Hey, I’ve been hearing a LOT about the xz backdoor. Crazy story, but rather than reading 10 different articles about it from 3 days ago when the story was quite new, does anybody know a high quality write-up that has all the juicy details and facts? I really like in-depth guides that cover every aspect of the story....
A friend of mine has 2 Windows Laptops, where in the process of moving from an old 2TB storage laptop to a newer 256GB storage laptop, moving files manually (somehow, dont ask me)....
Yes the data was lost on Windows, but I prefer Linux a lot as all good tools seem to be linux only anyways haha. But will remember recuva as a last option.
The small drive is nearly empty, just has a few files, those where deleted. The drive is now unuses, used testdisk, photorec, recuva now scalpel to get anything from it.

Cannabinoide und Terpene sind fettlöslich. Am effektivsten ist es aber, nicht Fett zu nehmen, sondern ein Lösungsmittel wie Isopropanol. Das ist nicht trinkbar aber nicht vergällt wie Ethanol (Alkohol) und von daher 99,999% rein und billig.
Also kleinmachen, in Propanol liegen lassen für paar Tage, durch einen Kaffefilter Abkippen in Öl deiner Wahl, und dann zusammen unter Rühren das Propanol verdampfen lassen bei bis zu 100°C.
Das ganze kann man dann nochmal wiederholen, und man hat sicher das meiste extrahiert.
This. Androids permission toggles combine multiple ones. GrapheneOS actually adds more of these toggles, as some things like Network and various sensor permissions are always on (wtf Android). But even those are combined toggles.
You can also display more permissions on the permission page, top right.
I understand that no Operating System is 100% safe. Although this backdoor is likely only affects certain Linux desktop users, particularly those running unstable Debian or testing builds of Fedora (like versions 40 or 41), **Could this be a sign that antivirus software should be more widely used on Linux desktops? ** ( I know...
We dont live in such a perfect world. Linux has a small marketshare for non-server software, so packaging is done by your distro.
You would need to have user-facing settings for Apparmor or SELinux to replicate what already exists with Flatpak.
Principle of least privilege.
Maybe you prefer native packages, but bubblejail or SELinux confined users are complicated as hell and both are pre-alpha in my experience.
So yes you add bloat, dependencies etc. But you also add stability, a small core system, take load of OS developers and unify the packaging efforts so that it is done by developers not packagers.
This reduces complexity a lot, as the underlying system is not as important anymore, and you can just use whatever you want. Software is separated from the OS.
I chose Debian 12 as a solid and stable base. Which of these shipped DEs is the best for this particular laptop series and Windows 10 like user experience?...
