  • Well… they did it. Right up until the issue was raised and now they will presumably not do it anymore.

    But saying “They are doing no such thing.” is kinda disingenuous when they just admitted doing it in their stated clarification 50minutes ago and the sponsorship contract is probably not even actually cancelled yet.

    Also they deleted all of the posts about it on their own subreddit, claiming they are duplicates (and they didn’t leave up an original). Plain old damage control censorship hurray!

    Why does this thread get downvoted? I’m not on reddit, I wouldn’t know about it if it wasn’t shared here.













  • Doing anything with your brain will always increase it’s aptitude in that “topic”.

    People that learn lots of human languages become better and better at learnig further human languages.

    People that do one type of math get better at learning other types of math.

    People that do something with their body coordination (athletes) can pick up other types of body coordination (other sports or dance for example.) faster compared to couch potatoes.

    etc.

    So doing anything with your brain is already useful, even as just a “workout”.



  • No I think the claim was: Cachy IS arch.

    It adds a fancy installer and it’s own kernel and some other things. But that doesn’t make it less arch.

    So I gave an example from the other direction: if you take your arch and apply all the things that cachy does extra, it will still be arch.

    I think the key here is the word “distro”/“distribution”.

    If you take your arch and change the way software is distributed to it, by lets say uninstalling pacman and installing apt (and modifying everything else that’s related to this change so it works properly) then it would become debian.
