My base opinion is flexibility. You blamed first Linux then Wayland now you're what about AMD... What's YOUR point?

You can stick with windows and Nvidia your whole life all I ask is not spread your bullshit from your OP.

See and that's what's backwards from my point of view. Even though I was on win mainly back then I refused to buy Nvidia because of their shitty practices.

I'm talking about your and my behavior not about anyone else. :)

The cause is what should matter because that's what could influence future decisions.

And there is no Wayland mandate anyway so I don't understand that side of the argument either - there is no "Linux" in this room who decided to switch...

How the narrative has turned Nvidias active sabotage into Linux maintainers fault is beyond me.

Latest for their reluctance to act on scalpers it should be transparent what you're getting into with Nvidia.

And then people like you write thing like this... Why?!

Not saying that I'm jealous or anything but.... I am. Please insert here a personal insult that would offend you adequately!

I have several bank accounts and at least here they all use their dedicated app for mandatory 2fa - Bastards..

And yes, literally: don't want to use our app? Don't get an account with us!

Just curious is there any recent quantitative source to this? That statement was "common wisdom" already 20 years ago - 10 years ago I decided to just give it a try - and had issues three times in ten years, all three with missconfigured exchange servers.

And I'm not with a high profile provider either.

Just to make sure: I'm not claiming that you're wrong, I'm simply curious on how lucky exactly I got!

Ohhh now that is awesome and makes sense! Thanks a lot for that find :)

But when I mount a shared /usr on a remote machine it will always have the mount point /usr/local as empty folder - and either have an empty folder or have a mount target that is dependent on a network resource - that's why for me it's so unintuitive.

But then again I started with network stuff way more than a decade after all this got created 🤣

This is really helpful, thank you!

I never understood why the shareable /usr is parent to the non shareable /usr/local. Wouldn't a /usr/shared be way easier especially in the early network days?

If anyone has a link or some insights into this historical nitbit I'd highly appreciate it!

"try to be a decent human being to others" isn't exactly the embodiment of corporate culture though.

I don't see the need to degrade others to get my point across - and I couldn't care less if anyone needs a fucking curse to get their shit across.

I apologize - it wasn't my intention to imply that at all! Emotional self management is a critical skill for managers - and that shouldn't mean "go away, emotions!". A trainer and coach I highly respect phrased it simply: "emotions are. They exist if we like them or not.".

What I intended to convey was "do not use a public platform to channel your emotions."

If this would've been a private conversation I would integrate an explanation of my current situation, feelings and context for my reaction. And also this sounds abstract it can totally be a "dude I'm absolutely pissed. I need you to work with me through this." (this works btw in both meanings of "pissed" ;)).

Oh that was in purpose! It shouldn't matter that I personally am angry. My employees should never NEVER try to prevent me from being angry but focus on doing the best job they can.

That's what I admire about Linus: he realized the negative impact his anger had on the performance of others - and fixed it!

To be clear: I can be angry - but my anger isn't the reason I want things to change. Being angry is MY FAILURE as manager!

Think about it in another way: do you want your colleagues do things they thin prevent you from being disappointed, frustrated or angry - xor do you want then to move your collective goal forward no matter what you'd think.

Another example: if I'd be the one to have caused this communication mess I'd want my employees to call me out - even though I will get angry the moment I realize I've fucked up big time!

As many seem to have overlooked itb this is from more than a decade ago.

And to those setting "not being toxic" == "being vague":

Suggestion if you're in a situation: separate the subject discussed from the person and, to the contrary to what is said in some other posts, be very specific!

Improvised example:

Hey all,

patch xyzz and its aftermath communication is unacceptable.

It's content is not to the standards we have set here (explain).

Even worse, in the communication aftermath we blamed behavior of user space applications for bugs that are within our domain instead of owning up.

The bugs within the kernel will be focused on with highest priority by a, b and myself.

For the communication: (consequences). As explained the patterns shown here are unacceptable.

I have decided to no longer have x as a kernel maintainer on our team/enforce pairing for all communication/set up stricter consequence catalogue. Any specific action,really...

Not perfect as it's very early here, I haven't slept well and I'm not deep into the topic.

Just remember to separate subject to be discussed from person(s) acting please.

And always remember: bad communication is really easy and a lot of managers trained that their whole life! ♥

Disclaimer: also Hobby person but did some more reading on that topic in the past. . Think about what those things are then decide:

The tos are your conditions: I as provider of this service will reserve the right to x. When a user does y I will do z. It's cover your ass for businesses.

A privacy policy on the other hand might be required by law as soon as you process user data in any way. This is something that I would look into your jurisdiction and their requirements. I'd guess Germany is more on the formal side on things (clichés and everything)

In short: you don't need a tos but most likely want one. You don't want a privacy policy but most likely need one. :)

"muddy waters" is a saying, I don't think you should take OP literally. The Rest you've written seems to agree with their sentiment btw.

Do you have any context links? That sed looks like something I'd do after 20h not finding the issue at first glance...

I absolutely second logseq. Would you mind elaborating why/how you use notesnook in addition?

Thanks in advance!

There is literally not one singular(!) arr that does what you're claiming, at least that I'm aware of. The indexing is done by a different thing than the tracking and the downloading.

That's why you end up with 16 of them like OP after all...
