I was content to just watch this conversation play out in silence, as it
proved amusing and even insightful in parts. Even the stuff you've said
in other parts of this thing are actually good.
In this post, that falls apart. Instead of actually taking apart this
person's argument, which is fairly clearly stated, you resort to trash
talking like the tween you act like.
If you had any problem with the ideas behind what Rubén said, you would
have used those arguments to shoot them down. Instead, it's straight to
"ur mom lol".
Maybe it was unrealistic of me to expect professionalism behind the
mailing list of a group of projects that are fairly major in the
software world.
But since you like trash talking so much, Hiro Protagonist wannabe,
here's a little more to wrap this all up: You are the biggest tool I've
ever directly had any contact with, and were somebody to make a
screwdriver the size of the observable universe, that would still be true.
And on the actual topic of this thread, Alpine Linux seems to be a
fairly suckless distro. I'm impressed with its speed and simplicity.
