Oh, you wouldn't want to do that. Contrary to what I wrote in another
thread about "the perfect is the enemy of the good", if *I* were in
charge of decontamination, I'd throw out whole subsystems. Gnome gone.
KDE gone. Xfce gone. Networkmanager gone. Gimp gone if it gets all
systemd on us.

In the massive time I save as not being the bomb squad defusing Red
Hat's terrorism, I'd write small replacements for a lot of things that
use only Linux and a very rudimentary and optional GUI interface.

Then I'd write documentation explaining how to use a sharp thinking
computer, to the proud ignorants of the world, especially those who
believe their ignorance is a badge of honor proving their age or
gender.

And the people who prioritize pretty over functional and robust: I'd
tell them to get a Mac.

You don't want me in that capacity.

And yes, I *am* a hypocrit who takes one position in one thread, and
then says he'd do the opposite in another. :-)
