Did an AI write these bullshit ramblings just parroting PR fluff texts provided by those distros?

Apparently this is about neither DRM

It’s not about the DRM people think about… but the Direct Rendering Manager

UEFI standard requires support for FAT and then can implement other file systems for the EFI System Partition.

But no vendor actually implements any with the exception of those forced to include APFS by Apple. So FAT is the de facto standard for all ESPs for years.

But at that point pihole is just a fancy web interface with some nice looking but for most purposes useless graphs. I just let Unbound filter stuff with the same filter lists pihole would use.

YMMV… but in my experience that whole “time to maintain arch”-idea is overstated.

I defintiely spend less time on issues like “oh, there’s a bug. let’s role that update back and try again in 6-24 hours when it’s fixed” or “defaults changed in a new version, let’s take a quick look at the changes” on arch than on annoying bugs persisting for years in fixed distros. And that’s before calculating the whole “distro upgrade every otehr year”-stuff. Which likes to kill a whole weekend at least and barely ever works (followed by the same “oh, defaults changed” but now on dozens of components at the same time).

And because of that second point in particular even if archlinux wouldn’t be my choice I could never go back to a non-rolling release.

Sounds like every perfectly normal load-bearing wall I have ever seen…

And those who learned from history are doomed to isolation and depression while they constantly warn morons that only look at them blankly for a moment then start calling them insane alarmists…
