Why does systemd suck so much?

I see linux supports the Dazzle DVC90 capture card.

On a 64-bit operating system, the device is picked up but I only get audio.

I remember years back, like maybe Fedora 14, it worked on an old 32-bit PC from the early 2000's.

Is my only option still to try it on a 32-bit linux OS?

Regarding post number 60538126

install ubunut

You won't take part because you know it's true

>muh boot speed

Thing that matters

Why is there some attention slut in my /fglt/ OP?

Especially when you have to reboot so much due to systemd's instability

or shitty poorfag hardware

Is Arch just a meme distro?

No. It's good easy to setup bleeding edge OS

It's decently popular, so does that make it a maymay?

Don't worry, I used GIMP.

Is Void Linux just a meme distro?

help

ty bb

The problem is Linux not systemd

You can get bigger numbers by having a halt script :^)

...

nice

It's good if you don't like systemd

what the fuck

and package availability

Thank you friend

What is that ugly pixel in the middle of your scrot?

even chinkpad is faster than your shit

center*

How...

it has packages that are not available on ubuntu though

yeah, like xbps

why wouldn't anyone like systemd?

Perhaps Void Linux is a botnet or honeyport????? I'ts Void a trap????

I dont need all this bloat in my init system.
Yes systemd was orginally an init system,and that was alright.Until it became everything that isnt an init system

this, literally the NSA
that was the plan

It's an FBI backdoor

backdoors make me horny

I'm on debian stable on a ssd and the default is more or less the same. Mine only takes way more time because I have to decrypt the disks and login to my user.

how to escape the void botnet? what are the alternatives?

>Void is a Trap's backdoor
>mfw

how do i get my 256color capable gnome-terminal to say that it is a xterm-256color without forcing it through .bashrc or something

Just use Wewd, it's a fork with Void removed.

Arch

Arch,
what's up?

We need Void GNU/Linux NOW!

Now seriously... Void is a trustworthy distro?

Gentoo + OpenRC is pure kino

how many developers work on void?

no. it has 0 documentation

LOL

Somewhere between 0 and 1.

How do i get font rendering like that?

install ubunut

if any of you lads want to add me on steam to play some game- oh wait, this is a linux thread.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Vanilla Antergos

But you're willing to happily install 35 dependencies specifically for a single program which you really need/want, don't you.

Stop LARPing

whats better?
Ubuntu LTS or non LTS for Desktop?

Actually no.
If it has too many deps for what it does, i find an alternative.Nothing needs 50 deps to be feature complete.

shill pls.

Depends. Post your hardware

Grow up.

Hey Kevin Robinson the Solus Shill

How can I get Flowblade running on Solus? I downloaded the source (which is some python files), did the setup.py to build it then install it, but when I run it I get something about an mlt module not being there.

Top is after infinality OSX2 config is enabled, bottom is without.

Cannot tell which is better

bottoms :^)

>there is a temperature patch for htop
gentoo users might like this

No i think top is better because it is darker and thus more defined

Is there a USE flag or something??

>gentoo users might like this
Ohh I see what you did there lol
