No, you miss the point. GPL is not a feelgood license. It is a license that tries to make the licensed piece of work better by exploiting the fact that the more it is used, the more it is likely that someone can improve it for everybody. So large corporations will contribute back their tweaks and everyone profits.
It is not some kind of utopic hack
I used to do this too, I confirm this works and is a good idea, it is convenient especially if you plan to distrohop a bit or know you will reset a couple times to experiment a bit
Good luck with that. Where I live carriers allow you to relocate your landline number to a new address when you move out nowadays, so this might be an issue to keep up to date.
Not just that, but any kernel crash could turn off a potentially security related machine
Someone once told me that it is wery easy for you to remember these instances and think at how you made a fool for yourself or how you were wrong or maybe even bad towards someone. These things are still vivid after 10-20 years.
However remembering how others were towards you fades a lot easier, to the point that remembering such instances from others against you from 5 years ago is difficult.
It sometimes helps me thinking that others likely moved on and probably do not even remember the episode, so I should let it go.
How do you “find” software on flatpack? Browse around and install stuff? Also is this some kind of advertisement? Is this going to mine bitcoin or use my internet connection to mask some botnet traffic?
Learn linux like everybody first, install an easier distro like debian or mint, play with that. After a few months delete everything and reinstall domething else. Keep data on external disk to not loose it. This is the way to learn. Do not learn to unicycle before knowing how to walk.
This is what we get when a new user comes to the linux community saying they are new to linux, need to choose a distro, mostly care about security and don’t trust their parents network.
Some idiot says they should use qubes, and they do it…
OP stop the madness, install debian or mint, use it a few monts and reinstall something else afterward. You will learn and all this will make sense, but you need to first sweat it like everybody else.
Imo any attacker that has access to the hardware cannot be countered by software. There always is a badusb or sodder this here chip type attack possible against any attempt at locking up your pc.
You can encrypt and backup, but any legends about tpm, bios passwords, weird hardware encryption features and keys are moot once an attacker can read what transits on the pcie or memory bus
Especially useful for any rust code, exactly like in the example!
Do not use Flatpack, it causes more problems than it solves, especially if you don’t know what you are doing
Debian is unable to manage modern dependency trees because they chose not to. It is fucking embrarassing what happens with any “normal and modern” thing in cargo, npm or other cursed repository pulling in 2000 dependencies you have absolutely no hope in being able to vet for malware or stupid bugs. This comes on top of a culture of API instability between one minor version and another.
Debian has their packages and those are tested and inspected in depth, regressions are tested. There are people running debian for a job and we don’t want that kind of nonsense.
What a shocker, such an optional date field indeed seems like a grave menace to all of the freedoms. You should make a merge request with an optional field for an user’s income, so that we may hunt the billionares and exterminate that vvermin with such powerful optional fields.
Not to mention death threats and whatnot
Can you explain in detail, what exactly that change did?
Ok thought you where a crusader, I am sure you also are against systemd and probably a rust keyboard warrior too eh?
The people running the agent need to be looking at the code and cleaning it, not someone else, that is the key thing that is missing in all these failures. Linux is the same, they would never accept something that has not at least the same quality as something written by a competent human
I am a software dev with more than 10 years of experience I have code in production and need to support legacy systems. I am trying to explain how I found a way to use this stuff in helping me in doing my job and getting food on my family’s table, but sure buddy I don’t know what I am talking about.
Well, my point is that the review should be before the pr, not after.
That all is good and lovely. My point is that this is a side benefit of having an awesome community and most people when given the choice will help someone rather than gatekeep.
The main purpose of the license is exactly the one that is forcing facebook to contribute back to the kernel, because they want the enourmous firepower of all other competitors work, and would like that their own is easy to keep with future upgrades, so they contribute not only because they are forced, but because tit is the most efficient way for them to get what modifications they need integrated properly. 40 years of this gave us the current kernel.
So if ai tools help this process they will be used, regardless of how they work morally. Because most contributors to the code are developers payed by corporations.
