@wyatt8740 @amyipdev I read that as Jewish for a sec, didn't understand thought for a moment you're Jewish and decided Ubuntu isn't Kosher for whatever reason

Amy (she/her/hers)

@[email protected] @[email protected] yeah it is supported, literally sudo apt install flatpak, was in a PPA before: https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 hahahaha here everything's Kosher and Halal, the difference is whether it serves both Khalavi and Basari, and whether it is open on Saturdays/serves alcohol, respectively, of course

There's actually a government monopoly on this, the Kashrut Authority attempted to force all Khalavi (milk-derived) stuff to be triangular a while back.

Laxystem

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 doesn't count imo, it should be there by default, I don't trust installing flatpak myself, it has magic invoke-admin-cmds-without-admin I don't trust apt (nor rpm for that matter) to install properly

@laxla @amyipdev if your system (flatpak) is so fucking fragile that apt cannot install it then imo it absolutely cannot be afforded to bake it in by default

Laxystem

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 honestly, I gave two main requirements of a flatpak alternative:
* I don't wanna know it's a flatpak. It should work with DNF/APT/whatever local package manager you have in addition to its own CLI.
* Have GTK dark mode work out of the fucking goddamn box thank you very much

Amy (she/her/hers)

@[email protected] @[email protected] oh cool, where're you from? (i'm stuck in orange county, california for now desfortundamente)

Laxystem

@wyatt8740 @amyipdev no it's fine when it's there by default, it's system mutability and Linux permissions magic I don't trust, not flatpak itself.

Giving stuff admin on my already installed system freaks me out, I hate it, lemme put my password in every time for the love of god.

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 Israel

Amy (she/her/hers)

@[email protected] @[email protected] ah

@laxla @amyipdev This is what debian package postinst scripts are for; setting up permissions automatically after a package is installed

Laxystem

@wyatt8740 @amyipdev I know still freaks me out, should be atomic, as in, reproducible on every machine, then if it's a security hazard it's not my fault and someone will catch it on another machine.

Manually installing something like this, even if it's automagically done by DNF, should not be the norm for a desktop OS imo

(I use Fedora)

Amy (she/her/hers)

@[email protected] @[email protected] "manually installing" installing something through apt/dnf/another package manager is not manual

Wyatt (🏳️‍⚧️♀?)

@laxla @amyipdev yeah, i think our views on what a unix or linux system should be are fundamentally incompatible then
because i recoil in horror at the notion of this shit being baked in as a non-removable module of a system. so much extra attack surface.

Amy (she/her/hers)

@[email protected] @[email protected] idk if its still an issue or not but the inability to remove malcontent on Fedora GNOME systems without tossing the entire base system drove me up a fucking wall

Laxystem

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 yeah stuff's absolutely crazy here on these topics.

But truth is even christians eat somewhat Kosher/Halal, it's simply culture by now

Some places sell both Khalavi and Basari, but very few do so together, and when they do, it's clearly marked (same for "contains alcohol")

The "kosher" sign mainly tells you that it's not open on Saturdays nowadays. I eat Kosher and idc about the sign.

Fancy Tel Avivian/Eilatian restaurants are probably the only place you have to worry about truly non kosher/Haram stuff.

Wyatt (🏳️‍⚧️♀?)

@amyipdev @laxla i remove systemd from my debian systems, i can relate. although malcontent is sooo much worse

Laxystem

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 yeah, but it is UX wise, I'm talking about desktop OSes.

Wyatt (🏳️‍⚧️♀?)

@laxla @amyipdev i run a desktop OS.

Amy (she/her/hers)

@[email protected] @[email protected] assuming an initial installation of core debian, are debian branches/spins (thinking devuan) reasonable alternatives for systemd avoidance?
