I'm been trying to get a server with WordPress 1.0 running, using both Docker and a VM with Debian Sarge installed.

Either I'm retardedly missing something obvious, or Docker doesn't play well with an "external" MySQL database. Either that or it has something to do with how the host mysql service isn't actually running since that would get in the way of the container's service.

Right now, once I go through the initial config, the site only shows a blank page everywhere.

I have a gut feeling that modern MySQL might not play well with such an old WordPress version anyhow.

Maybe I'm better off just sticking with a full Sarge VM for this, especially since I finally got that working

Vulnerabilities ARE a metric.
Compare your inferior ass Debian to my WHITE CHAD'S OS OF CHOICE, OPENBSD.
pales in comparison.

I find genuinely bizarre how there's people who use Gnome over KDE, I just can't understand why someone would do that. Who exactly are they targeting? MacOS refugees? People who never used a computer before? I don't get it, it has considerably less tools and meaningfully worse ease of use when compared to Windows or even (allah forgive me) MacOS. It's not even a tablet os because it'd probably suck at it too, they'd probably end up removing notifications and ask what's their usecase like they did with the tray icons.

Get external audits and security certification done if you truly care about this shit. Picking the thing with the lowest number won't help you.

>>102481946

It's not root, it's a wrapper that runs as root before dropping privileges. Nowadays we have elogind which doesn't require this wrapper.

>Do you see the problem with that?
Yes, this is not a problem OpenBSD has though considering it is older than Linux and has countless eyes on it, daily.
>Get external audits and security certification done if you truly care about this shit.
I test my own shit too, yes; and OpenBSD has consistently found itself to be the most secure.

Well. Technically, LibertyBSD did, but that distribution is fucking dead so who cares.

OpenBSD was the runner up.

>Picking the thing with the lowest number won't help you.
No, and I didn't advocate that; I advocated using the vulnerability tracker as a metric to aid in judgment, not for picking.

>>102481965

Also suid is not on by default either. If it is it's because your profile set it that way or your own explicit configuration set it that way.

That's the same thing, retard.

It's much better for you to advocate testing your shit like you have done here and ignore CVEs altogether. It matters less so that there's a vulnerability and more so how quickly it was addressed. Look at things like Spectre and Meltdown where OpenBSD wasn't even notified in advance and didn't have proper patches as quickly as Windows and Linux did.

>>102482019
The problem was using Xorg. I too wish it didn't exist.

>>102482042
>That's the same thing, retard.
No it literally isn't.
Using one metric in a mix of other metrics to make a decision is, quite literally, by definition, not the same thing as making a decision solely based on one metric.
>It's much better for you to advocate testing your shit like you have done here and ignore CVEs altogether.
Normies won't do that, and I really don't give enough of a fuck to explain my anecdotal experience with these systems to them. It's best to just show them the CVEs so they can read it themselves and if they throw a fit about it, they can fuck off. Really not my job to prevent retards from installing a out of date, insecure Linux distribution instead of something more locked down by nature, like Qubes.
>It matters less so that there's a vulnerability and more so how quickly it was addressed. Look at things like Spectre and Meltdown where OpenBSD wasn't even notified in advance and didn't have proper patches as quickly as Windows and Linux did.
I'm not talking hardware vulnerabilities. I'm talking software vulnerabilities, bad code.
Hardware vulnerabilities are definitely a tough one for OpenBSD, I will admit that; because our hardware support is very bad in general.

That's why I use old hardware that didn't even have to worry about Spectre.

That's why Spectre is a fucking joke, because new hardware is a fucking joke and if you bought new hardware it's kinda your fault.

Compare the code quality and security of the C code in the Linux kernel vs. that of OpenBSD's kernel; insane difference. And LibreSSL? SO MUCH better than OpenSSL.

I'd agree with your conclusion on hardware here but people still need hardware support and that has to be backed up by software support too.

