apt and dnf are bad in different ways, but apt at least has an actually decent package selection ui (aptitude)

80% of hostility towards systemd could have been avoided if they’d left dns alone and got someone competent to design the journalctl cli (lennart presumably: “ok, so we’re going to force people to use one command to view logs instead of just reading files with whatever. what is the most important thing to show them? oh yeah, the fqdn of the system they’re running the command on, that deserves far more screen prominence than boring poo poo like ‘the actual log messages’. truncate those, they can scroll right if they care about nerd stuff.”)

I don’t remember seeing fully qualified domain names before journalctl, but more to the point nobody read traditional syslogs with less -S

NihilCredo posted:poe's law in full effect - i cannot tell if that "isn't that easy?" is ironic or not, because I could see a vim user genuinely believing that or indeed just select a region and push a button to comment it out, except it also works when you’re editing things like html that don’t have line comments note that in this case “halfway modern text editor” includes emacs too. (and probably vim, but nobody knows what the button is in vim)

… the whole point of giving it a different name is that it guarantees that they cannot possibly break any existing sdl2 software even by accident, why are you so angry about the way they are accomplishing this

shackleford posted:nah the proper GNU/Linux way to accomplish what you're talking about is never bumping the SONAME and adding fine grained symbol versioning information to newly added symbols and then not breaking the API exposed in the headers. this is how glibc works and why you can compile and link something against an old rear end libc.so.6 and it will run against a modern libc.so.6 except that your old thing also links against libncurses5 and your new linux has libncurses6 and it’s literally impossible to install libncurses5 alongside it because they require their data files to be in the same location but use different incompatible binary data formats (and nothing even uses the extra precision in the version 6 files, they increased some field sizes and broke compatibility entirely pointlessly because all the values anyone has ever wanted or will ever want can fit perfectly well in the old fields) … I love linux

Beeftweeter posted:so hang on a sec, if your distro doesn't use systemd then the backdoor doesn't work? or is redhat's description of the sshd backdoor just tailored to fedora + systemd because it's red hat? we know how to trigger the backdoor in apt/yum-based linux distros with systemd, so we know those are vulnerable in specific circumstances. we don’t know yet whether other distros might be vulnerable with different trigger conditions. they may well be safe, but it would be foolish to assume that. the only sensible move is to patch everything this dude has ever touched.
