You just have to add „All hail Tux“ to the end of every comment and it should go away in 2-3 business days

Tap for spoiler

All hail Tux

I heard if you say “Tux” three times while staring into a mirror your daily driver turns up dual booted.

I’m not sure if you’re being serious here or not, but I too have a tux tattoo. I knew at the time that it wasn’t a unique idea, but I’ve never met anyone else who has one. There must be dozens of us.

Do people also ask you if it’s Pingu or something from club penguin?

I have one, I’ve met a few others too 😄

Most ask why I’m into penguins, but many recognise it 😁

I totally need to manually add that Fedora repo, layer it, reboot just to see if it works on KDE Wayland

Exciting!

Shout out to my buddy who has been using an un-activated copy of Win10 for over 5 years despite being called out anytime he shares his screen.

And yes we told him how to but “It doesn’t bother him”

Where can I get the privacy nightmare AI application for Linux? I want it to take screenshots of my computer (in case I want to search it), never really use it, but store the data on my PC unencrypted, thus able to be hacked.

Someone made that, sort of. Unfortunately, the privacy nightmare is slightly reduced compared to the original one.

The security nightmare is reduced by a lot, thanks to Linux being a lot more safe system. Of course the occasional very old security issues get found, but those are only old if some swifty hacker found out and didn’t disclose it publicly, or had to wait for years to be solved.

I tried it to do some research recalls, like set it up for doing very specific things and I found it filled my hard drive pretty fast with screenshots. It’s probably a good idea if you can turn it on and off like this one and be careful, but it likely still needs polishing. That was when it was first out.

Python? This will require “specialized hardware” just due to the interpreter overhead taking continuous screenshots of everything you do and indexing/storing them. Why bother implementing something like this using an interpreted language??

Backups are important, especially passwords stored on images which is leagues more secure than plain text

If this was actually an open source app with strong privacy settings that you could opt into it might be useful.

When I first heard of the MS feature, my first thought was that there’s gotta be a more efficient way to do this than taking screen shots and analyzing the image. The window manager has all of that information plus more context (like knowing that these pixels are part of a non-standard window that uses transparency to act like a non-rectangular shape, while this thing that looks like a window is actually an image because the user was looking at someone else’s screenshot).

Even better would be integration with the applications themselves; they have even more contextual information than the window manager has.

If it required waiting for apps to provide this integration you would be waiting 10 years for it to mature. There would logically be some benefit to looking at the window before compositing + saving text from none visible windows and avoiding recapturing content which hadn’t changed.

Without RedHat, we wouldnt have Linux in the US governments, no SELinux, no Android security.

I think there is worse than companies selling Linux

I’ll thank them when they stop remaking perfectly fine utilities over minor issues then doing a shitty job with compatibility.

I generally agree with you, but wasn’t SELinux primarily the NSA and Tresys? I know it’s a primarily Red Hat thing now, but I think it would have existed in some form without them.

It is entirely possible I’m misinformed.

It was made by the NSA to secure the already existing RHEL systems. Without RHEL there wouldnt be SELinux, I guess.