It's not enough to say everyone should be using aging processors from eons ago (people are in an AI arms race and that requires power, lots of it, there are no winners here…) or everyone should throw their processor in the trash immediately. As stupid as it sounds you have to provide software mitigations for broken hardware.

I see what you're saying and while I do agree, OpenBSD still does get there in the end; it just takes them a minute. We have Spectre and Meltdown stuff these days of course, I could upgrade if I wanted to but I still don't because I don't trust modern pozzware.

However, on the flip side, that extra time it takes for the OpenBSD devs to fix those vulnerabilities are time that could be spent cracking systems.

Like i said, security for hardware vulnerabilities in OpenBSD really isnt great because we dont have great access to hardware in the first place;

but when i originally mentioned this topic, I was just referring to vulnerabilities in Debian itself; not hardware vulnerabilities that can affect Debian when installed on certain machines.

I mean just straight up, bad code in Debian vs. bad code in OpenBSD.

A lot of the security vulnerabilities in the Debian system stem from Apt/Dpkg being a poorly written piece of shit. I can name several instances of people being attacked through Apt/Dpkg.
https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2022-1664/
here's a directory traversal exploit in DPKG from two years ago that still hasn't been fixed.

I have never heard of such problems being so frequent, outside of Debian.

OpenBSD's base system is so much more sturdy, stable, rock solid, and secure than Debian's base system.

It's such an insane difference, man. Debian is fucking PATHETIC.

>>102482205
Vulnerabilities in APT/DPKG aren't really an issue in practice unless you stray from your distros repositories.

I think the most egregious thing is probably Apt still using plain HTTP repositories by default but if they change that they break my DNS spoofing to my local mirror so it's a trade-off. I know for a fact I'm not the only one that points deb.debian.org at their own local mirror, especially in big organisations, etc.

>>102482249
>Vulnerabilities in APT/DPKG aren't really an issue in practice unless you stray from your distros repositories.
But I've had to do this on every single Debian distro I've used. The Debian repositories are sadly barren, at least of the things I was looking for, and Ubuntu is no better.

Can't even get fucking WoeUSB-NG on Ubuntu without tacking on a broken PPA that isnt even functioning currently.

so yeah, youll be straying from your distro repositories quite a bit unfortunately.

You dont need adobe as a professional, either. Affinity Photo has been mopping the floor with photoshop lately, even Apple advertises it on their website as the premiere photo editor on Macs.

Affinity is currently eyeballing a linux port.

This is exactly what happened to Premiere; killed by Davinci Resolve for being:

1 - genuinely better
2 - a one-time perpetual license
3 - affordable
4 - and having better platform support

Adobe will fucking die if they don't change their ways.

I've tried xfce4-mousepad and gnome text editor, and both seem to change all timestamps when I save a file. It's not that big of a deal but I would like to keep the creation date for archive purposes.

>>102482666
forgot to add I'm using gnome

>>102482666
Are they recreating the file each time (I know some text editors work that way where they work with a buffer and then write out the file from scratch each time again so they can move the new file over the old file in an immutable fashion thus helping to prevent corruption, etc)?

>>102482704
seems to be the case. Is this an intended feature of these text editors? Is there a way to disable it or is it built-in?

>>102482704
Atomic was the word I was looking for not immutable. Basically if the editor is recreating the file and do an atomic move then the creation timestamp is going to change each time they do that and there's no way around it.

You should file a bug against the editor because they're not properly restoring them.

>>102482704
>>102482792
>>102482794
Ok so I just downloaded geany to see if it would preserve the created timestamp, but it too changes it. This has to be something with gnome there's no way that three editors are bugged right?

this is a job for emacs

>>102483100
I forgot terminal text editors exist lol. I edited a file with vi and the created/birth time was preserved! What the fuck... so all GUI based text editors just create new files instead of simply updating/modifying them now? ok I guess... time to learn emacs

Does anyone know what happened to the installgentoo wiki?

