  • Three incoherent replies with jumbled run-on sentences.

    the businesses with clean perfect sites tend to be the scams

    Uhhh, no. Objectively no. A legit website is not going to have spelling mistakes and broken links. Looking professional and thorough is a direct lead to increased business. What you just said is completely false, and frankly idiotic.

    Everything else you said (in all three replies) is just a jumbled mess of a brain dump that I'm not even going to try and address any of it.

  • No, I didn't say this "isn't a nice site". I said it's "suspicious as hell".

    Having a working site and a navigable "About Us" page isn't "nice". It's the bare minimum I would expect of any legitimate nice or ugly site.

    There's just a lot on their site that reeks of sloppy scammers.

  • Yes, I remember reading that they've set up vaccination centres for wild birds. No appointments though.

    Edit: I had it backwards. It's by appointment only, and they've had very low vaccination numbers despite all the bird calls.

  • Its so cheap to just get a vps from a littlecreekhosting deal

    This site seems suspicious as hell. Incredibly basic site, no info on where they're located, and the "About Us" links aren't even links. There's no About Us page.

  • Kinda. Generally the user files (including custom installed applications) are on a rw partition. Whereas the system files (OS files, root folder, etc) are on a ro partition. When updates are applied to the core system they come as complete images. No compiling from source on the fly.

    The advantages to this is that it should be near impossible to break your system. If you need to roll back to a previous version the system just/downloads/mounts the previous image. There is less flexibility in terms of changing system files. But the idea with immutable distros is that you shouldn't be modifying system files anyways, and there are different ways to accomplish things.

    A really good example is Android. Android (non-rooted) is kinda-sorta an immutable distro. Except it uses an A/B partition method, where the active system downloads and installs to the other partition, triggers a flag, then a reboot picks up the flag and boots from the newly installed partition. If anything goes wrong, another flag is triggered and it boots from the "good" partition.

    It's not quite the same, but at a high-level it kinda is.

    Edit: article I found about it

  • I'd like to introduce you to BetaNews. The second one of the authors posts an article about anything Linux related, there's this group that jumps straight to the comments about how much Linux sucks, it will never replace Windows, these Linux fanboys need to give it up already, etc. It's so consistent that you could set your watch to what they say.
