interesting kustomisation

cat?

What’s the problem with it? These MIT programs already exists. Anyone can make proprietary version. Including in Ubuntu doesn’t change that.

Also your example is pointless. Canonical would rather make a proprietary pam module instead of a custom internal fork of sudo-rs.

Not recommending software. As you mentioned old hard disks, it is better to copy the files or better dd them on a ssd. That way making index and finding duplicates will be faster cause you’ve to access files once and not care about fragmentation if you dd.

which country?

You say KDE hangs, but what component hangs actually? It it plasmashell (other apps work but panel is dead?)? Kwin (windows move/respond to input?)? KDE apps?

I would suggest you to install a distro with kde (fedora KDE edition or open SUSE, not neon) if you’re not confident with administration. Use something like Kinoite for accidental breakage protection, or if you want to keep /home as is, install fedora 42 inplace (the new installer).

Not only my experience but also that of many KDE devs say that fedora KDE is probably the best mainline KDE experience (ignoring niche distros or customized KDE).

Also, don’t use xorg session. Always log in to default wayland session unless you have incompatible usecase (in that case you know what you’re doing).

Exactly. I currently have a notebook which is very well made. But it still sucks that I had to pay the windows license which is of no use : (

Windows is no easier to install (or even harder).

I’ve installed both recent windows and common distros many times by hand (where unattended wasn’t trivial) and found everything except latest windows 11 quite similar (including arch) and very easy. Current windows 11 afaik needs registry hacks but I’ve not installed one yet.

Contributing to AOSP is already difficult. Now patches wrt stable branch will lead to more conflicts as stable gets older.

Why are parts of Android developed in private? It typically takes more than a year to bring a device to market. And, of course, device manufacturers want to ship the latest software they can. Meanwhile, developers don’t want to constantly track new versions of the platform when writing apps. Both groups experience a tension between shipping products and not wanting to fall behind.

total bs (at https://source.android.com/docs/setup/about/faqs#why-are-parts-of-android-developed-in-private).

The real reason you won’t need antivirus.

Not a physicist but fuck it is so relatable.

Unpopular opinion, these are handy for quickly installing in a new vm or container (usually throwaway) where one don’t have to think much unless the script breaks. People don’t install thing on host or production multiple times, so anything installed there is usually vetted and most of the times from trusted sources like distro repos.

For normal threat model, it is not much different from downloading compiled binary from somewhere other than well trusted repos. Windows software ecosystem is famously infamous for exactly the same but it sticks around still.

Yeah I only find this which is bit technical. Anything else seems marketing bs. Seems like they’re making something similar to fuchsia by google but with linux abi compatibility.

Having linux shim alone makes it effectively monolithic like xnu.They even claim this by saying linux shim will hold global state in this otherwise microkernel.

Do you know where to find the HongMeng kernel? I couldn’t find in OpenHarmony gitee.

Party is new, ideology is old.

Germany just had a sweeping far right election

you can’t say 20% a ‘sweeping’. The situation is worse at other places. And thanks to true multi party democracy, AfD probably won’t be in government anyway.

you forgot the /s right?

What’s wrong with mRNA vaccines, politically or medically?

everything else is just random chance.

nope, then you’d see some of same species showing the behaviour, others not.

While you can’t directly upload to scihub, https://libgen.li/librarian.php is an option. Eventually some from here might end up in scihub but it doesn’t matter.

edit: I knew a researcher who used to send articles (own and others downloaded through institute) directly to Alexandra over email. But that was a while ago, no idea if that still works.
