if you are looking for a HURD based stable OS you are a bit out of luck.

Probably wiping process control code from the systems that contain tons of fiddly hard to find constants and other information.
Based on the comments it appears the prompt doesn’t really even fully work. It mainly seems to be something to laugh at while despairing over the writer’s nonexistant command of logic.
I’m a bit concerned what happens when Gabe Newell dies
The stabbing rate in the UK for example is lower than it is in the US per capita. So the idea knives replace guns doesn’t really seem to hold
The thing is the whole c program is unsafe. In rust individual parts are marked unsafe. This means auditing should be easier. Also being always on your toes isn’t really viable. Breaking down the program into safe vs unsafe is probably an improvment
In cases where bugs have been counted they tended to make up the majority of vulnerabilities. Chrome, Firefox, and Windows reported that around 70% of security vulnerabilites were memory corruption. Yes a subset, but the majority of the worst subset.
The simple solution here is to record to flash when wifi dies. Yes wired stuff is nice but half of these are consumer installed.
Scam Altman Freid strikes again
I’ve had the reverse. I started using arch because debian didn’t have my wifi driver yet.
The whole idea behind Manjero’s update scheme is just generally a landmine. LTS releases typically work by maintaining a older branch that gets updates. In this way you delay features not patches. If you run Firefox on such a system it will be Firefox LTS with this week’s patches (this is kinda important for security reasons). Manjaro doesn’t do this instead it just holds everything back artificially one or two weeks.
Bluntly doing this with a browser or other security critical software should be a crime.
Manjero just generally feels very amaturish and its history of taking down Arch’s servers is not helping here.
It’s worth pointing out here that this script was probably written by a human.

From the perspective of a computer engineer SSDs are painfully slow. Waiting for data on disk is slow enough that it is typically done by asking the OS for the data and having the OS schedule another process onto the CPU while it waits. RAM is also slow although not nearly as slow. Ideally you want your data in the L1 cache which is fast enough to minimally stall the CPU. The L2 and L3 caches are slower but larger and more likely to have the data you want. If the caches are empty and you have to read RAM your CPU will either do a lot of speculative execution or more likely stall.
Speculative execution on CPUs is a desperate attempt to deal with the fact that all memory access is slow by just continuing through the code as if you know what is in memory. If the speculative execution is wrong a lot of work gets thrown out (hopefully nothing unsound happens) and the delay is more noticable.
Bluntly an SSD only system would probably be an order of magnitude slower. I’m also not sure switching to a new process (or even thread) to load from SSD would be viable without RAM as it would likely invalidate a lot of cache triggering more loads.
So what I am hearing is that Greg Abbot is preventing the border patrol from detaining migrants.
Anti virtualization is sometimes used in copy protection. Altering virtualization to avoid those checks might be circumvention under DMCA.
In new games sure. I was referring to old titles
Getting anti-cheat that technically already works enabled on Linux has been a lot of work and Epic still won’t enable it. Piracy protection systems will also be an issue. Most EA games inspect your CPU to see if they like it on startup (I think this is using vmprotect and some non-OS x86 calls but don’t quote me on that). These kinds on anti virtualization checks are really common (not just in games ProctorU and lock down browser do them too). I don’t think valve running an open virtualization layer will be well received by companies and they will probably ban it from running games. MMOs (due to botting) and anything with anticheat will look particularly askance at this. I also suspect Valve won’t want to try hiding the VM signatures as it borders on violating DMCA.
Newer games will probably get ported if a large part of the market buys into ARM. Unity stuff might get re-released as it is .net if the publishers can be bothered. Minecraft java edition will also always love you (the launcher might not though).
The main advantage of ARM right now is that there are low power cores available. The actual instruction set is unrelated to this advantage. If Intel or AMD put more serious effort into power efficiency most of the advantages go out the window.
As for instruction set changes impacting what software you can run I think that is still a big issue. Yes porting to ARM is straitforward in more modern programming environments but most software actively developed at the moment has a lot of old cruft that won’t easily port if the engineers can even be convinced to touch it. Most businesses are dependent on old software not all of which is still maintained. Most gamers are even more tied to old software that is not going to get ported and often has annoying anti-virtualization checks (see games breaking on systems with enabled intel e-cores).
I am not sure how large the modern non gaming personal pc market is (tablets, phones, works computers, and chromebooks probably took a chunk out of it) but that could be in play.
Trilium is great. It has a copy of excalidraw with history which is nice. You can also automate things inside of it with scripting
That has nothing to do with the bill which hasn’t passed. this feels like people blaming the New Green Deal for things.
