At last I’ll be able to get a decent accuracy score despite my oyster-like reflexes :)

Just a reminder: with Proton you can’t use IMAP for your email client, you either need their mail client (mobile) or bridge app (desktop).

It’s definitely happening. Hurting the vulnerable harder than usual seems to be one of the many perks of hosting olympics games along extra pollution, extra corruption… /s

Thanks a lot for this detailed, understandable and kind answer :)

The article talks about sudo and doas being SUID binaries and having a larger attack surface than run0 would. Could someone ELI5 what this means?

Thanks for the info!

Is there some drama I’m not aware of here?

Also there are 40-something packages depending on it, so I guess it gets pulled automatically when they are used.

You’ll find an npm package to help you count up to 2.

(I recently learned - maybe here - that the is-even package has over 170k weekly downloads)

Why can’t they (genuine question) ?

You also need full root access to you bank’s machines.

For the execution, can’t you configure the fstab with noexec on partitions where the user has write permissions and give the user read-only permissions on the root partition ?

I think this would be fine for most jobs, the exception being software development where you usually need to execute stuff to test your programs.

Being able to choose between single player, coop, and multiplayer.

From the gitlab page:

The user can move the cursor with h,j,k,l (vim keys), or the arrow keys.

Been using Deltachat for about a year, so far so good. I dunno how secure it really is (never took the time to check) but it’s been reliable. Multi-device was kinda quirky at first but has gotten better.

So if I read this correctly, big changes means doubling down on breaking the pve promise and (finally!) decoupling the available characters pool from mtx.

OVH because cheap enough for me, europe based and reliable.

It’s not about competing, it’s about providing an alternative. GNU/Linux isn’t really competing with windows as a desktop OS for the masses, but people who want more freedom and privacy get the alternative. Fairphone isn’t competing with Samsung or Apple either.

I feel like if we follow your line of thought, then we should never try to do things better because the existing is too big.

Yes you can.
I spend a lot od time fixing things that I broke because I like it and it’s a hobby for me.

I installed Linux Mint Debian Edition on my SO’s laptop last year (old thinkpad t470) and I haven’t had to do anything about it since then. The installation process was easy, I didn’t bother changing the defaults and just clicked “Next” on most of the steps.

Can you share with us the hardware you’ll be using ? In most cases it’ll be easy peasy, but some stuff is known to cause issues that we might be able to identify before you start your journey.
