I disagree. It’s very detailed and I think it can both help a novice and help a novice become less of a novice.

I don’t get it… Does this tiny change ruin it for you?
Fastest help is Archwiki, even if you run Ubuntu…
You seem like a person who is afraid to hold their bro’s hand…
It’s kind of funny, but also holding someone’s hand does not mean you are sexually attracted to them. It’s kind of heteronormative assuming someone is homosexual because they hold the hand of someone of the same sex. Don’t impose your norms of self expression to others…
I like GNOME because I don’t want customizability.
OK, I like a bit of customizability, but I’m not a designer and trying to make things look consistent and nice is a pain. I once spent days making an icon theme work in Xfce (the freedesktop standards for naming icons are not followed by anyone… (meaning both Xfce and icon themes))
I use GNOME as is and accept it and everything is swell.
Also I use a laptop and I’m addicted the three-finger swipe window preview…
The *NIX philosophy, that you describe, is having a bunch of small programs do specific tasks. Monolithic means having one large thing do all the tasks. Maybe the confusion comes from the fact that the Linux kernel is monolithic. They tried to make a FOSS Unix clone before Linux was a thing, but I think they failed (see GNU Hurd). What it means for a kernel to be monolithic or not, I have no idea… I assume the same, but on the kernel level.
Pretty sure that’s the opposite of monolithic
OK. We are not gonna convince each other. I’m leaving you with this:
So that’s where you draw the line in war crimes. It’s OK if a kid loses its legs in 10 years but not OK if it happens now…
Also, if the other guy is doing it, you can do it as well…
Would you mind torture being used for “Russia to get the fuck out of Ukraine”?
Fair is fair in love and war
That’s basically the excuse for every war crime…
Is this fair?
Don’t click if you don’t want to see horrific things
Many countries (not the US, Russia, or Ukraine) consider cluster bombs illegal. I worry seeing people applauding the use of such weapons…
Kind of crazy that Ubuntu has some packages exclusively as snaps…
hot take: maybe Game of Thrones should have been destroyed
Ok. I understand what you are saying, and there might be historical reasons for the founders of Rocky to believe they can defend better against a takeover by being a PBC. I don’t know if that’s true, I’m not a lawyer. The thing is that if an organization can legally make a profit, I don’t trust that it does not. I’m not trying to insult Greg Kurtzner, I don’t know him. But I wouldn’t need to trust him if they had made a non-profit.
And sure, Alma exists because of funding from corporate interests, but so does the Linux kernel, and GNOME, and probably a large percentage of free software. That’s the point of copyleft, when companies improve free software it remains free.
Personally I’ve never used RHEL, CentOS, Rocky Linux, or AlmaLinux. I was just curious why Fermilab and CERN chose Alma instead of Rocky, which I had heard about more. I found out and I believe they did the right thing, hence the headline. I have no fucking agenda. (maybe you do)
PS: The whole thing, including this post, assumes that Alma and Rocky have the same goal (which apparently is no longer true), and that non-profits can make no money (which… WTF IKEA).
I’m kind of a beginner… Can someone explain why you would make/use/have a dynamically and/or weak typed language? Is it just to not write some toInteger / as u64 / try_from()? I mean the drawbacks seem to outweigh the benefits…
