   @mhoye Not that the BSDs are in any way a bad option, but don't forget that it's entirely reasonable to use Debian without systemd. I'm doing it now.

   It's well-supported by active volunteers:

   And there are other good options: Slackware and Alpine stand out. Gentoo is a bit heavy with its config syntax, but it's a super solid option.

   @boud @libreleah
   Thank you. I know about Leah's work and the Libreboot machines (and yours!) and admire both.

   Under ideal circumstances I'd be setting up a new server that was
   -- low power, moving to solar
   -- fully libre
   ...but I just don't have the spoons to sort that right now.

   It will be
   -- BSD
   -- good open software - Nextcloud, Docuwiki, Koha

   I have had to accept my limits, though. Between being the only parent for two kids, doing a really tough (non-tech) job, and keeping an eye on my own health, I need to get a reliable clunker in for the job.

   When I can finally set up the Buddhist hermitage/community hub that is in my dreams, I will have the luxury of not compromising on the infrastructure. Not yet, not yet.

   @aeva These last few years have broken something deep within me and I have no idea what to do with myself now.

   It's not about the generative whatever particularly, that's certainly not helped but it's mostly yet another manifestation of something that's been eating at me for way longer.

   I had to reboot the server. Got new kernel bits and some docker upgrade for Ubuntu. One flavor of Mint already had a kernel upgrade, and another just got one. All things Mint got new Firefox code.

   You know that translator in Firefox? It's gone when you shut off AI. It is possible to leave parts running, though I just shut the whole thing off for now.

   It is officially my right to gripe about LibreTranslate errors, lol.

   #Linux #Firefox #LibreTranslate

   That gendered piece is actually another thing I'm trying to work out right now.

   It's kind of funny that working so hard to deconstruct patriarchy & misogyny in my own mind has made it hard to understand people still in that trap because it all feels so meaningless now. I've nearly forgotten at this point what it actually felt like.

   So I see my sister playing "innocent little white housewife" & wonder why tf she thinks she's excused from moral responsibility.
