The Signal, a solution for everything encrypted over a wire, really?
What about Git, pass, Email, PDF, office documents?\
Did you read the post? Because that’s not what it said.
Got commits can be signed with ssh keys nowadays. Files can be encrypted with age.
Don’t encrypt email, it’s a waste of time.
What about your local dear encryption?
?
It’s not about whether GPG seemingly works, if it’s whether it is a suitable tool for what it’s advertised, and the answer within the expert community is no
2027 will probably also be bleak, if just for the backlog.
However, I’m pretty sure there’s also a lot of FUD in the current projections since hardware companies want their customers to believe that now is the best time to sign those expensive long-term contracts
Imagine buying hardware in 2026 ICANT
Missing the word “attacks”, a supply chain itself is a good thing
I think so too actually if you’re looking to learn the basics.
Arch has very little actual “distribution” in its system (mostly pacman and mkinitcpio) and the former is a glorified tar with a database, and while it can run scripts, you’re expected to configure and set up everyone yourself using the upstream tools, and these usually come vanilla
I daily drove it for 15 years before I switched so it’s not like Arch is insured for that. But if you want to learn the basics of modern Linux it’s a good choice
I have two windows 11 machines, both from work. The potent machine experiences this bug. The low-end Thinkpad shows the apps instantly.
No clue why they behave differently, but they do
Technically, the question was even easier (yes/no), but I agree with the sentiment
Well, but the question wasn’t “what is a hash used for”, but rather “what is a hash”
Keep in mind this is a statement by a manufacturer who’s trying to get his customers to sign long term contracts at current prices, so it’s in their interest to have people believe that the shortage continues.
Doesn’t mean it’s not possible, bit it should be read in that context
Just check their posts on phoronix
Often times when there was a big new update for GNOME, I’d try it out, decide I still don’t like the concept and go back to plasma.
I don’t get the appeal of that desktop. Even the tiniest changes need gnome-tweaks? Why isn’t that stuff part of the base settings? But ok. You can’t ungimp GNOME. The usage concept is baked into it. Fine. But why?
I mean there must be people who want this and nothing else, otherwise people wouldn’t use it.
These protections work at different layers and hence, you use both.
First off, you can’t really encrypt the first boot loader by design, your UEFI needs something it can read and run. You need to protect this first boot stage somehow, and this is what Secure Boot is for; it verifies the signature of the payload it starts to protect it against tampering.
GPG is just a mess overall, only place I think it makes sense are DNMs
I think once you’re at the level of caring about that stuff you’re no longer considered a newbie
Introducing the dummy thiccpad
I will roll into my grave
The difference between the two?
About ten minutes
Omarchy is so funny. There’s nothing interesting there (it’s just Arch with some questionable configs). It doesn’t solve any existing problem that wasn’t solved before, because it’s still Arch.
And yet the technofascists can’t stop supporting it. It must be virtue-signaling.
Wowie, you’ve credited another Arch fork derivative with a shitload of usage credit for your fourth-grade AI model. Surely this will have an impact on technology.
Then again, it’s a match made in heaven. Nobody cares about Omarchy, and about the same number of people would care about Grok if they couldn’t get pornography out of it.
