The good news is that in order to exploit the new vulnerability, the attacker first has to obtain kernel level access to the system somehow - by exploiting some other vulnerabilities perhaps.
The bad news is once Sinkclose attack is performed, it can be hard to detect and mitigate: it can even survive an OS reinstall.
That makes some sense I suppose. What was it about DragonFlyBSD and macOS kernel?
Faster in what sense? Would you kindly point me to the benchmarks used? It’s easy to find the opposite results so I’m curious.
You’re right - I misunderstood the question and thought you meant the distribution images
At least Kali and Arch do
Unless you’ve used something secure for formatting or wrote data to the SD after, consider attempting data recovery.
That’s not my experience - have been using arch for around four years and it broke only once by not letting me log into the system after I failed to update pam configs after the system upgrade.
I often stumble on this example of nix usage - a one-off shell with a a specific package. This is such a niche and seemingly unimportant use case, that it’s really strange to have it mentioned so often.
Like literally what’s the point of having a shell with ffmpeg? Why not simply install it? Even if you need something just once, just install it and then uninstall it, takes like 10 seconds.
The other use case that is often brought up is for managing dev environments, but for a lot of popular languages (Python, Node, Java, Rust, etc. ) there are proven environment management options already (pyenv and poetry, nvm, jenv, rustup). Not to mention Docker. In the corporate setting I haven’t seen nix replacing any of these.
From my limited experience using home manager under Linux and macOS:
All in all nix seems like a pretty concept but not too practical at the moment.
There’s no ZFS support in OpenBSD is there?
Not sure why you get downvoted so heavily, I have also found that adding a custom search engine is unnecessary hard in Firefox these days.
There is a way to get the “add” button back in the settings described here: https://superuser.com/a/1756774
It’s been discussed on Hacker news recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37551474
I’m running Arch on my RPI 4b+ and quite happy with it.
The installation was pretty simple IIRC - I did run into some issue with uboot which was easily solved by searching for the error on the internet.
Arch Linux ARM ships with a mainline aarch64 kernel and uboot by default, but if you are interested in running the RPI kernel and their boot loader, there’s a custom pacman repo and instruction on the forums: https://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16144
All in all I don’t think arch needs that much maintenance on a non-critical home server - just make sure to check for config updates every now and then and reboot after kernel upgrades.
I just added it to the home screen, and so far, it’s my favorite between Mlem and using the default web interface. Thanks for mentioning it!
Everyone’s workflow is different and it could very well be that the plasma tiling features weren’t a good match for the author of that video.
My tiling needs are pretty simple and I rarely use anything more complicated than a vertical split.
There were also major changes in the plasma tiling earlier this year so if that video predates the concerns no longer apply.
You’d probably have to give it a try to see if all the features you need nicely work with a keyboard.
KDE has pretty good tiling functionality these days, not much need in using another WM unless you have a very specific workflow in mind
I’ve played the GOG version on Deck but if anything Steam version probably runs even better. Text and UI size was sufficiently large - I would maybe want to increase the text size by another 10%.
It has really good in game controller support with all sorts of hints on the UI. The movement is done using a joystick IIRC. I don’t remember using trackpad or joystick as a mouse much, but maybe for some object interaction?
All in all I’ve played through the whole game on Deck and highly recommend it.
Another one here! Mostly playing Witcher 3 at the moment. And before that Disco Elysium.
