And somehow every single time the problem was so easy to solve, but apparently crying about it is the better solution.

My guess is 2fa code apps. Why you ask? Because blizzard already did it. They use their own proprietary 2fa code generator app called battle net, so I have to use it. So after a few months/years of casually not using anything remotely connected with Mr. And Mrs. „Muttermilchknacker”

, I finally decided to try Overwatch 2 again, and when I tried to use my login app to confirm my login, I found myself logged out. And when I tried to log in again, I had to use the Authenticator, which I was logged out of, to use my authenticator, in order to log into the authenticator, in order to use the authenticator, in order to log into my authenticator (I could keep going like this forever)

As a Lifelong user of FOSS software, I thought you could just install any .ipa now like on android, and I was shocked to discover that just being able to install from Safari now changes nothing about how you install Apps. You still need to sign all packages with an Apple authorized Key to even be able to look at the App, and theres no way of Trusting other sources for Keys, like in SSL, Ssh, and general cryptography. This way, if I want to install anything for more than 7 days, I need a 99€/year Apple Subscription, together with my Full Name and Address.

So why the fuck did the EU just call it a day with this, since you still need a Apples consent to sign your App? If Apple dosent want your App on their Ecosystem, now instead of just removing it from the store they can just ban your Signature alltogether. Literally nothing has changed, apple still has as much control over your Devices as before, but now theres just this Sticker that says „now 30% more consumer friendly“ on the box.

And also, there is still no Official tutorial of how to install apps, and even in the Forum every single Thread about this gets closed with a generic „If you need Locally signed Apps for your Device, please buy this enterprise grade Management software for a billion bucks a month“. Nothing about installing ipas through Apple devices, nothing about signing an app, just the same bullshit.

so did it change anything at all, or is the Ecosystem still as locked down as before?

Ive just gone to update my flatpak. I now have to download 7 slightly different versions of nvidia drivers. 7 Fucking times the same Nvidia driver. 7. 7 Goddamn times.

And no, I dont want to hear your excuses for this. I dont care if it only downloads 370 Mbs instead of 371.

Recently I've played dead space and some other survival horror games like Alien Isolation, and just about every single time you see someone in there, they're somehow invincible. Like, the fuck, that fat idiot inside that VIP Area there has somehow managed to lock himself in that room for what, weeks? Months? And somehow never did any of the necromorphs even notice him? And that crazy scientist guy? He can just run around in the ship? And what about alien? The medic dude, like, there's a vent right in the room next to him. And he has a broken leg, so the alien can even smell his blood. Also, what about the marshal? Well, thats kinda fair game, he has an effective weapon after all.

What's the difference? No matter how hard I look, most of their websites just consist of them advertising that they are immutable.

For context: I habe a PC with an 8gb SSD and I somehow need to get an app on there that only has a flatpak release

But lets see the Positive side: Now the Nazis wont have to burn thousands of books, saving tons of co2 in their Plan to take over the world with propaganda. So, yay for the envoirment I guess

So, I am autistic, I dont really have friends except online, and i have a few other diagnoses like suspicion of schizophrenia and suspicion of psychosis. And, about once a year, I start walking down a hallway of insanity, ending in a big multiple day long paranoid attack- where I just lash our at someone and try to ruin their life because of some really insignificant thing. Last time I lashed out at someone because I misunderstood something, and I went down a paranoid spiral where I would try to ruin their life because I thought they wanted to ruin mine.

The time before I lashed out at someone and said that they were conspiring against me.

So, is there any way to prevent this? At least My therapist says I'm ok to go after the next few sessions. Also, I don't want medication or go to a clinic.

Arch is aimed at people who know their shit so they can build their own distro based on how they imagine their distro to be. It is not a good distro for beginners and non power users, no matter how often you try to make your own repository, and how many GUI installers you make for it. There's a good reason why there is no GUI installer in arch (aside from being able to load it into ram). That being that to use Arch, you need to have a basic understanding of the terminal. It is in no way hard to boot arch and type in archinstall. However, if you don't even know how to do that, your experience in whatever distro, no matter how arch based it is or not, will only last until you have a dependency error or some utter and total Arch bullshit® happens on your system and you have to run to the forums because you don't understand how a wiki works.

You want a bleeding edge distro? Use goddamn Opensuse Tumbleweed for all I care, it is on par with arch, and it has none of the arch stuff.

You have this one package that is only available on arch repos? Use goddamn flatpak and stop crying about flatpak being bloated, you probably don't even know what bloat means if you can't set up arch. And no, it dosent run worse. Those 0,0001 seconds don't matter.

You really want arch so you can be cool? Read the goddamn 50 page install guide and set it up, then we'll talk about those arch forks.

(Also, most arch forks that don't use arch repos break the aur, so you don't even have the one thing you want from arch)

If you think you have ever felt true fear, you havent tried Gentoo yet
