You could run it via wine if that is really your own hangup from switching to mac.

There is still no real equivalent on Linux. Kate seems nice but its session management isn't ideal. Honestly I want to take Scintilla or whatever and just add in session support, syntax highlighting and spellchecking, and then I'l

Heh. Yeah, people mostly disable SELinux because they did threat modeling and determined it made sense, and don't just switch it off due to laziness or incompetence. I think claiming that is a pretty goofy argument, personally.

The thing I've noted is just how much we stigmatize the idea of being stupid in society. No one wants to be stupid, no one wants to be wrong, and it's gotten so bad that if people are wrong they are worried they will be seen as st

Why use RHEL if you don't want one of the main advantages it offers? There have been numerous exploits that RHEL has been protected against because of SELinux and their policies. Sure, not all servers need to be secured, but why use RH

The problem is you are outright dismissing the idea without having brought yourself up to speed.. You continue to look foolish when you attempt to ridicule others because you think they are wrong or ignorant, because you yourself don't

It's the decision to use hex at all which is weird. I don't think most of this crowd would be particularity impressed by it.

What I find more interesting is how some sites can detect your OS even if you block JS and change the user agent to indicate something different. I assume it's checking for known fonts or something similar.

You're running too much stuff. Privacy badger and ublock together is a bad idea for example.

You continue to miss the point. But if you're happy handing over your personal data, and your stance is representative of most Australians, that's probably why privacy protections are so weak in Australia - most don't underst

I suppose I thought your use case was mainly getting alerts and 2FA stuff and wouldn't require replying back so often. But in any case I think proxying is absolutely possible and would b easy to setup, especially on a rooted phone. The

It's not as good as SELinux but you can limit the rights of admins with group policy so that they won't be able to install random drivers in the environments you speak of that need that boundary.

Why do you need proxying specifically?

by ruthmarx 2y ago
It has a significantly better security architecture than macOS, and Linux is a mess as far as desktop use goes. Can't speak to ChromeOS but I understand that's pretty locked down, and honestly that could possibly take the lead, al

Most of them are offering nothing more than an ssh or web service. Not really a great or fair comparison. Linux on the desktop is the least secure option out of Windows and macOS, barring RHEL with it's SELinux policies which probably

Interesting, I might need to do some reading, but macOS was terrible for a long time, and seriously lagging behind windows when it came to security. They seemed to just be coasting on the fact that Apple as a platform simply wasn't tar

Windows isn't especially hackable, they've been taking security seriously and doing a decent job for at least a decade, and honestly these days it's a lot better than the alternatives. Really the issue is because it's us
