I wonder how this would make Hyprland compare to Pinnacle or Awesome? So far I haven't found anything better than Awesome for crafting a bespoke desktop experience.

It is true. The do surface level protections, but have nothing to really lock down a system. What do they provide that can restrict an attacker who managed to compromise a remote service that wasn't using pledge or unveil? On other OS&

Well, that's where OpenBSD falls short, it lacks facilities to really enforce defense in depth - even NetBSD has some better features in this regard.

Pretty sure you're familiar with their claims.

by JCattheATM 2mo ago
No one is claiming that, they are at least setting a foundation for that to be possible though.

It's not too late to start now, similar to how Linux did a few years back.

I know a lot of Russians, but all of them left and are critical. Can't say I know any Russians in Rusia, but papers such as Meduza report on and give interviews with them frequently.

I'm in my 40s, wasn't coding in the 70s. Horrible use of code is a different thing from removing something entirely, though. Just that almost every language removed goto as a response is kind of amazing to me.

I honestly never got why in college his opinions were just taken as mandates. I never bough into the "goto considered harmful" argument, for example.

It's just silliness. Judge the code on the merit of the code, not deciding to reject it if you learn it was constructed with the aid of AI.

That's what I have in my setup, six titlebar buttons: send to other screen, sticky among workspaces and always on top in addition to the base 3. Can't imagine ever using something that gives me less control again.

Agreed. It beats Arch and Void hands down IMO when I was looking for a no fuss simple and minimalist yet up to date and secure system after Slackware lost its way.

Apple's ASLR was incomplete and basically trash for a long time, it didn't get proper ASLR until much later.
