Media and games. Only loaded and run when I’m using them.
Package dependencies? How much of that is loading at runtime? How many security holes and exploits is some sub, sub, sub package going to introduce?
I agree with you but it is for the sake of the joke...
It’s true. And it’s worse since people worry about the security of the OS but download large batches of suspect apps and games.
200 MB install size, -50 MB net upgrade size though.
I love this shit you know. Before Linux, I didn't know that upgrading could decrease the amount of space it takes. And especially since I have a 512gb ssd only, this feels so good.
me, looking at literally any measurement of my system: We could get that lower
Jest turn it off and count on piece od paper
The Dijkstra way.
Use Slackware! It doesn't install any dependencies.
Is it dependable?
It depends.
How it feels to install gentoo whole system is less than 20GB steam games makes it 100GB.

That's cheating, you're supposed to compile your games yourself
Your right even installing the games is bloat! I must write them from scratch to save VALUEABLE SYSTEM RESOURCES
Spreading the word of IEC units: it's "1.46 TiB" and "200 MiB" btw.
That's weak. Rolling release and not updated since febuary. 4 GB downloaded. Thank the celestial penguin nothing broke.
Remember to update only the keyring first and you should be OK.
Someone explain me why do I need to spend 10 minutes waiting for some perl stuff to compile while all I wanted is to have live updated currency exchange rates in GnuCash.
Part of this is from the nostalgia of never having to update your shit in the days of Windows 9x and Windows XP. Installing stuff never required a system update or an internet connection. Drivers were installed via floppy disk or CD. There were tons of other problems all the time of course but at least we didn't have to remember to update stuff.
