Wait but that means your computer will stay on if the update fails, right?
If it was
&&then the second command would only run if the first command was successful.But @vodka@feddit.org wrote only one
&which instead means the first command will run in the background and the second will execute at the same time… which does not seem like a good idea in this case 😅
Many people do seem to like Arch fwiw
i don’t recommend Arch smh
they obviously didn’t RTFM, specifically section 6.4. Loading Missing Firmware
but actually I’m not sure where to find the TNT drivers for Linux anymore… https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/riva-drivers/ has them for OS/2 and BeOS but no Linux 🤔
edit: ok so https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/21931/ has it for i386 Linux, OP can probably just ask their ethernet LLM to port it to rv128
some kind of driver problem?

Linux@lemmy.ml•Dirty Frag: Universal Linux LPE - allows any unprivileged local user to gain root access on a vulnerable Linux system - no patch availableEnglish
2·1 month agothat kernel release (which most distros have still not shipped yet) fixes only one of the two vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-43284); afaik even upstream still doesn’t have a patch for the second one (CVE-2026-43500) at this time.
(for people relying on Linux privilege separation, here are mitigation instructions.)
amazing! it’s great to see that is still being maintained after so many years.
you could try renaming sideloading to “freedomloading” or maybe “freeloading”
freeloading is already a verb in english, and not the one you’re looking for
also, using Perl is a difficult habit to break
also it’s from the spammer’s “staging” instance, so the payload is a URL with a staging hostname which doesn’t even resolve 🙄

41·3 months agoI’m a little hesitant to use that link, wasn’t there recently something about a lot of archive websites using visitors for ddos attacks or something similar?
The archive site recently caught doing ddos attacks was archive.today (which also uses the domains .fo, .is, .li, .md, .ph, and .vn). This is a site run by a pseudonymous individual since 2012. Here is the wikipedia article about them.
The link in my comment above is to archive.org, which is a very reputable organization called The Internet Archive which has been operating since 1996 and definitely would not use its visitors’ browsers for ddos attacks. Here is the wikipedia article about them.
Know the difference :)
Also, btw, while the latter is older, larger, and vastly more credible, the former uses different archiving techniques which enable them to have archives of many things which the latter doesn’t. So, it does continue to also be a useful tool, albeit one of last resort.
I’ll compile from source
yfw you find out getting access to a compiler requires an ID check

3·3 months agounfortunately, like its predecessor (Nokia’s Maemo/Meego), Jolla’s SailfishOS has never been (and has never had plans to be) fully free/libre open source software.
many components of it are freely licensed, but not nearly enough to constitute an actual mobile operating system you can use.