Fedora desu

So how does running a distro without systemd affect the experience, do you run into trouble with any packages?

>>102483391
It boots quicker
It's easier to troubleshoot issues (hint: it's not your init system)

Beyond that most packages don't care. Unless something uses Systemd specific functionality (which is often provided by elogind if you're using that) then there's no trouble to run into.

>>102483448
I see, thx

>>102483391
I have gotten into trouble with packages in the past actually, yeah.
Bitwig Studio wont run without it.
GNOME used to be the same way until like 2019 or smth like that.

its faster but ultimately not worth the hassle if you use proprietary programs, once you realize that systemd hate is really stupid.

if i werent using proprietary programs that needed it, i would switch away from systemd too; but i dont hate it by any means, its *fine*. not great, but *fine*. nothing worth "hating", honestly.

openrc is much better, though.

>>102483537
>Bitwig Studio wont run without it.
How did they manage that? Are they linking against libsystemd? Proprietary software shouldn't do that, use dlopen if you really want to add Systemd functionality to your software and test that everything loaded correctly and the symbols you need are properly provided. This is the same strategy Firefox uses to load the systems ffmpeg.

can you install gentoo completely over ssh?

>>102483615
Do you mean like on a VPS system? You can if you're extremely careful.

For reasons that are hard to explain, I'm trying to use a docker container with an old-ass version of PHP and MySQL, both within the same service.

Thing is, I have to go in and manually start the MySQL service with

/etc/init.d/mysql start

. Yet if I put that same code in the dockerfile, it doesn't seem to run. What gives?

>>102483632
Does your Dockerfile even have an init system running? It probably doesn't. You would have to make the RUN command start the init enable the service beforehand. This is not best practice for making Dockerfiles but I'm sure you know that already.

>>102483561
>Are they linking against libsystemd?
Probably, they also have a hard dependency on Pipewire as of version 5 because PulseAudio worked like shit with the program before.

this is just bitwig developer cope for "we couldn't figure out pulseaudio"

>>102483771
That's fair for a DAW to be honest. PipeWire is meant for Pro Audio, PulseAudio is for desktop crap.

Why do they need Systemd for though? It seems odd for a desktop app to require that. Maybe they're logging to the journal but that's something that can't be deactivated without the presence of Systemd (log to syslog or a log file instead).

Does anyone else's computer sometimes hard freeze after resuming from suspend? I am using kernel 6.10 and Intel iGPU.

>>102483816
correct me if im off base but isnt pipewire dependent on systemd somewhat?

>>102483912
No, PipeWire doesn't depend on Systemd at all. It may have some optional functionality but it works just fine without it.

I'm trying to move Firefox profiles from one system to another (Debian to Debian). I copied ~/.mozilla/ and ~/.cache/mozilla/ and that took care of all browser settings, bookmarks, history and extensions. However, individual extension settings are missing some reason. No Greasemonkey scripts, no per-site uMatrix settings etc. What did I miss?

>>102483850
Anything in the journal?

journalctl -b-1 -r

>>102483947
hmm. maybe something about Homed, i dunno; Bitwig creates directories in your /home so *shrug*

throwing out my best guesses at this point because thats all you can do when the shit is closed source

>>102483850
yep. turned out my ssd was going bad. did journal logging and got a bunch of I/O errors on the disk. :)

>>102483967
They wouldn't use homed because there's too many people not using it. It seems more like an honest mistake to me. They just probably don't care enough to fix it.

>>102483984
>They just probably don't care enough to fix it.

I'm probably going to build a new computer soon, but i have a couple questions. I'm a long time windows user, but i'm really not a fan of how broken and awful it has gotten, so for my next pc i want to go full linux. I have linux mint on a different laptop that i use every now and then, and I like it. I also tried manjaro in a VM after being recommended it by a friend, and I really like how it looks and functions. Which one of these should I use? I would say i'm not exactly a newbie to linux, I have had it on that laptop for a couple years. Also, for my next pc, I do play a lot of games and do some video editing. Should I get an AMD or Nvidia gpu? Thanks in advance.

