Is there an easy way to setup firewalld (using firewall-config) to block or allow requests on software basis?
I'd only allow librewolf, steam and system package manager to connect outside.
At this point I don't like the idea of freely allowing freeware software to run on my machine and not blocking their internet access.
For example Bottle connects outside whenever it starts up.. And so does other software.

>>107158566
No, then you'll get retards killing their OSes like the last thread.
Google the error message, google with site:reddit.com, or man -K.

>>107158592
you can use some flatpak meme to cut bottles from internet (and put a bunch of other restrictions)
but yea, firewall is probably better if it automatically rejects everything

>>107158566
This. Reading the manual is piss easy now. They have actual web page manuals and LLMs to spoon feed you. In my day you had to deal with gnutards crippling man pages on purpose to get you to interact with their fuckawful emacs themed info browser, and what they had there was merely unreadable instead of incomplete.

>>107158617
I'm going to answer my own question: firewalld cannot be configured on per software basis like Windows firewalls. For this I'd need to use something like OpenSnitch.
After using Windows for so many years I just don't simply trust that some tranny programmed 'freeware' will just not connect to internet without my permission. Just because I'm using Linux doesn't mean I should blindly trust each and every software I'm using...

if one were writing a lightweight backend for their application targeting x11, using x11 drawing commands to render the interface would be more efficient than using cairo, yes?

Well apologies for destroying the friendly vibes but sure as shit I wasn't aware of manual entries about handling your computer after playing games with Lutris or bottles.

I usually look at the oficial documentaion/wikis from google/stackexchange for my current issues,to get a basic grasp of what is what but his was too complex to found in a single entry besides wine prefixes which only led me to prompt deepseek

>>107158596
I mean you do still have to be intelligent enough to ask the right questions and realise when you're being misled. There's no fixing stupid.

>>107158647
Efficient in terms of what? If you're using X11 Forwarding of a 56k baud modem then maybe, but in today's world everyone has a GPU and we like to use it.

>>107158592
No, it's not a software rule firewall. Could be a job for network namespaces

>>107158669
i try to pick the best tool for the job. i figure let the GPU render into GPU widgets, and let something like x11 render a simple button instead of xfering an image of the button across the network.

>>107158727
Yes, the draw commands are very much better for doing that over a network. No modern app works like that though, they all do the "composite the image into a buffer and transfer that over the network" thing which is why X11 Forwarding is essentially unusable with the vast majority of apps nowadays, it's a slideshow, it simply wasn't designed for that and there are many better protocols.

Spent some time on the streets last year, and decided to get a laptop and try linux because it's supposed to be good on weak machines. Having a personal computer I could use at the library/cafes helped me keep my humanity and I didn't have to miss out on having fun with a computer even with no/low funds. Life's gotten better, and I can't say I owe linux for that, but it certainly helped me keep my chin up. Cheers! Please take this Compaq pape as tribute.

Are Vim or its forks worth learning if I like using Nano? I'm getting ready to start teaching myself to program. Emacs is tempting, but a little intimidating.

>>107159523
Not really. CLI editor preference is 99% smugness. Learn how to do basic shit in vim like saving files and quitting vim, but unless you're a sysadmin for your real boy job there's no point.

>>107159523
i dont know about nano but vim has some neat bells and whistles which when you discover you realize you didnt know you needed
the joining lines keybinding alone saved me probably hours of work already
the . keybinding as well
random ass encryption feature that it has out of nowhere
terminal integration
it even has goddamn autocomplete by default

its also infinitely easier to use on mobile
other editors are unusable compared to vim
you have plugins to turn it into IDE

other than that tiling WM and/or tmux + nano is a nice combo

>>107159548
i learned vim in the intro cs courses in college, and still use it to this day

How do you get "custom" apps to launch on WindowMaker (i.e. Steam and Discord) when there isn't an app to drag to the dock?

