I used to be a BSD nut. Everything everywhere BSD. Hack it so easy. All in one repository. Made life easy. Now a days I’m in a different type of easy. Linux does everything. Submit to systemd because it makes it easier. I miss my rebellio

When you install Docker desktop and already have wsl2 installed you get a pop up saying “you just want us to use wsl2?” And away you go. At least that’s what happened when I did it 6 months ago. Works great!

it would have to generate an e-mail by default, which means you need mail setup. on top of this you need to MITM the whois command (which is unencrypted, but still). This is not easily exploitable.

I’ve only worked with the chrome store which is obviously open source so static analysis doesn’t work here like it does there. It’s a good question. My hot take is diff the syscalls. Easy enough to do. If you changed a bunch of them then b

This is a surprising comment! I have a lifetime plex pass from probably 8 years ago. They had a bad release a few years ago that broke some stuff. Made a post. They asked for logs and I uploaded them and they pushed a new build with a fix t

Totally. But there has to be some middle ground. If you did a 180 then do a manual review. If the app is fundamentally the same with a minor bug fix then why review it?

I took a boat ride yesterday and on the dock I asked my friend if they pay a flat rate for electricity or per kwh. He said a flat rate. Which obviously I joked we should mine Bitcoin on his boat. But I really wonder if we would get caught d

Redacted is still very good. Sadly spotify makes it too easy so I stopped pirating music.

I disagree. They took a bunch of time to compress the story and characters into that size. It was a triumph. Not close to “reasonable”

I’m always amazed at old nintendo and Gameboy games. I believe the first Pokémon was 512k!

They should be allowed to go in something like an S&P 500 index fund. But personally I have blackout dates trading my own company stock why don’t they have any restrictions?

Oh I’m glad I don’t. You know what I dreamt it all up. Thanks for clearing that up. But honestly just subscribing to the Linux subreddit I see tons of amd gpu issues and never hear a peep out of Intel. But yes nvidia does win the prize for

Since it’s a laptop then I could see that being an issue though. Intels embedded GPU I guess are slow and clunky but work super well in Linux in my experience.

yeah 1440x900 does kinda stink, but the screen is so small it doesn't really bother me too much. plasma does a good job shrinking itself down enough and virtual desktops help. 99% its a full screen chromium window so who cares.

ive seen a lot of requests for an AMD version but i always see people complain about AMD's linux support. Do you plan on running windows? If you are planning on Linux is the support really as bad as people complain. I say that becaus

2013 MacBook Air daily driver here. MagSafe? Usb A? Sd card reader? User replaceable battery? Runs Linux? All checks. It’s light on RAM (which for just chrome and light app use honestly it’s fine).

Ppc notebook is a thing because ppc has been “open sourced” so you can just make ppc chips using great documentation with nobody knocking on your door. As a technology it’s dead as a door nail but it’s free as speech.

I recently left Apple and my new company gave me a choice of windows or macOS as my device and I chose windows. I’m not really sure why. But I do have to say after not using windows for 10+ years it’s come a long way. Wsl simply is amazing.

Which I guess makes it C++? Is there a line you can draw between the two besides “it uses x to compile” I dislike C++. But I will say it has come a longggggggg way in the past 20 years.
