You don’t need an account. De-bloating scripts take care of most other annoyances. You can fairly easily beat windows into submission

This is about the cosmic desktop environment, not a CPU architecture

AFAIK CTT’s tool literally uses Microsoft provided tooling.

Edit: it’s the same tooling used by companies to modify their own windows installs

Last I checked windows 11 can be installed without TPM support. I think rufus even has a simple checkbox for it and Chris Titus’s winutil can modify an ISO to do the sams

That’s really cool! Rewriting sudo in Rust actually feels like a no brainer tbh

As a kid I used a metal tool to cut a live wire 220v-240v wire and besides getting scared by the jolt I was fine. Probably because the protection circuits kicked in

Hetzner storage boxes look really compelling. Thanks for sharing!

I’ve heard of tools like that, but this works fine for me. This way I’m not dependent on it being packaged for my distro and having to install it through other means. I’m fine running things manually, this is just for convenience

I don’t think I’ve posted it before, but here it is. If you use different utilities you’d have to swap those out. Also excuse the comments, I had GH Copilot generate this script

My update script handles mirrors, updates and cleans the cache automatically. I’d definitely recommend creating one. It’s aliased to sysupdate for me and I also check if it’s a debian or arch based distro so the command works on my servers and desktop

Very interesting, might have to check that out sometime

That looks really interesting! Does this exist for other languages like Rust?

I just scroll past those. I have set my XDG dirs which helps. If I were to reinstall it would be back once I have everything I need

Who cares with storage nowadays? I just use filelight or command line based tools to determine big storage hogs when I need to

Cloudflare tunnels definitely aren’t wrong, you’re just not entirely using open source software. It’s a very good option if you need to open things to the public or want to learn more about cloud services

You can selfhosted tailscale so that they don’t have any access. You can’t with cloudflare tunnels as far as I know. Tailscale’s client is open source, so is their Headscale server which originally was developed by a 3rd party. You can look into the code for that. Not sure what you’d want me to say. If you really want to be informed I’d inspect the code yourself

Tailscale shouldn’t be getting your data anyway. It’s a mesh VPN that directly connects devices after their auth server gives out certs and let’s clients know where to find another. If you’re not comfortable with using their server for this I’d suggest you look into the open source headscale server. I do remember it routing through their server in the rare case NAT punching doesn’t work

Why would I do that instead of going to the office of my company? Besides, knowing me, my productivity wouldn’t be much better if any compared to at home

I tend to have a harder time focusing at home compared to at work. I doubt the productivity difference is the same way for everyone

Why are you attacking so many loud majorities at once? Not everyone that likes some of those hates systemd or belittles users for