Fish and his bro.

I installed all the fun WMs like fluxbox, fvwm, icewm, jwm, matchbox, on ubuntu 20, but they all are broken.
I got LXQt hoping for a working DE, but it's just using fluxbox and icewm resulting in a broken environment with 2 bars and broken applets from default gnome.

What's the correct way to install wms on ubuntu to try them out?

>>102487203
Probably to install Lubuntu instead, which comes with LXQt by default and is made to run floating WMs.

>>102486131
Unless you care about making your games as pretty as humanly possible no matter the cost then go with AMD. Nvidia does have better ray tracing, upscaling and framegen, but those either run like shit or are unavailable on linux right now so if you don't want to wait a year for them to update their shit or don't care about any of that just go with AMD

All Linux DE's are broken. They are poorly designed, come with horrible default configs that have to be readjusted after every upgrade, and are full of bugs.

OpenBox and i3 are the two WM's that I've found to be reliable and mostly bug-free while still offering a sensible selection of features.

I've been using i3 on ubuntu for half a decade at this point, and there's not much I can complain about.

How can I use (should I?) proton-ge as the default wine profile without installing Lutris?

>>102488934
You can change it in the settings but it's not recommended.
Leave it as the wine system default, and switch the runner to a proton after installing a game instead.
Wine and proton has different install routines, so if you use proton to install by default many games will not work outside Steam. One example of this is the steam user folder created which replaces your user folder.

>>102488934
Just set WINE_PREFIX in your bash profile or whatever. I wouldn't because Proton breaks older software a lot.

Use winemenubuilder to create a .desktop file for foobar and it automatically includes the correct WINEPREFIX as part of the Exec= line. Or you can manually edit it to be `env WINEPREFIX=whatever wine foobar` if it doesn't. I find the dao of managing wine prefixes by yourself is keeping WINEDLLOVERRIDES='winemenubuilder.exe=d' until you want to use it.

If my Arch install ever breaks I'll try Gentoo, but the installation process seems somehow more autistic than Arch

>>102490881
It's just arch with a few tweaks, all of which you can implement yourself based on their github repo.
Their kernels are all also in AUR.
Phoronix did a benchmark on it a couple of years ago, but it's a bit outdated now.
https://www.phoronix.com/review/cachyos-linux-perf
The benchmark isn't exactly helpful since it doesn't measure against arch linux with the zen kernel which is most gamers goto kernel.

>>102490927
Is arch based distro with kernels optimized for gaming and you can choose the differnt kernel on the fly and comes with nvidia drivers preinstalled. How is it a meme

Every Arch derivative is a solution looking for a problem, you wanna use Arch? Here it is right here

Arch is cringe, you should use Fedora or Tumbleweed.

>>102490937
Latest videos shows promising results. I know what you referring to but its abit old

>>102490953
This.
Arch does not have any problems aside from lack of user knowledge and difficulty of installing which again stems from lack of user knowledge.
Whatever performance gains you get from CachyOS would be from failing to install and configure Arch properly.

Somehow this still filters people

Isnt cachyos like 3rd or 4rd most used distro? I saw it on download ranking or something if i can recall

>>102491021
arch but with calamares will always be in the top 10 no matter how shit or placeboware it is

>>102490997
I first installed manually, and then I wrote my own install script to better learn how to do everything, including deep dives into important configurations and tweaks.
This knowledge has helped me immensely with solving all problems, including in other distros.

>>102491047
idc desu

>>102491034
Cachyos is not placebo thats the thing

>>102491021
Arch in general is the third most used distro (this includes the derivatives), but I HIGHLY doubt any of Arch's derivatives have more users than regular Arch

>>102491056
Refer to the following:

if you need a GUI installer for Arch, you weren't the target audience, go back to fedora

this...so much this...

