What are you referring to when you say basic brute force protection?

Ah, a fellow bread bro

Do you have kids? “Because I said so” doesn’t usually come out of nowhere. It’s a response of frustration, usually because that conversation has been had multiple times already.

Judging from the screen behind her yes, the progress made is both useless and insignificant.

That’s like saying you’ve hit 20% less people with your car this year. I suppose that’s technically an improvement but the goal is a lot more significant than that.

Yeah but all the other people drove off

What am I missing? As far as I can tell this is a great example of several groups of people successfully outrunning a fire.

Russia can’t even handle Ukraine. What are they going to do against the rest of NATO, even without the US?

I’m not an expert but I have a decent set up going. If you think it would be helpful shoot me a DM and I’ll find a way to show you what I’ve got set up and give any tips I can. It sounds like I started in a similar position to you and I’d be happy to share what I’ve learned so far.

Edit: anyone else reading this is welcome to do the same.

Fake and gay. There’s no sun

Sure, but my point was that someone new to Linux can only answer that question with “what the fuck are those”

I appreciate the effort put into this but if answering yes to “are you new to Linux?” leads to the follow up question “apt or rpm?” then there’s a problem.

Yeah paid software babies users, often to the point of being annoying. FOSS assumes you can troubleshoot complex issues effectively. There’s a happy medium somewhere in there but like you said, it’s tough to get there with a limited volunteer dev team.

In my experience most of them are pretty easy to set up with basic computer skills and a look at the documentation. There are two big problems with that though.

1. Basic computer skills aren’t as common as you would think.

2. FOSS documentation isn’t written for people without those skills.

That leads to a lot of issues that aren’t terribly complicated to solve but would be showstoppers for regular users. I would not consider myself a high level user but I’ve managed to get quite a few applications up and running with nothing but time and a willingness to be frustrated. The few people I’ve gone into details with about those applications had no clue what I was talking about. Mostly because they would never tolerate the frustration required to get past the initial setup and have therefore never learned how to do any of it.

Kids can pee a lot and there’s only so much liquid you can absorb with a reasonable amount of material. Seems like a valid use of that phrase to me

Wasn’t broccoli-top enough

I agree, Brian Thompson should never have been allowed to murder so many people with his psychopathic level of greed.

I’m not sure what conversation you think is happening but it has been my experience that everyone is talking about the thing you’re saying no one is talking about.

Careful, you’re very close to acknowledging that men have problems of their own and we don’t do that. That’s the patriarchy talking.

I really like that the link at the bottom of the page says “check out more stuff you should be using” but that URL takes you to a page where the curl article is the only link.

“more coming soon. Or not. I don’t owe you shit”

A majestic site indeed. Bravo sir.
