I love it, but the configuration is messy. Many packages are out of date, but the Scheme syntax makes it easy to update them and build them on your system.

Problem is, getting these updates merged with the upstream never happens generally speaking (I have several open patches), so you end up having two working trees in your local Guix repo, and heaven forbid you run guix pull on the wrong branch.

Also you can't just install these packages, you have to import the keyrings of any packages that access the kernel. That requires you to go to the website, check out the owner of the key, see their contributions and decide for yourself if you trust it

+1 for Alpine. I had my reservations due to their mistrust for glibc which rattled my GNU sensibilities, but musl is rock steady and all my apps feel stable and hackable.

Gnome is a harmless though. It's so benign it's reliable.

KDE is glossy and featureful and sometimes my CPU fan doesn't go down for whole hours because baloo is scanning my entire filesystem (including various conda installations) despite me repeatedly asking it not to.

And if I don’t like it, I just shoot every goddamn speaker and radio in sight. That usually does the trick.

Amen

I love that song though

and who could forget:

"... nowhere to run.... I'll rub your bum.... EVERYTHING BURNS.... EVERYTHING BURNS..."

or

"... cuz it makes me feel better..." x 1000


I will say that I do completely like the "Lift me Up" song. It rewards the general drudgery with intermittent tranquil harmony

Couldn't find anything on "blood debt" or "life debt", with the closest being a reddit article that references a Kung-Fu movie in 70s that popularises the idea
