        As a state you wouldn’t have to worry about such things.

            “Rigg” typically refers to a ridge or a strip of land, often in agricultural contexts, while “rig” can mean to fit out with equipment or to arrange something, sometimes in a dishonest way. Both terms have distinct meanings and usages in English.

            Is yours a Diana Rigg?

              If you had converted to a private Linux DVR you wouldn’t have these problems.

                    This is why only those qualified to make OFFICIAL posts should be creating new threads. Some of you just can’t handle the responsibility.

                      I just loaded Windows 11 on the new PC I built and the setup was a pain but it works well.

                      I’m done with the Linux Mint I’ve been trying for a few months. That was a huge pain trying to get vendor software to run or a few id the video and pic editing programs to work right. No video? Need the codec Pakistan, not that one, try the other three.

                      Installing a small game program and ran out of memory. 32 gig of ram and 200 gig of free space on the SSD is not enough? Fuggit

                              Linux is probably going to get 4% desktop market share this year because of Microsoft’s shit-fuckery.

                                Oh they’ve just begun. Master plan is to lock out Linux on commodity hardware because of ‘security concerns’.

                                  How much you wanna bet that those “security concerns” would vanish if Linus would just give the NSA the backdoor that teh g’Dub demanded of him?

                                    Linux isn’t inherently super secure so if I were NSA I wouldn’t spend political capital or highlight efforts that direction. EU will just spank any of that, Linux forks into secure versions, opens it up more to China/Russia, not worth it.

                                        No I’m saying the NSA shouldn’t bother. Unless they want to talk up Linux as secure.

                                          Speaking of the NSA and Linux security, they designed “SELinux” which most distros I’ve used recently enable by default. I deliberately don’t install it because it’s a PITA with the restrictions it puts on your system. Well, it’s a PITA to work out what the solution is when it won’t let your container recognize some service on the host. I have a lot of other security mitigations in place and I do too much screwing around with experimentation to let it slow me down. I’m down with it being installed by default for most users though.


                                          The NSA Security-enhanced Linux Team describes NSA SELinux as[5] a set of patches to the Linux kernel and utilities to provide a strong, flexible, mandatory access control (MAC) architecture into the major subsystems of the kernel. It provides an enhanced mechanism to enforce the separation of information based on confidentiality and integrity requirements, which allows threats of tampering, and bypassing of application security mechanisms, to be addressed and enables the confinement of damage that can be caused by malicious or flawed applications. It includes a set of sample security policy configuration files designed to meet common, general-purpose security goals.

                                            So why not use an old Linux “distro” (if that is the right word) from some time back? Something that will run a basic browser (like DDG), OpenOffice, and video DLs?