>>107159684
iirc you need to bring up the window settings or whatever they're called and tell it to force an icon or something

>>107159523
Vim is good to know for a lot, but don't make a project of learning it. Just use it and pick up things as you go. Keep a cheat sheet somewhere and pick up a new motion every week or so. Total waste of time to pretend to learn it.

>>107159579
I use vim too but for programming, I have never learned how to use it properly. I'm just too slow with it unless editing some config files.

>>107159815
Insert
Visual Block
E/B navigation
You can press Ctrl+[ instead of Escape
:wq
:q!
r! echo some-command-that-will-be-dumped-into-the-document

That's all you need to know about Vim.

>>107159832
Yeah I know all of these. I'm talking about editing multiple files at the same time and picking stuff from other file stuff like that.

>>107159832
Thing is, for 99.99% of Linux users, nano will perform equally well, and every distro worth using will have both in their repos.

>>107159842
You can switch buffers with:
:b1, :b2, etc
You can close a buffer with :bd
You yank select text with y and paste it with p

>>107159851
If you just learn these basics of Vim then you'll still be flying even though you don't know everything. I'm not a Vim expert and would still use it over Nano any day.

>>107159842
not him but you do that with :tabnew
vim -p for opening multiple files from CLI
gt to the next tab
gT to the prev
i trust it you know how to yank shit by now
thats basically it with multible files

>>107159859
when you're editing a config file, ease of use matters more than how fast you can save the file.

>>107159969
And Vim is very easy to use if you learn those basics.

>>107160017
nano is even easier though and doesn't require *any* learning.

>>107160021
For simple edits, yes. For more complicated edits absolutely not.

>>107160021
It doesn't require any learning because you don't actually use it as an editor. You use zero of its features except type, move with arrow keys and save. This is the most clunky interaction ever compared to Vim, especially if you need to edit a lot of things at once.

How do you for example do multiple cursors in Nano so you can edit multiple lines at once?

>>107158647
assuming you're talking about networked x11, if you design your gui to be drawn with x11 primitives then it will be much faster, that's how x11 was originally designed, for remote viewing
modern toolkits instead render everything themselves and only hand off the finished bitmap to x11 (or wayland), which sucks over networked x11

>>107160030
usecase for editing multiple lines at once that isn't just an overcomplicated search and replace?

>>107160077
Appending a comma to multiple lines or inserting a dash/hyphen at the beginning of multiple lines for a YAML list.

Do you even edit config files?

>>107160124
Write your config files properly the first time, why the fuck are you having to insert dashes by hand?

>>107160177
>t y p e o u t e v e r y c h a r a c t e r b y h a n d s l o w l y
If you used Vim that would be way more efficient

>>107160183
type faster faggot

>>107160207
Yes, type all of those commas and dashes by hand when you have a pre-made list you pasted into the file from elsewhere and need to format it appropriately. That's going to take you all day.

Nano is a toy for people that use it as a typewriter rather than an editor, even things like Micro are better than it if you're stuck on being too retarded for a modal editor but still want something better.

Lmao, at this point I'm convinced nobody is using GNOME. When similar shit happens on KDE after major update it gets fixed in next 2 minor updates

>>107160224
Again, why aren't you generating these config files with a script? Why are you typing these out by hand like an intern?

>>107160233
Writing a script to do that takes longer than just doing it in Vim but I guess that's good job security for you if you're bored.

>>107160238
You've clearly had to write yaml configs more than 1 time, which means writing a script would have saved you time after the first one.

>>107160239
I've had to do it many times in fact. You clearly haven't. People that actually edit config files need features like multiple cursors. It's why every editor apart from Nano has it.

Writing a script for something that should take 5 minutes at most is not the answer.

>>107160253
This is what I was talking about earlier. People who use vim constantly have to justify that they spent the time to learn vim instead of just using nano, so they invent scenarios that don't need to happen to justify their usage of vim.
Nobody cares what editor you use besides yourself, man.

>>107160253
Also, if you do write a script you're going to need a good editor to write the script in anyway otherwise you'll be in a recursive loop of editing your script to workaround Nano being shit in Nano but realising Nano is still shit so you need to write a script in Nano for your script your editing in Nano.

