You never understand what "bloat" really means until you compile the Linux kernel. Holy fucking shit, THIS is real bloat.

Quick, switch to HURD
Josiah Jackson
>functionality is now bloat
Justin Flores
fuck off, idiot. people like you shouldn't be anywhere near computers or technology if this is the level of retarded fucking nonsense that you're vomiting up. if you wish to talk about bloat, let's talk about the insanely long and complex source codes for systemd.
Lucas Bennett
Install OpenBSD.

>hurr durr look at me! I'm smarter than you! Systemd bad!
Nolan Russell
where did i say it was bad, you illiterate dumb cunt? kill yourself.
Isaac Nelson
You write like a twelve-year-old trying to be badass
Chase Baker
That's what Tim Cook thinks obviously.
Alexander Powell
it is bloat because it is in one huge parametric codebase with hundreds of knobs and switches
Kayden Mitchell
>being able to turn off bloat is now bloat
Jordan Hall
according to poetttering, even wpa_supplicant has >500k loc these days. so systemd, at ~300k loc, can't really considered bloat.

The point is you turn off most of the shit, in fact there's tools already that check your hardware and do exactly that.
If you want to have support for as much hardware as Linux does you will end up with a large code base that you turn on and off.
Also just so you know, although the Linux kernel might look huge, most of that is in device drivers which are kept in tree but aren't compiled unless you turn them on, Linux propper has only 139k LOC for the actual kernel, and for comparison the BSD kernel has 162k
Camden Thomas
Yeah systemd is bloated as fuck, but we're not talking about systemd right now are we?
Robert Clark
i think having to use a keyboard or mouse to interact with computers is bloat. fact: computers can run without them. keyboards are a sjw bloat botnet
Hunter Price
Josiah Collins
ironic.
Nolan Adams

Joseph Wood
>announcing your own report
The hypocrisy.
Gavin Lee
it is not bloat, because it is
1. components
2. interchangeable
Oliver Parker
HOW DO YOU THINK ALL OF THOSE SJW SCREEDS ON TWITTER ARE TYPED UP???
Oliver Martinez
Isn't all those things "installed" on a virtual file system instead of just glued directly into the kernel code?
Josiah Scott
on touch screens.
Eli Allen
BAN ASSAULT IPADS
Oliver Baker
It would be bloat if it would have some kind of compatiblity layer like Windows did to get even DOS stuff running on newer versions. Everything else provided by the Linux kernel is pretty basic
Isaac Wilson
>things i don't need and can be compiled out or disabled are bloat
