I just used to use dillo because it was faster, cleaner, and left more RAM free for other uses. If there was a sufficiently broken site that I still wanted to bother loading, I'd fire up whatever the big browser was called back then.

That's how I first learned assembly. Armed with a monitor program that can disassemble and modify memory, I read and modified programs stepping through them. Mostly games, naturally. I never got an actual assembler/linker chain th

Just because something has an even worse version of the problem doesn't mean complaining about it is pointless. The opposite.

I wonder if there would be a bounty that you can set up somewhere. That would be a nice chunk to get started on a fork.

If someone actually has the ability to do instead of just complain, the answer is to fork it and welcome more patches. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMP#Forks_and_derivatives There might be one already, of course.

And OpenBSD advertises "two remote holes in the default install, in a heck of a long time". And they're pretty serious about audits. It happens. But like the other comment said, this is about supply chain attacks via automati

I've spent thirty, mostly on stable, and there's been minimal pain. Several orders of magnitude less than on any other system. (That might hint that I'm not doing trendy things.)
