Distrowatch ranking is just the distros that are more commonly searched on the site. The FAQ says “The page Hit Ranking represents hits per day by unique visitors”. It’s just an attempt to see what’s more popular among visitors.

Yeah, maybe there is a feedback loop where people will click on the top one just to see why it is on top, and in doing so they give the clicks necessary to remain on the top.

So the world is now wasting energy and resources to generate AI content in order to combat AI crawlers, by making them waste more energy and resources. Great! 👍

Her name is Masha, but I call her “Estás bien fea” (“you are so ugly”). She doesn’t mind.

“Noooo bro, it’s not a Nazi salute. He did something that looks exactly the same and with the same intention, but it’s not a Nazi salute.”

I know a song that gets on everybody’s nerves.

Jarro Negro. Made by Mexican students. And as far as I know, it’s independent, not based on another distro.

It will be as successful as the meta verse!

All that extra processing power for the AI to just say: “you should have listened to the scientists years ago”.

Also, I have family that are large-scale farmers, so they have first-hand experience with agriculture practices and technology. I have other family members that are researchers on soil ecology and related fields. And I was a researcher (at a completely unrelated field, I admit) and I read lots of literature about the subject, because I had access to all scientific journals at my university. But yeah, “I’m naive”, lol.

Literally you are repeating the same argument. Come back when you have a new one.

You are exactly the type of person I’m talking about 🤦‍♂️.

The technology of GMOs is awesome, it will help us solve several problems, some related to food supplies, and other problems in different areas like healthcare. We can develop food with more nutrients. Crops resistant to most common plagues. We use it to create insulin without needing to harvest tons of pig’s pancreas. The technology itself is completely safe and full of potential.

But most uneducated people think that “GMOs = mOnSaNtO” and want to ban all of them only by the actions of a company that no longer exists (yeah, now owned by Bayer, but whatever). And even most of that bad reputation was caused by myths and defamation. Just because one company that developed GMOs was a dickhead doesn’t mean that GMOs are bad, in the same way that electric cars should not be banned because of Elon Musk.

Edit to add: like with any technology, it needs to be extensively regulated to prevent monopolies or other abuses.

Being against GMOs is like wanting to ban electric cars because Elon Musk is a dickhead.

Mexico is so hard-as-fuck that was not included in the list.

One day on my main Arch installation I created a container inside a directory, and “booted” into it by using systemd-nspawn. When I was done with it I decided to do a rm -rf / inside the container just to be funny. Then I noticed that my DE on the host froze and I couldn’t do anything. Then I realized that systemd-nspawn mounts some important host’s directories on the container, and I deleted those when I did the rm -rf /. I didn’t lose anything, but it was scary.
