How far does it need to go to be a major incident?

I’m going to laugh in Java, where this has always been possible and reliable. Not like ai reliable, but expert reliable. Because of static types.

I think I’m running Wayland on my mint today. Not that I ever cared, and my card is NVIDIA and i don’t remember spending much time instaling its drivers

I came in for the jokes but all I found was helpful responses. Did I get the Nazi virus from Reddit?

Well they’re clearly not using Arch. Btw.

Are you saying this is a Borg from the original enterprise from Kirk? Or do we have to go back further 2 centuries to the space shuttle Enterprise, the one from 1980’s NASA?

I’m not super familiar with Apple as I am with Android so take what I talk about iOS with a grain of salt, and Macos with a shovel of salt.

Android permission model is a bag of different layers, and some specific permissions have shifted to more strict layers over the years. For example, in the beginning all apps had a private space that other normal apps could never get into, and public space that everyone would be able to read and write provided they made such “request” at download time. For some time after that I think they moved it to next level, so you " requested" that both at download time AND with a pop up to the user. Currently you have to do all that AND not be a normal app and fill some forms and Google has to agree with you.

Camera, microphone and GPS has been for a long time in the middle tier of requesting at download time and with pop up, for both Android and iOS. But I think not on Mac os, and certainly not on Linux, with the exception of browsers, that have their own security models rolled up on top of whatever their os imposes, since they execute code from total strangers every time you open a page for the first time.

Some permissions like send and receive Internet data are still in the lightest tier, only asked at download time, for both Android and iOS.

I recently wanted to put my Linux obsidian without Internet access, and had to learn how to do that with a script that calls bwrap that in its turn calls obsidian. I wasn’t comfortable otherwise, because I wanted the freedom to run as many community plugins as I wanted, and this is strangers javascript code running in my machine, and I didn’t want it accessing random folders and uploading things.

If I ran vscode I’d do the same, since I’m not familiar with the vetting process for its plugins. Same for gimp, but I never needed plugins in it.

That’s great bit of history

It may be useful for people reading if you could add headers about when each decade starts, since you have many of them there

Their only mistake is believing they make a positive change lol

I’m born and raised in South America. First time I went into first world and saw the price of milk, as a tourist, with my South American salary, I freaked out because I couldn’t afford it.

Tell me op never did c++ without telling me op never did c++

Freaking hell, are all boomers that spoiled because of this single fact?

Ha I never thought of CEOs this way but now so many things make sense. Especially things being exactly as they were when CEOs change, but with a mountain of meaningless changes that never do any good.

Not that I ever thought they know what they were doing, but now I get what they’re used for.

Well if you’re that deep into losses, spending 10M in marketing goes a long way.

Sure

I still laughed. And I’ll share.

Yep, the Firefox thing is weird. I’d run a memory test . Does this laptop do the same thing with Windows?

Also op mentions 20 years, were your other experiences like this?

Who’s cyan? What’s going on?

This is the way

Groovy that’s someone I haven’t heard about in like 10 years

My pet project uses it, but no one else does
