Rioting Pacifist

With Fedora & Ubuntu you can also switch between desktop environments without re-installing

Arch is for people who want to think they are computer experts.

Debian/Fedora are for the experts that have moved beyond reading release notes.

Ubuntu is in fact sold and supported and that generates most of the money to fund it’s development.

I know everyone here is obsessed with freaking out over the legislation.

But I think the author is wrong, they should just add this to accountservice and Debian will pick it up in 5-10 years and that’s fine.

I actually thing the tendency to over engineer this solution to make back porting easier is worse than the milktoast Californian law.

Because not selling your product to the 5th largest economy in the world is a dumb idea.

I don’t think the CA law requires your OS verify your age, just that it requests the age of your user account during setup and has an API to provide that age range to app stores.

I don’t think it’s any more of a privacy violation than passing UserAgents

That makes a lot more sense thanks

I’m not sure how useful this is, but it helped me understand.

The subnet mast is the count of the bits from the front that matter.

This is useful for switches and network equipment that only have to look at that much if the packet and route it quickly.

So a 10.0.0.0/8 address the switch only looks at the first 8 binary digits (also called an octet) and routes it based on that.

This also works for non multiple of 8 masks, as it’s an operation done on a binary level (it’s a mask using a binary AND so only bits that are true and.the mask can be matter)

10.192.0.0/10

IP: 00001010.11000000.00000000.00000000

Mask: 11111111.11 000000.00000000.00000000

So 10.192.0.1 and 10.192.255.255 look the same with their mask on

1: 00001010.11 000000.00000000.00000001

255: 00001010.11 111111.11111111.11111111

Mask: 11111111.11 000000.00000000.00000000

Result for both is: 00001010.11 000000.00000000.00000000

Cached files are freeable so the kernel will drop them instead of sending them to swap.

And I’m pretty sure zram is just a swap device in RAM so should follow the same rules.

My understanding is the kernel will remove them if it needs the ram, so there is no need unless it’s for security reasons.

Urgh this guy’s videos are soo long and overdramatic.

This is the Wikipedia article he read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XZ_Utils_backdoor?wprov=sfla1

Start on any standard distro do a net install or equivalent and pick a different DE, I’d recommend Ubuntu/Fedora/Debian/Suse, but YMMV

Krita is what I use but I also find text handling difficult so I always do text last.

Can you label rules, that would be a better approach IMO.

Not familiar enough with UFW but could you parse the output and store the rules number as a variable if this is all one long running script?

Why the move from SDDM to PLM?
