That's what apache says but I'd stay skeptical considering they said the same thing about the 2nd one
its really not that big of a deal
Bullshit
none of them use log4j 2.17.0
Pls don't talk about these issues if you don't understand them, spreading FUD isn't helpful
Yeah it doesn't matter tho since the CVE doesn't apply to Minecraft
Minecraft is not vulnerable to the exploit fixed in 2.17.0
log4j exploit is also on vmware servers so be caureful especially since it is now being used for the TellYouThePassword Ransomware attack.

she secretly loves me bro
why does that need to read and write commit statuses
just authorize it and then yeet it after, ez
ill pass :p
half a minute work lol
yeah last time i did that for some dumb twitter crap people were doing in here, i had tweets posted to my account
twitter lol
and it was faster than i could use it and then deauth, because surprise surprise code is faster than i am

what was first
Well. It is against Discord TOS to advertise without permission.

I thought I had a modge emote but I guess I dont
nooo

haha (in bart simpson voice)

did you try

now in higher quality
discord should allow nitro users to upload larger emojis

I may take a nap.
good luck captain
lazy day for me today
great, the freezing issue is more WSL fun
I really ought to just go back to linux main time. But I always find myself going back to windows on the main PC for games and I hate dual booting
Why does life have to be like this
create your own OS
that wont help with my games they're like drugs to me mana
run two machines and conenct a kvm switch between them
that way you cna just swithc between windows and linux at the push of a button
i don't have a kvm switch and im not going to buy one
i used to run a hypervisor on my pc and passthru 1 gpu to windows vm and 1 gpu to linux but that got old really fast
I still need to finish setting up my home server it's just been sitting on my table
for like 6 months
Why is there still people playing 1.8.9
why is the sky pink
and then complaining about issues
that's been happening forever
because people are idiots.
beautiful sunset 🤤
Besides atmospheric gases, water droplets, and dust particles, air pollutants also determine the sky's color at sunrise and sunrise. Aerosols suspended in the air scatter sunlight into a band of colors. When there are more aerosols or smog, more sunlight is scattered, resulting in purple or pink sunsets.
oh yeah i also need windows for my adobe software for photography (or my macbook but whatever)
adobe make linux ports WHEN
now
i wish
I do not need to be pinged with science witchcraft
I am omnipotent and already know these answers
omnipotent? i think you mean impotent 
There is an unofficial photoshop port for linux but I think it requires a cracked version of adobe cc so im not gonna post it
my skin is fine
could be better
the sun turns more reddish near the end of the day even in very clean air areas because of the relative tilt of the earth and how the light hits the atmosphere, im sure in very polluted areas it's more red, but...yeah, the purple/pink color is not solely created by pollutants
my mom doesnt have hands
she can use her mouth then
that's also why it's blue at midday in clean air areas, because the line is hitting more or less straight down
woo EM waves are funzies
never haha

Fuck Adobe
they dont care about linux in the slightest
There's web browser versions of photoshop now I think
well, sounds like ill always have some sort of windows or mac laying around cause photography. linux is starting to get very good for games but still not enough for me yet
yeah the thing is, i dont do quick and easy
i need camera raw and full photoshop
i work with raw files
that means you gotta actually pay for it 
conver png
Gimp is better
did you actually just say convert raw files to png
lmao
do you have any idea how insulting that is to photographers
:trollface:
he doesnt understand simple 
all that data loss
god damn
its like when people print in 72ppi
oh no
jpeg is fine for a final export
convert raw to jpeg
i do that, after edits have been applied
photography is my passion
this looks like a creepy pasta character
dafuq!
to be clear this is my RAW straight out of camera: http://paper.owo.foundation/6vCKM81.png
here's the edit: http://paper.owo.foundation/7igAGcP.jpg
do I look like I know what a hjpeg is
i still wanna know who changed my name
i just want a picture of a gosh darn hotdog
sorry jpeg? I only talk in png
I need the transparency
a
png is for web graphics
convert it to a 32x32 n64 texture
using it for photography is very evil
@spiral robin hi, they told me to convert my raws into PNGs to edit them with photoshop express on the web
would you like to express your horror as well?
oh ok
Seems fine to me
holy fuck i was not expecting that to be a gif, i had discord in the background and when i clicked on discord it-
brocc changed ur name
aber was so horrified he died on the spot
wishful thinking