>>107160268
What is the scenario for a typewriter?

>>107160275
Usecase for caring what text editor people use?

>>107160284
I genuinely don't care. This whole chain started because you said Nano was easier to use. I agreed with you that yes, in the simple case it probably is easier.

There are better editors that people that edit config files actually use though.

>>107160298
just use KWrite kappa

>>107160312
Kate is better. I do use that sometimes for when I don't feel like sitting in the terminal.

>>107160320
I have this alias anyone can pinch if they want:

$ alias sukate
sukate='env SUDO_EDITOR='\''kate -b -n'\'' sudoedit '

So I can do something like:

sukate /etc/hosts

to edit the hosts files using sudoedit.

>>107160336
in my experience, when using Kate or other GUI editors to edit system files, if I don't have permission to save, it'll just ask me for my password to save it. No need to faff about with sudoedit.

>>107160355
That requires the Kio Admin plugin which not every system will have (I don't have that installed on my system):
https://invent.kde.org/system/kio-admin

If you already have sudo auth'd in your terminal (because the cookie is valid) then this alias will also never ask for permission, it'll just write out the edits once you've finished saving it.

>>107160367
sudoedit should also in theory work with Flatpak Kate, or any other editor too because it never requires that the editor itself have root privileges. It's a pretty neat tool in sudos toolbox.

>>107160367
not having kio-admin installed is definitely a choice.
Like sure it's your system but also: why?

>>107160480
It's questionable what value it provides for the higher attack surface.

>>107160490
Fair, but the article even admits the potential for exploits is low.

Why don't you just set "EDITOR=kate -n -b" in your environment and use regular sudoedit?

LXQt 2.3 is dropping soon on Arch, has more complete cross-compositor Wayland support and many improvements

>>107163016
ext4 is mostly legacy. It has nicer UX for people coming from Mac / Windows because you can paper over hardware fuckups with fsck and keep working. Traditional Unix filesystems treat corruption as a serious matter where you should backup and reformat and didn't go through great pains to repair the existing filesystem.

btrfs has really high CPU overhead for fast storage. xfs and ext4 have basically equivalent performance. Certain workloads may favor one or the other, but for general use xfs having reflink is an overwhelming advantage.

I still don't understand why GNOME ever broke that. It's a recurring pattern now that GTK apps that once supported a tray icon on KDE do nothing now. I get that you only care about one single desktop environment but there are other environments out there besides yours.

>>107164967
>I get that you only care about one single desktop environment but

There is no but. They don't care. 90% of g would act like GNOME devs given the skill and position. Of course they have nothing but salt for days about software they don't even use.

Because they were too lazy to implement it and doubled down with muh usability escuses. Now they can't go back or they'll look like idiots. It's the same with Wayland and global coordinates

>>107165016
The thing is /g/ DID use GTK based software that had a tray icon. So did many other people outside of this echo chamber. That all regressed once they removed support. I still come across GTK apps sometimes with a system tray checkbox in their settings that does absolutely nothing.

hashsum existed and was merged into cksum, they're clearly not against such things. the default output should match GNU cksum but the option to generate the variant used by almost everyone would be nice.

But I presume it gets more attention from devs than any other init system these days so maybe that should make systemd pretty secure. I dunno though.

Zoom into your screenshots with different settings and compare them. You can at least compare font rendering.

>>107165910
>>107166253
For web browser I'm using MS fonts from Windows. Firefox/Libreshit needs specific about:config tweaks to fix up the blurry rendering.
For system/wm fonts I'm using San Francisco Pro Display / Mono and that's Apple.
Linux DEs are just trash these days in terms of fonts but nu-web browsers are even worse.

>>107166253
Sorry i wasnt trying to throw shit at you're font. I'm just complaining because I used noto for a long time and learned to hate it. I use the Ubuntu font which is fine but nothing special. I don't really know what makes a font look, and there's too many fucking options

>>107166013
You need to export it for it to be available to child processes. Add it in the file that sets up the environment for your login shell, like .profile you mentioned.

