The Xbox One controller is a bit goofy. I noticed the newest firmware actually makes it misbehave with the usual stack under linux. Haven’t had the time to debug since my controller was on it’s last legs anyway. Try rolling it back a release or 2.

Ah, makes sense it would be targeted twards banking and financial businesses specifically. Better pinch point than some random commerce. In that case audits would be less problematic, though I’m not sure why outsourcing this data is even an option with the current rules. It’s not like a business can be completely hands off in the acquisition or processing of that info.


I’m uninformed about this, but do KYC laws come into effect at some profit point or are they globally enforced. I don’t see how any small businesses could possibly afford a 3rd party audit, or how that would even scale. I agree it’s necessary, but logistically it seems problematic.
I suppose I could have phrased that better. The registers themselves correspond to particular applications/stages, but the values store in those registers should change based on how the application/stage was loaded. Switch the order or inject a new binary and the hash from that stage on should change.
Any changes in the boot process should change various PCR registers. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Trusted_Platform_Module#Accessing_PCR_registers


Usual tracking and fingerprinting issues. Would need to sandbox it to make it secure, but that then makes the fake traffic easier to identify. Not worth it in the end.


That defeats the privacy and bandwidth reasons you’d want to use uBlock but that’s close to the operating idea of AdNauseam.

I just want some doc language that handles conditional sections sanely and has useful appendix tools.
I think one has to cope with it the same way the inventor of the ice pick had to cope with Walter Jackson Freeman II. You can’t really control what people do with your tools. If you think someone actively destroying lives will bend to the whims of a license, that’s cool. I wish I had that level of optimism. Right now it’s still pulling teeth to get companies to respect GPLv3.
I haven’t heard anyone talk about puppy Linux in a bit. That used to be the go to for ultra lightweight setups.


“I want to know why this is broken. How to fix it can come later.”
Arch. Started using it in high school. Never had a reason to switch. Now I’m just regularly frustrated by other distros trying to make things easier by abstracting simple configurations behind layers of custom scripts.
AUR, when I can. I run my own binary package repo. App images are an interesting concept, but usually they are compiled against ancient versions of glibc for increased compatibility. Optimizations and CVE patches may or may not be applied, LD lookups are longer, etc.


Sway still primarily counts as a WM + Compositor, but considering it has keymaps, autostart, and libinput config mechanisms embedded in it, I would say it borders a desktop environment.


The real problem: Define beginner distro
Every user is starting from a different point. There is no such thing as a beginner distro. You can say this distro is good for people who can grasp the idea of a command line or this distro is good for people who have no idea command line interfaces exist, but that doesn’t differentiate between beginner friendly or not.


Executing a command, capturing all terminal formatting and escape codes so I can do some light manipulation on leading whitespace before dumping it back to the terminal.


People always sleep on script. It’s badass and let’s you do goofy things like this while keeping standard terminal formatting: https://github.com/StaticRocket/dotfiles/blob/043e9a56cc9515060188ec4642e4048c0dd6c000/dot_bashrc#L79-L94
Isn’t that the main reason why “open source always wins”? What do old industry folk think made open source software so prevalent in the modern software landscape if not explicitly this reason? We can debate security, archival, extended support, but at the end of the day isn’t this the explicitly the main reason? Centralized development efforts for a greater good?
