I only enter one password for LUKS and have kde autologin

What is Linux protecting us from by using passwords?

I’d argue: from yourself.

On windows I often spam clicked through dialogues and popups and without thinking got malware or some other unwanted outcome.

On linux, when asked for a password it takes effort to type, so I have a moment of my lazy brain resisting and asking “do we really need to do that” and it makes the action more conscious and responsible. I cought myself one step from fucking something up multiple times this way.

I had some viruses and malware on windows, just like you. But I never had them on linux in mt 15 years of daily driving it.

Thats fine until it isn’t.

Remember all the small folk people the government or other powerfull institutions fucked over in unjust ways for a wide range of reasons (sometimes down to personal grudges other times completely random)?

Yeah, it would be super easy to put some incriminating files on your computers and lock you up for years. Your grandma would be really sad.

Also on linux you can set everything to passwordless in polkit/sudoers or a blank password - it doesn’t actually force you and I’ve done that where it made sense (not on a PERSONAL computer)

it always baffles me when people set up disk encryption with the TPM instead of a password

and that kids is why you always do an off service archive

(first time I heard of this github repo and I’d love to use it, but now it’s gone)

The Matchbox window manager is normally a good start for this sort of project.

It displays a single application at a time full screen.

I had much more trouble with keeping my debian/ubuntu installs running for years back in the days. And it was always out of date. Whenever there was a bug, I would search for it, see that it was already fixed upstream and be frustrated that I’d only get that fix in half a year. And then after half a year, dist-upgrade borked my whole install and I had to reinstall from scratch. I remember all the lost weekends of fiddling with it and the stress from needing my pc in working order for my job.

With arch, I’ve broken it a couple times in the first 2 months, while doing my ideal setup. But now I have been on the same install for about 10 years. It survived being cloned to multiple new computers and laptops and just keeps updating and working. Been using it professionally of course. Rarely do I have to do a minor fix. 2024 was kind of bad iirc, there were 3-4 manual interventions I had to do. It took probably 8 hours of maintenance work in total for that year. 2025 was mostly super smooth sailing, iirc I had to do 1 or at most 2 small fixes that took less than 20minutes each.

But I must say, I’ve set it up in a very deliberate and failsafe way. I can’t guarantee the same result if you do anything different from my setup - software choise and process wise. And I’ve seen pretty bad fuckups on the support forums again and again from other people that do their own approach with arch.

I guess thats the power of it. It can be molded into very different forms. With Ubuntu you just get spoonfed what canonical cooks for their corpo overlords.

mainstream

is the keyword here. Mainstream is really big.

They come for the lions share first. You do nothing because you think you’re unaffected. Then later they will come for you. And nobody will do anything for you either.

Of course, professional criminals like yourself (sarcasm) will find a way to escape the law. But I doubt it’s nice to live on the edge of society like that anyway.

How is it a map and not a list?

Like, are the containers related somehow?

If you just want to know whats running, there are a ton of docker autoexplore dashboard out there. But I don’t think they output a map, just a list.

Start by searching for how to selfhost a photo storage backup. There are multiple ways to do it and the decision depends on your circumstances and preferences, which only you know.

essentially using it as a giant, dynamic maze of proxies, where all your traffic is arguably better encrypted than via Tor.

from https://geti2p.net/en/about/intro :

Outproxies to the Internet are run by volunteers, and are centralized services. The privacy benefits from participating in the the I2P network come from remaining in the network and not accessing the internet. Tor Browser or a trusted VPN are better options for browsing the Internet privately.

You can use a raspberry pi with a GSM HAT

here is a super in depth blog that I used for reference when implementing this. https://projects-raspberry.com/call-text-using-raspberry-pi-gsm-module/

I have a very different GSM module that goes directly on the pi.

Yoy won’t find your target audience here on lemmy.

Instead you should look for companies that have open job/freelancer positions for maintaining legacy java code and pitch your project to them.

Go to the small local library, they usually have free wifi, sometimes without registration and if you’re lucky they don’t filter any traffic.

There is also a map of open wifi hotspots online which work without registration also, but I’m too lazy to dig out the link.

Ask online for somebody to share their VPN. Many subscriptions explicitly allow inviting friends and family and allow multiple simultaneous connections.

If you are interested in alternatives, there is frp https://github.com/fatedier/frp

You say:

Groovy is not 100% identical

Then you say:

JPlus aims to keep Java syntax almost intact

Which implies that it is not 100% identical either.

So why do you apply that same argument against one but not the other? Seems like marketing bs.

Overall though, for the level of quality they’ve managed to put on a FOSS tool I’m happy to grant them a few rough patches in the doc.

100% agree. It’s such a good game engine!

The godot docs have their bad parts though. For example when it comes to godot shaders, at the time when I tried it, the docs were out of date. The doc listed some tokens that didn’t exist anymore and others where the functionality I observed differed from what the doc said and sometimes the doc didn’t document anything meaningful at all like “TIME - this is the time” without explaining the unit, format or interval or anything.

i moved to sftpGO instead and am quite happy