I export to gif

get out of my way.
theres your hotdog. keep the change ya filthy animal
yes we are aware, it's been brought up now like 50 times
can we stop talking about it for the love of all that is holy

I guess we truly do live in hell for nothing good remains
adobe's fault
This is a good point, thank you.
as usual
Export to tiff?
that's actually kind of okay
you still lose quite a bit of data though
but if most edits are done, it's ok
oh
I thought tiff only had the same quality as png, I need to familiarize myself with image formats more
SVG will be it then
export to svg 
the thing with raws is that they have pure raw light data. everything the camera saw at the moment the shutter clicked. so if you took a really bright photo but it's not entirely blown out, you can just reduce the light levels and recover the photo to a good exposure and it's not entirely ruined
those other formats get rid of all of that and keep only what is currently selected to show
tiffs are at least lossless though
png is lossless too unless you use an evil png exporter
i guess im gonna reboot and see if i can open IJ cause idk what's going on
the thing with png is the color space though
shudders indexed png color
great for web graphics, not so great for photos
for raster TIFF is the highest quality for Vector SVG is the highest quality and RAW is the raw image cant get better than that.
yup
I find it odd that Discord doesn't use svg for its vector-based animated stickers
they use like some weird adobe format
I was trying to convert them to gif once
id venture to say RAW vs JPG are comparable to ingredients vs a finished dish
I’m just a regular user that converts webp images to png through some sketchy shit website
I don’t need to know about the magic and wonders of images
not today
then go away

webp is the same as jpg but it uses a better algorithm or something
it's sad that apple doesn't support it, but they don't like supporting any formats ever
unless its their own
so true
would be nice if we could replace gifs with webps as it would save a ton of space
or like 20 year old formats
I tried sending an ogg file once 😭
i think discord can play ogg?
not if you are on apple
lmao
but it is funny to see apple users cope when I export my videos in vp9 opus webms and watch apple users get upset that they can't play it
and literally everybody else can play it
I don't understand why apple refuses to support literally anything
like opengl
so they can say they did something revolutionary on their next release
wasnt the opengl just some old compat stuff
opengl is the main rendering api that minecraft runs on I think
or something similar
And now they want everybody to use "MeTaL" which isn't supported on anything other than Apple
inb4 developers just start dropping support for Apple, at least Microsoft supports basic formats
the amount of trouble im having just trying to open these projects via WSL with IJ is too damn high
YouTube has to host legacy h264 and m4a versions of video and audio just for apple devices because apple refuses to add support for anything else
I feel your pain simple.
im seriously this close to dual booting arch again, but i really REALLY don't want to
wsl 2 has xorg support I think
yes i used to run the IDE inside of WSL but it had weird bugs there with context menus
the linux tools inside of WSL make development less painful
anyone here knows if I can make 2 mc villages on vertical within 32 blocks?
vim with 2 billion plugins
I think it was Jroy that had an issue with running it inside WSL when we were doing the initial 1.18 patching process and every single time he made a change, it would have to re-index everything and it took ~5 minutes each time.
i was going to try and see about converting the gateway to cloud-gateway today but i guess WSL and IJ have different ideas glare
How so?
Something with it not watching filesystem or related.
@gritty rampart
i can tail logs easily, more easily run the programs using standard commands, create scripts in bash instead of batch/powershell, more easily install dependencies from the package manager without something cursed like chocolatey or something just to name a few
It's also just fast.
the issue seems to be actually opening the project, if it's been opened once successfully then IJ has no issues opening it
Oh I think I had that too. I ended up just deleting the folder and forgetting about it 😛
No as in I deleted the clone in WSL and just went back to Windows cause at least there it was loading.
:/
It was back when I was working on a patch for the RCE in 1.8.8
I forgot how slow /paper patch is on Windows.

