Same. It sucks that most banks wouldn’t jump on this train :(
What a stupid article. It’s like saying “stop using electric vehicles because you can’t use gas stations”. I don’t understand why he’s so adamant about this? It’s not like Wayland had about 20 years of extra time to develop like X11. People keep working on it, and it takes time to polish things.
If I understand correctly, this would just provide the binary for paru without really making it accessible to the user, no?
In the end, I just decided to copy all my dotfiles to /home/user and running an additional script after reboot. For some reason, if you try to arch-chroot and install it tries to build everything as root (even after providing “-u user” to arch-chroot).
Why is that a problem?
I’ve looked into this before, and it really depends on the type of RFID they use. Older versions have been cracked, but newer ones can’t be copied over (easily or at all).
If your company is serious about security, you will not be able to put the content of the card on your phone. What newer, more secure versions of RFID do is receive a code from the reader system, replies to it internally, and then sends back the answer. Even if you try to copy this over, you will not be able to open the doors of your facility.
I think the first step should be to use one of these apps that can read RFID and see what protocol your card uses. If it’s an unsecure one (i.e., only pushes out a code and checks it in their database that it’s yours), you could probably try to copy it over. However, if it’s not, you could also just dissolve the card with some acetone and place the resulting wires in your phone’s case, near the bottom. Like that, it shouldn’t interfere with your phone’s NFC, as that one is usually next to the top area of your phone.
Framework laptops are getting better. Not Apple levels good, but it certainly beats them in average longevity.
The only hope with Apple is having the EU step in again to stop this kind of bullcrap.
You can do it here too! Just tag @remindme@mstdn.social

Are you sure about them being removed from the platform? I purchased GTA: San Andreas before the shitty remaster came out, and I can still download it. It is no longer available/purchasable, but I still “own” it. Do you have a better example, as I haven’t really heard of this happening before?
But yeah, all the other points you mention are valid. GOG is better in this regard, but their platform is nowhere near the level of Steam in terms of user experience.
That’s good to know! The format overall was nice. They got a few questions wrong, but the users seem to provide the correct answers in the discussion.
I’d pay, but I’m not really in a position to do it right now. Also, I can’t justify doing it for only a single exam, when the price for a month is 40$, and I only need it for one day haha.
I’d probably fall into the Tech Paranoid if it weren’t for gaming. I’m honestly rooting for Steam to jumpstart the Linux gaming ecosystem even more.
I also recommend Librewolf. It’s very good at what it does. They also have a list of recommended addons to enhance your privacy.
It’s amazing that Linux gaming is becoming a thing that’s better sometimes than Windows gaming (minus the getting banned part in some games). I also like that AMD is making some big pushes on open source drivers, plus their ROCm open-source alternative to CUDA.
This is a great time for Linux users! :)