I have a bit of experience navigating RHEL at work configuring text files. Otherwise, I don't know much about Linux-specific ways of doing things. I want to try Linux, minimal install and easy setup, at home on a second computer to run these apps: Java, BitTorrent, network file share. Which distro?

>>102491253
debian or ubuntu, close your eyes and pick one

>>102490997
>>102491012
the only downside to archinstall is that most packages still ship with insane upstream defaults. network printing is a pain to set up.

>>102491253
Fedora server

>>102490947
>kernels optimized for gaming
Arch has that
>comes with nvidia drivers preinstalled
You can do that in under 5 minutes on normal Arch.

Neither of these justifies a separate distro.

archinstall doesn't have the option for a full disk LUKS2 encryption with GRUB-EFI, encrypted /boot, and BTRFS subvolume setup for snapper.
grub-btrfs + snapper + btrfs-assistant gets you bootable snapshots in the grub menu where you can just type "sudo snapper rollback" to restore to the current snapshot you are booted into
this is how you solve the issue of being unable to restore timeshift snapshots because you cant boot into and timeshift doesn't let you restore on an unmounted disk, where snapper does

Did something happen to the fucking emacs package? I can't enable the daemon, it sort of works but it only launches the terminal version, not the graphical one.
Gentoo's, Arch's and Emacs wikies didn't help. Just rebooted after removing the (not working) services and idk what to do now.
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsAsDaemon#h5o-1
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Emacs#As_a_daemon
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GNU_Emacs#systemd
What the hell is going on, it was always as easy as turn the emacs.service on and be done with it. I'm on KDE+Arch.

>>102491457
who told you snapshots were a metric?

Kinda silly how KDE doesn't store a local version of the image you pick as a wallpaper. My wallpaper folder is in a removable drive and I need to manually copy the one I want to a local folder because if not it resets to the original one after a reboot.

>>102491488
being able to restore from a failure is essential. failures happen on system updates, or driver updates that can break games
if you can just boot into a pre-update snapshot it solves all issues
my post also was not just about snapshots.

>>102491540
i just dont see the usecase for snapshots and encrypted volumes, mods close this thread this is a waste of time im probably talking to a serial child rapist

>>102491012
>>102491268
I'm running my current setup with archinstall for about a year because I it worked so well I got lazy to reinstall properly, and yea, the defaults on archinstall are for insane people, somehow feels less troublesome to just follow the wiki guide and install properly lol

how do I unrar files without corrupting them in linux mint? I downloaded >>/ic/7289010, and when I try to unrar it with the archive manager lots of images get corrupted and can't be opened with any image viewer I have. They also corrupt if I try to unrar it with 7z in the terminal, but if I open the folders in the archive manager and open some of the files that were corrupted they display just fine, so it looks like the rar OK, and the corruption occurs while unraring. I'm using KDE.

>>102491870
correct link >>>/ic/7289010

>>102491870
Install the unrar package and ARK will use it.

>>102491842
Most arch based distros don’t configure ANY of their shit correctly. Installing arch manually is the only way to guarantee your configs / tweaks are the ones you need/want, or even correct

Last time I tried to install EndeavourOS the calamari installer just errored out and crashed, lol

>>102491511
I disagree. I absolutely can’t stand that GNOME creates a duplicate. I save my wallpapers in a wallpaper folder in my pictures folder and I don’t need GNOME making duplicates of files that already exist on the computer

Just copy your wallpaper photo you goofass

>>102491957
How about... only making a LOCAL copy when there's not a LOCAL version of the image, like any sane person would do and think of the moment any of them encountered this, presumably common, issue?

>>102491912
thanks, that worked

>>102492013
That would be covering a use case that simply shouldn’t exist.
I have never heard of anyone trying to load wallpapers off a flash drive before.
If you aren’t going to use the computer normally, I.E. copy the files manually like a normal person, then you don’t deserve special treatment.

