But this issue wasn't found because of code analysis per se, but because of microbenchmarking.
Oh, we play dumb ad-hominem without any basis in reality?
I can play this too: Was your last school homework hard?
If the vulnerability is in the wild, what other security mechanisms do you have until it's patched?
The only real downside on the open source side is that the fix is also public, and thus the recipe how to exploit the backdoor.
If there's a massive CVE on a closed source system, you get a super high-level description of the issue and that's it.
If there's one on an open source system, you get ready-made "proof of concepts" on github that any script kiddy can exploit.
And since not every software can be updated instantly, you are left with millions of vulnerable servers/PCs and a lot of happy script kiddies.
See, for example, Log4Shell.
Just plant the tree on the neighbours property ;)
Mhm. Please quote me where I said anything about that. You are projecting.
Most people I helped getting Linux to work are actually not techy at all and they haven't touched the CLI at all so far...
I guess it differs if you use Linux because you are interested in the technology or if you use it because Windows 11 doesn't run on your PC.
Tbh, I don't recommend beginners to try out multiple distros in the beginning. Realistically, if you don't have in depth Linux knowledge already, all you'll be able to differentiate is the look of the DE and the wallpaper.
I find, too much choice tends to confuse beginners more than it helps them.
So I'd rather recommend something simple like Ubuntu and let them try out the flavours with the different DEs.
Choice is better for later when people actually understand what they are looking for.
While you are right, it is important to consider that Hamas has very low support in the population of Palestine, similar to Netanjahu and his fascist government having rather little support in the Israeli population.
The corrupt and criminal leaderships of both countries are fighting a war for their own advantage and civilians on both sides (though ~20x Palestinians than Israelis) are dieing for a war they just want to end.
To the first point: no. There is no wide-spread hunger yet. People on the very low end of the income scale are suffering and many are homeless, but that's not what the majority of the people experience. The middle class currently mostly takes hits to their savings or to their comfort, but they still have a roof over their heads and they still don't suffer hunger.
To the second point, I can only speculate. I think the EU has a rather stable system. Individual countries might shift to the left or right, but the whole system of the EU is made to prevent anything really bad. Secession from the EU is something that no current member state of the EU can afford and after Brexit not even rightwing extremists want to seriously leave the EU.
The USA isn't setup nearly as stable, since they are still running one of the earliest democratic systems in the world. I see two (not mutually exclusive) options there.
- A republican dictatorship, which is not too difficult for them, because all you really need is the president and the surpreme court being corrupt enough to want that power.
- Secession of multipe states. Texas is testing the waters, and if they actually seceede, other states might follow. This might either lead to a new edition of the civil war, or multiple rogue nations with nukes. Either way, the USA's status as an economic and military superpower would be gone. This again would destabilize Europe, since the EU currently doesn't have the military power to defend itself without NATO. What will happen from there on is anyone's guess.

That might sadly be true.
That happens if you don't have an actual legal team... I am sure they are doing their best, but if you don't have a lawyer, you can't do legal texts.
And you are not getting the point. Every method of killing people is terrible and inhumane. There is no humane way of killing people, because the very act of killing people is inhumane.
The only humane method is one that doesn't kill or harm people.
All of these happened in the wake of major crises.
Apartheit in South Africa ended, because of massive protests in the country (including violence), massive international pressure (the UN labelled apartheit as crime against humanity and lots of countries banned imports from South Africa), and the South African economy was collapsing due the price of gold dropping a lot.
East Germany collapsed because of massive economic problems. Storming the border crossings was just the last push. If that would have happened 10 years earlier, the police would just have shot the first row of people trying to cross the border and the rest would have fled. The DDR was already collapsing at that point. And the press conference that caused the storm on the border crossing was actually about East Germany opening the border in a month's time. So even without the storm on the border crossings, the same thing would have happend, just a month later.
The Sovjet Union, again, collapsed due to economic problems. Their economiy completely collapsed and with it their power over all the different SSRs. Russia, being the largest and most powerful SSR, being able declaring itself independent of all these other countries that really didn't want to be part of the USSR without having to use violence is really not surprising.
It's kinda as if Great Brittain declared itself independent of the Brittish Empire.
All these situations you mentioned where already under way for a decade or so, before the events you mentioned did the last push. And all of them where only possible to massive crises.

Problem with KDE+Nvidia+Proton
I recently switched my entertainment laptop to Linux after having my work devices on it for a few years.
The laptop has a Gforce 1050 Max-Q in it. I'm trying to run games from Steam that officially don't support Linux.
If I set the PRIME profile in the Nvidia control panel to "Nvidia only", everything works as expected.
But if I set the profile to "On demand", the whole system freezes a few seconds after I open a game.
I read some vague comment on Reddit saying it might have something to do with me using KDE.
If I run it on the Intel GPU, it works no matter what profile is set (but super slow).
The system is freshly installed using the proprietary Nvidia driver version 535.
Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

Btw: Is there maybe someone who wants to make a little side money? There are tons of people who say they'd buy this, but I don't want to make them.
The designs are all online and I'm happy to help. So if someone wants to make and sell them, that would be really cool! (I don't want or need any financial compensation. I'd just be happy if people have access to this.)

Switching RST to AHCI without losing data
My laptop switched from AHCI to RST on its own (probably after a Windows update) and now I cannot boot my Kubuntu anymore. Live sticks also cannot access the drives. When I try to switch it back in the UEFI settings, it tells me that it will wipe the drive to do so.
Is this message correct? How can I change it back without losing all my data?
The device in question is a Lenovo Ideapad 720-15ikb with Kubuntu and Win10 dual boot.
/r/Austria geht inzwischen gar nicht mehr
Ich hab mal wieder bisserl meine Zechen bei Reddit reingedrippt, und es direkt bereut.
Auf /r/Austria, was früher ganz nett und angenehm war, sind irgendwie nur mehr Rechte unterwegs. Dauerhaftes Schimpfen über Ausländer, Zahlen und Fakten interessieren niemanden mehr. Ist echt schlimm.
Zechen sind auf jeden Fall wieder eingezogen und ich bleib hier.
What's the fundamental difference between Fediverse/ActivityPub/Lemmy and the Usenet?
After reading a bit about Usenet, it seems to me as if the whole Fediverse seems to be just a reinvention of Usenet.
What's the big difference?

Challenge: Bot Wars
Everybody should host their own instance of the SquareModBot with their own rules, and the challenge is to figure out what the rules are and post a post/comment that doesn't violate the rules of any bot.

Braucht wer einen Mod Bot?
Contribute to Dakkaron/SquareModBot development by creating an account on GitHub.
Ich hab einen Mod Bot geschrieben, der nach konfigurierbaren Regeln konfigurierbare Aktionen automatisch ausführt. Für feddit.de habe ich den auch selbst gehostet. Für andere Instanzen muss ich noch schauen, wie ich dort mach, mal sehen.
Der Code ist auf Github verfügbar. Wer den Mod Bot verwenden will, kann entweder selbst einen Bot-Account erstellen und den Bot irgendwo laufen lassen (braucht quasi keine Ressourcen, rennt bequem auf einem Pi Zero oder einem alten Handy), oder Square_Mod_Bot zum Moderator in der Community machen und mir die Config per PN schicken.
Ich kann auch gerne helfen beim Erstellen einer Config.
Der Bot ist aktuell im Early Access, funktioniert aber stabil. Ich könnte noch Input gebrauchen, welche Trigger/Aktionen oder weitere Features sinnvoll wären.
