Bro, just use AI, bro, you don’t need developers, bro, also skip the testing, bro, who is going to hack your SaaS, bro

Yikes… One would expect stability and reliability from main distros, it’s funny to me that Linux Mint is the thing you recommend your family to try because Fedora and Ubuntu, formerly popular distros, went to shit.

I do think it’s important that there is a switch to a newer language like Rust away from C eventually.

The problem is you can’t come in swinging to be let into the party, there are processes and tests to be done.

Oh no, now there is a security audit and the pdf generated is insecure, the unpaid developer that has not logged in since 2015 has to fix this ASAP

“Who fast-tracked this shit?” -me

“It’s a small change, should be safe, we will test it in production” -also me

Check your journald and/or make your script log it’s actions.

Script > ~/script.log

According to the Arch Wiki you need to place the .desktop file in:

~/.config/autostart/*****.desktop

You also need to add the following line to the .desktop file:

X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true

But that’s probably the hard way to do it, I think the settings panel should also have a Startup Application tab.

What are you using as a Desktop Environment? Certain with DEs the Autostart programs need to be added in the config file.

I mean they don’t understand SW, Licenses and Git. It’s all out there now…

Oh shit, what’s your PayPal?

Anyone who reads this comment owes me $1,000,000 USD and a kiss

You can install shit in Windows too, it is exactly the same case when grandma installs too many toolbars in Internet Explorer 6. No one is warning you there that you might be installing malware.

What I mean is that there are already curated repositories for each distro that can be accessed easily by the package manager. If you go outside of your package manager and repos, gloves are off, you better know what you are doing.

Regarding custom ROMs, since you brought it up and being a custom ROM enthusiast, there are still a lot of complaints, nastiness and pressure from the users similar to this. Installing a ROM has definitely a higher knowledge barrier and that makes you aware of the risks, also you will brick your phone before you are able to install a ROM… if you don’t know what you are doing.

Finally, the developer here in this very lemmy post mentions that the OP of that bug report was working with them in order to solve the issue. The one on the screenshot was just a random dude unnecessarily being rude. Free software is usually delivered as is with no warranties, specifically small projects and libraries.

Thanks for coming to my TED.talk

There is always a risk using libraries from others. If you install something without knowing what you are doing and without considering the risks, you should not be installing it.

Yes, but isn’t the 40Mbps a bottleneck? If I have 3 devices with Netflix all at 4k (which supposedly uses 25Mbps) while gaming, won’t the latency be affected due to the traffic on the line?.

Why do you need to connect over your Landlord’s router, for privacy I would recommend using a VPN but I digress.

Anyway, you can just measure your speed/latency to any near server. I would just Ookla’s speed test or any game that has that functionality.

40Mbps is not really much so unless the other devices are using the internet connection constantly you are at no risk. You could also limit other devices speed or set QoS so your PC or console has priority.

This is based on my empirical knowledge, so if anyone can correct me please do so.
