At least they now allow passwords over 8 characters (yes, serious).
Are you 100% certain they don't just truncate your password to 8 characters?
If you've done an OEM unlock, you effectively already have root access to the device. You could boot a custom recovery right now and modify any system file.
"Rooting" just means using this privilege you already have in order to install a tool into the OS such that you can make use of this privilege while the regular OS is booted.
Go install Magisk and do the safetynet dance. It's a whole thing but should give you a "clean" device from the perspective of unprivileged apps. It's stupid that you have to do this but here we are.
I've yet to find a use-case for "making my system lighter" by exchanging a daemon that takes <0.1% of my total system memory for a bunch of poorly maintained bash scripts.
Must've gotten infected when eating the Android sweets.
Note that it'll still be a while until Nixpkgs will be bulk-formatted; this RFC "only" decides on the style and how to proceed.
All instances of malicious bots I saw around here were downvoted into oblivion.
I'd argue that link aggregators like Lemmy (from which I'm posting o/) are the new world version of that. Link aggregators are human-edited web directories; humans post links and other humans vote whether those links are relevant to the "category" (community) they're in. The main difference is that it's an open communal effort with implicit trust rather than closed groups of permitted editors.
Proper, integrated packaging is obviously preferred (though as a NixOS user I disagree that that implies an FHS) but this is about "stand-alone" packages. You're missing the point.
I don't get why we didn't just do it macOS style; bundle everything into one directory with a standardised structure and wire up file managers etc. to run the correct executable inside it.
Yes, it's called email. Run
git send-email
as Linus intended.
This is false. Off-screen buffers will scale with the target buffer size. A game running at 4k rather than 1080p implies all off-screen buffers for effects etc. increasing their size by 4x too.
Depends on how many other users are using the same proxy. If you host piped for yourself using your home internet connection, Google will absolutely know who is watching the video.
