@terra fucking correct. Ubuntu putting ads in their shit and enshittifying Linux (and encouraging other distros to do similarly) is why we jumped over to NetBSD and Solaris

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand when you change the radio policy, you dumb bitch, your devices will have to re-join the network. This requires the fucking radius server. If you, in your infinite fucking wisdom, *UNPLUG THE HYPERVISOR'S ETHERNET* so you can move it, guess what? YOUR RADIUS SERVER WON'T BE FUCKING CONTACTABLE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

@jessew this one heavily promotes Solaris hypervisors

@jessew but the network, it also complains! Must add hosts! (consider: Solaris hypervisor)

@jessew but they're so pretty

@jessew this one is definitely not singular, hasn't been for a while now

@jessew nope

@sendai @PepperTheVixen windows, unfortunately. Linux desktop accessibility can best be described as "nope". When Solaris 10 on a SPARC has better and more consistent desktop accessibility than Linux... admittedly we haven't actually sat down with a Linux machine with a GUI to play in a while, so we might be wrong, but it's never been *good*

@dalias @fastfinge yepyep, unless usb_audio.ko isn't in your kernel and if it ain't, the fuck you doing?

@fastfinge wait. WHAT! You had to reinstall? You couldn't boot from USB into archiso and fsck the disk?

@fastfinge incorrect. boot USB, wait 3 seconds, s, then enter, boot with screenreader. In arch images, boot USB, wait 3-5 seconsd, down, then enter. boots with speakup

@fastfinge we dunno what machine you're running on, but the integrated speech in the installer for Debian and arch works all the time every time. And again, not sure what hardware you're on, but we've got 3 machines right here with serial consoles and, when they were running Linux, they all worked. They're all running Solaris now but still

@fastfinge that's super weird
