My issue is that I don’t want to have to register for shit like that. If it’s security related, and it’s a free Linux distro (e.g. not RHEL, etc), it is absolutely not appropriate to diminish anonymity in exchange for those updates, or to paywall them.
Lmao theres gotta be a timeline in which Malibal ships to the DPRK and ONLY the DPRK
I’ve had a T series with a 5850 in it for a while now, and it’s an absolute champ. Definitely one of the best laptops I’ve owned.
Can you explain the specific functionality that you’re looking for…? I don’t understand your objection here.
I wouldn’t
I mean… I was sort of taking “good” code to imply “not malicious”, in addition to it being written well. But yeah, I completely agree, in the context of attack vectors you mention.
git push
_plop_
But the main point is that good and well-written code doesn’t need this sort of misdirection, nor would the authors generally engage in this sort of thing
Flatpak has its issues, sure, but it’s better and more open than snap, while maintaining utterly simple usability.
I mean either way you’re gonna bottleneck on the 1G port
Uh, if you’re wanting to go above 1G, this thing is not going to cut the mustard. Seriously, why would they give it a 2.5G WAN port paired with a 1G LAN port? That’s so dumb.
Are you me?
Microsoft
OutlookOutage
Tbh those things are great little thin clients to leave near your couch, despite their age
Codeberg is pretty legit
There was a two-generation long lithography issue that they had not been able to solve. You are grossly understating the technical scope of the problem, as well as the trust issues Intel themselves created with the way they handled the whole debacle.
I’m not ever going to buy a 13/14 gen Intel core unless it’s at absolute bargain basement prices. In a professional IT context, nobody in purchasing departments should be buying the impacted SKUs in the affected date range (and practically, that means “they won’t buy those SKUs, full stop”).
…it’s a paid subscription service that the base os nags you to upgrade to?
Huh. That’s actually pretty cool. Not my favorite distro these days for several reasons, but that aside, it’s great to see more robust support on ARM laptops.
Eh. Do they still have Ubuntu Pro ads in the update UI? If so: stop, then I’ll care.
Genuinely, the vociferous pushback against Rust by a small minority of irrational C purist assholes is so, so dumb.