oh cool now IJ won't open at all probably because i killed it and it's pouting
yup
😦
whatever i moved the project to windows for now but this is quite annoying
why do you need wsl
faster, and reasons said above
well at least it loads past gray screen on windows
but now im stuck here http://paper.owo.foundation/8Z76mWf.png

lmao nyan theme
i have to add some light to my life
hey, sorry if this is the wrong channel for this. I was wondering if anyone knows of a simple plugin to change the color of people's names in chat. I run a tiny server for a group of IRL friends so we're not looking for anything role based. Everyone's OP on this server
essentials nickname i think can take color code but id have to test it to make sure of that
I'll check it out thx

now wathcing Toradora

all toradora fans can relate
I have every single gmod compatible game mounted though so that's good
all 30 of them
grats
Although for some reason zeno clash model pack doesn't work, none of the files show up :c
the only solution I found is to manually copy the files to the addons folder which is sketchy
IDK why but I’m still a little nervous about log4shell even after reinstalling my OS with no Java and running Minecraft in a flatpak on the newest launcher 
I am paranoid to say the least
damn thats a lot of games
not that i actively play them
they just get installed, i play them, and then dont remove them
probably should at some point
I wanna remove that game, but, what if the internet goes out?!
oh dont worry, to start it you need to connect to internet to check for patches anyway

the absolute state of gaming in 2021
rockstar moment
shit like that just encourages piracy, like a viable option is buying the game and then finding a way around that online requirement
at least you’re still supporting the devs
all fun and games until they eventually shut down their servers
and then you literally cant play anymore
fr
troll game publishers by [redacted]
remember when the xbox one was going to require an internet connection every 48 hrs
this timeline is dark but that was a darker one
remember how it's the norm now
I was actually watching some retrospective shit on that
The fun thing is that much of the shit they got hurt themselves over literally happened by the industry itself over the years
oh we are still very far from that bs they tried to pull, parker
I remember in HS when we'd have people in our class who'd queue up on a school night to get the next FIFA or whatever and not be in the next day
fifa 
I thought the vanilla Minecraft launcher requires something similar to that now?
i don’t think so
nowadays, people often just seem to preorder the game on their console and get it that way, as they're gonna have to download like 2/3'rds of the game or deal with a day 1 patch for it
good stuff
yeah midnight releases big thing of the past for a while
hmm all i'm missing in java is extension methods now
you can have the entire game preloaded for many games
being able to add util methods to existing classes would be noice
still can't figure out how to launch tf2 without steam
so like
pretty much the same stuff as the xbox one
it just segmentation faults before it reaches the title screen, who knows why
eh, dont think you really can, lots of stuff is integrated with steam api
Why would you want team fortress 2 without steam? It's tightly integrated.
steam is a resource hog
server search, VAC, parties etc
worse than chrome

damn, wasting 16MB
when the sink is so disguising the animators censor it.
odd
32gb of good ram is like $130?
even on multiple os'
just runs in background for me
cpu is cheap too
Is Paper anti X-ray block the texture packs
yes
yes
the only solution I've found is to launch steam without chromium with steam -no-browser but it's pretty unusable like that, still enough to run tf2 though
maybe steam chromium just doesn't like my hardware for some reason
My steam runs fine without gui
I just have it open in big picture mode on the TV, so it blasts everyone's eardrums out.
Is your hardware from 2005?

