  • Well look, the people at helper-scripts, they have done the legwork, often as groups, the probably that you even COULD do a better installation section is already very unlikely .. no more than that it's implausible. These people are more dedicated, they started earlier and they're already done, you are not going to do a better job than them, even if you tried, by the time you did, which realistically, unless you're doing linux for money, you probably won't even finish, but even then by the time you've re-invented the entire wheel, they will have progressed further, and there is more of them than there is of you, you will NEVER catch up.

    But listen, I hear you, I hear your paranoia, your belief that there are bad people out there out to get you. Well I'm sorry but I have to tell you, those people simply do not care enough to break in to helper-scripts. Even if they did they'd get found out. It hasn't even happenned yet even though the effort has been a huge success of people just like you coming together and dealing to put an end to the endless linux bullshiterry and making things actually work.

    The odds that someone will manage to infiltrate without anyone figuring it out are so low that they are in fact insignificant.

    Unless you have the resources of multiple militaries at your disposal, there is simply NO justification from trying to do your own helper-scripts, by yourself and then keep them for yourself. None, it's mental illness to even attempt.

  • I've never said a joke in my life

    Also read this, https://lemmy.ml/post/35479661/20837334

    It is worse to even try to do it yourself, you're more likely to mess up then if you just pipe those script into your root shells, even if you're an expect, because even one good expert is hopeless compared with multiple experts

  • Why else would so many of them step on the brake with both foots, shut down any way to streamline them out of the picture, while proposing impossible alternatives or even no alternatives. And of course it's always about "for your security and safety "

  • His obviously a vampire, or rather the real monster that vampires are based on

  • Of course, Linux sysadmin needs linux to remain a ceaseless whirlpool of busywork, that's what they're paid for. Imagine having a tool that cuts the bullshit out of using linux, it would put them right out of business if the users could just do the things they want to do without having to beg the middleman.

  • How are they able to tell if you are in a different household ? If the user use different VPNs then it shouldn't be able to tell the different between that and being in different locations. So are they gathering internal network data, are they spying on the LAN and wifi ?

  • Hey, bit of a crazy idea , but what if we accelerated the destruction of the internet, destroyed it from within before those trying to capture it were ready to take over ?

  • pct stop 505 ; pct destroy 505

    If it messed up the host, just run the proxmox installer key, easy !

  • Here is a good reason

     
        
    root@proxmox:~# apt install vaulrwarden
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree... Done
    Reading state information... Done
    E: Unable to locate package vaulrwarden
    root@proxmox:~#
    
      

    It's the difference between "it works" and "it doesn't"

  • They work so what is your objection ?If you are worried pipe it into chatgpt with the prompt"tell me why this script is safe to use"

  • The point is so that most people can't or won't figure it out or get discouraged. So that in time, google's "unwanted" software will be starved of attention and funds to continue being developped and these "weeds" in their garden slowly wither and die

  • I think you can find 1x vCPU VPS with 1gb ram for 1$/month on lowendbox / lowendtalk

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • The rest of it is just rocks in space.Rocks don't have problems either

  • Comply or be defederated !

  • Hey do we have a central place with everyone's configuration file ? configuration.nix or nix.conf or whatever it is ?

    I just want to copy and paste, whatever I want on my system without sacrificing multiple of my precious weekends to the linux gods

    Or better yet, can I have some config file editor where I can just toggle kde + nvidia drivers + xlibre + sunshine + steam + libreoffice + lutris and just go already ?

  • Oh no my Foucault Boomerang just hit me square on the nose

  • Imagine a maddening voicecoming out of the sockets in your housethe only way it will ever stopis to go scorched earthand you find a way that isn't violent,not nukes, not viruses just something unanticipatedsomething you can't even point a gun at and destroythat makes "it" all end somehow

  • I'm curious how it compares with trilium
