  • but why

    seriously. now you basically don't have access to a large number of packages. sure, waterfox is a good alternative to firefox. but say you do want to install firefox (or any other package that canonical distributes only as a snap), what do you do?

    I get that it's possible to run Kubuntu, or even stock Ubuntu, without snap. that's the beauty of an open OS, you can do whatever you want with it. I just don't get why you would want to run a distro that is actively pushing a standard on you that you don't want

  • Ubuntu based distros

  • I think that's what they were saying: it still uses Ubuntu repositories, which use snap. So to install, e.g. Firefox natively, you need to manually meddle with PPAs, or compile from source. The package manger, arguably the biggest strength of any Linux distro, becomes next to useless unless you want to run snaps

  • This really didn't need the big nose. Using antisemitic tropes in critique of Israel plays right into the hands of their propaganda. Those genociders want to be the victims, so any critique can be stamped as antisemitism. Don't play their game.

  • finishing torrents and seeding question

    Jump

  • Generally, no. Some private trackers will give you trouble for it, but it's not a terrible thing to do. It just means there are less sources of those files for other peers. This could lead to someone not getting the full download and being stuck at 99%, if you're the only seeder online. For popular torrents, no harm done at all

  • "The essence of my happiness is fighting for the happiness of others. It's strange, why is it that in grammar, the word "happiness" can only be singular? That is counter to its meaning, after all. ... If it turns necessary to die for the common happiness, then I'm braced to."

    What a badass.

  • OpenAI claims new GPT-5 model boosts ChatGPT to ‘PhD level’

    Jump

  • Without a doubt. But PhD level thinking requires a kind of introspection that LLMs (currently) just don't have. And the letter counting thing is a funny example of that inaccuracy

  • YSK The World’s Most Common Passwords

    Jump

  • It's not. A dictionary has on the order of ≈100,000 (105) words in it. Picking five words entirely at random gives you 1025 combinations, which is about the complexity of 14 alphanumeric characters. So pretty secure.

  • YSK The World’s Most Common Passwords

    Jump

  • That's okay at best. Better if a passphrase, just random, impersonal words, something like this (~50 bits of entropy):

    "virtual raging vineyard clad runner"

    Best is a long, completely random string, stored in the password manager that you should be using anyways ~150 bits of entropy):

    "hX0hZ1QTWtQo(h[Ta9jH]TmsVIhUTgSE"

  • But they don't recognize their inadequacies, instead spouting confident misinformation

  • Dotfiles feel too intimate and personal to share

    Jump

  • I've done that for one or two modules, but if that's too much, I just do the hackjob solution: have the actual dot files in the repo and include them in the config, so nixos copies then to the store read-only and links them to my home. But I've had that come up pretty rarely, tbh. I don't know if Home-Manager has become more comprehensive or if I'm just not that demanding, but I've only had a handful of modules where I needed to do significant tinkering

  • Dotfiles feel too intimate and personal to share

    Jump

  • I use nixos (with Home-Manager), so I have everything in a declarative configuration. I have all of that in a public repo (well not quite all, I have my email setup in a private repo that's included in the configuration).