>>107166706
It's tricky because for a font to truly work everything in the UI should be unified across applications. In linux this is impossible due to gtk, qt, flatpaks, window managers and whatever else.
And seems like people who develop desktop environments are blind or have issues recognising functionality and readability...
Mint and Cinnamon wasn't too bad either I suppose. It's somewhat different but very readable.

>>107166237
The sheer naivete on display in this post is genuinely breathtaking. To seriously posit that "more attention from devs" is a net positive for security, without a single thought for who those developers are or what their incentives might be, reveals a profoundly simplistic, corporate-drone worldview.

>>107166237
Personal preference mostly. Also Systemd can be very buggy sometimes because of how large it is. I still get bugs with Systemd Resolved refusing to resolve DNS sometimes on a Debian VPS I have which completely went away as soon as I swapped it with Unbound.

This is from my openbox desktop from ~2013. I've been using MATE/KDE for the past ~10 years so I don't remember anything about how I made it look like this. I know the image viewer and cmus theme because I still use them today.
Does anyone know off the top of their head what theme the outlines are from? Or what the snow was from?

>>107168961
How do you deal with files without metadata in your cmus library? Is there a way to use directories instead of importing files?

>>107168974
Not that I'm aware of. Fooyin and deadbeef (with a plugin) can use directories, but I've found both programs to be unstable. I use puddletag to quickly add uniform artists to everything I download, only takes a few seconds and I don't download new music much anymore.

There are lots of other DNS services. Hyperbole notwithstanding systemd isn't supposed to provide your whole OS.

If you ship something as part of your software suite then it's clearly intended for use. Why are you hand waving it away?

I know windows gets jealous and starts to fuck things up when you dual boot out of a partitioned drive, but is it the same if I have windows and linux on separate drives?

>>107169325
Just disconnect your other drive before you install it. Windows has been known to fuck other people's drives in the past during install but once it's installed it's generally fine.

>>107169312
Because distros are expected to understand the finer points of these choices. "but it was the default" isn't an excuse.

>>107169374
It wasn't the distro that configured it though, I did. How was I supposed to know you're not supposed to use it and if you attempt to do so it will break your DNS?
There's no support matrix anywhere and if there were it'd probably be a pain to maintain because Systemd is huge.

There are advantages to using software with a smaller and well defined scope.

>How was I supposed to know you're not supposed to use it and if you attempt to do so it will break your DNS?
You're supposed to test all the options and become a subject matter expert. Most likely you just fucked something up on your own time.

>>107169509
I didn't fuck anything up the symptoms were as follows:
>Restart systemd-resolved
>DNS will work
>Go and have a coffee and get something to eat since everything is working great
>Come back and DNS will have broken
>Check journald logs and see it's complaining about some entry in /etc/hosts that it can't read properly for whatever reason and it's decided to break DNS as a whole as a result and is just stuck and no longer answers and replies
That is a bug in Systemd Resolved and yes, testing software like I did is how you find out what is dogshit and what is not. Systemd is dogshit.

>>107169541
Maybe you fix the file the error message tells you.

>>107168994
Cool, thanks for mentioning Fooyin. I did some research earlier and wasn't really sure and Fooyin didn't come up in my own research.

>>107169575
The file was valid syntax, the issue was Systemd. I switched to Unbound instead which actually offers a much nicer interface to do what I was doing anyway and I wish I'd listened to all the people saying not to use Systemd sooner but I thought I should at least give it a fair chance.

>>107169593
Also, even if the file were invalid Systemd should absolutely not break the entirety of DNS because of one single invalid entry it doesn't like. It doesn't even crash it just stays running but refuses to answer anymore.

well a lot of the "general" things you are doing in it ARE repetitive tasks

all these nerd ass setups and keyboards to edit text fiiles "faster" in reality do nothing cause your biggest overhead is a mental one
unless you are one of these people who "thinks" about code by typing it out first

this is also why i prefer CLI, cause i can just put commands in a plaintext file and make it executable so that i dont need to remember anything and i literally just need to type a single command and my 'puter just does everything automatically

depends on the distance to your face, your eye sight, glasses and so on

in my experience phones might be slightly too small for terminal (it just doesnt fit) and large tablet size (around ipad) with text font on a larger side is ok-sh given you also remove retarded software buttons clutter and just use full screen CLI or something similar and use physical keyboard instead of software one

what if you want to use lvm?

