Ngl, I forgtet command options all the time. Its usually just a case of looking at the man to refresh my memory.

Also, command line allows for greater automation, has more granular control, often has more features and can be… I’m doing ain’t I? I’m being a Freeza.

Im just curious, what makes you say that PDF is a shitty format? I remember starting to read a book on PDFs before when I was trying to learn to code with them and being surprised how much work it actually entailed.

SELinux is an access control system for Linux. Traditionally Linux uses Dynamic Access Control (DAC) which basically means the person who creates a file can determine who can access that file. Thats pretty fine for day to day use but there are some problems with this model in terms of security. One I can think of is that it’s more vulnerable to privilege escalation (a hacker getting access to a higher level account like admin through a lower level account) because it puts the onus on the user to define who can access the file. SELinux was invented by our good friends at the NSA to remedy these kinds of problems. It’s an example of Mandatory Access Control. It works on top of DAC by creating policies that work to prevent things like privilage escalation. It’s also a lot more comprehensive than DAC. It allows for things context based access, taking into account the broader security context of an access attempt, the user’s role, etc.

I’m actually not entirely sure why some people don’t like it. Understandably, some people are wary of anything the NSA let’s out into the public. But as it’s open source and has been integrated into a number of Linux distros like Fedora, it’s unlikely they’ve backdoored it. If I was to hazard a guess, I’d say some people don’t like it for the same reason they don’t like systemd: Linux has often been an OS where user’s like a big degree of control through simple traditional systems and those don’t like the idea of losing some of that control to the complexity overhead involved in these new systems.

This app is great. Thanks.

I really appreciate this list and use lots of applications like this but I would find it impossible to complety replace YouTube with PeerTube.

Awh. I was gonna go with Floorp on the name alone. Great name…

Is that the difference between when something like Google Maps has your general location and when it has your specific location?

That statements is actually infused with some racial epithets.

Vi is actually a predecessor to Vim but many people, myself included, will alias Nvim or Vim to Vi. And I’ve seen people use Vi as a catch all too.

Is that… Fun?

Ah. Okay. It took me a moment to get this person’s perspective on this. They’re a non-US citizen who’s asserting that this person’s ‘wokism’ (i.e. nont being a prick) is hypocritical because they didn’t voice their concerns over the exile of Russian devs from the Linux Kernel. Isn’t that kind of a mix of a straw man (not clear what this ‘woke’ person’s views are on that; troll makes assertions on what the ‘woke’ person didn’t say) and an ad hominem (this ‘woke’ didn’t argue against anti-Russian sentiment, therefore their arguments for equality are invalid).

I feel like I’ve wasted my time considering what this clown had to say.

I like to think it was a wordplay.

or that it’s unfixable

Just out of interest. What are some of these unfixable issues?

Absolutely. So much of the libertarian argument for capitalist competition fall apart when faced with the reality of monopolies and oligopolies that control the markets. It’s honestly such a farcical ideology.

Please don’t insult pigs by comparing them to that cunt.

I’ve seen this photo a bunch of times. Who is this guy? And why is high flipping the bird?
