Why wouldn’t this apply?

One day in the future the later version of sudo would become available…?

As far as mitigation is concerned, the only thing you need to do is to confirm that your system’s sudo version is at least version 1.9.17p1 or later, which can be done with the command sudo -V. If your version is older than 1.9.17p1, update immediately.

I guess this is mainly targeted at Universities and organisations that mirror repos?

They’re the kinda place (I presume) that would be able to support this…

Is that the same i as the squareroot of -1?

If you’re able to, use GeoIP ranges to only allow access from the countries you want.

That immediately limits a lot of everything

Then - again if you’re able to - use a block list that covers known scrapers in case they’re in your country.

I use pfBlockerNG on my pfSense firewall for exactly this.

I think they meant they’re not a fan of Windows and having to update those programs individually…

Not brush, but flexible gromit strips will do the edge protection bit.

Then, dunno, postbox / door draught excluder brushes?

Ah, Ok, yeah Arch on ARM is struggling at the moment

I have / had some Ras Pis on it, but they wrapped up … Pi0? a while back, so had to look at Raspbian (or whatever it’s called now)… I’d not considered Gentoo for them… hmmm

Maybe I’ll check that out

Thanks

Interested in why you went back to Gentoo after Arch.

I use Arch (btw) and tried Gentoo back in the day, but it’s always in the back of my mind that compiling source could be “better”…?

I believe some manufacturers allow end users to claim the license cost back.

Do check the manufacturer’s T’s & C’s - you might need Windows if returning for hardware issues.

I take a full disk image of a new computer before powering it up, so that I can restore it exactly as it was when purchased.

Take a backup and go for it.

Personally, I ditched OMV for standard Arch Linux and just added the packages I wanted…

It was a weird mix of driving beat out cars / vans around farm fields (some of it during summer jobs… fantastic), gaming, walking / biking, then driving places with my friends and missing out on canabis… mostly good times

Stranger Things brought back a lot of memories for me, albeit without all the weird stuff.

Mint is the best apparently

I use Arch btw

Well, depends on what you mean by “better”:

Personally, I think it’s the best advertising point of these devices - “effortlessly” making your phone fully charged again.

That single (non-verbal) action has made more people reconsider their choice of phone than anything else.

This was great… great find and genius idea.

Yeah, I do get it - I pulled a (single) photo off my phone recently and it took “a second” (ie slurp of coffee), which - to me - is fine.

But, yeah, if I was browsing them all and copying loads… I get your point.

Which is exactly what I recently did with my 3+… all charging issues now solved and I didn’t have to spend days reconfiguring a new phone to how I like it
