What a kickass software.

I love Rust, but no_std is an entirely different realm. Normally, no_std is a sensible requirement for embedded systems, but running on a full OS, being limited to no_std and a niche C library feels pretty bad and pointless to me.

rust is the current new kid on the block and there's always a hobbyist or 2 around to give it a try.

The "Rust support" is kind of worthless though. It's forced no_std and you're limited to a C core library made specifically for systemd. I don't see why any Rust dev would take this as an invitation to contribute to systemd.

On personal devices I prefer run0, but idk if it can handle complex configurations yet

The article argues it has also made a more insecure design choice then it comes to patterns/wildcards in sudoers-files

The Rust sudo has apparently opted to keep the single most dangerous wildcard while disallowing all of the wildcards that allow one to be narrow and specific about what you're allowing, and it buries this at the end of a section that devotes a bunch of words to describing functionality it doesn't have and doesn't support, with absolutely nothing else in that section to say this (either up front or in the descriptions of how all the wildcards would work if sudo-rs supported them, which it doesn't).

I'm getting 403'd, so I can't read it, but sudo-rs is not compatible with the original sudo by design because they are intentionally omitting insecure options. The original creature of sudo supports the Rust rewrite.

Well, fuck. This is a way to learn that Vagrant cloud is dying. Although incus images offer every type of Linux there for me to install easily, Vagrant also provided premade boxes for Windows or other BSD operating systems. I'm probably going to miss that unless someone comes up with an alternative.

For projects, Forgejo has a Vagrant package registry so projects using Forgejo might find it easy to migrate to that.

Neat!

There are other init system other then sys V and systemD

Systemd is such a bundle of hot garbage.

Can't argue with options, especially if the maintenance isnt taking away any resources from the main KDE dev team.

But legacy support is nice, Wayland changed a lot and breaks a couple workflows still, like a lot of accessibility software.

by init system did they mean sysv-init

systemd is just better. no reason to regress

Of all things, why would anyone want to keep x11 alive?

For those who want to know why this policy:

By using generative AI agents, you cannot guarantee that you have the full legal rights required to submit the code generated by an AI. We require you use the DCO ownership sign-off, which you cannot do with generative AI agents trained on third-party code.

Use of AI in other capacity (search, discussion, &c) remains fine.

Please do not submit such pull-requests to this project. Thanks!

DCO is Developer Certificate of origin. From Linux Foundation. More here: https://developercertificate.org/

Because LLMs are not AI.

That's awesome. I'm really rooting for Taler to take off and become ubiquitous.

Lol, this is pretty funny.

@dessalines@lemmy.ml Dude, get a load of this!

generated code by unethical LLM is a tangible and good reason, better than no be tracked on the origin because at the end you can circunvent the issue with another tools.

There is no better option than ublock origin when it comes to adblocking extensions. I genuinely believe this is a psyop at this point, likely purveyed by the likes of Google (Look at them pointing out that Searxng is bad!). You will be full on releasing all of your data to them without anything to stymie the flow. Again, there are no other fucking options. Your options are, what, running very out of date software from pre-2019? This alone has glaring security risks.

What are you planning to do? Genuinely, this list is just a list of complaints. There are next to no real solutions on the list. In fact, the only solution provided by this list for browsing the internet, a basic task is to run BSD with fucking NetSurf because Linux is now out of the question. Netsurf is essentially deprecated, it hasn't been updated since 2023. It doesn't even containerize itself! It barely has tabs! It doesn't have adblock! To adblock you would have to do something like a pihole which checks notes would also use the same lists generated by LLMs from uBlock Origin. Even a hosts file on BSD would still require this. To securely run it, you would need to have BSD, find a non-ai VM software compatible with BSD (of which none are listed) and load NetSurf in the VM. Even then, your setup will be so ridiculously unusual that you would be instantly tracked by any and all services. You would also likely need to clear the VM each time you run it and avoid opening more than one window for NetSurf to avoid cross process contamination from how dead Netsurf's security development is. And this is ignoring that you need to follow the list to a T for the nebulous benefit of avoiding AI development, many programming languages and filesystems are dead in the water. I don't even know if its possible to assemble the BSD voltron necessary to be fully anti-AI, the most reasonable option is to make yourself a giant target by running very out of date programs from the pre-AI era and on old hardware.

It's also rich that this list is hosted on Codeberg which almost certainly hosts projects and filesystems that are not ordained by the list. And of course, you posted this on Lemmy, which is also considered to be slop.

This "ethics" is pure liberalism and idealism. You do not live in reality!

generated code by unethical LLM is a tangible and good reason, better than no be tracked on the origin because at the end you can circunvent the issue with another tools.

It's patently absurd to boycott this list. Ublock origin for example. You are making yourself very insecure for essentially no tangible reason. Corporate tracking would identify you easily. You'd be better off swearing off computers altogether. Go look at the code and pick out an actual real reason to not use it rather than pure idealism.

They’re saying not yet - https://floss.social/@forgejo/117450533397721524

Attention: We currently advise against upgrading to Forgejo 17.0.0. An issue is currently being investigated that prevents pushing, merging, or other code operations in some cases. If you haven’t updated yet, please wait until the issue has been investigated more thoroughly, if possible.

This should merge with the other one. Or contributions should flow both ways.

Either way, I'm going to recommend the software I use for writing for inclusion based on their AI policy here: https://ellipsus.com/generative-ai

They're a Google Docs alternative with a freemium business model. Important features offered for free with some nice bonuses if you pay. The pay options are interesting: $100 gets you a lifetime license, $60 a year or $6 a month gets you a lifetime license and it's yours after 2 years of payments ($120 or $144). As in, it's a subscription but a timed one. I pay monthly but after 2 years they'll stop charging me. I'm doing it that way because one, I won't miss $6 a month taken out right after I get paid and two, I believe in their cause and position on AI and their business model.
