I say it’s not a crime. In my eyes, it isn’t 🤷. Doesn’t mean I’m right, doesn’t mean the law is on my side. It just means when I ask myself “Am I commiting a crime right now 🤔?” when pirating, I just don’t feel any guilt at all… none, I sleep like a baby.
That being said, I protect myself as best as I can (financially wise as well). I just don’t live in a country where these laws are actually enforced. There hasn’t been a single piracy related trial here… ever. So, once again, I sleep like a baby… if I’m the first one, hey, so be it, someone’s gotta burn first, right 🤷.
Void Linux. A great compromise between being up to date and being stable AF. They’re not bleeding edge, but cutting edge, most definitely. For example, they only recently transfered to kernel 6.3, while Arch had it months ago… with instability issues I might add. Void maintainers would rather let these wrinckles get ironed out than implement the latest and greatest.
It is a rolling release distro, so nothing new there. Packages get regular updates, same as any other rolling release distro, except for the kernel packages which are carefully examined before being submitted in the repo. The number of precompiled packages is not huge, but the src templates are (you just have to compile them from source with xbps-src, which is a piece of cake when you already have the template file).
The good thing is that all package templates get checked for buildability (test) on GH. If the template passes all tests, it makes it in the repo, if not, it doesn’t, simple as that.
If you think you would be comfortable with Arch, you’d be comfortable with Void as well 😉.
