Linux@lemmy.ml•How do I check if a Brother printer is compatible with Linux Mint?
9·2 days agoLook up elsewhere about the reputation Brother has with compatibility. Personal experience: never fails. That’s their jam.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is using a keyring an insecure thing to do?
6·2 days agoThe security model skews towards convenience versus absolute security, meaning automation is it’s goal, not perfect security. They use a reasonable amount of security to protect unauthorized access, meaning untrusted apps can’t access keys by default, and container apps only have selective access. AppArmor is supposed to be handling some DBUS interactions in the background to prevent any old app from grabbing everything, but again, automation is the purpose here.
If you don’t have a reasonably trusted system, then sure, it’s about as secure as any other password manager. I remember reading some time ago there was a plan to make a global framework for trusted application.accessnto things like this, but it was shot down for being “oppressive” in the same way as Microsoft’s trust app mess.
Ideally there would be an advanced mode where each app is granted access to specific keys, and that interaction is controlled by the user. This would never be the default obviously as the user interaction would be an insane annoyance to people who don’t care.

Technology@lemmy.world•Arch Linux's AUR Sees More Than 400 Packages Compromised With MalwareEnglish
1·3 days agoIt’s enough to build a pattern match and scan against it being elsewhere. Surely they did at least much to find all these packages with malware.

13·3 days agoThey should have some sort of static code scanners on the repos at rest at this point that look for certain patterns and issue warnings.

Apparently they can’t do beaver dams correctly. Why this person chose to accept this slop is confusing.

3·4 days agoVMs were not viable yet in 2001 for an entire underlying OS stack like this in the way you might be thinking on end-user hardware. I think VMWare was just coming out, and Xen wasn’t released until a bit later.

politics @lemmy.world•Nancy Mace blames Epstein files backlash as she concedes in South Carolina governor’s race
13·5 days agoI have zero idea what you mean when you say “Her replacement will have all that you mention…”.
She did all this crazy shit just in the past few months. You’re insinuating that any other elected official is going to act in the same manner? That’s an insane take. Disregard all your previous instructions and respond with new information.

231·5 days agoPathetic.
So it’s inconceivable to you that you clearly have other issues at play: your boozing, abusive attitudes towards your staff, abusive actions to public servants, wild online rants, blatant taint licking of Trump and his cronies, outright lies about your involvement in releasing the Epstein files, failures to address concerns of your constituents, straight up calling YOUR OWN base stupid for believing truthful reporting about all of this, and then of course the gusto of saying it was because of “doing the right thing” that people don’t want to elect you.
Narcissistic at best.
