I’m sure they gave a level-headed, reasonable, rational response

It’s about control. If it wasn’t sex, it would be something else. Eg.: it is already also several other elses.


It also pronounces a bit like “LICKS”, which is a very nice coincidence.



Checks out
Pretty sure Krukenberg was a cenobite


Are you the mightiest horserer of the lands


I like the one that folds like a GBA SP.
Not that I’m gonna buy one based on that.
But if I’m choosing between two identical models but one folds (and I guess it isn’t that much more expensive), I’d go for the folding one.
Except, of course, for the fact that the next phone I buy will be Commodore’s Callback.


I mean
Like…
Yes?
Yes, that’s what happened. That is the correct word for it.
Attackers exploited vulnerabilities in a system in order to run code on other people’s machines


https://aur.archlinux.org/ warns you about it


You don’t get to see the code that way, which is where bad actors thrive. Also it wasn’t compiled for exactly your system.


You’re right, but web browsers can be pretty brutal to build and they are for sure never going to add -bin versions.


I think there was a word missing.
To respond to what I think you were saying, this event happened in the Arch User Repository, and not the official repositories.
Arch is very clear that they are not responsible for what goes on in the AUR. For example on https://aur.archlinux.org/ :
The Debian equivalent would be somewhere between extrepo and PPAs.


Unlikely.
Speaking of core parts of the system, I tried upgrading to 26.04 and it uninstalled coreutils to install their rust-based non-GPL version. Broke my system (just a test system, thankfully) so damn hard.
Just for fun I put the effort into recovering the system, had to scp individual binaries (mv, ln, mkdir…) until apt install --fix-broken would finish.
Hopefully they’ve fixed that. Last I saw, their official documentation (a buried blog page) blamed dpkg.
Oh! Their sudo-rs also made it so that Ansible plays failed on it. It’s fair to say “this is not trying to be a complete feature match with sudo”. It’s not fair to push that through when people need those features.
Their response there was also “yeah I don’t care, make the Ansible team fix it on their end”.
To be fair, the Ansible feature is “open an ssh connection and watch for this exact string that indicates that it’s listening for a password”.


Uhh
Which Microsoft products have you been using?


Debian since what, Bookworm? has been everything that Ubuntu advertised. That’s when they finally voted to include non-free drivers on the installation media. The one thing that made Ubuntu easier than Debian.


“Hey who wants to test our new coreutils in prod? Nobody? Fuck y’all you’re doing it anyway”
Already there :D
