This is what openSUSE Tumbleweed is designed to do, although config files in /home require manual setup to include. It allows you to completely rollback if necessary after a system upgrade, allowing you to use a bleeding edge distro without fear of having an unusuable system. If an upgrade goes bad, usual procedure is to roll back to the last btrfs snapshot and just wait for the fix (which usually comes in a couple days to a week, as Tumbleweed advances rather quickly).

openSUSE has a specific btrfs subvolume setup and grub/systemd-boot integration to enable this, which is not too common even today, so it really is a bit special in that you can have this functionality without excessive time spent setting it up manually.

Context?

An actual answer for the browser instead of just shitting on Brave would be IronFox (hardened Firefox), and the best place to get it would be the Accrescent app store.

But for real don't use Brave...

Saving this pasta 😂😂😂

Exactly. At the federal level the U.S. is an oligarchy completely controlled by the Epstein class.

Probably got the idea from the manosphere. That being said, actually sticking to that particular habit is something to be proud of, and is completely harmless... when you are that low, anything you can be proud of is a win.

Yes, the PR specifically calls out the laws as the reason for this change. The problem is BOTH the laws getting passed, and corporate interests complying in advance.

If the whole story was the addition of this change with no other context, I'd agree. But if you read the PR description you'll see its more than that. The laws in question are specifically called out. This suggests that whether or not the legal interpretation of compliance changes (the law could require more than just DOB entry, aka DOB verification with government ID), systemd is planning to comply rather than join the legal battle against these invasive requirements.

Seems like a horrible eagerness to comply in advance with equally horrible US state laws when this legal scenario is not even close to resolved.

Exactly. This is a massive overreach, and it is crazy that Poettering is even considering merging this.

Brother. You tried to run a repack that was likely developed and tested on Windows, and then got pissed when it didn't work. This is Linux, you downloaded it for free... there is no megacorp surveilling your system and trying to fix every single gaming edge case so that you stay happy while they shove ads in your face.

If you just want gaming and want to stick your head in the sand and stay completely unaware of how your OS works and what it is doing, absolutely stay on Windows. If you have the slightest care about your privacy, desire to learn about how a computer OS works, or are curious about free software, then join us... there are tons of people out there willing to help you.

And I'm sure there is a way to get that repack working... it may just take some research and actually asking questions in the community.

Bravo Michael for continuing to farm bullshit drama with clickbait headlines on the most inane topics like "how my DE handles pasting text"
