I was talking about “Yundera”.

Is this a casaOS fork you need to sign up for, to get it installed? …Why?

Can we …like… add a bit more context to posts here? Is it entirely vibe coded or does it work? What’s with Pewdiepie? Did anyone try it?

Lmao. Thanks. Seems this is the issue report then, to stay informed about the outcome: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/915

There’s maybe still hope. If this really is a botched AI security fix, it’d be a great opportunity to fail early and learn something. Like to re-think the AI approach 😆

Difficult to tell. I don’t see anything too obvious or offensive in the commits. They also write like a human in the associated pull requests. Not sure what Claude’s role is here. Also the added code comments are kinda on point, use contractions… Not really what I’d expect from an AI.

Is there more info on this? A blog post or some statement by the project? At first glance this doesn’t look to me like other vibe-coded projects.

Uh. I guess people have random opinions and blast them on the internet. I can see how someone would misconfigure their computer and then blame it on the software. Or use software they don’t need, which just adds unnecessary complexity and more issues. Other than that, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with SELinux.

I have internet at home, an electricity bill. A few domains and a VPS.

Uh yeah. That is more information… Sorry, I’m not that familiar with Snaps. It looks to my untrained eye a bit like the report on the Snap itself, maybe it advertises to support running in strict confinement. Which it could… but doesn’t do. (Alike the other channels, which you could install, but didn’t… It’s kind of buried with that kind of information.)

It’s confusing at least. And the user definitely wouldn’t expect it from that wording. So I’d view it as a separate bug as well. And dropping confinement without notice would be the third thing, I’d consider a bug.)

Uh. Blog is down. All I get is an 404 for the link in the Mastodon post.

Edit: Here’s a link that works: https://github.com/eleboucher/towonel

No need. It’s already reported. And known since Dec 2019. 👀

Yeah. And I’d say with the SELinux problems and with what OP wrote, the security model including things like a failure mode to fall open, …silently… There’s more things to be wary of, than what they wrote in those 4 sentences.

It may not be wise to use a Snap without first understanding the reputation/limitations of Snap.

seems the Debian Wiki has pretty much your take on it 😅

If I had to guess, this isn’t a bigger issue because Snap is mostly pushed by Canonical. And in a bit of a weird way (proprietary backend, exclusive apps) so… reception in the rest of the Linux community is …mixed. To put it charitably. It’s probably not that relevant for most people outside of the Ubuntu ecosystem. And probably also not a priority for Canonical or the proprietary software vendors.

Online classified ads, your neighbour/relative/friends attic, the access road towards the recycling center/landfill, a refurbished PC shop… From my experience the world is filled with old hardware that’s plenty good enough, just doesn’t run Windows 1X anymore so it becomes e-waste. You can of course also buy a Mini-PC on Amazon or use your existing computer if it has enough RAM to host a virtual machine.

… don’t forget about the backups.

And if your major issue is putting things in wrong locations… Maybe learn about some abstraction layers, so next time you’re able to just move it, instead of tearing it down?

Solid choice. I like Flask’s design. They have good documentation as well. And PieFed (and probably lots of other projects) also rely on flask-login and all these extensions.

I think Quart is the more modern (async) Flask successor. Or people use FastAPI, … That’s where active development happens. The Flask ecosystem is more stable, mature I guess? There’s plenty old plugins without recent updates. But most I had a look at were written in a very clean way, and they’re probably perfectly fine. Unless they’re niche or you find some discussion about security-related stuff in the bugtracker.

Thanks for the link! But I’m afraid it doesn’t tell me much. a) FreeBSD isn’t even on the list, so I don’t know the numbers to compare it to. and b) there’s things like survivorship bias. Looking at numbers like this is literally the textbook example of how to do it the wrong way. You have to do statistics the proper way around. For all we know by those numbers, Linux could be the best battle-tested OS in the world. I mean they fixed 3 times as many vulnerabilities as Microsoft did for any of their products?!

Sometimes I wish people would back up their factual claims with numbers and studies.

Also: FreeBSD phone, when??

Sorry, I just saw the recommendations. I’m using a Matrix server myself. And it’s connected to the internet, since I use it 24/7 and on my phone, etc.

I guess technically, most protocols can be used in an internal network. But maybe you’ll need to put in some extra effort, for example if a platform requires SSL certificates or something like that.

I mean you could try… If it asks for a hostname, just put a local hostname in. Or the IP address. Or set up a DNS entry on the router. And see if it works.

Or try something like RocketChat, or depending how your team’s workflow is, maybe you don’t want a messenger. But some (online) collaboration platform more focused on documents, like Nextcloud.
