ShadowHawk posted:Uh, no, Debian's Wine maintainer shipped a broken package split into dozens of chunks based on 1.5 year old Wine releases. He also worked for Transgaming who were direct competitors with free Wine. I asked in IRC if someone could do a non-maintainer upload of a new package on my behalf and got a rather cold reception, especially since I didn't have maintainer gatekeeper approval. Sounds like the appropriate result was achieved here tbqh

ahmeni posted:systemd is really cool because the driving force behind it is "what if we took all the pain points of Linux and over engineered them to the point of being a completely different set of problems" I converted my "puttering-around" Linux into using systemd and I think I can best describe the idiocy by illustrating with the change from tail -f /var/log/syslog to uh journalctl -somethingorother so I installed rsyslog and got old functionality back ![]()

Mr Dog posted:yeah journalctl -f is so very hard to remember, especially since they deliberately chose that flag to be the same as tail -f rsyslog is more about the poo poo that lives in and off of /var/log/ but ok journalctl is basically the archetypical overengineered solution, though I like -x VAGENDA OF MANOCIDE fucked around with this message at 16:06 on Sep 2, 2014 |

for example say you run a (properly configured) name server and some morons are trying to bounce ddos off of you their zombies don't care that you're not actually sending on the recursive lookup, but you're still seeing that poo poo in your incoming, and your logging fail2ban/recidive to the rescue

It launches the file manager, and then the user does... what exactly? you just forget about files and hierarchies entirely and when you click save it puts the file in the butt on its own and when you click open it goes looking in the butt
