A DE has little to do with this, it’s a driver, it gets loaded when you plug in a compatible device, there’s no interaction. This should have been disabled 2 years ago when the gaping security holes were found, and actually Greg had attempted to have it disabled in 2022 but it kept getting pushed back.
I wish people would remember that after 8 years of explaining.
Well there’s no shortage of those, and they’re unusually cheaper too (unless they’re specced out). I prefer a thin silent one myself, so I welcome this innovation.
Podman not because of security but because of quadlets (systemd integration). Makes setting up and managing container services a breeze.
Just recently I had a tech store guy gently but repeatedly insist to me that a certain USB cable was a USB 3 cable because it was type C on both ends. I didn’t wanna argue with him, but the box clearly said “480 Mbit”, so it was just a type C charging cable.
Of course the box designers were hoping you’d make that mistake so they didn’t write USB 2 on there, just the speed. And most boxes won’t even have that, you’ll just have to buy it and see.
But I mean if someone who spent their whole life fixing computers can get something that basic wrong, then it’s really a hopeless situation for anyone who isn’t techy.
And of course once it’s out of the box it’s anyone’s guess what it is. It’s a real mess for sure.
The earlier parts of this lecture by Irving Finkel talk about what happened when they first translated the more original flood story from stone tablets in 1872. And the rest of the lecture is a nice story about an adventure, so I can only recommend watching the whole thing.
Shouldn’t Poland be light blue, like the stripes in Belarus? Doesn’t seem to match the rest of the green areas.
