What’s the use case for using anything other than red hat’s freeotp?

Why are you even bothering dude? Just back up your data and install it fresh. You’ll be done in 30 minutes.

Why do people on the internet think you don’t have to shave if you have a beard? You’re just shaving less area.

No, the government is huge, and most parts of it really don’t care about your data. They’re busy buildings roads, sewers and doing fundamental research. It’s really people vs the national security state.

It does not and they have not.

But the way in which these factors interact with one another makes it difficult to disentangle the effects of loneliness from the causes, cautions cognitive neuroscientist Livia Tomova at Cardiff University, UK. Do people’s brains start functioning differently when they become lonely, or do some people have differences in their brains that make them prone to loneliness? “We don’t really know which one is true,” she says.

Or people who are sick are less likely to socialize, which is a much less exciting finding.

What a joke. The Guardian was captured by the establishment after Snowden and now just reprints security state PR notices.

Man just when audio in Linux got decently stable and functional, now we have to switch to some new shit. I run Ubuntu 23.10 that has pipewire and mostly it works but then sometimes it starts crackling, audio turns on and off, skipping, or random muting.

I’m getting so fucking fed up with these stupid Linux desktop pre-alpha software that take a decade to stabilize and by then we’re off to the brand new thing that barely functions.

What the fuck are you smoking dude, X11 is used all over the place

and we should minimize the amount of damage shitty clients can do.

Can’t have global shortcuts or share my screen but at least my system is secure from these non-existent threats snort

Why don’t I just smash my computer with a sledgehammer for the ultimate protection from flatpak malware.

Do you think every single app should have permissions to screen record without you knowing, to keylog without you knowing?

Can you point me to a single notable breach that happened because of this?

Classical security thinking is that if you have a compromised app running, it’s all over anyway, and it’s time to wipe and reinstall. Luckily, this isn’t a problem on Linux because packages are vetted by distributions maintainers… unless…

Unless the new plan is to transition from that to flatpak proprietary stores packaged by unknown developers, giving us trashware app stores like on Android and Windows.

Sure, if you expect to run proprietary malware on Linux then some protection might be useful. But then you’re just running a shitty version of Windows, and not getting the historical cultural benefits of Linux anyway. Might as well run Windows.

Probably never. X11 just works better. Wayland has bad design and bad implementations.

Indeed. Until they a bit too popular and then miraculously a sinister connection to the CCP will appear out of nowhere.

It’s dead everywhere else because they can’t use Google Play Services.

Anyway, I don’t think the goal of US actions is ever to stop or kill anything completely. After all there’s money to be made in the “problem” coming back again and again.

I think this is an important point people who mock the US don’t get.

It does. RSS is the way IMO.

I use FreshRSS and the chromium RSS subscription extension. I just go to a user’s youtube page and click the extension icon and it subscribes me.

After trying NixOS in a VM a couple times, this constant tweaking ended up in the system breaking both times to the point where it was impossible to edit the .nix config file without chroot (and a lot of GRUB entries, a rather bit messy if you ask me).

I don’t get it, doesn’t NixOS let you go to a previous configuration in the boot menu?

To make a reliable Linux desktop, I see almost no other solution than Atomicity that doesn’t require extensive Linux experience.

You have a very skewed perspective coming from your constantly broken Arch install.

You don’t need immutability and containers to have a reliable Linux install. My Ubuntu installs are extremely reliable, both on desktops and servers.

I have to say though that I ran Arch for a few years and it only broke once or twice. This is either astroturfing or PEBCAK.