1.18, 1.17, and 1.16 have all been patched, yes.
log4j counter
iirc paper wasn't directly affected by it, but plugins might've
This is cringe http://paper.owo.foundation/AMgEUMP.png
get your hearts out of my program listing
forgot i had star citizen installed, opened once, kekked at it, then never played again http://paper.owo.foundation/6e5UW8c.png
Is it...playable?
if by playable you mean walk around a few buggy buildings and fly ships, sure
Beautiful.
Well, as you can see that was back in 2020
That may have changed
But, given their average velocity, probably not
Just give them more money.
I don't understand how games can be over 20gb (excluding the save files)
4k textures
ah yes, the texture resolutions that I will never notice
yup, you get them whether you can use them or not
still shipped though
Counter-Strike: Source's textures look really good but the game is only 4gb
a game made how long ago?
aside from the strange few textures that look like they were ripped from a 144p youtube video
with how big of maps?
like 20
sound and video also takes up so much space
still looks better than some modern games
The only reason it stands up is cos the engine was top fire and shit
3.6/10
ppl putting video in their games now???
nice b8 m8
Minecraft :trollface:
Or, I mean, /5, maybe, idk
I forgor that the valve intro is technically a video file even though there is no reason for it to be
alright took my steam games folder from 1.1tb to 361gb
paper unintentionally patched chunkbans :(
idk what a chunkban is
rats!
take ur own folder from 1.1tb to 361gb
its when you can't connect because on join there's so much data or something stupid that it has an exception and kicks you
paper unironically patched tnt duping! sad!

Hi guys someone know a plugin for duels ? I need for 1.17 and Duels doesn t work :/

@stray oyster go to sleep!!!!
@wispy blade five is a grown adult not 12 he can decide when to sleep.
You on the other hand should sleep @wispy blade 
also could be different timezone

@warm anchor i don't have school until at least 2022 so i can afford sleep deprivation
also, i'm going to recreate starcraft on roblos with friends because i have nothing better to do
Do you know sleep deprivation can cause brain damage 
Do you know i have no brain?
That I know 
no wonder my iq is so low
there's nothing to damage then
so yes, i'm learning lua and writing down interesting stuff i think of to implement
oh no are you planning to make lua bindings

I don't know the right place to post a "thank you", but thank you Paper team for your work on the server. I appreciate it 🙂

