2TiB ram is good enough if you are running ZFS but just make sure it has ECC.

OK make a graph of swear words used by Linus and all others against Linus’s age. I’ve a theory.

There are only 2 types of people. Who hate systemd and those who don’t know what systemd is. \s

From technical point of view it is possible. eBPF already has almost everything needed for doing that. And I think it can be done with a simple LKM but if they want it included in the main tree I’m sure they’ll get some colorful email from Linus.

OK there are 2 completely opposite thoughts on shredding SSDs

1. All SSDs have a trim functionality so any unused data gets set to 0 automatically by the os or in some cases by ssd controller

2. Even if trim sets it to zero there is always some deviation from the original zero and a very very sophisticated attacker can find the actual data. And simply using shred or /dev/zero doesn’t help because SSD controller always writes to different physical location even for same file. And the only real way to ensure data can’t be recovered is to smash it

Pick and choose depending on your threat model. If you’re just selling it to someone or you know that no nation state actors are after your data then just do normal delete and then do the trim. If you think someone with capabilities is after your data and that they are willing to spend few hundred thousand dollars or even few million for whatever data is in your SSD then just microwave it and then smash with hammer. No need to shred or zero.

You might wanna rephrase that or some feds are gonna have a field day.

mutt or nothing

Thanks. This looks promising. I want few more minor features but I can easily add them. Thanks again.

Something similar to splitwise.

If you are a developer then no difference if you’re a scrum master then you need to gtfo

If you’re not going to give her sudo access then I’d say it’ll be really hard maybe even impossible to screw up. Also maybe setup a cron job that’ll do auto updates and if needed add in a check to make sure it isn’t uninstalling anything. Also how about immutable distro.

Heavily customized LFS

Even though there are really good open source app but I’ll not recommend this as Bluetooth itself is very very insecure

I know nftable is more secure and robust but sometimes I feel like iptables is the way.

They don’t need to guess the password. If you don’t have full disk encryption I can just run another os in live mode and mount your drive and read everything. And even change the password to your fedora, by changing the hash in shadow file

xargs

Switch to rolling distro, it will break so many things with each update you’ll learn stuff by fixing it. Also you can check https://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/

OK I was wrong it’s not default EXE it is the only option https://wiki.osdev.org/UEFI

UEFI executables are regular PE32 / PE32+ (Windows x32 / x64) images, with a specific subsystem. Every UEFI application is basically a windows EXE (or DLL) without symbol tables.
