Still didn’t critically break any of the good operating systems though. Because no other operating system would run Crowdstrike as a critical “must be present” driver.

You can say it’s legitimate interest, doesn’t make it true.

To be fair. That’s your ethernet jack and your security that you’re abusing.

It can only be drugs and/or nepotism and/or bank of mum and dad.

The framework is called AdminLTE, it’s bootstrap.

I’m still not calling it GNU

The upside could be huge, this is where millionaires are made if you kick arse and get stock options…

The downside would just be culture. Can you hack it? Got a thick skin? There probably isn’t an HR to complain to.

Sorry you’re right. I’m actually not across the matter enough to comment and have only heard the “autistic kid” part through like third hand knowledge.

Although everyone is on the spectrum somewhere, especially in the IT space.

But you’re right, the take away from this is I should learn about the topic better.

Backdoor? Even if it isn’t blatantly obvious - some autistic kid will notice a program runs 0.05 seconds slower and will work it out.

At the very least if you’re going to be backdooring your code you might as well add “back door goes here” to your PR so we can easily cut it out when the hard fork happens without the backdoor included.

There’s been tens of dozens of annoyances over the last decade.

Literally not even boiling the frog at this point, the frog is fried.

Yeah all good democracies have between 0 and 2 options.

Yeah you probably need a second IP address on the VPS though.

I open a wire guard tunnel from home to the VPS and then tunnel an Nginx ingress down the VPS.

Plex turned shit years ago.

Switched to Jellyfin and never looked back.

Even rubbed it in my just deleting my Plex accounts with the lifetime pass on it, means nothing to me now.

This and “hey guys”

The US is especially authoritarian.

And if you think you actually have a choice in candidates, let alone any good ones you’re sorely mistaking.

Voter suppression is a widely used tactic to influence votes away from low socio economic areas and black communities.

Oh yeah I’m not denying that.

I’m just saying its short sighted to take any shots at China when the west are authoritarian themselves.

The US government is a dangerous authoritarian government and they heavily influence private business in very nasty ways.

No, I’ve chosen Linux.

I’m letting developers choose whether they want a chance at earning my money or not.

EndeavourOS

Check your games on ProtonDB. But I stopped letting developers dictate which OS I used 10 years ago. If it doesn’t work on Linux, I don’t buy it.

10 years strong on Linux and still the only windows laptop I have at home is the one my work gave me to use.
