Reverse perspective is more about symbolism than distance AFAIK

You'll need to find an extended explanation on your own but in essence - religion. The focus is on symbolism, and not on realism as it diverts attention and doesn't help you describe scenes from the bible.

I remember seeing some examples of paintings made by the same artists for secular and religious purposes, and the secular ones were realistic. But it's been quite a few years ago and the only thing I remember is that they might have been Italian painters working in the Eastern Roman empire that were recognised due to the messed up alphabet.

I also think that the Unix philosophy holds back software that could be good.

IMO the UNIX philosophy is the reason why Linux survived. Imagine if every distro had a single DE, or you had issues with pulseaudio and couldn't replace it with pipewire.

You shouldn’t prioritize it over good battery life and low overhead.

And why would separating functionality into different tools cause you to have a worse battery life? You don't get to have tlp on other OS because it's all integrated

I disagree with @Shareni@programming.dev (sorry!)

Don't say sorry for making an actual argument, or are you some Canadian lol?

at least 15 contributors left a few days ago

According to this list there are 3470 maintainers. Were those 15 doing so much work to warrant calling it the end of days?

What this means is that you risk your packages getting out of date, including slow delivery of security updates

A possible delay for some package updates vs certainly outdated packages in my native Debian. Not really a choice IMO

Animals are machines, humans have free will and therefore can choose to lift

Internet is strange place

That's how I feel as well. IMO it's ridiculous that Fedora wants to remove xorg completely from the repos in the next version.

It's obvious in the light of pure reason that everyone needs to lift

Thanks I didn't know that. Arcan seems to have kept WM's separate.

Just use Nix and see where the drama goes in a year. I'm guessing your configs will be fully compatible or only require minimal changes, if the forks survive that long in the first place.

I'd suggest learning nix, flakes, and home-manager before going anywhere close to NixOS. This should help you out

Yup, the euthanasia coaster

OLIGARCHY!

Nope, I meant that the wayland compositors are inflexible monoliths that are so tightly integrated into a DE that they can't be replaced. Xorg might be bloated, but it follows the UNIX philosophy closely enough that each part of the stack above xorg can be trivially replaced.

Sure, but that doesn't change the fact that Wayland compositors are forced to be inflexible monoliths that need to be so tightly integrated into a DE that they can't be replaced.

Edit: I've just learned that it's not forced, but that every compositor used by popular DEs is an inflexible monolith by choice.

In xorg the server, wm, and compositor all do their own thing and can be replaced trivially. It took me like 5 minutes to replace xfwm4 with i3, and that included the research.

That was so bad that vim users needed to make nvim to handle Emacs envy, and every modern ide tries to do the same in worse ways.

Sega took that as a challenge
