@lunaa @yura @torvalds I know...

There's a reason Distros like , and almost all systems using or want to get rid of if not replace it with something like , ,or another ...

Because glibc bricking stuff with minor updates kills any and any non- that can't be recompiled.

And what RMS et. al. may see as intentional, I think is the biggest issie that prevents from dominating |s!

@arialdo @xenodium and even if I wanted to have these, why would I "choose" these over 's integrated substitutes and/or + "portable" / standalone binaries of the tools in question.

@vwbusguy @benjamineskola @josephholsten @fuchsiii personally, I've also had some use time with on but that's just because I have on occasions dealt with devices and have a copy of .

And yes, I'm still intrigued on the idea of a distro that one can blindly autoboot into and that automatically opens up to allow for remote login if not automatically opens it's own SSH tunnel.

Kinda like ...

@greymatter @sataa @ncommander @ActionRetro I think that is showing the way by yeeting all the & shit out of the system.

The fact that is the most stable & on is a shame and testiment to the lack of fucks given by and other projects.

, , and are working solutions espechally in setups where are seen as unstable .

Ok, so basic posting via API is a piece of cake, once I figured out I was using the ash shell instead of the bash shell (BusyBox clone on iOS). Now to think of something stupider than usual to do.

I am learning QEMU . I’ve come to a point where I can move nimbly.

Can you point me to some interesting projects in which it is used?

I wonder why I should use instead of ?

Do you recommend that I use QEMU with any system?

Nice to-the-point post from @geerlingguy helped me set up a as an NFS server. A single-purpose NFS server can make a nice way to delivery files when you cross-compile on a different machine.

One thing I learned while setting up a client though, it seems like NFS shares in fstab aren't always mounted at boot. I had to add a little rc script on a system to mount the share right after the network comes up.
