^^^^^ This, so much this.

I cannot ever re-watch this goddamn movie for that performance. I hated it back then, and hate it even more now knowing it came true.

… also F-U to Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, perhaps Luc Besson just exists to piss me off. What a shitty movie with horrible casting and overall stupidity.

Edit: … and yet, here I am. Sigh.

Exactly. Like the COBOL coders around Y2K did.

Solidarity, brothers and sisters! If you or your co-workers find yourselves in this situation make sure you hold out for higher pay, better hours, more vacation – anything – if you accept a return offer. Make them (the C-class, the billionaires who did this) pay in at least some way.

Holy hell, wasn’t expecting that many downvotes. Wow. I wonder who I pissed off more, systemd or Wayland folks? :P

That’s fine, this is why Linux distros should always be diverse, to allow users to build their system using the tools of their choice. And why one project should never be in a position to unilaterally obsolete entire subsystems by fiat. Which is what I fear is being attempted here – that was my point.

Debian has a lot of sway, but if they make moves some of us don’t agree with, we have the freedom to go elsewhere. Thank you, Devuan maintainers, for what you’ve done so far.

Sad though, as I was an OG Debian fanboy, using it since the late 90’s.

Unless they absolutely guarantee feature-parity with the existing C-based utils, this smacks of Wayland-ism.

Debian is really losing the plot IMO. Glad I switched to Devuan some time ago.
