thought it was about direct rendering management and not this shit - they should be working on HDCP stripping instead
They're redoing kill

Blaming the XDG Base Directory for that is plain retarded because it's the thing it tired to solve: put all configs in one place. But yeah, try venturing outside your home directory and you'll realize that the rest of the system is like that. Some shit is in /usr/lib, some in /opt, some shit is in /usr/share, the executable is in /usr/bin, the configuration is in /etc, the manual is in /usr/share/man but the documentation is in /usr/share/doc and it goes on and on. And every time someone tries to fix it, it only gets worse because the support for the new standard takes ages.
Here's how retarded QuakeSpasm's installation looks when you try to follow the UNIX® hierarchy (w/o symbolic links):
~/.local/ bin/ quakespasm.sh lib/quakespasm/ quakespasm-sdl1 quakesmasm-sdl2 share/quake/ id1/ maps/ custom.bps custom.lit music/ track02.wav ... track11.wav pak0.pak pak1.pak rogue/ ... hipnotic/ ...~/.config/ quake/ id1/ autoexec.cfg config.cfg quick.sav s0.sav s1.sav ... s18.sav s19.sav rogue/ ... hipnotic/ ...
Where quakespasm.sh changes the current directory to ../share/quake and executes ../lib/quakespasm/quakespasm-sdl[1|2]. And even then the placement of the ~/.local/share/quake/MOD/maps/ directory is quite questionable because /usr/share/ that $XDG_DATA_HOME mimics is supposedly for read-only files.

Nigga this is all retarded. The id1, rogue, and other subdirectories are from id software themselves. You even get those in DOS or Windows. Why would you want to force yourself to follow some FHS and mirror all paths in $HOME? That's stupid! You just create a dotfile for quake, or a dotdir with a couple config files in it and you're done! Only retarded autists want to do exactly things by some made up rules. That's what these freedesktop fucks are. They only know how to make things more complicated.

This is what happens when you LARP on Zig Forums for too long.
Programs can already choose how to terminate on a kill signal

It's creepypasta, user. I don't believe virgin boomers exist.

having some standards is a good thing for servers that might be used/managed by more than one person. you can do what you want on your neet gaming machine.
Parker Anderson
Kek. Go make things more complicated for yourself then. I bet you run systemd too.
