Yeah NC is way too much bloated and heavily unstable after some long term use. As an alternative for cloud storage I use ownCloud. The newer owncloudIS version needs a bit more maturing before it’s fully functional and less unstable for selfhosters, but the php version is fully functional and the native apps are awesome :).
While AIO is neat on paper, it’s most of the time buggy and not as good as native tools. Having all your tools bind together is a bad idea in my opinion… Having a hammer that’s also a screwdriver, a scissor… Leave them less functional as having them separated !
Yeah this takes more space and is less convenient, but the right tool for the right job is a principle that always works in the long term !
Rethinkdns is probably your best bet! Right now they are missing an important feature where It takes wireguard’s DNS configuration into account, making it obsolete for those who have private dns in a local environnement with an upstream dns !
Strange enough TLS 1.3 still doesn’t support signed ed25519 certificates :| P‐256, NIST P‐384 or NIST P‐521 curves are known to be “backdoored” or having deliberately chosen mathematical weakness. I’m not an expert and just a noob security/selfhoster enthusiast but I don’t want to depend on curves made by NSA or other spy agencies !
I also wondering if the EU isn’t going to implement something similar with all their new spying laws currently discussed…
Hello everyone - I have been wanting to ditch windows on my gaming pc for a while now, and since I have recently finished a large project, I now have the free time to switch. I am relatively comfortable with Debian having used it for a while on my web server as well as school laptop, but I am concerned about using it on my...
Thanks :) good to know I can switch between those two in KDE ! I need to test Plasma and xfce to see wich fits better my needs and has better suppport for my system !
I’m currently looking into xfce vs KDE plasma, something I need to pay attention to is a DE with x11 because nvidia hasn’t fully supported wayland ?
Am I right to consider it that way? Or do both support nvidia drivers?
I’m sorry, I only use debian as bare bone on my server and currently considering to switch my main desktop from windaube to linux and alot of informations on the web seem contradictory or incomplete :/
Thank you for your input :). While this add-on has more flexibility on what to keep in your browser, it only deletes them after they have entered your system. It’s actually not as useful as it sounds because your data is already exchanged with the server.
If you are interested you can read my too long edit to see what I meant and how to block specific cookie before they enter your system. Also on how to spoof your user agent and activate privacy.fingerprintingProtection in firefox.
This post was about browsers but my feelings when I wrote It was a more general “conclusion”. I only found out recently about some “hidden” privacy concerns with browsers (WebRTC leaking your real ip, fonts fingreprinting…) But when I found out about android’s default keyboard sending samples, IOT weaknesses, smart devices data hoarding… It really feels like a losing battle while being connected to the world…
Do not overthink they want to know about you everything.
That’s true, they probably already have everything they need… It’s not only about my personal data, and my example only points out to the web technology, but everywhere around us are some data hoarding devices that are either used to targeted ads, campaign, profiling, IA dataset feeding… whatever !
It feels like we already lost our right to privacy and how personal data, telemetry is used as a whole in our society…
Thank you very much for your enlighten answer :D !
Removing emacs-gtk itself will work as you expect
Yes that’s what I found out with apt show emacs-gtk, it shows all the dependencies but I found it quiet odd behavior (lack of knowledge).
I wasn’t aware of metapackages, something new to put into my knowledge database.
Edit: While writing my replay and searching through the web and my console, even though I wouldn’t have had understood it while reading it… It actually tells me in the description that emacs is a metapackage… Bad reading skills :/ sorry about that !
Description: GNU Emacs editor (metapackage) GNU Emacs is the extensible self-documenting text editor. This is a metapackage that will always depend on the latest recommended Emacs variant (currently emacs-gtk).
If you don’t mind I have a last question. Imagine I want to remove docker-ce, which depends on iptables among others, if I sudo apt remove --purge --autoremove docker-ce, this isn’t going to remove iptables and break my system right? Because it’s used by other packages, system… I guess, no?
I think a more general question would be how can I be sure I not going to fuck my system while removing packages? Maybe I’m to paranoïd and today it’s relatively safe to do so, compared to years ago??
I already checked with apt show emacs and the output clearly shows emacs-gtk as depends on. And while installing the emacs package with: sudo apt-get install emacs it installed a ~400Mo package and all dependencies.
So why doesn’t sudo apt remove --purge --autoremove emacs removes everything ? I thought this command would be the exact opposite of sudo apt install package-name
