Since when was it 2021

Systemd isn't botnet. If you think it is look To the code for yourself

You're retarded. Use GNU/Void Linux everyone

>Systemd isn't botnet
>literally 8.8.8.8 built-in

Giant binary blob written by a bunch of glow in the darks; also makes every system run like ass.
>totally not botnet guiz!

systemd and linux foundation killed linux

I was looking on that personally today; found the 8.8.8.8 on files; but they are disabled by default.

Am I missing some other files which is enabled by default?

Never trust any piece of software written by people like the ones behind systemd

Thank you buddy.

Newfag here.

Could I have a short explanation on what the actual consensus about everything being a botnet is?
I mean, what's behind the theory: google, microsoft, etc. want to use our systems for data mining, to spy us, to do research, or for what purpose and, most importantly, why should I even care?

>Why would I even care if a big ass Mandingo dude enters my home and slaps my gf in the ass every night and leaves leaving the door open?

Man, Mozilla is trying to drive away everyone except the most tech incompetent trannies lately. Is this corporate suicide or something?

B-but it's not the same.
I mean, why should I care if they probably use it mainly for ad purposes and for data mining? As long as they don't interfere with my desires, goals, entertainment, etc.

The same reason I told you in the greentext post bro.
Don't let the Mandingo slap your gf's ass (your computer in this case)

It's not a theory, it's fact. The data, the research, the spying, it's all about revenue and power. Data sells, it's all for advertising purposes, ads make money, this is why adblockers are hated by websites and companies. This data also goes to the government and while many have said that the data won't be used against people, the recent right-wing purge on social media has proven otherwise. It may not affect you now, but it could at some point. It's the same thing with gun rights, police brutality is already a thing, but if all guns are banned, then nobody has a chance of doing shit about it.

This. The people that encompass the general public are the same people that can go and work for these organizations. If you aren't willing to tell everybody in the world every little detail about your life, then why would you trust the same kind of people who have supreme authority over you with this information?

I was gonna posting something along those ways, but you did it better.

Now bro, I'm thinking of installing Parabola or Void, but I hope I won't get the same "stable" result as I have in a Debian stretch system. What do you recommend me? I'm not very "excellent" with computers, but I can set up things perfectly if I take the time.

>the word botnet is used by hate groups
So if I hate being spied on, does that make me part of the KKK?

Have you done that?

Debian is free by default and is one of the best distros you can get period. Although the two main issues that keep it from being recommended are the FSF's strict guidelines for free software and it having SystemD. You could either use Devuan instead (Debian fork without SystemD) or simply remove and replace it yourself.

>being this slow

> systemd, freedesktop, linux
What the fuck is the argument for these being botnet?

That one line of disabled default configuration where systemd may be instructed to use a Google server as DNS or such? Lel.

Debian 9 here - re the first two links, the DNS entries are commented out and also blank (ie no 8.8.8.8 or anything elses.)
Regarding the last link, what's the issue with this systemd-mount?

>systems for data mining, to spy us, to do research
All of this. If you don't care about this share your history browsing with us. We promise we won't sell to anyone

Would you recommend Debuan or Xubuntu for a shitty old netbook with 1GHz dual core APU and 2GB ram?
The processor is the shittiest thing I've ever tried. Windows 7 or 10 are pretty slow on it.

didn't notice that, i was more concerned that the three linked articles to the side look like they're out of Gay Hustler or something

>Demographic viewing content that does not align with their views could be any medium of entertainment or news.
>Use the data collected and to meddle with the medium and push political agenda onto newcomers.

Everything these retards don't like is a botnet, senpai.

Almost any distro should work on that. Just pick your programs well.

Sure, Gentoo would be needlessly troublesome if you used this machine to update itself vs compiling on a faster desktop machine in the network.
Then again, it's not that different from what people had when Gentoo started, and between compilers getting better and programs getting bigger it's almost neutral overall [save for some bloat browsers and office suites].

>BSD
>Void
wtf nigga we have Gentoo w/ openrc

I still don't know if I should really leave Debian stretch.
It works wonders and systemd is not compromising anything of my system so far. SO FAR. I still fear for it so much.

1. Are the alternatives for systemd really good?
2. Do I really need all the "improvements" systemd does for us?
3. OpenRC or SysV and which distro?

Using unrelated insults should be below the standards of repetition-worthiness for this korean shopping forum.

Many better insults came from here.

>OpenRC or SysV and which distro?
there are dozens
do you absolute need something debian like?
Try devuan. Or MX Linux mxlinux.org/
Other alternatives: Emmabuntüs, 4MLinux and PCLinuxOS
Or simply move to Slackware

I think I don't wanna have to compile stuff often. I was told against debian on this system by some user if I remember correctly.

>1. Are the alternatives for systemd really good?
Multiple are fine, but systemd is good too.

> 2. Do I really need all the "improvements" systemd does for us?
You probably can live without them.

But you can also probably live without every last command in vim; doesn't mean having & knowing some of these isn't nice.

> 3. OpenRC or SysV and which distro?
Between these? Definitely OpenRC. Would be my main go-to apart from systemd on a desktop/server type of machine.

>we

>I think I don't wanna have to compile stuff often.
Makes sense. I don't say you should; but if you wanted or had to, it wouldn't actually be the biggest disaster.

> I was told against debian on this system by some user if I remember correctly.
Someone always doesn't like a distro.

In terms of amounts of RAM and CPU spent doing things, they don't actually vary much between Ubuntu/Mint/Debian, Fedora, Sabayon, Suse and so on if you use the same software anyhow.

It's mostly about picking software well enough. Awesome or dwm are going to be less resource consuming than KDE or GNOME, mpv is generally going to be lighter than kodi, st beats urxvt, and so on.

You probably don't need to do all THAT much to get to an okay state of affairs with 2GB RAM + some swap and a dual core APU, though. It's weak enough that you can't run every bloated thing at the same time, but it's surely not an exercise in really picking everything utterly minimalist for it to work.

>At least we still have BSD and Void
A 64bit desktop minix would be nice.

minix3 amd64?

Well, my hard drive is slow as fucking hell, so the swap will probably be shit performance wise.
Other than that, I heard Xubuntu (not Ubuntu) is pretty nice for low spec comps and old laptops.
Don't overestimate the dual core CPU. It's way worse than a pentium 4, for example. Seriously, it sucks. Sometimes it stutters while watching .264 720p videos.

>Well, my hard drive is slow as fucking hell, so the swap will probably be shit performance wise
Linux is pretty good at this regardless.

> Other than that, I heard Xubuntu (not Ubuntu) is pretty nice for low spec comps and old laptops.
XFCE can save some resources over GNOME, sure.

But there won't be much of a difference to just installing XFCE on Ubuntu and selecting that on boot (hell, even with GNOME still installed).

Basically use your package manager to drop stuff that uses too much resources and use more lightweight programs until it works alright.

OK redpill me on freedesktop, hows xdg and mime botnet?

That's the joke.

I hope you're joking; that screenshot is obviously faked. if you're just trying to prompt a discussion, that isn't bad either, but it honestly should belong in Sup Forums if that wasn't already Sup Forums 2.0

>Botnet is often used by hate groups to describe building a better world.
There is no way that sentence makes sense except as a low effort way to claim that everyone who disagrees with you is evil.

OP, the image you posted is literally fake news. Good thing there's a containment board made specially for you, you should stay there.

I love how they can't even use their favorite word "diverse/diversity" anymore because everyone knows now that it just means hate

a russian did this

It's really disappointing seeing a news article on your feed about a drag race and it does not contain the type of trannies you were expecting.
