What is wrong with the commenters on Phoronix? There seem to be a bunch of old dudes who can't accept that C is unsafe and no amount of "skill" will prevent it from being unsafe. They look at 3 decades of unsafe C with thousands of CVEs and still think it's a skill issue.
Meaning, you’d know it because every time you want to view the encrypted file you’d be prompted for that key (password) to continue.
Not necessarily. If you had a separate password to decrypt private images, you'd just have to enter it once at login or upon viewing the first private, encrypted photo.
That case makes sense does make sense. I'm concerned about abuse however. Imagine if you worked for a game company as a dev, put your profile on the fediverse and angry idiots started sending you complaints, spam, or worse. That would drive people away.
On LinkedIn there's some semblance of professionalism in messages (yes I know of the crazies on LinkedIn). Making profiles publicly available to multiple servers will require proper guardrails to prevent abuse and spam.
Could this be used for filesystems? I know little about them but I remember NTFA requires defragmentation to keep performance and ext4 hasn't ever required that in my experience. No idea about BTRFS, XFS, and others. My inkling is that it would be quite useful, but maybe somebody else could make a more educated guess.
If I'm not mistaken, everything in nix uses bash. So you should be able to use trap to catch the EXIT signal and execute a cleanup script. Here's a guide
That was too long. It takes too long to get to the point. What are the main points? "Enshittification"? If that's the main point, then I don't think the prediction is correct. People can take a lot of shit as long as they believe.
I mean, you don't need a markup file. Qt, Gtk, and others don't require a markup file, but it's optional. And neither generate "glue". They load the markup, render it, and you can reference the elements by ID. Netbeans allowed (allows? I do think it's dead), a WYSIWYG editor for Java interfaces and it straight up generates Java with comments. You can modify the Java and as long as the comments stay put, it can still load the Java - by far the best GUI editing experience I've ever had.
Rust has stuff like makepad that has a DSL using proc macros, slint also has a DSL that is loaded but also allows defining new components in rust that can be used in the DSL.
So no, not everything is as shit as in Microsoft's C++.
In the time that I was forced to use it, an entire team of Microsoft engineers could not get a Linux version working. It's a bloody website wrapped in a browser and they could not get it to work. A single dude made a linux package that just worked until Microshits messed that up right on time for their "official linux release", which (surprise surprise) still refused to work completely.
Linux users kept having trouble sharing screens, sharing files, couldn't add backgrounds to video calls, and a bunch of other stuff. For a while I thought it was just Linux users, but Mac users were also having trouble (this was before the M1s came along). Mac users had cameras that failed, sometimes couldn't see anybody else's video (just black), were inaudible and had to reconnect, and more issues.
I have friends who have to use office 265 and the amount of issues they run into is just phenomenal. Passwords have to be changed semi-frequently (every quarter or something) and sometimes they don't sync across the entire system. OneDrive has issues with symlinks (or whatever windows calls them) - either it's a Microshit problem or a user problem, I can't tell, but moving a symlink can sometimes move all the data too.
Not all the products seem to be properly connected like events created in calendars might not create team links despite configured to do so and only add a team link to the meeting when created within the desktop app (a bug known for a few years now). There have also been problems with OneDrive and SharePoint with access rights not being the same, some files missing (hidden or straight up not synced), and a bunch of other things.
I've had friends on "workation" walk into my room asking if I could help them with "this microsoft issue" and tell them to straight up ask their support, because I left that turdball of an ecosystem long ago.Boy am I glad I did.
Would be great if Europe finally decided to get off of Microsoft and move to self-hosted or EU-hosted, and EU-owned companies and datacenters that use opensource software. It's about time an entire continent stopped sucking on the teet of another and letting in parasites.
