A so-called “meta distribution”, allows you to mix and match packages from some other distros. Kinda like distrobox, but older (AFAIK) and low level-er.

That said, I didn’t find it exactly useful a few years ago, since pretty much everything i needed was in the aur or the official repos (should be better if the base was smth like Ubuntu)

Other inits cut out udev and logind and run away giggling into the sunset, obviously

Just shove wondows in a VM or something

You’re probably looking for these 2

They’re more secure (albeit in many wsys security through obscurity) than private, although the privacy aspect is probably among the best you can get by default as far as I can tell. On the other hand, if you’re willing to do some relatively simple steps and buy specific hardware, you can achieve better privacy and security on both mobile (graphene) and desktop (qubes) devices.

I personally dislike them for building unrepareable crap, tho.

I suspect those may depend on choosing a particular response to some of the previous questions

CPUs are also somewhat choked. I had to use throttled to make mine run above 2.4 GHz under load. (You need HWP_MODE and possibly Disable_BDPROCHOT, if anyone’s interested).

But other than that, waaaay better compared to …70 laptops, and some models seem to beat maxed out t440p-s. Also quicksync massively speeds up video decoding/encoding, so I’m overall happy with mine so far.

Phew, count me relieved. The keyboard on that clone was pretty linear as far as I can remember with no variation in force applied whatsoever

Although, it’s possible to bloat it unknowingly: networkmanager, for example, depends on a few VPNs noone would ever need, and one of them depends on webkitgtk, so you actually have to mkForce modules to include only the necessary stuff. Not like that’s a huge issue, but I wasn’t amused when I saw “building webkitgtk” while cross-compiling 😆

There’s kmscon, tho.

Wannabe crapple being wannabe crapple.

Well, the link doesn’t load for me, so if that’s smth related to python and not a justification of the behavior from math’s pov, I know that’s expected. Hence,

because of the order of operations

But just as well is “1” + 2.

Yeah, very well may be. LSPs always slow down opening big files, so I usually inspect those with an empty/different config

And how’s that different from js’s "1" + 2? One can always convert a number to string, and only sometimes – a string to a number, so it’s pretty logical to go with the former.

4.2 megs on one line? Vim probably can handle it fine, although syntax won’t be highlighted past a certain point

Well, C has implicit casts, and it’s not that weird (although results in some interesting bugs in certain circumstances). Python is also funny from time to time, albeit due to different reasons (e.g. -5**2 is apparently -25 because of the order of operations)

Hmm, seems like it’d be interesting to automate :D

I’m wondering if something interesting will fall off the truck this time :D

Context: before that blogpost, cellebrite claimed they can “hack” signal (or they were kinda closer to the truth, and that was media talking abt hacks without reading stuff)

Idk how this thingy on the screenshot works 🤷
