Ultimately, you can’t. Even if everything you’re doing is encrypted, they have access to the RAM that’s holding your encryption keys.

It’s not completely FOSS, but I run Port87, which is quite a bit FOSS. It uses Haraka as its SMTP server, SvelteKit as its server framework, Nymph.js as its database layer, Svelte as its frontend framework, and Svelte Material UI as its UI framework.

The ones that I created and maintain are:

• Nymph.js
• SMUI

The base app layout is also available on GitHub.

You can try them both and see which one you like. Gnome is great, and it’s my preference, but KDE is also great.

Mostly that it was an ancient version, so trying to get anything even remotely recent running on it was nearly impossible. But also that even when we upgraded to the next version, all of the libraries were still outdated. It’s like running software that’s old enough to drive.

About fucking time. I worked there for 4 years and absolutely hated every time I had to log in to a prod machine. (Which wasn’t very often, but still.)

I release a lot of my software in GitHub and I’m offended at how accurate this is.

Cool, CVEs don’t tell you whether it’s remotely exploitable. What I’m talking about is an issue with the Linux kernel itself that can be exploited without having the existing ability to run code on the machine.

It’s very big news when there’s a vulnerability in the Linux kernel itself that can be remotely exploited. Like, everyone on any security show/podcast/blog is talking about it.

Sure, but those vulnerabilities aren’t just open to the network. Almost every one requires you to be able to run at least unprivileged arbitrary code on the machine.

How vulnerable your system is with an old kernel/old code depends on what you’re running. If you’re running a bunch of sophisticated services that allow access on the open internet, you may have more vulnerabilities than if you’re just running a file share. The kernel doesn’t really matter at all unless either you allow other people to run commands or someone is able to exploit a RCE exploit.

Coffee.

I transferred my entire NAS storage, which includes all of my backups, cloud files, my family’s backups, and my… Linux ISOs. That was about 12TB.

Or as I’ve started called it recently, Google+ Linux.

More like, Mom can we get Arch btw?

No we have Arch btw at home.

Arch btw at home:

I’ve tried to move as much as I can into Flatpak. That way I can just copy my .var folder, and all my apps are migrated.

For other things like my configs, I use a git repo.

I use Proxmox for the machine that I use to download all of the Linux ISOs I want. You know, with a VPN, through BitTorrent. Linux ISOs.

I switched in 2008, so not that far off.

Wayland is getting better every day. Check back in a year, and it’ll probably be ready for you. :)

If I have a gun or am in charge of security, sure. If I’m just flipping burgers, absolutely not. The security camera in the corner is plenty.

Selling it yourself on a site like eBay may get you more money (if you’re good at it), but it will be time consuming and you’ll have to learn a lot.

Selling it as a whole lot will be faster, but probably will get you a lot less money. Especially if you sell it to a second hand shop, who will be trying to make money.

Selling it through a consignment service will get you better money than through a second hand shop, but may take just as long as selling it on your own. However, you won’t have to do the work yourself, and they’ll probably be able to sell it for a higher gross price, they’ll just take their fair cut for the service.

So really it’s just how much work you want to do, and how quickly you’d like to sell it. If you have an accurate appraisal and inventory, you can see what some consignment services think about it.