that's what happens when you turn off the computers and heaters
the computer is on
interesting
i cant run my hvac and computer at same time without throwing the breaker
hm
my system is not running as hot right now though I bet i could really get it going if i tell it to start calculating primes
here we goo now I am thrashing my CPU
staying there not going any higher than that in temp.
decent cooling
yikes
thats not bad under full load
no that's pretty bad
it's a haswell cpu
(49.4444C)
According to all known laws of computer architecture,
there is no way an x86 CPU is able to run.
Its instruction set is too complex to run above 50mhz.
The x86, of course, runs anyways, because Intel doesn't care about overheating
not bad back when i had it air cooled it would hit 160F
my laptop, thankfully, only ever gets up to 90F
71C
wtf
so true
anything above 25°C is unbearable to stay in
my bedroom temp
I must liquid nitrogen sub 0 cool my bedroom so I can run faster
my gpu reaches 100°C when its under full load
i can just put on a make -j3 i guess
damn your GPU must be screaming for help
your computer needs better cooling or your cpu is gonna start boiling
so are my balls, they get very hot cuz i'm under a closed desk lol
baking gpus is a thing
right next to my pc
tbh 195F (90.55C) is the max operaitng temp for my CPU
my cpu never goes above 92F
yeah cpu doesn't really go over 60°C for me
But at the downside that when I run almost any game, it jumps to 92F
140F that is sitll decent.
wtf are you running your cpu in liquid nitrogen
92F is just a hot sumemr day here
it's a laptop...
actually, probably lmao
77F 25C
They knew the cooling solution in it was bad, the fans barely pump out any warm air
If i let SETI run for a while on my system it puts out some heat into the room
my cpu's min speed is 800mhz
apparently it's at 2800mhz rn
I have a billion tabs open rn which is probably why my cpu is so hot
that's literally more than enough to boil water
water boils ~200F ~100C
fr?
give or take a few degrees for altitude
water boils at 100C and freezes at 0C
The boiling point of water varies with atmospheric pressure. At lower pressure or higher altitudes, the boiling point is lower. At sea level, pure water boils at 212 °F (100°C). At the lower atmospheric pressure on the top of Mount Everest, pure water boils at about 154 °F (68°C).
oh wow i never knew that i thought it was like 500c
@fading nexus There are a bunch of pretty cheap host options if you look around. People tend to check Trustpilot and stuff sometimes to see if they're any good.
that 932F
@fading nexus only for the first 60th day
I learned this in school and I am an american @_@
instance may be disabled on the 60th day but once you remake, it will be fine @fading nexus
i am joking
I've bene using it since May
If they wipe you randomly and you weren't breaking a rule they seem to restore it.
You just gotta be good enough to backup and not get hosed.
Oh alright, I’ll keep it backed up
what are rbackups
Thanks guys, appreciate it
they Use celcius in chemstry and in basic chemistry class we learned the boiling and freezing points of water
including superchilling
I use oracle free tier since around it started without issues
bringing the water below 0C 32F without turning it to ice
although take backups, as you always should be doing anyways
No for sure
I'm assuming you're joking
if you are running stuff, download them off too
I do manual ones since the server is only for plug-in showcasing but I’ll setup automatic ones with duplicity or smth
FWIW I signed up for their free tier in January and my instance is still active.
Will do for sure
Although I don't really use it.
for the boot volume
Wait really? That’s pretty cool
its very hidden
And @coarse lily I’d say it’s p useful for plugin showing off
That’s like the main use I’ve found for it
Yeah it can be useful.
It's just not what I'd call trustworthy. Like if you operate under the assumption that it can get yoinked then you're good.
theres a reason you must wear special suits when dealing with molten lava or molten metal.
too cold?
Plus I'm convinced that Oracle is gonna cancel them all eventually anyway.
Chief, I do blacksmithing
Instance > boot volume > Click on the name of your Instance (boot volume) > Click on boot volume backups > create a backup FULL @fading nexus
My forge gets to atleast 2000C
your forge is also enclosed and only has a small opening. if that forge was wide open the ambient temp would be inhospitable
Yeah though I would also do an offsite backup.
The concern is that they delete your account or something.
Coal forge, in a metal shop
If that happens you might lose the backups, too.
they disable it and force you to pay yes
But if it's just testing you don't care about the map as much.
how does it feel when you're standing 1 foot away from 2000c
my forge only gets to 90°C, how are you keeping the silicon solid at that temperature?
im hilarious
Which is where most of the size is gonna be for backups. Plugins and configs are easy enough to save and redploy if stuff get nuked or whatever.
Yeah just grab everything offline
Haha yeah a few people I know got theirs cancelled but they restored it after contacting support.
easpically on 59th day
A pin head heated to 15 million degrees will kill everyone in a 1000 miles radius.
I dunno, it's probably about 40-50C @spare venture
They just had to deal with the "well that data is gone" shit for a little while.
As long as you are pushy enough Oracle support will jsut give you another 30 days
prove it adam

Really the most dangerous thing about it isn't the heat, it's the light coming out of it
Haha if you're polite and pushy, yes. :)
yes
If you stare at a forge you can go blind
That's probably not a good idea then

im sure it hurts before you go blind?
What do you forge?
you can enable discord lightmode and get the same effect.
Pretty much

because welding torches get about that hot and it fucking hurrts if you accidentally look at one
Thanks for all the info guys, appreciate it
np
It also depends on what it is I either need, or what it is I want to build at that time
If you don't break the TOS and keep backups it's a good option to have.
A lot of times if I don't have anything else to do I'll just make a knife or something like that to play with
Sometimes I like getting softer irons and steels and doing twisting, bending, or floral patterns
Just kinda depends on the mood tbh

okay

What happened to Mr. Galbreath?
^
Sigh
Huh
Billy isn't here anymore
He's been gone for quite a while
Fork drama I presume?
More than likely
please keep in mind I disappeared for several months
It wasn't a loud departure
He just disappeared
maybe it was loud in staff chat

