With a PPA you can't upload binaries, you upload sources that can be audited, and Canonical builds them.

Many things. Mostly PPAs. I can install Ubuntu Stable and use the most recent version of PHP, which has been built and is stored in Canonical's servers. With Debian, that's a gamble: either wait until the Debian developers stop bi

If Debian offered the same things Ubuntu does, people wouldn't use Ubuntu. But, alas, they don't.

This has been a hit and miss for me, and that's actually worse, because when I get that "wordpress has updated on its own" email I get the feeling of security, and then months later I log into the admin area only to find word

You can't, and you don't have to. It's their problem and their responsibility. They have the right to do whatever they want within their sovereign territory, for better or for worse.

When I go on youtube, my front page is full of the normiest things of my country. Makes me think... either I'm really good at blocking, or they don't care enough to actually try harder to track me. Or they do actually track me har

Only that they are not optional, they force you to install those drivers (unless you're installed your own before). But they do indeed show up on Windows Update. https://filestore.community.support.microsoft.com/api&#x2

Every part of my computer, which I built myself, gets its drivers from Windows Update. Drivers have been pushed from Windows Update since... forever? Granted, I always install a more recent version myself.

The best part of the Republic of Weimar, second only to its demise, was the infighting. Now that we get to see it on Internet forums, I can only be happy to live in this age.

I agree with you science nowadays is mostly junk. On the other hand if we can choose to ignore any study that links X to something bad, then this is a conversation not worth having. Myself I like to err on the side of caution, since my coun

You don't have to go and look on social media, just come here to HN and say "perhaps weed is not completely safe and we should research whether it could damage the brain" to get downvoted

Okay, wait, I got it. He confused totok (the app this article discusses) with tiktok, and he's mad that he got shadowbanned on tiktok for posting ukelele videos.

The only way to read guys who are shadowbanned is to enable "showdead" in your profile. You won't automatically read their comments even if you are shadowbanned yourself if you don't enable the showdead option.

Why without a warrant? Why "to catch terrorists"? There are lots of crimes and even civil matters for which this is useful.
