The vast majority of xz's blobs are accounted for, too.

I thought this was pretty solid talk on SElinux https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WOKRaM-HI4

If you think it's hard to figure out GPG for yourself, well good luck finding and communicating with someone else who has also figured it out.

I think the flatpak is still up.

Fuck Nintendo.

You can grab Kate from the Windows Store right now. Get all of the KDE apps, they're pretty much the only good stuff on there.

It's a shame that that the list doesn't translate well into "what device can I go out and buy"? Every shitty manufacturer has to constantly churn design changes, and hide it all behind the exact same model number.

Is there a reason to install one(1) singular OS across multiple partitions? Is it just because that's how our ancestors did things?

Partitions are crude buckets that tell Operating Systems that "this lump is a filesystem that you know how to read" or "you don't know how to read this, leave it alone". Partitions tell UEFI that it should only use this special FAT32 chunk. A partition is not a good mechanism to set quotas, as you can see from how difficult it is to expand. A bunch of partitions that are all mounted together does little to isolate against failures.

If you want to run an OS across two filesystems that provide different characteristics (one provides atomic snapshots, the other provides ??), that would have to live on different partitions. Would you be better served by putting it all on the more modern FS? Is the older filesystem only kept around because it straddles "what my OS knows" and "what my bootloader knows"? If it's just for the bootloader's sake, that's why we have /boot.

First you have to make a new --user remote. Then you can list your current stuff and install it on the --user side one package at a time, (with --no-pull so it sucks the existing install). Then, you delete the --system copy of packages.

Instead of having an efficient chip monitoring the power button, they integrate that job into some 10nm chip. That chip doesn't get to power off, so it just pisses away power on gate leakage all day long.

Avoid prion diseases, mulch the rich.

That was the dumbest thing about "Death Note". Dipshit Light wasted his time on writing the names of people that were already being ground up by the criminal justice system. He was so cop-brained that he never could even imagine using this power on the guys who are above any justice whatsoever. If he made a list of the wealthiest labor-thieves and cruelest dictators, would anyone even bother going after him? If he post-dated it to all go off at once, there would be zero pattern for any detective to start from.
