This shit is literally everywhere because once it starts there are ZERO legal options for recourse. None. They've taken all options for recourse away already.

Lol. Lmao, even.
"Trans peeps" are ideologically captured and will do anything the powers that be tell them to.
All the governments and corporations have to do for them to put backdoors in software or nuke them to oblivion is to tell them that it would be racist or nazi not to, and they will do it gladly. They're doing it right now with the ID verification shit, calling everyone who opposes nazis/racists/radicals/buzzword. Even projects who have nothing to do with Systemd, because the ones running or maintaining those projects are troons, such as Alpine Linux for example.
They've shown over and over again that they don't care about software quality or integrity. That's precisely why corpos and organizations promote them and fund them.
>>108569131
One or more of them could easily be here and tell anon to do it. Why wouldn't they? If anything the fact that you got so defensive at my insinuation is suspicious itself.
>>108569141
That's for big organizations with ties to legal/governmental systems. You have projects like XLibre and Hyprland who don't care about catering to lunatics but solely about making good software and providing an alternative. That's what I'm talking about.

Stop pestering people about switching to Linux. Sure, the system is free, but the time you'll waste on it just isn't worth it.

Here’s what happened to me after installing CachyOS:


>No HDR support
>Raytracing disabled in games
>Can't disable the login password when using GNOME
>Can't run games over a cable to my Quest 3 – even after installing wivrn, Half-Life: Alyx (which I don't even own on Steam) still doesn't work.

On top of that, GNOME keeps showing me a window asking for financial support.

And sure, Claude and DeepSeek are supposedly meant for coding and writing commands, but they can't even figure out my Linux issues — they just give me broken commands.

I'm stuck with Windows.

Computer science education in Bolivia is in a worryingly underdeveloped state, and this point deserves to be emphasized. While in other countries the teaching of programming, robotics, and computational thinking has become an essential part of the school curriculum from an early age, in Bolivia a limited approach still predominates, focused on the basic use of office software and with little integration of computer science as a formative discipline. on this at UPEA

>CSlets are all about big O notation until they find out it doesn't apply to real life data.
It DOES apply to real life data, it just depends on how big your IRL "n" is. If you're working on small scale projects bounded to a local environment, then write whatever slop you want. But any kind of business or simulation software is quickly going to reach ns in the 100k-1M range if not higher, where time complexity greatly affects performance. I have had to personally go back and rewrite shit people wrote in linear time because it was causing real world systems to buckle. Whereas, if they had just used a hash table or binary search from the beginning, the system would have hummed along smoothly.

>Premature optimization is the root of all evil
is horse shit. POST-mature optimization is the root of all evil. It's very easy to build something performant if you are starting from scratch. But if you build a complex web of unoptimized shit, it's very tempting to keep kicking the can down the road. After a system has been in place for so long, most people working on it won't even fully know how it works under the hood. Systems can languish for years or decades because digging through and refactoring a mature system is a tall task.

That's not what I meant. Suppose you have an almost sorted list (could be billions of items), if you have a fixed number of unsorted elements (unrelated to N), then you can use bubble sort and you'll get the list sorted in O(n) time. If you use quicksort, you run into the worst case scenario and quicksort would sort in O(n^2) time.

The bigger issue is that people often don't get into the specifics of the data they are dealing with. Real data is not pure entropy, there are very often patterns in data.

If you see two large matrices you need to multiply, then there are O(n^p) algorithms with 3>= p > 2 that do a really good job for all types of matrices, but if your matrices have a lot of 0's in them, maybe you should look for specific algorithms. For instance if you happen to have a LU pair, then multiplication becomes much faster.
>>
>>108569265
Forgot to add, but algorithms like timsort and pdqsort are prime examples of what I was writing about.

We have the best theoretical algorithms, but they happen to do really bad on specific inputs, so these meta algorithms try to correct that by detecting worse-case scenario inputs. And also it turns out that these worse-case scenario aren't really rare, unless your data comes from pure entropy, which isn't usually the case.

I really like Debian's philosophy and as an OS itself and I've been thinking of switching to it to get the "most vanilla" experience Linux can offer, as you said.
But there's something that stops me: If I were to install Debian and then use PPAs and backports for newer kernels and drivers, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of Debian? Would it be better if I went with something else like Fedora/Arch, or even Debian Testing/SID?
>>
>>108566977
I can't speak to flatpak, it probably does ok.
But thing's like Debian's drivers will still be way out of date, the kernel will be way out of date, it will be slow comparatively to a more modern system running flatpaks.

I used to run Debian by pinning a bunch of packages from sid that mattered for performance but it was such a pain in the ass I just fucking run sid these days and its breakage is less than the multi release system.

Yes but no more so than having a password manager and/or 2FA credential vault that you access through the device as well. If your device is compromised and you access your password manager/2FA hive from it then you're just as fucked, which is not far enough afield to discredit passkeys specifically.

If you count your phone or computer as a device you don't own (which could reasonably be argued for).
>>
>>108569232
Well certainly passwords have a lot more ways to do security wrong. 2FA is a good band aid for the potential insecurities of straight password authentication (since you can't see exactly what the remote party is using to keep your password confidential and/or obfuscated) but passwordless does seem to be the way forward in an era where "something you know" just feels incredibly weak.

>>108568318 (which I also posted) feels like the only truly safe "something you know" left (since the characters you're typing are never the same twice, the only thing you know is the physical placement of the characters you're typing on your screen).
