  • Das kann doch gar nicht sein, nur unter Windows gibt es Ordner, woanders herrscht Unordnung und das nennt sich dann Verzeichnis und zsh unter Windows ist ja wohl lächerlich, da gibt es doch die Windows PowersHell!1!

  • Ab ins Hörnle Gefängnis mit dir!

  • I think I understand why you are offended by this sentence and I'm with you on the benefits of user freedom.

    For the first part, yes, technically only the bootloader has to be signed, after that the bootloader is trusted and should do "the right thing".

    What I meant was that manually entering the BIOS after an upgrade of the thing you want to boot into (e.g. grub) is not an option for computers that you can't easily access physically, especially in large numbers and located somewhere other than your home. IMHO the system is not "silly", but works well in these scenarios. I agree, that it is not designed to be convenient for end users.

  • But this breaks automatic updates without entering the BIOS and is just not feasible except for the PC on your desk at home.

  • As almost always the answer is "it depends".

    From a security perspective you want to make sure that what your system boots is trusted and not tampered with by a third party. If your threat model includes people with physical access or malicious software (root kits) manipulating your operating system, then secure boot can help mitigating if you set it up correctly.

    If that's none of your concern, then you probably shouldn't bother with it.

  • I know you explicitly said I shouldn't do that, but just to spite you, I redoubled my donation. Thank you for all your hard work!

  • Ja, Trump ist schlimm, aber in meinen Augen ist das dennoch ein sehr schlüpfriger Abhang in Richtung Relativierung der Naziverbrechen.

    Aber vielleicht ist das auch nur der Versuch, Goodwins Law umzukehren und die Diskussion mit einem Nazivergleich zu starten?

  • Ja, SchwarzStein macht vielleicht wieder das SchwarzGeld.

  • Cool, aber warum ift da überall ein Endungs-S? So kann ich gar nicht richtig lifpeln, wenn ich das lefe.

  • Yes, you're right, of course.

    942 is roughly 63% of 1500 and an increase of 558 is 558/942 ~= 0,59 = 59% while 558/1500 ~= 37%.

  • cattle populations grew from 942 million to 1.5 billion globally – a roughly 63% increase.

    No, that's roughly a 47% increase.

    Lol, I can't math either. Should be 36%, which is still (too) much.

  • Inkarnate works great and has a lot of usable styles and assets.

  • Vor kurzem bin ich dazu übergegangen, es GNU/Linux zu nennen.

  • 😱

    Darf ich stattdessen lieber ein Oracle-Linux oder vielleicht ein Clear Linux oder zumindest ein älteres Ubuntu? Nur eins und Secure-Boot schalte ich ab und Ich logg mich auch nicht als root ein, Ehrenwort.

  • Start me up!
