As much as I despise MS and think they are equally incompetent, I don't think it's a good idea to lock down Windows. They will stop providing kernel access to 3rd parties at first, then a few months later you will only be able to download software from the Microsoft Store.
Yes, it's a security issue but them being allowed to close down their OS sets a dangerous precedent that will make Windows even more shittier and enshittified than it already is.
The default config for sudo is to ask for root password. I too was annoyed by this and had to change the setting to ask for the user password, not root, every time I used sudo.
Can someone ELI5 what's going on? Seems like they are still fighting about Nix allowing a defense company to sponsor their conferences, and trying to ad hominem the project leaders.
I have ASUS B450M PRIME GAMING and after installing the driver, the chassis fan sensors were detected and I could use CoolerCtrl to draw the fan curve.
I don't quite like CoolerCtrl because of its UI, seems to be web based, but it works and has a daemon mode to start minimized on startup.
I tried 5 different credit cards to setup my account and none of them worked for the free tier. Contacted customer support, they simply said "well we can't do anything about it, it's clearly a problem in your end and not ours even though you tried 5 different credit cards to pay for the service".
My issues with Samsung nowadays is that they offer a very low TBW warranty compared to other brands like Kingston.
I wanted to buy a 1TB storage for my games and I couldn't decide between Samsung and Kingston. Samsung had a 600TBW warranty for the 1TB model, Kingston had 800. I ended up choosing the KC3000 from Kingston.
That doesn't seem to be the case. From what I read on HN, the dev quit because he thought it didn't make sense to submit CVEs for temporary/wip solutions, and F5 thought otherwise.
So as I see it, the developer quit because he didn't agree that a CVE should be opened for a work-in-progress solution that was live on Nginx.
So... not using Signal because it's based off a conspiracy theory that it's secretly funded by CIA?
Well, let's stop using RSA and encryption because the most used secure crypto algorithms today were created by none other than the NSA!
EDIT: None of the alternatives provided are good alternatives for Signal. Matrix is an extremely complicated protocol that lacks some features compared to normal IM apps (I use Matrix and the experience is quite close to a standard messaging app). XMPP is dead and has a very niche userbase. The others are not suitable for being a daily messaging app.
Signal is a good alternative and while I do agree with some points, they are not bad enough to prevent you from using it (e.g. not having usernames).
It's still not an excuse to just ignore the security update because you might not be a target for hackers.
Just check your logs, there's probably a dozen or more requests trying to access wordpress pages on your server, or login via SSH. They want to take over your server so it can be part of a botnet.
I think so, but if you check the official image you can definitely find out how to include custom plugins in it. I think the documentation might mention a thing or two about it too.
I had a similar issue with my laptop, where Arch wouldn't be recognized as a bootable system on my NVMe drive unless I disabled RST with Optane on the BIOS, setting it to AHCI mode.
I do remember seeing a similar issue a while ago as well, but I don't remember if the user managed to fix it.
I could suggest removing the Windows drive, installing Arch and checking if everything works, then plugging the Windows drive back in. Windows loves to delete non-Windoes bootloaders from every drive it can.
The same issue happens to me when opening links from any app on Wayland. For example, every time I click a link on a Discord chat, I have to manually click on the Firefox window because the focus is not automatic.
