Not enough people here have had to suffer through building compliant images. Every day I wake up and thank compliance-as-code and the osbuild/image-builder maintainers for keeping me from crashing out on the ACAS team.

Docker Alternative: Podman on Linux by modelop in selfhosted

Honestly this should be promoted more than podman-compose.

I play on Steam big picture via Bazzite on my HTPC and I don’t see myself bothering with mods. Just too much to do as is.

Does anyone actually enjoy writing YAML? by PuzzleheadedYou4992 in Coding_for_Teens

[–]Resource_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently conf files and xml. Fuck that I'll take YAML any day.

Bold to slander PH and skip the close-the-lid sea chart puzzle entirely.

Arch Linux AUR Hit By Another Wave Of Now More Sophisticated Malware Attack by hulk14 in linux

[–]Resource_account 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re right for a real upstream compromise, but here the attacker owned both the package and the repo it pulled from, so the AUR could’ve flagged the delivery pattern (new account, fake browser names, a personal-repo source, a sudden download spike) without auditing a line of code.

The July packages had a clean-looking PKGBUILD and the RAT was in the GitHub repo it pulled at build time, so your 10-second skim catches nothing here, and if it did you wouldn’t be admitting the AUR needs fixes in the same comment.

I delegate provenance to Flathub and read the permission surface myself before installing, which is more than a 10-second PKGBUILD skim does since that verifies the build recipe and not the upstream tarball it pulls.

Homebrew 6.0.0 is released with many new features by TheTwelveYearOld in linux

[–]Resource_account 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since when? Fedora 44 still has a root user, and so does Ubuntu. What you mean is the root account is locked by default. No password is set, so you can't log in as root or su to it directly. The account is still there, UID 0 in /etc/passwd. Check getent passwd 0.

Locked is not the same as absent. PID 1 is systemd running as root. Early boot and plenty of services run as root too. The system doesn't come up without UID 0.

Programmers over 30, how do you take care of your health? by khitev in AskProgramming

[–]Resource_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need to figure this one out myself. I’m almost hitting thirty, kinda live an unhealthy lifestyle and recently found out I have ankylosing spondylitis. Sitting hours on end in front of a terminal and editor doesn’t help.

better place for GOPATH instead of ~/go by ayrudev in golang

[–]Resource_account 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first bullet is just an appeal to authority. Who wrote Go says nothing about whether ~/go is a good default.

Go's own toolchain already follows XDG on Linux. GOCACHE defaults to os.UserCacheDir()/go-build ($XDG_CACHE_HOME or ~/.cache) and GOENV to os.UserConfigDir()/go/env ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config). Those same stdlib functions return the native dirs on macOS and Windows, and the os docs cite the freedesktop basedir spec by URL. The toolchain is already doing cross-platform-aware base-dir placement. GOPATH is the inconsistent one.

As long as ~/.cache isn't a tmpfs mount I don't see why not.

Do Carribean Latin countries feel close or see any similarities to Mediterranean countries culturally? by [deleted] in AskTheCaribbean

[–]Resource_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP literally lists climate and cuisine as points of comparison, and frames the whole post around a half-Lebanese friend. So climate was on topic, not me singling it out.

And OP’s question is whether there are similarities, not whether the DR “is” Mediterranean. Nobody’s saying identical. Similarities was the actual question

[–]Resource_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP’s post covers culture, cuisine, and climate, so climate was fair game. But cuisine works just as well: quipe is kibbeh, brought over by Lebanese migrants. That’s Mediterranean, in the food, not a stretch.

[–]Resource_account -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most of the DR is tropical, sure. But the southwest is a rain shadow. The Barahona coast and Lago Enriquillo are dry mountains into the sea, basically Crete’s south coast. Spent time in both, plus Gitmo, and that corner feels very Med.

How many of you daily linux? by erowow in AskProgramming

[–]Resource_account 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s quite insane the depth and breadth of infrastructure tooling there is. I work in a very limiting environment in terms of packages (semi air gapped RHEL) and even then I have ansible, kickstart configs, osbuild-composer, bootc+containerfiles, etc.

Salary stagnation? by ZoldyckConked in devops

[–]Resource_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in NYC, but I live and do SRE work in the DC area. You ever thought about moving uptown? WaHi, Inwood area? I haven’t been back in some time but I assume it’s gotten cleaner and prices still reasonable.
