Yup. You can only add the nopax flag as root, so if your system is already hosed, not much else you can protect. Root has access to ring 0 so anything goes with access like that. Stuff like pax would slow them down for sure and stop script kiddies, but root access is root access.

No privileged accounts can't do anything with the nopax flag. That's why you should configure your system to not run things as root as much as possible. Personally; on desktops, I don't even use a sudoer natively. I have to su into my sudoer account in order to run root commands.

GrSecurity adds so many layers of protections to the kernel. They are literally decades ahead of the vanilla Linux kernel in terms of security. With all of the hardened GrSec settings checked/configured correctly, it stops the majority of 0 ring exploits (at least when I was running it before they went full GPLv2).

PaX is an awesome part of GrSec. Mprotect stops any read and write and execute access to memory in both user and kernel lands (only rx or wx). Stuff like web browsers won't work unless you have a program to mark it in elf to not use pax. However, this kills a lot of exploits with that turned on by itself (though there are probably work arounds if you are developing exploits which the other features would hopefully catch). That's why people installed 3rd party unmainlined security patches, but that's just me maybe idk.

I hope this venture will be more fruitful than the copy paste code that people kept trying to push to the hardened Linux kernel project (despite the maintainers best intentions and countless efforts to stop that)

I left a negative review on a "AAA" game and the dev responded to it by gas lighting me that I didn't play it right.

TL;DR starfield sucks

Uhh ~~sir~~ Linus, this is a ~~Wendy's~~ Linux kernel.

Why force your political beliefs on something that has nothing to do with?

veneration doesn't mean worship. there's a huge difference. Idol worshippers believe the statues / picture / whatever is some kind of living god. Orthodox or catholics who venerate icons of Christ or the Theotokos (Mother of God) or other saints are not worshipping them. They are venerating / showing respect to the icon that is representing the saint who is alive in Christ or God.

Its about the same difference, but you can definitely tell the difference between 1600p and 720p.

I got a onexplayer for like $600 and it has the 7840u in it. No matter how you slice it, the 7840u is much more powerful than the steam deck. However, it doesn't do well in low tdp. That's what the steam deck is best at - low tdp gaming and battery life.

But so long as I'm near an outlet, I can play more AAA games and on much higher resolution and graphics than the steam deck for however long I'd like. On battery, only about 3-4 hours vs 6-8 hours on a steam deck.

Hardened gentoo was great when grsecurity had their kernel patches opened freely to the public, but now idk. I'm more into hardenedbsd than anything gentoo nowadays.

People can and do make idols of anything, but Linux in itself is not a religion.

I think the last 2 seasons of enterprise has got to be the best seasons of all star trek series

I think the main reason Firefox isn't on there is because redox os doesn't use Wayland and x11. Porting firefox would be a massive effort unfortunately.

The majority of people do not hold extreme left or extreme right views. While the majority of democratic and republican candidatesaree trying to match up to the extremes of their parties, and you get the same results and nothing done. Why not have common sense take a shot at running things?
