You should have backups. Not hedge against 1 in 10 million error conditions.

if a partition isn't actively written to, it's less likely to suffer damage

The second one is a huge bother in desktops. I never not regretted trying it.

ok

The third one is a complete non-problem.

This is only a problem with OpenBSD. They never encourage using a huge single root partition, and never test it.

It have an asterisk, not a -

I think it is better to partition /usr (and /usr/local) too, for stability and security

Now that Arch is so easy to install with the Archscript

Trash. Not true arch user.

Switch to BSD instead, it is easy to use while being better in quality.

You can sue them if the work is not public domain or 0BSD, MIT no attrib,...

Years ago some Linux howtos or Linux distributions during their installation recommended to have several different partitions (I believe some of the BDSs like OpenBSD still offer such an option during installation)

There are advantages of having multiple partitions for multiple mount points.

OpenBSD can do partitioning for you, and it is not recommended to use a huge single root partition. If you can't do partitioning, use the default layout.

One advantage of that for /home is that you can have different mount options like noexec for preventing the execution of files inside your home directory which can be a good security measure.

If you never do development.

Anyone just having / and /home in separate partition are actually windows users, or not sysadmin.

Already happened in the EU, you must provide your fingerprint to get an ID

Yeah what the fuck is up with that?

You responded: "Yeah what the fuck is up with that?" when someone comment about EU doing the same thing. When EU do that, it is really normal and good and people benefit? But when China, or Viet Nam do that, they are violating human rights, being against democracy, etc...?!?!?!

Again, are you paid by CIA for saying that? If not, account for your "Yeah what the fuck is up with that?".

Kindly disconnect from tor and lets have a chat about it…

I currently don't need to be anonymous, but tor is not blocked (EVEN ADOPTED BY COCCOC, A BROWSER THAT PARTICIPATED IN GOVERNMENT'S ANTI-SCAM PROJECT) and I can turn on whenever I want.

If you dare to oppose the government, they’re taking you to the police station for questioning.

And that's the same for other government. Dirty CIA propaganda.

Most are the guy who want to drive when they are drunk.

Old people know about those who oppose the government. I don't believe you live in Vietnam.

My grandma (previously, a nurse) comment about people who oppose the government: "Cái bọn ấy thì cháu đừng dây vào chúng nó làm gì. Chúng nó ăn cơm nhà nước rồi lại quay ra nói xấu nhà nước."

There’s basically no press freedom and internet freedom

We still worry day and night that young people are being pro-Western and pro-Chinese. Are you still saying that we don't have internet freedom??

See the attitude of some people on voz (Điểm báo) whenever a police rescued a little girl.

There's absolutely no free speech and free press, since free speech and free press are unrestricted speech and press, under no law, people there can say whatever they want. Even american don't even have it, they just allow people to insult other by whatever sentence. Viet Nam is more restrictive: insulting others are not allowed.

Knowledgeable person actually understand the consequence of unrestricted freedom. They are educated. Not like anyone want to comment on other government's policy without actually living in it and understand it.

About internet freedom: we already have it for years. Before 2018, anyone can set up a social media site if they want, but now they will need to register for it. That's equivalent to the business law: if you want to set up a company, you must register what your company do.

They are better than those who cannot manage their own people.

Use Codeberg ;)

I love repo.or.cz since it is enough.

Do you know how can I get started with things around the kernel?

[-] scratchandgame@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago

I'm talking about what is the first, most important benefit of free software (or open source). The community claims the first and most important benefit is "to make sure there isn't malware in the software". In the post I told them why this is not the most important benefit and the most important benefit is to audit, fix bugs, harden it.

I use OpenBSD, and Alpine is the only Linux distro I can recommend :)

It is somewhat like FreeBSD (not having X by default), and they are both not friendly to newbies when compare to OpenBSD.

People should start with a free and sane default and gather knowledge, not start with a beautiful desktop environment (integrated graphical environment) and use browser and libreoffice and proprietary software on their device.