>>102492013
>presumably common
It's the first time I've ever heard someone doing shit like that.

>>102492105
"Normally"? What are you talking about you cum guzzling nigger? Don't your lardass leave the fucking house ever? Never heard of a external drive? Why should I keep hundreds of gigabytes of stuff on every single drive when I can just have a single external one with pictures, videos and songs I consume when using a computer?

My wallpaper is pulled from my NAS

>>102491752
You inevitably spend more time troubleshooting meme OS breakage than you save on the initial install. To justify a separate distro they need to change some very large packages with lots of external dependencies, like KDE Neon or mesa-git in Nobara.

>>102492140
That is very true. I spent more time troubleshooting flavor distros before moving to arch, than the time I spent manually installing and configuring arch. Eventually you run into problems with flavor distros, and then you don't know how to solve them, whereas with arch you learn it in the install process.

Don't you just hate OS's that don't properly auto rotate their logs.

>>102492124
External drives stay plugged in you fucking retard. No need to create a duplicate if KDE can reference it directly from the external drive.
DONT FUCKING UNPLUG IT. THATS YOUR PROBLEM.
you are fucking weird, dude. no one uses a USB for wallpapers.

your use case is pointless

>>102492230
Use case for an >>>EXTERNAL<<< drive you can't remove?

>>102492219
Lots of journald deployments have multi-GB logs. It doesn't mean they aren't being rotated properly.

>>102492238
Yes. I have a ten slot drive bay myself. 15GBs of HDD storage for archival.

This bay stays plugged into the PC

If you want to continue to use the wallpapers after you’ve unplugged your drives, COPY THE FUCKING FILES YOURSELF

WHY IS THAT KDE’S JOB LMAO, LAZY ASS NEGRO

>>102492292
It sure does at 27gb unless that is from a single day DDOSing.

>>102491870
The best open source rar extractor for linux is unar (not unrar). It doesn't have a gui, but it handles multi-part archives better than unrar and 7z. There are some very old archives which require proprietary unrar from rarlab.

>>102492300
Windows does it, MacOS does it, GNOME of all things does it, KDE is the exception. It's more of an oversight than a design decision.
I don't give a shit about your multi terabyte child porn collection.
There's absolutely 0 reason not to keep a local version of the wallpaper, doesn't matter if you're too retarded to understand why or if your severe crippling autism doesn't allow you to understand that people do things different.

>>102492358
>gnome does it
Gnome does it whether or not there is already a copy of the wallpaper or not. Gnome is shit that bloats up your system with redundancies
>that people do things different
No one else I know even has external drives.
You are fucking weird. You cannot deny this.

You are weird and deserve to be killed. :)

are there any cool tranny-free linux communities outside of 4chan?
ideally with an arch linux focus
i tried the arch linux matrix server but it was just tranny central, very disgusting
is it too much to ask for to talk about linux without trannies being involved?

You don't know anyone to begin with, you're a disgusting neet with no friends.
I don't think you should kill yourself because you don't even matter that much to anyone, just keep bumping these threads since this is the most meaningful thing you're doing with your life ever since you were born.

>>102489832
Switch to atomic versions and use flatpaks.

>>102490601
They use it because they are too poor to afford PCs with that hardware thing that Windows 11 requires. They mainly buy used PCs and laptops.

>>102492528
You seemingly don't know people either. Real people (i.e your typical normie NPC) use Google Drive or Dropbox and there their wallpapers are always accessible 24/7. People don't use external storage anymore.

Perhaps consider having a single source of truth for your wallpapers.

No, I've been using this noob distro for years, I just panicked when I saw this and part of that panic was the static on the screen making it appear like something was seriously wrong.
Do I run a risk when disabling secure boot? Should I boot into a live usb and see if I can copy some of my files over to a harddrive first? Or should it be fine?
