Kinda a rant, but most forks are in no way reputable. Fork systemd as much as you want, fork everything as much as you want, good luck keeping up with the changes and actually being as reliable.
- X spin applies for any distro providing spins, like Debian, void, arch install, etc
Imagine forking systemd instead of just using a better alternative
When a lot of the programs revolve around it, there really isn’t a better alternative.
Good try California government
Are we going to acknowledge the irony of ranting against forking to protect freedoms on a platform formed as an alternative to protect freedoms?
Its literally a bash script. Dont know how hard that is to maintain at that scale but my guess is not that hard for now
Like I said, why does it have to exist then?
its a protest against the bill passed in california, for californians. if you dont like it, dont use it, its not for you anyways
No law maker is going to look at a unused district fork as a valid protest.
To distribute at scale? Whats easier? Everyone making their own bash script for this or one extremely pissed of guy making his available for everyone? I truly don’t understand your rant or hate unless you love corporations pushing age verification onto open source hobbyists to kill them. I read that entire site at Ageless Linux and left with a rock hard erection and hatred. It inspired me. So sorry if you don’t feel the same way but Ageless Linux is awesome actually because it lays the emperor bare and naked in every conceivable way.

Either you increase your attack vector by running a bash script and risk breaking your entire repo by changing your $release or youre a dicksucking corpo
Anything else? Or do I have to continue?
because it lays the emperor bare and naked
In what way? Please, seriously, tell me. If I change my $release to this, does my distro maintainer suddently stop implementing any age stuff? Because honestly I don’t think this is how FOSS works. If you don’t like it, fork it and maintain it.
Honestly this is just as much a protest as the clippy profile pictures. You can say you did something, but you were just as complacant as those embracing it.
You clearly never even read the site. Gow about you, educate yourself agelesslinux.org
I encourage you to read it and sse what they are doing. Its too.much for me to explain here but in short the bash script.stubs or removes APIs for age verification. They are then handing these out to children as defined by thenlaw as soon as it goes into effect.
Because… Who cares?
Ageless Linux is important because they’re doing activism. They say they want to distribute devices made to not follow Californian law for free to kids. That’s why it’s important, not just because it’s a distro. As a distro is near to useless.
I know this is mostly a meme, but I think it’s important to clarify this.
“They’re doing activism.”
Holy lolling fuck. That’s activism now.
Is it not? They’re opening themselves up to a lawsuit so they can argue against it in court.
And they’re also giving away stuff for free to kids to learn computing
I’m still running the last release of Hannah Montana Linux. Just waiting for something better to come out.
You can buy yourself flowers, write your name in the sand, talk to yourself for hours, say things we don’t understand, you can take yourself dancing and you can hold your own hand…
But you can’t roll your own linux distro?
But you can’t roll your own linux distro?
You can, but it wouldn’t be better than Hannah Montana Linux.
Man, when it first released it came in like a wrecking ball.
