I forced myself to use trash (from trash-cli) when I lost my first server install from this.

Nowadays, I've removed the alias from rm that asked me to use trash, and am still using trash if there's a chance I might want to keep something.

If it can be studied, it's not magic, it's science.

It's not actually hard if you know some high level basics. I recommend to use a git GUI or tui, makes things even easier. I personally use lazygit.

Who needs magic when we have science?

My advice: make your home directory a git directory. You can ignore everything in a gitignore, then make exceptions, like your vim configs, shell configay and so on. You have version control and on a new host you can just git clone and bam, you have your usual setup.

Seems like it belongs in the piracy communities. I assume it does not work on Linux?

You are probably confusing the glibc with gcc and g++. Glibc is an implementation of the C standard library, made by GNU (thats where the g in the name comes from).

If you were to look into it, it uses the syscalls to tell the underlying computer system what to do when you call functions, such as printf.

Iirc bad does not use glibc, but I'm not very involved with BSD.

That's not the main part of the article, just a footnote, for anyone wondering.

The flaw resides in the glibc’s syslog function, an attacker can exploit the flaw to gain root access through a privilege escalation.

The vulnerability was introduced in glibc 2.37 in August 2022.

Alright, you seem to have a good grasp on what you're doing. Good luck have fun. I really hope it works for you.