Sounds about right
i liked billy, billy was good
Yeah he's there
hes been gone from here for a while
Pretty sure if he left his own server that would've made waves
i dont think its really possible to discuss it without stirring up stuff, so
Alright
gonna summon jroy
nah he only gets summoned when you mention politics

that was the joke
I honestly didn't even realize there was any "fork drama" between Purpur and Paper, I thought it was friendly
^^
i dont think there is any really
You never know what lurks in the shadows
I imagine two people with forks going at it
i just think billy didnt agree with some views here
But anyway this probably isn't a discussion that's likely to be very productive so
How about tacos. Anyone want to buy me some tacos?
i had pita, does that count?
buy me some
PayPal email?
i fucking lvoe tacos
Taco Bell or nothing, take it or leave it

word?
no shot you actually get it
I mean a fork is basically fundamentally a disagreement in project direction
admin@partyrealms.com :simp:
lol
disagreement in project direction doesnt have to imply personal animosity though
but sometimes it does 
true
Yeah sometimes people make forks because they want to do different stuff, or they have some ideas they want to try out.
well, i think purpur/tuinity/all the forks were initially created because all the paper devs were extremely busy and nothing was getting merged
wtf @viscid wedge

Or they want to merge changes and their upstream is going slower than they want.
Buy tacos.
lmao
You'd probably have to ask each project creator why they made them.
wot
thank u soup <3

@static badge Why did you make Tuinity? Was it because you wanted more 1.8 action in the game?

Yum Package Manager has been replaced by DNF Package Manager since many long-standing issues in Yum remain unresolved. These problems include poor performance, excessive memory usage, slowdown for dependency resolution. …
Yum vs DNF
I thought they were just diff names for the same thing but I was very wrong
pacman 
It's godlike but it's for archlinux so you probably can't use it
oh bet for sure
(that is, without using archlinux, which it sounds like you're not)
pacman is the goto if using Arch
I am not 😞 just plain Debian generally
debian is fine, very stable
debian then use APT
Although for the oracle free plan, I’ve been using oracle Linux
apt for debian, yum/dnf for fedora/centos, pacman for arch
oh we're talking servers, yeah i wouldnt put arch on a server 
Why not
running an arch server is if you are a masochist
unless you know what you are doing VERY well, you can fuck it up extremely easily
even if you know what you're doing you can fuck it up just by updating and then you have to manually recover it
Oh jeez
I’ll give it a shot but nothing serious
I just wanna be acquainted with everything
Interesting
but thats also why i love arch, it doesnt hold your hand and lets you do what you want
the developer of arch was a sadist and its users are masochists its literally the S&M of the linux world
That’s p cool in a way
its an OS for experts
Sounds hot
there are a few others like arch too, like void linux and shivers
gentoo
gentoo will really destroy you if you dont know what you're doing and can't read 
well to start with, you compile all your own programs by yourself
gentoo and arch are now used for bootable rescue environments now though like systemrescuecd for example
including the kernel
Woah what
however the manual and wiki for gentoo is great (same for arch) so if you can read and are willing to do so, then using either one is not bad at all and is a great experience
pure, raw performance
every program is built specifically for the parameters of your hardware
Well that’s kinda cool
gentoo linux is for the diehard linux users
So you can get really good performance in specific situations compared to other OSes?
@potent fossil arch isn't that bad
Or is it negligible
im aware, im on arch right now
The bad part about using arch for servers is that it's network handling is a bit obtuse
What’s wrong with it?
dont get me started on trying to run arch in a vm
broken packages do sometimes make it into the community repo so simply updating your server can lead to a boot failure is what i mean
damn pain in the fucking ass
and you really can't dispute that, it happens
but also recovery isnt that bad
but you have to know how
Does it actually make that much of a noticable difference?
uh, what
im not talking about the AUR im talking about the pacman repos...
a bad kernel update was released in just the past few weeks and broke quite a few workflows, so some users were manually downgrading
it happens
Yeah it definitely doesn't help that they're bleeding edge
thats my point
Are there good performance benefits with gentoo?
maybe not on fast hardware but it can yes
Not really @fading nexus
Oh aight
I've really only used Ubuntu, Debian, some crap on my surface pro, and then wsl
its not really that big of a deal, it's mainly for people who love the idea that the programs are compiled specifically for their hardware 
Gentoo's big deal is it's compatibility and ability to basically be whatever you want it to be
It gains the compatibility by having you literally build everything for your platform
Locally

