Pros:
>Strong sandboxing/isolation improves security.
>Widely supported across major distros (especially Fedora, GNOME-based distros).
>Uses Portals apps can request access to files, devices, etc. in a controlled way.
>Good integration with desktop environments.
>Flathub is a central, well-maintained app store with lots of apps.
>Auto-updates supported.

Cons:
>Flatseal has the potential to change the permissions of other flatpaks at will. Essentially, a flatpak with the ability to change the permissions of other flatpaks. It is rendered to be "Potentially Unsafe" with "Arbitrary Permissions" with access to "User Data" subfolder flatpak/overrides, Can read and write all data in the directory" and "Arbitrary Permissions, Can acquire arbitrary permissions".
>Larger disk space usage (apps bundle runtimes + libraries).
>Slower startup compared to native apps (sandbox overhead).
>Strong desktop focus not ideal for CLI/server software.
>Relies heavily on Flathub (centralization concern).

What I'm saying is that Flatpaks can't have it even if you allow it.
The VSCode snap will be able to access anything (as long as you have the root password ofc).

>>106485049
Well, I'm saying you're wrong because my dev machine uses the flatpak version of VSCode and I have access to my system libraries and binaries.

>>106474039
Flatpak is gay because it can't install programs offline. If you download a .flatpak file you won't be able to do anything with it without connecting to their servers.

>libraries and binaries
I'm talking about text files.
Also, you shouldn't need to do any modifications to get those in the first place. Just use the Snap.

what I mean is, will the internet just werk after I switch over (I'm not at home rn so can't test)?

>>
>>106484373
It depends entirely on your ISP.

Generally though if you've got a modem that gives you bridge mode you can just hook up your router and it'll just work, and OpenWRT should be the same.

It might require you to set up a wireless network BSSID/password, i personally don't use openwrt so I don't know if it will generate these for you, or if you have to manually set it.

Either way though you're talking about less than 5 minutes to set up and configure basic settings for wifi.

Yes really. I'd live an hour away in a completely different metropolitan area and region and still see 0 ms in CS2. Third world infrastructure might have a bunch of routing equipment adding latency, but in a real country the traffic isn't being routed through every town between you and the destination. It will just go straight past them because there's a dedicated line for those two destinations, except for the last few hundred meters.

>>106481579
That's terrible. 2-3 ms is almost enough to reach another country across the baltic sea. 4 ms to Finland.

Well it's the boomers of Linux that also brought us Wayland. They're just stuck in their ways.

You could say the same in reverse. I will keep using Plasma Wayland until Xorg/Xlibre stops being shit.

We shouldn't pretend that either Xorg/X11 or Wayland is perfect, neither of them are but at least Wayland is slowly getting fixes and improvements to it.

If the XLibre people want something modern that normal people will want to use then they've got a lot of catching up to do.

I want to make some small command line utils, similar to ls, cat, and such. I'm thinking of using C# or Kotlin. Am I going to get screwed by runtime startup speed? I know the .net runtime stays loaded in the background after the first use, so it wouldn't be a massive issue for consecutive commands.

There's no valid usecase for containers, your usecase is solved by having a separate user configured for it. Which is really no different from separate user that people setup for this thing they call their job.

Why not use AOT? Both support it just fine if startup is such a huge concern (it shouldn't be)? You also get to build single file binaries with that.
>I know the .net runtime stays loaded in the background after the first use
What? It doesn't do that.

>boot an official upstream image without nonguix and during the install make it use the nonguix channel for installation, without downloading a prepared image
Yeah, if your PC can boot with the upstream image, you just need to add the nonguix channel to
~/.config/guix/channels.scm
and run
guix pull
. But, I think the upstream guix image uses tmpfs as /, so you'll need a considerable amount of RAM (>8 GB) to do this successfully.

Aah I see haven't thought of that.
Is it possible to just specify another temporary storage for guix pull to use as a buffer or something? Like an external disk for example?

Guess the requirement goes up more when it clogs up tmpfs ram and in addition tries to compile the linux kernel

Anyway thanks friend, that already helped.

>>106484555
Running everything locally has always been the most efficient way to do anything, but that takes away power and control from companies. The only reason why everything moved to data centers is because they want to have complete control over their users and charge them rent just to use their own devices they already paid for.

- 26 platforms blacked out; only TikTok & Viber complied
Gov’t stance on VPNs:
- Official decree labels VPNs “unregistered tunnels” and “cyberthreats”
- State media warns: using VPN is unsafe, illegal, may lead to fines or arrest
Why it matters:
1. Freedom of speech wiped out for 30M Nepalis
2. Creators & small businesses lose income overnight
3. People forced to VPN risk legal trouble on top of surveillance
