Thanks, I had found this once before but couldn't remember the name of it and have been looking ever since. Sounds like it's Socialist for land, but free-market for everything else. Who knows whether that's good or not, but

I've never understood all the love and excitement and attention that GNOME has gotten ever since Canonical got behind it and dropped Unity. All the cheerleading over what seem like really basic fixes that haven't been a problem o

Ooh, thanks! I hadn't ever heard of that, and was for some reason assuming "Hurd" kernel. I'll give it a try.

I'm skeptical since you spelled it "herd" (or maybe auto-correct strikes again.) But yeah, keeping your system free from the systemd cancer has always been a good idea.

Agreed - I should clarify that my Gnome gripes are mainly about how they failed to "get it right" with Gnome3. I don't really have any specific criticism of the old Gnome2 - Both it and KDE were too heavy for me in those day

(I'm not the one who downvoted you, so have an upvote, but) I think they renamed their reference implementation to "Weston" to differentiate it from the Wayland spec/interface. Gnome implements its own, as does KDE, as

(I'm not denying that possibility, and I'm only one datapoint, but) In practice I have only ever seen one DE (GNOME) with these "crash the world" stability bugs, and they also happen on X, which makes me think the proble

Yes! I've been using Sway for years and it's amazing! Very underrated.

And a "sanity-effective" alternative to Windows - I've found that running their officially-supported container has been a much better experience.

"The ioXt Mobile Application Profile [...] leverages existing standards and principles set forth by OWASP MASVS" In a way DoD (STIGs), NIST, Mitre, SANS, OWASP are all different takes on the same general idea.

Upvote for the interesting idea (fellow PinePhone user), but see my other comment - The RockPro64 (also from Pine64) is probably a better fit since it's a SBC with PCIe and thus the ability to plug in NVMe which the OP was asking for.

I've never been very moved by the pi line for "non-maker" "server-type" stuff. Personally, I run a 4GB RockPro64 [0] in the NAS case [1]. Add a heatsink [2] and a beefier 5A power supply [3] just in case I ever want

You say "low-trust society" like it's a bad thing. And it probably is, at least the interpersonal trust that your reference cites. But it also makes the point that trust in government is much lower, which is much more deser

This is not the greatest answer, but one anecdote: I am looking at it as an alternative to MS SSIS for moving batches of data around between databases.

There is a specific term relevant to this, which is applicable to many problems of misaligned risk/incentive, governmental and otherwise: "Moral Hazard"
