Nah, they are doing you a favor.

I always do minimal installs, so eh... guess that is a "Yes and no" for me.

Looks like we are about to see Crysis running "almost natively" on a rpi 5!

....eh?

By telling users to change their mindset, by showing em how control is important and how the "just werks" mentality imposed by Microsoft is more detrimental than anything.

So you are saying that dumbs can't read? Because hey, that is all it takes to troubleshoot a problem on linux.

Thus, even your grandmother can "do google" nowadays.

If you mean "dumb friendly" by "An exact Windows clone"... there are plenty of "Windowslike" Linux distros out there.

If you mean "user friendly" by "Easy to understand by any user"... then yes, (any) Linux distro is user friendly as is.

Nano is my "daily drive", but I'd use vim as well -- takes a couple seconds to search for "how to type in linux vim" and "how to save a file in linux vim" anyways. :^)

YEAH CRUISE CONTROL BABY

I go with the "quotation case", "Cool file name".

Everything is complicated if you aren't willing to commit/learn.

“I’m kissing convenience goodbye, I just want control."

He is in for a surprise when he realizes GNU/Linux is much more convenient than Winblows.

Curiosity and desire to learn.

tl;dr

Editing;

$photoortexteditoryoulike $(find / -iname incompletefilenam*)

Running;

exec $(find / -iname incompletepackagenam*)

Interacting (copying, moving, etc);

$desiredinteraction $(find / -iname desiredfileorpackag*) /desired/output/directory

It may be a "not-so-attractive" tip for most of you, but I find it really useful when I want to edit a specific file (that is located alongside several ones, like a picture or a text file). Or when I've finished compiling something and I want to find the binary file asap. Saves me lots of time on really slow pcs (like a rpi zero).

Title. Basically, a lower panel that shows the latest news, etc (fetched from a rss link or a sequence of rss links) while scrolling left (ala CNN). Why? I'm trying to make a "smart clock" of sorts that shows a live stream, a real time clock and -also- the latest news -- all crumbled together in a single screen.

I'm using a orange pi zero 3 w/ Dietpi installed. And due to the expected "crazyness" of this idea, I had to resort to you guys.

Thanks in advance.

Title. Been using "conventional mouses" since a while, and I'm in the mood to try something new. Even so considering its a ergonomic mouse that won't screw my wrists even more while gaming(I'm over 40 y/o).

There are plenty of reviews for it on the internet (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_2wixvrWPg&pp=ygUVcmFnbm9rIG1vdXNlIDIgcmV2aWV3 for instance) but I'd like to hear some "real world" reviews about it.

Title. Something that is minimal, has a daemon and a very KISS config file. Bonus points if it also has a "generic" setup (works for all pcs but its not optimal? So I could run this on my sbc.)

Thanks in advance.

-EDIT- Forgot to mention that I've got both AMD cpu and gpu.

Title. Basically, "if a street fighter gamer and a linux tryhard had a baby" where a combination of keys is issued to run a command/script rather than a single or a simultaneous stroke of two or more. i.e left, down, left, right arrow keys, R_CTRL to run Firefox. Right, right, Up, right arrow keys, delete to power off the PC, etc.

Don't know if such command exists, but there you go.

Bonus points if its a standalone and supports X11, Wayland and Arcan.

Nothing too shabby, but still. To run it you need docker, and after that just type

docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --read-only --net none --cap-drop=ALL --security-opt=no-new-privileges defnotgustavom/pixfire4

...and you will be greeted with a little, small, very pixelated bonfire.

"Why docker and not just a simple command?"

Mostly because of those two flags: --read-only and --net none. Can't get better than this. :^)

This also came up while in a self-learning process, but I don't want to "flex" it here.

ser*, and said non-root user being "nonexistant" (i.e set via ENV)? Can such container -STILL- be exploited/breached through malicious means? Forgot to mention that its a DOCKER container @ title, but there you have it. Just curious.

Thanks in advance.

Long, short story: CLI animation with some minor annoyances. "Handcrafted" most of em out of the .c file, followed by a bunch of gcc flags. Made it distroless, and this came up. Then my "sharing itch" started after checking the memory usage of the container at a whooping 0 bytes. (I know it must be way more than that, but still.). Just curious if I screwed something up or not. Also, c/Docker is really dead so I had to resort to you guys.

docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --net none --cap-drop=all --read-only --security-opt=no-new-privileges defnotgustavom/nyancat

Downvotes are to the left if you just don't care and need that dopamine/self-validation hit, I guess. (Just saying since last time I shared a simple command, with code and all, and I got downvoted to oblivion plus my thread deleted for no apparent reason, so eh.)

Title. Long,short story: creating or editing files with nano as my non-root user gives (the file) elevated privileges, like I have ran it w/ sudo or as root. And the (only) "security hole" that I can think of is a nextdns docker container running as root. That aside, its very "overkill" security-wise (cap_drop=ALL, non-root image, security_opt=no_new_privileges, etc.).

It's like someone tried to hack me but gave up halfway. Am I right or wrong to assume this? Just curious.

Thanks in advance.