>>107170854
Technically you can just store the kernel in the EFI System Partition and be done with it. Distros still use /boot as a separate partition for legacy reasons and because they're too lazy to update their installer.

>>107170949
You should reconsider.

>>107167042
Use case?

>>107170919
2004 was still when all programming languages sucked ass so people were constantly jumping ship to whatever new flavor of the year language got released. In reality most companies just used PHP, C# or Java.
Even today you will most commonly find JavaScript, PHP, Python, Go, C# or even Rust instead of RoR on servers. Ruby is just a completely irrelevant language outside of legacy projects which are stuck on it.

>>107171049
PHP just werks. It was what most people used back then and it's still what most people use today. It's not a sexy a language though so doesn't get any plaudits but when you look at things like Wordpress which is probably the most successful piece of web software ever, it's everywhere.

>>107170974
for me i make /boot the ESP and put the bootloader/kernel/initramfs in there
the esp doesn't have to be /efi or /boot/efi

>>107171163
Same. I would assume this is more common than /efi which isn't even in the filesystem hierarchy specification: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/fhs/latest/index.html

/boot/efi is probably the most common given distros insist on having a separate partition for /boot still so therefore mount the ESP inside of that.

Is it possible for grub's auto timer, to change on its own?
It's on arch linux.
The timer i set to grub is 5 seconds, i came home one day and it's 30 seconds.
Did somebody change it?
I'm worried somebody cloned my drive or accessed my shit. I didn't encrypt my drive.

I never updated arch ever, it was a clean install and i just fucked with some settings and tinckered around.

>>107171129
>still what most people use today
That's only because Wordpress uses it. So it's not even being directly used in many cases. It's just what powers the most popular CMS where people just drag images and text into.

>>107171228
People also use things like Laravel to write their own custom stuff in. PHP is very popular still for people that want to get shit done instead of spend all of their time writing JavaScript or figuring out how the hell to get Python to scale.

>>107171225
shouldn't be possible given you don't use root

>>107171225
The default grub timer is usually anywhere from 1-10 seconds. It goes up in the following cases:
>your system was forcefully powered off during the previous boot process (power loss, manually holding the power button, clicking the power button while in the grub menu)
>you had a crash related to grub itself
>you updated your OS and grub got updated
>you updated your grub config
The intent is to give you enough time to recover in the rare case where a system update or a grub reconfiguration causes an unbootable system. Since 1-10 seconds is sometimes too short for people to interact with the keyboard and pause the timer.

Since you haven't updated but did tinker around, I assume you updated something related to your bootloader or you powered off your computer in a non-graceful way. So, you're fine.

If I install w10 on an NVME drive with the gdr nu-bootloader or whatever it's called instead, will this somehow cause problems with wiping it completely and installing arch or another Linux distro on the same drive once I'm done with windows forever due to some low-level Microsoft trickery?

Of course not. They all use the same AMDGPU kernel driver and the same RADV on top of that.
As long as you have the necessary firmware files installed. I don't know how it is on Mint, but on Gentoo you'd have to manually install firmware. I guess Mint has all the firmware files installed by default.

the rightmost icon is disappearing whenever i dont have any windows open, or changes to a virtual desktop with no windows.
The icon to the right is displaying my current power pland and when i click it it changes it.
theres still an invisible "button" to press when its not showing, its just the icon that is removed.
Ive tried changing fonts from nerdfonts to fontawesome in the waybar css but it doesnt make a difference. something has happened the last few days i havent had this problem before. anyone know what kind of weird bug this is and how to fix it?

forgot picture

Kernel 6.9 and beyond breaks everything. Why?

