My router will still block all ports not explicitly allowed for the hosts regardless of protocol, it’s a firewall after all and not just NAT. Just because the host addressable doesn’t mean its ports are reachable.

Testing is actually mandatory, what’s not mandatory though is to do it before deploying.

what’s feurking

An optional step in the développement process

Emacs? When there’s ed? Talk about bloat…

I mean… it’s not like her sketch is too far off… it’s him they botched

Could be the kernel itself

Wouldn’t make sense to me because the thread says GNU/Linux and others, though this could relate to Android or distros not using any GNU.

gnupg

Usually not exposed to the network though, but it’s generally a mess so wouldn’t be too surprising

Another candidate I have in mind is ntpd, but again that is usually not easily accessible from outside and not used everywhere, as stuff like systemd-timesyncd exists.

Just want to stress that I’m not sure about it being OpenSSH, it was more supposed to be a fun guess than a certain prediction

Since this affects Linux and others, I’m guessing this is about OpenSSH. But I’m not very certain. Just can’t think of another candidate.

But holy sh, if your software has been running on everything for the last 20 years

This doesn’t sound like glibc as someone in the thread guessed.

No, the Russians already provided the image with the lie

It actually works. I read over it

Edit: interestingly, that link is now gone

Note: pressing continue doesn’t solve it, the instructions that follow don’t work because my adblock is DNS-based at system level.

I, a systems guy, have a better time learning go than nix packages.

Go is a simple and elegant imperative language (that does come with its downsides); Nix the DSL is a functional language which requires a different way of thinking. Systems usually are operated imperatively, so it’s normal that you’d find it easier.

It’s not an easy language at all and one might ask if another one wouldn’t do the job better, which is what Guix System kind of explores, but its (nix) design goals make a lot of sense.

NTSYNC is one example, I don’t know what the current progress is https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240124004028.16826-1-zfigura@codeweavers.com/

It was supposed to be in 6.10, I don’t know if that actually happened

For most network share I use /mnt/$server.

I use /mnt/$proto/$server, though that level of organization was probably overkill. Whatever…

I do /volumX for additional hard drives.

A good first approximation.

So where in this setup would you mount a network share? Or am additional hard drive for storage? The latter is neither removable nor temporary. Also /run is quite more than what this makes it seem (e.g. user mounts can be located there), there is practically only one system path for executables (/usr/bin)…

Not saying that the graphic is inherently wrong or bad, but one shouldn’t think it’s the end all be all.

You hit one of my weak spots.

Person puts text on an image “look everyone, I made a meme!”

I’ve accepted that this fight is lost

Lemmys memes are alright if a bit too much pro-linus/bash-windows

Your chance to go against the flow!

Regardless of quality of each system, it’s understandable that Lemmy’s userbase would lean more towards Linux as the reasons for using both instead of the dominant alternative are similar. Also Linux works really well for most stuff you’d do on Windows compared to 20 years ago.

But yeah it becomes somewhat annoying when people base a part of their identity on it. Then again, this is always true, regardless of topic at hand.

Probably didn’t even read it

The title says “bcachefs-tools”, the linked kernel thread that the comment referred to was about the bcachefs kernel part and did not touch the bcachefs userspace tools. Debian says they can’t package with these pinned dependencies and explains why. Kent says relaxing dependencies breaks the programs.
