| schestowitz_bed | The article is a load of rubbish. The author and the commentators haven't for one second considered why Slackware is the way it is and why it has survived. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | A load of false statements and assumptions - as all Gentoo, Arch, LFS etc. users know - because they are all based on similar ideas to Slackware. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Automatic dependency testing is not good. It is bad. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Some dependencies are optional, depending on what features you want. Others aren't even depencies at all - regardless of any features - they will include a library if it is available - if it isn't no sweat - so why include it if you don't want to? With automatic dependency checking you are relying on the distro administrators to decide for you what you need - and this is the heart of the matter. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Since when has the most popular been the "best"? Basically, the popular "user-friendly" distros are catering for a dumbed-down consumer mentality. They want to frighten the user into thinking that computers and software are difficult - when is pretty easy. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | To say you need prior knowledge of GNU/linux in order to use Slackware is a lie - I had NO knowledge of GNU/linux prior to Slackware - Slackware is indeed classified as being suitable for both beginners and experts - it is easier to install than most GNU/Linux - it was easier to install than W95 or W7 - and I was an expert at installing W95 !!!! | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Installing packages is done by various methods - including installing binaries - but the usual method is by running a script - which can be done automatically using sbopkg or manually. This script then compiles the program. This means your binaries are CLEAN plus you can include and exclude any options which you wish - this is "advanced" - contrary to what te article said. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | This is generally no slower than installing binaries, the exception being libraries. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Basically - "user-friendly" distros are full of marketing hype when they talk about user friendliness - they are just treating you as dumb consumer and con you into thinking that everything they do automatically is awfully difficult to do by yourself. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | In short - they dumb you down, lock you in and control you. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Finally - to prove how third rate that article is. look at these quotes: | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | the most famous distros – from Ubuntu to Fedora to Mint – were born in the mid-2000′s. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | "Famous"? He means those that get the most publicity i.e. hype. Doesn't he know that Ubuntu is based on Debian from the 1990's? That Feodora is based on RedHat from the 1990's? What sort of child is he? Does this mean that he finds Debian too "difficult" - or he hasn't even tried it? Ubuntu is just hype. Like many (but not all) new distros - it is based on a solid distro from the 1990's (Slackware, Debian, Redhat) - but | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | sometimes with no difference other than a different default window manager and wallpaper. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | Since then, the distribution honestly hasn’t changed much – it has updated more than it has “improved”. In other words, it hasn’t added any functionality on its own, but rather just replace system components with successors. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | What the author calls "functionality" (what would be no-funtionality? Wall paper?) are deviations from the basic standard GNU/Linux. Slackware is standard - if you understand Slackware, you will understand Linux and thus understand the basic underlying system of all all GNU/Linux systems - and you WILL understand it because Slackware is free of the unnecessary overhead which slow down other systems, make them bloated and cause | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | additional problems. In other words, the additional "functionality" of other distros is nothing more than a software burocracy. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | If you know a "user friendly" distro, you just know it or it's distro-family user interface. Going to another "user-friendly" distro means learning their interface - but you still aren't getting to know GNU/Linux. In shirt you are little better off than a Windoze user - indeed some distros pride themselves that windoze users will hardly notice the difference :))) | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | It's the difference beween living at home and living in a hotel. Which is why I call other distros "Valet" distros. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | The project started in 1992, a year after Linux was initially released, as a way to install a Linux system that already included some core packages: the kernel, an X window system, and more. | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | The author doesn't know the first thing about Linux - he did not even mention GNU !!! | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_bed | " | Oct 03 20:07 |
| schestowitz_log_ | "The author clearly didn't bother to ask Slackware or its users the simple question: WHY? But since he's never heard of GNU, it isn't surprising." | Oct 03 20:55 |

| schestowitz_bed | I remained silent about the whole Focal relicensing troubles for now. There was a lot of drama between the app being GPL, and the fact Cyanogen Inc wanted to use it, which drove some frustration between me, some CM contributors, and CM leaders. As a result, to avoid any problem, Focal has been removed from CyanogenMod. I think you deserve explanations and “behind the scenes†view on how all of this happened, and to know it†| Oct 04 19:10 |

| schestowitz_bed | This is the true, fully-featured story of the “Focal drama”. It's not a rant about how Cyanogen Inc is bad or anything (and it can be a good thing, with a few conditions, see at the end of the post), but just an insight on how this all happened, and how some people were and are feeling. | Oct 04 19:10 |
