The article talks about sudo
and doas
being SUID binaries and having a larger attack surface than run0
would. Could someone ELI5 what this means?
Thanks for the info!
Is there some drama I’m not aware of here?
Also there are 40-something packages depending on it, so I guess it gets pulled automatically when they are used.
You’ll find an npm package to help you count up to 2.
(I recently learned - maybe here - that the is-even package has over 170k weekly downloads)
You also need full root access to you bank’s machines.
For the execution, can’t you configure the fstab with noexec on partitions where the user has write permissions and give the user read-only permissions on the root partition ?
I think this would be fine for most jobs, the exception being software development where you usually need to execute stuff to test your programs.
This was an interesting read for me.
So far, I’ve been exposed to bash as the default shell, I then switched to zsh because I wanted the oh-my-zsh experience and recently I discovered fish because it is ships with my current gaming distro (Garuda).
I never really gave it much thought, I do too little shell-scripting to really remember syntax and open a search engine any time I want to write another script.
The part that speaks the most to me is towards the end: it’s ok to have nice things, and writing scripts should be fun. The first programming language I used was Ruby, and to this day I never really found the same syntactic niceness in another language (C, Java, Rust, JS).
Mainly for this reason, this article makes me want to try Nushell.
From the gitlab page:
The user can move the cursor with
h,j,k,l
(vim keys), or the arrow keys.
OVH because cheap enough for me, europe based and reliable.
Yes you can.
I spend a lot od time fixing things that I broke because I like it and it’s a hobby for me.
I installed Linux Mint Debian Edition on my SO’s laptop last year (old thinkpad t470) and I haven’t had to do anything about it since then. The installation process was easy, I didn’t bother changing the defaults and just clicked “Next” on most of the steps.
Can you share with us the hardware you’ll be using ? In most cases it’ll be easy peasy, but some stuff is known to cause issues that we might be able to identify before you start your journey.
I wish our current lead would read your post !
Please stop posting good reasons to use Linux, I already feel bad enough for the poor people stuck in Win$ and MacO$
NeoMutt is an easy to use and cool looking tui email client.
My personnal favorite is cmus Small, fast and powerful console music player
They are not storing music on the floppys, only playlist identifiers and they want their system to listen on floppy insert events and launch a playlist when the matching floppy is inserted.
CachyOS (arch-based) because I read somewhere it was good for gaming on recent rigs (supposedly pre-optimized stuff that I’ll probably never learn about).
So far so good, it’s been an almost “everything works out of the box” experience.
Had mainly used debian and arch before that.
At last I’ll be able to get a decent accuracy score despite my oyster-like reflexes :)
