rose's vocal range compared to EL's Bruce Springsteen. No stream or other crap shenanigans aside from etc/alternatives.

• No systemd. Weird how startups are fast and reliable

It can yum cron like a badass.

Caveats:

• if you liked building vagrants on mageia, you need to help them on pclos. They have no clue there, and the skillet seems to be fading fast.
• people who support sysv startup are getting more lazy and ditching it.
• people who support last week's version of anything are no more prevalent in pclos, so there's no magical fix for "10 second tom" devs here either.

That's funny. When the maintainer of AT&T unix's perf group was looking at a distro to clone and support, RPM>Deb was 90% why debs were excluded.

Maybe something changed dramatically since then.

I think some of my units are on the 'lgtm' update plan too. ;-)

I'm aware I'm jinxing myself when I suggest that I've had very different experience. We're mostly WDReds though.

Monday: Chest / Tricep

Tuesday: Back / Bicep

1. I'm an idiot for working out as I'm a karate/climbing boy

2. I came in here accidentally so this will sound stupid. Please show mercy ... but light heckling is cool

• should one not work out both sides of a group at once on the same day? Eg bicep+tricep always in the same session

Thanks. And sorry. And thanks.

There's clearly a value and a route toward companies hosting their own federated comms. It's like how email became self-hosted in the '90s: first the bitnets and aols, and unis and orgs, and finally, thanks to Outlook tasting email on the way in, email viruses.

The same progression will probably repeat for Lemmy and mastodon. Consolidation and self-archiving and all that are valuable, and once HPe finds out how to link ChatGPT to a Lemmy or mastodon, they'll be all in with something suiting their current quality trend.

Ideally we'll have gone crypto by then for private messaging, and go farther for privacy than email and fbchat seems to be able, and that'll be nice.

many offices have already been converted

The plural of anecdote isn't data.

If it was, we'd not have smoke detectors. After all, most people have gone through 12,000 days without a house fire, so there's no value.

work with headphones in. So I wouldn't contribute to the collaboration that is claimed to take place.

In the new cramped environment with low visual privacy and especially no audio privacy, we all just end up with earpods in. We need the noise isolation to f'n THINK!

So the boss oozes his way over and 'hums' and 'haws' trying to get our attention before waving and doing that "hey pull out your earbuds so I can talk" gesture that resembles yokels trying to pick up someone in an elevator or on the bus and not.getting.it .

Because he doesn't.

So that is the life of people I left at the old job, and it's repeated a thousand times over.

Learn to also say on the phone "this environment has no audio privacy. Can you book meeting and a conference room? Thanks", if you get too many desk calls.

... and HVAC and power with the internal wall change and sound-insulation.
