This map is incomplete. We have 1 GW capacity of hydro chained in 3-4 power plants on just 20-30kms of river near our city, its nowhere to be found on this map.

That's serveral conjectures on your part. Give me metrics about the minority and then back up the fact that most of those people never wrote a sysinit or rc script by hand.

Like it or not Systemd breaks the Unix way and for a certain amount of people (I am not pretending to have a measuring stick) the dogma and philosophy are much more important than perceived ease of use or features.

Yeah the OP is quite correct. Ask your generic web developer about nuances of HTTP, SSL or even networking in general.

This is a very funny list.

"Sane defaults", are you going to be arbiter of sanity? With the #3 recommendation, "set up systemd for me", I'd rather not have you at that position.

Most of the bullets you wrote induce a "...why?" thought in somebody that has ZFS experience. Why would you unify zpool and zfs? Why would you want automatic weekly scrubs on as default? Do you realize what ZFS scrubbing is and when is the time to perform it?

I'm a bit agitated by your writing I must confess. You want ZFS to exactly reflect your basic use case so you don't have to move your little finger (automatic naming, automagical configuration). It's not meant to be a hands-off filesystem, you are expected to understand encryption in ZFS in order to use it.

But the most annoying thing is that you did see a steeper learning curve, and want to avoid it. Why don't you write your own ZFS provisioning tool? Why are you still using /dev/sda and not disk-by-UUID or something more 2023? Etc.

And OpenBSD has how much share in workstation/graphics market?

200MB download, 500MB install. "Lightweight text editor"

There are

- text editors

- programmers text editors

- integrated development environments

- rapid application development tools

Sorted by size, reversely proportional to feature set. Basically VSCode is an overbloated #2, that isn't good enough to be #3 and is nowhere near #4.

You could've fit a full blown RAD into 500MB (Borland C++ Builder) 20 years ago.

It's a bit of clonky writing, but in proper English "its boot speed" relates to the algorithm and not the FreeBSD kernel

The simple part is UX people working with UX stuff, such as GTK or QT themes. The hard to impossible part is getting a typical open source UNIX desktop to look and behave as cohesive as Windows or Mac. It's a technology issue and not an asset issue.

As for beautiful UIs QT has made a step forward with the Qt Quick and Qt Designer which allow a more UX workflow for the UI as opposed to old school dialog/form design.

QA needs to be paid. Largely nobody is doing QA as a passion. As for UX, if these are the same wizards working around Windows/mobile/web, then please keep them away by all means necessary.

That list is not correct for Europe/Southern Europe at least. Nobody expects anything. The most tipping is done by rounding up. You have a 1.8 euro bill for coffee, you leave 2 euro.

The biggest difference between NA and Europe is that in NA a lot of people work for tips, as in, they're going to try to service you to get them. This is not the way it works in Europe, waiters do appreciate tips especially in places that have lower purchasing power, they will take your order, bring your food, bring your bill, and be on disposal if you want to call them anytime, but they're not going to try to look outgoing and approachable and hassle you with "is everything ok" questions for better tip.

That's pure conjecture, you don't know that. Yes if you ask someone from continental part, on a typical central european estate, "do you like nudism" ofc the answer will be no. Ask people that live in the towns that have nudist zones under their jurisdiction, that's how you get relevant answers.

No, Croatia is not "very socially conservative". It is maybe a bit more conservative than typical EU state which is still way more progressive than American notion of "conservative" let alone "very conservative".

Then the thing is that places mentioned in the thread are not conservative at all. Coastal towns are not conservative.

I come from Split and I have never ever had any troubles or whatsoever of being shirtless. You know that we only have those fines because of uncultured tourists. Because they think they can enter museum or bank in their swimsuits.

Also there have always been undesignated nudist zones everywhere. There's one 20 minutes walk from Split downtown. On the islands, wherever urbanization stops, there could be naked people on the rocks of the shoreline. They just move a bit away, like 200-300m further from the last accessible beach in the area, and sun on the rocks. Every child that has spent more than 2-3 hours in a boat in Dalmatia was bound to see naked human genitalia up front or in the distance.
