The programs usually run in user context and have access to the files.
Even if thinking very hard I cannot come up with a scenario where a program that does not run in user context needs access to user files.

700 is the only sane answer for directories inside $HOME.
All distros are immutable if you lost your root password.
I think NixOS is the way to go currently, but I personally would not use it due to the extra amount of work for little to no benefit on a single-user home machine.


THIS is misleading, though.
There are definitely more than just 69 users who uploaded packages to the AUR.


The vast majority of the AUR is package some random person added once then never bothered with ever again.
Yes, that sucks. But I was thinking of exclusively this packages: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?submit=Orphans


[Changing a package’s name] would break all dependencies of this package.
Yes, that is correct. But that should not be a big deal for packages that are actively maintained. The maintainer can simply change the dependency to the new name after making sure the new package is legit.


The problem is the current implementation
Yes, exactly this! I am not surprised it happens. I’m surprised it didn’t happen before.
especially new accounts
Weren’t there “sleeper accounts” registered years ago that became active in the current wave?
Also the AUR helpers should do a better job.
Even experienced people will just update as if nothing could happen. Adopted packages should have to use a different name and the current name being blocked so it WILL get attention when some tries to update their system.


Adoptions are a mistake anyways. Remove unmaintained packages and block the name for several months.


On one side I enjoy solitude, walking alone, drawing, fishing and cooking. Most people bore me because I find them dull and superficial. I specially hate the talkative, needy ones who wont shut up and believe I care what they think. I dislike big groups of drunks or people that need to yell and listen to loud music to feel good.
And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that!


Good decision. Ubuntu is a highly complex and specific all-in-one distribution never meant for customization.
Labwc allows for all kinds of menus on root. You can freely define a menu and open it on a click action.


But no extra tools needed on either side.


Between Android phones or Android->Windows Quick Share exists. Between all other devices Bluetooth can be used for sharing.


The company’s website is currently collecting email signups for early-bird pricing. Pricing has not been announced. Neither have display resolution, exact dimensions, weight, or the availability of expansion ports.
So all we know is that some company wants to sell something at some point in the future.
There is literally and figuratively no reason to not use Neovim for both.
No, I use Neovim. But this I use 100% of the time.


A few years ago I’d say Vim but nowadays it’s Neovim for me.


GitHub is not acceptable for new projects since June 4, 2018.
Yes, this is what I wonder.
I use Linux since ca. 2005 and never ever had a program not working because it could not read a user’s
$HOMEcontents.
