mostly anything on windows

that can be done too. tarballed software normally doesn’t have permissions attached I think

but also the way it puts file data one after the other can be beneficial for compression, especially if you can define the order of the files somehow

there is. if the updater gui integrates with packagekit and systemd, it can start an offline update that reboots your system and installs the updates while nothing else is running.

kind of like on windows, except that this is one of the things where windows made the right call. complex software does not handle it well if its program libraries and assets are being replaced by newer ones that the running version cannot understand.

its still kind of a new thing, not all distros make use of it yet, but Fedora does, and it’s not a Fedora custom solution but something that most distros can have.

automatic filesystem snapshots and rollback can be integrated to this too, and then bye bye to updates breaking the whole system.

I don’t think so. all user processes should be stopped in one way or another before the screen is turned off

monero does not, but it’s users do manually. at least not too long ago it was recommended in the community

but we do use self custody wallets, which is actually a good thing. and we do churn, because the anonymity set of the sender (right?) is pretty limited as of now. and churning is almost like mixing between wallets.

then your hashbangs are bad. isn’t their point to tell the kernel exactly which interpreter can process it correctly?

what did Monero do to prevent it?

not everybody can install custom roms, either for compatibility, app selfblocking, or tech literacy reasons, or that they can’t afford to tuse a possibly unstable system (stability often varies by device and update)

serverside checks neither on federated services, or anywhere where the user chooses their server

I do create a lot of duplicates as I move and transfer files between 3 laptops.

Consider using syncthing

for a privacy oriented OS you don’t need a very specific security chip that only a single pije of phones have. that’s maximalism.

Fairphone can do that too

and don’t forget that using encrypted messaging services is likely to be illegal soon in the EU

not everyone has nudes on their phones, not everyone will get to know that they are leaked, and afaik google hasn’t even leaked user images ever.

they. won’t. notice. it. they wouldn’t notice even if they were subjected to personalized pricing.

maybe flagship phones are different, but I don’t think I ever had such a device in my hands. I regularly help people with affordable phones, and as far as I can tell each had them preinstalled

you still have to trust them that they don’t save the plaintext email somewhere else before they run tbeir encryption.

and that’s what I do. I trust that they are doing it. what better can I do? the other option is to use a provider that 100% is not doing that, which does not seem to be better. or hosting it for myself, which maybe a small minority of people are capable to do it
