When I was in highschool, for the first few months of my freshman year I had a couple of classes that took place inside those old “mobile home” style class rooms (idk what they’re called lol). They were old, kinda smelly, the AC unit was loud, and I loved it.

But then they finished construction of a new multi-storied building and relocated all those classes. Every classroom was an identical, minimalist cement rectangle with perfectly white walls and high tech whiteboards. I hated it, and actually felt like it made it harder to focus. Nobody agreed with me when I said the old classrooms were better :(

This is actually impressive. Y’all dunking on it probably don’t realize just how tiny this company is, yet they somehow managed to pull this off without being just another Clevo reseller. It’s a whole custom chassis that actually looks sick, and a sane keyboard layout.

Unfortunately, this is probably the worst possible time to launch a laptop. Those prices are wild, and I say that as someone willing to pay a premium for Linux support. I also already upgraded recently, so it’ll be a pass from me for now… But I wish them the best of luck!

Are there any real life scenarios where an untrusted user is allowed access to a machine with an unprivileged account? I know there are (or were?) some public shared machines where you can ssh in for fun, but those aren’t serious.

I’m thinking maybe a POS system or kiosk running Linux, and there’s shell access? This could possibly also be useful for jailbreaking devices that ship with Linux, but are locked down… Maybe like a car infotainment system?

I’m not the guy you replied to, but what’s the point being made? It really does sound like they’re trying to say pay to play prevents cheaters.

Imagine you’re having a conversation with a stranger. He seems cool, you guys share some interests, even some controversial opinions. You two are on track to becoming friends! …But then right before the convo ends, he starts talking about how the earth is flat, and flouride in the water supply is a CIA conspiracy to make frogs gay.

That is the same visceral reaction I get when I read a sentence like this:

When I last wrote about my experience with CachyOS, I bemoaned the absence of the Arc browser.

lsd is written in Rust, which I personally have no problem with but there are people that do

Huh? Do you mean to say it’s non-GPL? Some people have been going around rewriting GPL C/C++ utilities in Rust, but publishing them under non-GPL licenses, and that has been controversial. I don’t think I’ve seen people having a problem with Rust specifically.

What do you mean by “IDLE”? That it’s sleeping or hibernating, or that you’re just not actively using it? Just because you’re not using it doesn’t mean it isn’t doing anything. Even if you have no apps running, modern operating systems tend to have plenty of background tasks that run periodically.

Open a terminal window, type “top” and press enter. That will show a live view of the processes running in the background (press Q to quit).

Maybe this will help you?

Idk about xinput, but my first assumption is that the reason it doesn’t work in some apps is because of Xorg vs Wayland. An evdev based solution should work universally.

Coil whine can come from your power supply, and it’s a fairly common phenomenon with low quality ones. I don’t think it has anything to do with your OS, unless maybe some background process is increasing power consumption and triggering the issue.

Use top or some other process monitoring tool to see if there’s anything running in the background while you hear it making the noise.

The solution would be to replace the part making the noise, whether that’s the PSU or something else. It’s ultimately a hardware defect.

Or, it could be the new disk(s), too.

I’ve never heard of an NVME with coil whine, but maybe they increase power consumption enough to trigger the issue? Or having extra disks in the system triggers some periodic background tasks that increase power usage. If you’re on Suse, that likely means you’re using Btrfs, which tends to do that.

And just imagine how high it could go this year if fucking RAM prices weren’t exploding and Steam Machine/Deck/Frame could be sane

I wonder how true that is. The author of this blog post seems to just be taking this guy’s word for it. Did Anthropic actually confirm the bug exists by trying to trigger it on real systems, or are they assuming it’s real because it looks plausible? The report claims you cam do it with two cooperating NFS clients, so did they actually do that, or are they just assuming it’ll work?

Yeah waste open source maintainers’ time by acting like a child. That will surely accomplish whatever you’re hoping to accomplish.

I think it’s more that Electron apps can be written in javascript, and there are way more javascript developers than any other kind. So you’re naturally going to see a lot more javascript software.

So it is, quite literally, a skill issue.

Peak bike shedding

So does this mean pagure itself is dead? Idk of anyone besides Fedora that was using it.

Anything “immutable”

• ublue family: Bazzite, Aurora, Bluefin
• Fedora Atomic family: Silverblue, Kinoite, …
• KDE Linux (experimental)
• OpenSuse MicroOS (for servers, but possible to add a desktop)
• SteamOS (limited hardware compat)

Any other answer is outdated and wrong.

Edit: holy shit the amount of mint recommendations is crazy. Stay away from mint, it sucks. It’s just a less reliable version of Ubuntu. If all you like its desktop environment, that’s called “Cinnamon”, and it can be installed in other distros.

Are they still closed source? If so, fuck em. This is only appealing to the Make Europe Great Again cucks who are willing to lock themselves into yet another walled garden just so they can claim “sovereignty”

The past two decades have proven that FOSS is the only way to obtain privacy and security. No borders necessary.

Wtf is this article? Its a dox and hitpiece against a random dude because he submitted a PR you don’t like? This is psychopath behavior. You don’t publish something like this unless you’re hoping something bad happens to them.

If this guy didn’t submit that PR, somebody else would have done it.

Grow up.

Phil is clearly an asshole. Why bend over backwards to save his project? Just let it die and move on. I know “Manjaro Linux” sounds cool, but a cool name isn’t worth all this drama, especially since the distro itself is nothing special.
