These YouTube channels not even aknowleging other operating systems than Windows like ThioJoe kinda annoy me

[-] JustADragon@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 weeks ago

the same with the apple statement of appleram being 2 times better than other ram because they copied a old version of one of the memory compression methods supported by Linux for years. Linux ram is even better.

Bootkitty?

However,
you can already patch your BIOS to become secure again! :)

All in all, Windows security is a joke compared to Linux's.

[-] kekmacska@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

bootkitty wasn't implemented ever and if you use GUID Partition Table and your bios is set to uefi without csm, it can't affect you, since Bootkitty embeds itself into the Master Boot Record and there exploits the LogoFail vulrenability (this was already patched btw) with as far as i remember, a self-extracting steganographical bitmap image for arbritary code execution to bypass Secure Boot with injecting face certifications to Moklist. Also, it only runs on select devices, far from all Linux systems are vulrenabe.

uh, you do know there are exploits in Linux right? Stop pretending that Linux is "virus free"

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.
