Didn’t look at the article but ya if you want to leverage SEDs then LUKS is the way to go.

JXL is based.

Right now I’m solving this by having two separate ingress controllers in one cluster - one for private stuff only available over a vpn, and one only available over public ips.

How’s this working out? What kinda alternatives are there with a single cluster?

When installing an encrypted Arch system, I couldn’t figure out how to change the keymap in GRUB stage 1, which asks for the passphrase and then decrypts /boot. I just entered my passphrase with the default en-us keymap without really knowing what characters it outputs.

The only use case for Appimages
If users want to carry applications around on a thumbdrive, or run on a fully immutable system like TAILS, Appimages may be needed. But this is the only target, and it is not a standard use case.

I guess I agree. This is precisely the case where I have ever used them. Namely to have a portable executable of my password manager on a stick together with a backup of the password database.

I had no idea they were being used elsewhere.

Robot vacuums. Some of them you can root and install the opensource Valetudo.

This reminds me of QT’s signal/slot system. I.e. instead of calling functions directly, you just emit a signal and then any number of functions may have the receiving slot enabled.

Lot’s of similar systems in other frameworks too I’m sure.

If markdown fulfills your formatting needs, then there’s no beating it in terms of focus and simplicity. Use whatever text editor you like. My recommendation would be Kate. It supports previewing the rendered document in side by side view.

I’m a shell user too, but as a programming language I would rate Bash utter garbage. Fine for little piping but for longer scripts I will be reaching for Haskell.

What’s so wrong with fstab?

Ay this is a funny meme and all but insulting the best linux documentation available was unnecessary

In tools like lsblk? Nope. They appear as directories, usually in the top-level subvolume, which typically isn’t mounted anywhere in the system.

Then you just create mount entries in /etc/fstab just like you would with partitions, this time just using the subvol= option as mentioned above. I don’t know if there are any installers that do this for you. Archwiki – as usual – has good documentation on this.

What are the actual differences between native encryption and dmcrypt? Like: Can it be booted? Does it leak more information about the fs? Is it faster?

I love that the Wikipedia article has a section on Printer flammability :D

Sorry I have no idea how to help you.
Just a well meaning thanks for an amusing picture :D

Now I’m interested in seeing that Win11 $upported CPU list. Anyone got the full link?

BTRFS filesystem, Snapper for taking periodic snapshots and snap-sync for saving one to an external drive every now and then.

BTRFS is what makes everything incremental.

Just a non-bootable stick with a copy of my KeePass database along with standalone executables for Linux and Windows. Just in case I lose my phone.

There’s also Brewtarget.
