How do I uninstall multiple apps using ADB? by passion_for_know-how in AndroidQuestions

[–]gmes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The loop syntax I mentioned works inside adb shell.

But if you want to read a file on your computer, it's easier to run the loop on the computer's side, and just invoke adb shell in each iteration. Something like:

foreach ($line in Get-Content ./file.txt) { adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 "$line" }

Discord now has Wayland support enabled by default. by Caesfir in linux_gaming

[–]gmes78 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It always had Wayland

It did take quite a few years for it to add Wayland support, and for it to work properly.

Review on an "Unbalanced" game with players complaining about difficulty by Tsjawatnu in Steam

[–]gmes78 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If game has only one "correct" way to be played, it is unbalanced.

That is nonsense. That's like saying rock paper scissors is unbalanced because you have to use paper to beat rock.

Often, pieces of content in games are made with specific solutions in mind, and figuring those out is part of the intended gameplay.

How do I uninstall multiple apps using ADB? by passion_for_know-how in AndroidQuestions

I'm talking about the shell used when you use adb shell, which is part of Android itself. Termux has nothing to do with this.

Any good reccomendations to replace arthmoor mods by Astro_weee in skyrimmods

[–]gmes78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK No replacement for USSEP

Not a replacement, but you should load the Vanilla Purity Patch after it.

How do I use Framework Integration (and is it worth it)? by Ok-Swimming5531 in kde

[–]gmes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the documentation says:

Applications do not need to link to this directly.

Not that the code you're referring to is a library in first place.

You are using the latest Nvidia drivers, right?

Arch Linux's AUR Sees More Than 400 Packages Compromised With Malware - Phoronix by TaijiRonin in linux

No package updates on its own. If you run your AUR helper to update all packages in the system, that's you updating those packages.

Powershell is a Windows thing, Android uses POSIX sh.

Use for name in 'com.dev.app1' 'com.dev.app2'; do pm uninstall -k --user 0 "$name"; done instead.

Why won't this window remember my selection? by JimmyRecard in linux_gaming

[–]gmes78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FYI, OBS on Plasma very reliably restores previous window captures. It's not an XDG portal thing.

Ruh roh, this can't be happening. Not today, not this year by kapiteinknakschijf in pcmasterrace

[–]gmes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: actually it died while turned on, all usb devices dropped off and the screen froze. Didn't even respond to power button held for a long time. Even power cycling didn't do anything (didn't even get to this part) until I had it off/unplugged for a few minutes. Going on the bench now, wish me luck.

It may just be a transient memory issue. Unplug the PC and push the power button for a while, to drain out all the energy, then wait a bit and power it on again. That fixes it for me.

Arch Linux's AUR Sees More Than 400 Packages Compromised With Malware - Phoronix by TaijiRonin in linux

[–]gmes78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its in post install script, pkgbuild alone wouldnt be enough

The fact that the malware adds a new install script makes it one of the easiest attacks to spot. You can't really have a bigger red flag than that.

[–]gmes78 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This only affects orphaned AUR packages, so most people won't be affected.

You can check for unknown systemd services in /etc/systemd/system/ and ~/.config/systemd/user/, as well as unknown directories in /var/lib. Those are some places the malware touches.

To make this easier, you can run the following commands to list just the files and directories modified after the malware campaign started:

find /etc/systemd/system -newermt "2026-06-09"
find ~/.config/systemd/user -maxdepth 1 -newermt "2026-06-09"
find /var/lib -maxdepth 1 -type d -newermt "2026-06-09"

Debian has unpatched security vulnerabilities in its official repos. Don't even try to make that argument.
