Maybe a buffer issue, does scp work?

And thus USA has 70 million voting for a Moron twice, then some complaining when he does exactly what he said he would do. They could not think ahead on how his plans could go badly. And those on the dumber scale still support the administrations plan to eliminate science, health and research because somehow it will be better 😱

The company that makes the paint version of VantaBlack licensed it only to one guy to use, the art community felt that was unfair. Thus the pink, and I think a new black etc.etc.

They sell it as a paint, however : "Controversy arose when Surrey Nanosystems granted Anish Kapoor exclusive rights to use Vantablack in artistic applications. Many artists voiced opposition to his monopoly over the substance."

Or could be if you copy it via Nautilus GUI, people have suggests doing a straight cp from CLI has better results than Nautilus.

Microsoft being closed source hides their bugs and vulnerabilities. Even when security researchers have sent in reports MS has sat on them due to profit being motive not security, and not taking vulners seriously until the researchers say screw that and publish it.

Linux being open can have all eyes on it, and if there is an exploit, there is a community willing to help ASAP.

On many distros you may have weekly or even daily updates or patches coming through with fixes. A distro like OpenSUSE has various patch and list patch commands that show what security patches are avilailable, their status (critical, recommended) and if it's needed on your system or not depending on what you have installed. You don't get transparency on closed source systems.

If you are paranoid about security you can use AppArmor tools or SELinux. AppArmor can be set to learn how an app behaves, then you lock it so the app can't do new things.

SELinux you set rules for files and folders, so even with remote access an attacker can't access data if rules don't allow file listing over SSH etc

Wait till they try ls -laz

I find it good for music and film suggestions. You feed it a set of ( I want a suggestion like these ) and it provides a good result.

Also good at building mermaid code for diagrams, just tell it write me mermaid code for this, and drop in a descriptive paragraph, then copy paste the code into mermaid.live

That use case became very useful so there is a paid mermaid page to automate that manual process.

One of my colleagues did a lot of work in Japan in a very niche industry.

They lost their shit one day because he replied to an email without the formal salutations...like rather than Dear Honorable Hiro San, We thank you for your data transfer, and will begin the process of review; He wrote something like Hey Hiro, got your files, and will investigate. Thanks.

It was a big kerfuffle with managers involved on how he could be so rude and disrespectful.

You can solve that problem by making an additional efi/boot partition when you install Linux over the Windows install.

You have Linux setup with its own boot partition and the install should probe for a foreign OS, it then adds a chainloader entry in grub to point to the Windows EFI partition.

You set BIOS to boot from Linux EFI partition. When it comes up at boot you can chose Windows and Grub hands over control to the windows bootloader, but Windows is ignorant of Linux EFI existing. It now only messes with its own EFI and never touches the Linux stuff.

It is a bit like a backwoods hicktown in some ways, except the woods are playgrounds covered in drug needles.

Amazon has Beednova brand Premium Hotel Pillows, they are a simulated down pillow, and it is the best pillow I've ever had.