>>107171636
it's a hodge podge of shittily written bash scripts that never check for errors

>>107174915
Because you didn't install your blob drivers under package management.

I don't think you know what this means

>>107175184
no, they enabled SATA power management by default and now a bunch of disks don't work.

they also did some stupid things with nvidia driviers and Bluetooth modules and they haven't fixed anything yet.

Does anyone know what is the delay with goyvidia drivers for Fedora 43? It's been over a week and rpm fusion still doesn't have the latest driver.
But god forbid if it was 0.001 daily update to kernel I would need to build akmods every three days

>some stupid things with nvidia driviers
Not the kernel's problem
>Bluetooth modules and they haven't fixed
They break some every release

fuck i hate that channel
all he does is humiliate willing people who are obviously not good programmers and his fanboys are all up his asshole
>but you would be instantly disqualified if you don't know this trivia in an interview
okay coolio, finance is extremely competitive anyways and many talented devs will be disqualified on variety of reasons even if they had the skills

>>107174869
post config so there's a chance someone can help
also check the debug logs

>>107175319
nah the issue is these clowns might not be real
ive read some rumors, plus this shit is just way too ridiculous
if they ARE real they should never touch a goddamn computer ever again
if you call yourself an "OS dev" for example and you dont know what kernel space and user space is or how threads work you should just fucking kill yourself

>>107175381
>nah the issue is these clowns might not be real
ahh, that is probably it, he is promoting his website too. also took a major interest in the piratesoftware drama to springboard himself

>>107175352
i can post the config but theres so much shit there
so the issue seems to be hyprland/window thats next to it, when i remove that module it works. when the module has no window to show it removes the icon for some reason.
the module looks like this:

"hyprland/window": {
"format": "{}",
"on-click": "wofi --show drun"

>controller advertises LPM support
>drive advertises LPM support
>kernel enables LPM, drive stops working
Not the kernel's fault.

>he is promoting his website too. also took a major interest in the piratesoftware drama to springboard himself
thats fine, tho i guess this can count as a point towards his possible motivations for faking
if hes faking this shit that is the cringe part

he does *feel* sketchy to me, just something is off about him, cant really tell what it is

>>107175352
also debugging shows nothing unusual

>Not the kernel's fault.
But my SSD don't work and I have to blame someone. Also why this happens only on Linux. In windows my SSD works just fine.

yeah I think it worked this time. at least in a placebo way.
>>107166612
i might try the ms fonts. also afaik, the FREETYPE_PROPERTIES settings I mentioned earlier ITT have made a difference.
default settings in linux tend to be ass and unoptimized in terms of UX, this isn't new.
Big DEs either have this stuff built-in or they don't even bother because no one pushes for it to be made the default.
One thing I'll say about Microshit after going cold turkey Arch Linux/Wayland/Sway is it's good to have a lot of people complaining, you can really see that's how Microshit got good UX eventually. people just kept complaining.
>>107166706
see what I mentioned about freetype properties.
it's not that hard to get a good default going once you know where to change things.
at least now it feels like standards are being followed, even though standards may not be implemented by default (and you have to fuck around with config files)

I don't hate black people.

I hate all jews and many white people (for sucking jew cock). Other than shitjeets (who no one likes anyway), I don't see other races sucking off jews - only whites.

Could anyone explain to me the differences between the packages "plasma, plasma-desktop, plasma-meta" on Arch? I'm trying to install it manually. I'm using the "minimal" option from the Kubuntu installer as reference, which comes with the mere basics but works out of the box.

>>107175695
you should only ever need to install one of those (that brings in the rest). idk if this is the meta package or not. usually i'm good with installing the simplest named one and it does the rest. so install "plasma".

>>107175695
plasma is a package group, it acts like you manually typed in every package name
plasma-meta is a meta package which is just a tiny package that has all the KDE components depending on it. archinstall defaults to this one and it's probably better in the long run if you want to pull it out.
