I would say "finally", but I've given up already.

I don't see systems booting with systemd in any near future of any dimension. Instead I now run "terribly slow" OpenRC on my systems. Poor me.

$() instead of

So much this!

That's a really neat feature.

... and tmux session open in it.

Oh, nice!

... unless you install a package manager, which turns LFS into an another distro. 🤷

If you don’t want a COW filesystem, then XFS on LVM

XFS supports reflinks, so it's kind of snapshot and CoW capable. Someone was working on some tool to make snapshots on XFS by utilizing reflinks.

Uh. That would be huge undertaking indeed.

Let me guess all these makefile generators create gnu-style makefiles too?

I was stating that this Chimera isn't that lightweight.

This means Chimera is not a GNU/Linux system, as it utilizes neither GNU utilities, nor GNU libc, nor GNU toolchain. The system is bootstrappable almost entirely without any GNU components (other than make) and is capable of booting without them (however, most people will have some).

I'd guess they'll move to some bsd make at some point.

Oh boy...

Imo, both methods should set the same value for x. That's madness. 🤪 Just look at awk for example. There's a dedicated substr() and it doesn't care about spaces. But then awk is quite loose in everything... and niche... But I love it.

⬆️ for rdiff-backup since it keeps the last backup easily readable.

I had before (and I think I'll implement it again) snapshot capable filesystem where to I rsynced my stuff. Then once a day did a snapshot of the backups. It has the advantage of all the backups being easily readable as long as your backup filesystem is intact and your kernel can mount it.
