sftpgo is a nice project to host files in a secure way without too much hassle.

While I don’t agree with your first point from my experience, the second one is very true. Especially for memory consumption, your typical Java app easily occupies five times as much as something more bare metal.

There aren’t many distro with a base system as tiny as Arch. It’s not a bad choice at all. It’s on my server since many years, working perfectly reliable. Everything except the base system is inside Podman containers. Why not?

An offline version of Wikipedia would be handy though.

I think that’s for LGPL. For GLP any form of linking requires the code to be licensed under GPL, too. The dynamic linking except isn’t that bad of you think about it. It gives you the freedom to update or replace the library at any time. For security critical libs (TLS, GPG, …) that’s a big plus.

Not a remake but I think another addon for Diablo 2 would still be awesome.

He might have convinced himself already. That doesn’t change the facts though.

I second this. People usually recommend Ubuntu for beginners which I can somewhat understand because it’s super easy to get started. But the downside is that you’ll most likely stay a beginner and don’t understand the absolute basics of a Linux based OS because, well, most of the time you don’t have to. Then you make a beginner’s mistake once and there you go.

But isn’t the church the reason why he feels that way in the first place?

Also, there’s usually a 2nd safety mechanism that prevents it from popping up.

Just keep in mind that after update support ends, it’s a ticking time bomb. And there’s basically no “second life” for it because it’s so locked down.

It’s the amount of legacy it’s carrying on that drives me crazy. Many of the implicit default implementations are confusing. That’s where all these “rule of 3”, “rule of 7”, “rule of whatever” come from. The way arguments are passed into functions is another issue. From the call-side you (sometimes) cannot tell if you’ll end up with a moved value or a dangling reference. The compiler will not stop you from using it. Even if the compiler has something to tell you, it’ll do it on the most cryptic way possible. I’m grateful we have C++, it paid lots of my bills. But it’s also a pain in the ass.

[ is a binary (sometimes a symlink) in /usr/bin. It’s /usr/bin/[ 🤓

You’re not safe from Google though. And that’s quite a big backdoor if you’re a target of interest.

My girlfriend bought a really cheap one from Lenovo. Besides watching movies and browsing the web there’s not much you can do because ChromeOS is extremely limiting. Wouldn’t ever recommend anyone to buy anything with ChromeOS on it.

Just craft one yourself, it’s not that hard. Chop a few trees for the wood, craft the workbench, dig down a bit for the diamonds and there you go!

That’s because the opposition of the drug legalization is having world’s biggest drug festival in Munich right now.

They usually end like this: “it was an accident, the guy tripped over something and fell onto/into the vagina”. Sounds like a bad joke but unfortunately it’s not.

you could find yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I like that one. It’s funny because it’s so generic.

I’m using Vim on Arch but I’m vegetarian, not vegan. Anyway, that would be my order.
