Arch is very powerful and flexible, but definitely not newbie friendly. I only made the jump after 7 years of using Ubuntu and Debian, and I still had a learning curve.
These kind of forums don't store the plaintext password, they send an email while in memory, and hash them afterwards. Still bad security, but it's not storing it in plaintext.
I'm from South America and work for a global company with headquarters in the Netherlands and important offices in Sweden and France.
They talk about Latin America as a "focus region" and wanting to develop the company here, but their only interest is how much money they can extract and take to Europe. They don't give a shit about the employees here.
And they're sooo racist about it, but they would never admit it. When one of the products was repurposed for use in Latin America, the European people working on it all desperately transferred teams because no one wanted to work with us. If we ask for anything they just stall and make us wait for weeks or months for it.
They say that they want us to have "ownership" of our processes and tools, but we have to ask for permission for any project, no matter how small.
If we do things our way, they block us with bureaucracy and red tape and make us jump through hoops for every little thing.
I could continue all day...
