Not just a death sentence for that Pokémon, approaching the PC was a potential game over!

It's probably technically true that they don't sell it, they just harvest it and sell indirect access to it to anyone who will pay!

If you find that you've spotted a dick on the train either politely look the other way or report them to the British Transport Police

Definitely not an English thing in England, no train here has ever left anyone feeling satisfied

Positional params are the work of the devil; what starts as shorthand quickly turns into a horrible mess

Exactly, wouldn't most of the people who really care already have moved on from Ubuntu?

smeg , vor 2 Monaten an linuxmemes in Yes, it is all Unix

I was going with Linux and ChromeOS being the not-Unix half, and MacOS and FreeBSD being the Unix half. It's all semantics really though!

Half of those are Unix-like. Don't forget what GNU stands for (literally, not philosophically)!

The biggest upside is that Alpine is small. The base installation is about 5 MB! Thanks to that, our development/installation tool pmbootstrap is able to abstract everything in chroots and therefore keep the development environment consistent, no matter which Linux distribution your host runs on. And if you messed up (or we have a bug), you can simply run pmbootstrap zap and the chroot will be set up again in seconds.

Another benefit of the tininess of Alpine - many older devices don't have much storage space to spare, so small system images can be anything ranging from useful to required.

I've only seen it used for docker images because it's so small, but I believe postmarketOS is also based on it

According to the Richard Stallman copypasta: sort of, it depends

I think SteamOS3 does (though you can only use that on a Steam Deck)