arch by default does not have a graphical interface so if you want a graphical interface on arch you need to manually add one.
if you want a distro with a graphical interface Debian releases including Debian based spinoffs like Ubuntu and Mint is the way to go
Don't have to worry about precompiled binaries on a repo if you're downloading source and compiling locally on your machine
yeah i got sick of developing on Windows with WSL so im currently about to install arch again on my main desktop. Right now I'm on my trashy laptop with arch on it. Just waiting for windows to finish clean reinstalling before I go to install arch
(@ glare)
Honestly the best distro in my opinion is Fedora
Thanks for all the info guys, really appreciate it
Can't really beat it
Don't think I've ever used it but I know anyone who uses it will definitely tell you that they're using it
@fading nexus You brought out the linux users
Really stable, moves to newer kernel quickly, well maintained
You started something
agreed I actually like both Fedora Server and Fedora Workstation
Worst distros?
stuffs a bunch of C4 up Invader's ass and waits for it to go off.
CentOS 8
Manjaro is what I used on my surface pro for a bit
centos 7 and below good centos 8 is bad
Anything else then temple os is bs ....
But it's too bleeding edge to the point of constantly being unstable. If you're happy to spend a lot of time trying to figure out what packages are stable or not then use it, but otherwise the delta between it and Gentoo kinda makes it worthless
It's a good base, and certain distros based off of it are nice, but just raw Arch is a pain in the ass
Debian is good unironically
Fedora is good
it indeed is unironically good
Ubuntu gets shit on but it's fine
nah it deserves to get shit on
I’ve had decent experiences with it
Probably one of the easier just out of the box experiences which is extremely valuable for deployment
I mean arch really isn't that unstable. It can be if you're idiotic and don't check what you're about to install, but if you are semi-intelligent and can read (which, I've learned, most people can't and won't) then yes you're going to have a bad time
centos 8 is not recommended for a produciton enviroment
well, i guess that's the selling point yeah
Yeah, but like, why bother at that point?
For me, it's fun
@ashen nacelle what’s unstable about it?
I bet the Gentoo guys would have fun compiling the Windows XP leaked source code and to run it 
Centos8 is officially Centos Stream which is Bleeding edge and is no longer supported by RedHat.
I mean, you aren't wrong @tropic flame
But Gentoo really isn't that bad
Ty
It's way better documented than Arch is
lack of documentation on Arch is why it is preferred by machochists.
what the fuck
arch is probably one of the most documented operating systems
have you seen the arch wiki
this proves my point
most people can't and won't read lmao
the arch wiki is amazing
Comparatively to Gentoo the Arch wiki/documentation is a mess
Gentoo is certainly also very documented
It's a wiki
no
thanks
you're welcome
Gentoo's main utility comes from extremely non-standard configurations being fully supported
You can compile your entire system against musl but still use systemd, for example
Or set global CFLAGS and force everything to be compiled with SafeStack
Or both. And that's something the distribution maintainers will fully support your doing.
People actually did this when it was leaked. The tree was incomplete so they had to patch it up somehow to get a working build, I don't remember the specifics.
Snaps are objectively the worst cross distribution package format, and you will not ever change my mind. With that, I am going to stop spamming #general until someone else responds.
soup 
@viscid wedge I completely agree
I just want to know what the advantages are of snaps over like
Normal packages
They're sandboxed
Then just use docker?
And ship the application's entire runtime dependencies
Why not just use docker tho
Different goals
Just yet another linux aspect where somebody makes something and canonical basically pushes yet another thing
You don't really see people dockerizing GUI applications. Docker isn't without faults either tbh.
I mean that’s fair I suppose, but why is it the worst cross platform format?
It's the fattest and slowest
And hey tell that to r/homelab
