Have you tried sfc /scannow?

It’s Cannonical. They prefer implementing everything themselves fast, rather than developing a more sustainable project with the rest of the community over a longer timescale. When they do that, there will be very little buy-in from the wider community.

Others could technically implement another snap store for their own distro, but they’d have to build a lot of the backend that Cannonical didn’t release. It’s easier to use Flatpak or AppImage or whatever rather than hitch themselves onto Cannonicals’s homegrown solution that might get abandoned down the line like Mir or Ubuntu Touch.

It’s Cannonical. They prefer implementing everything themselves fast, rather than developing a more sustainable project with the rest of the community over a longer timescale. It makes sense that when they do that, there will be very little buy-in from the wider community. Much like Unity and Mir.

As you say - why would others put time into the less supported system? Better alternatives exist. If Canonical want their own software ecosystem, they’ll have to maintain it themselves. Which, based on Mir and Ubuntu Touch, they don’t have a good track record of.

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. It makes perfect sense that Cannonical made it’s own proprietary package ecosystem and while technically anyone can build their own snap store, ain’t nobody got time for that.

curl shit | sudo bash is just so convenient.

When in doubt - C4!

I don’t think that’s what ‘market share’ is trying to represent, but without any context - yeah. You can lump in android phones and set-top boxes and signage and industrial controllers while you’re at it.

Is OP adding the Android share to Linux? That would certainly do it.

• Android (all platforms): 45.19%

Only makes sense if you know their definition of ‘Linux’ though.

I think you’d only have to read it once, then you should be able to just filter it out next time you see it.

Except PGP is a substring of the ‘technically correct’ term. It’s like someone saying you’re playing on your Nintendo - “Um, actually it’s a Nintendo 64.”

You fraud.

I’d have thought the cloud side would be pretty easy to script over. Presumably the images aren’t encrypted from the host filesystem so just ensure each VM is off, mount its image, delete the offending files, unmount the image and start the VM back up. Check it works for a few test machines then let it rip on the whole fleet.

It’s not that clear cut a problem. There seems to be two elements; the kernel driver had a memory safety bug; and a definitions file was deployed incorrectly, triggering the bug. The kernel driver definitely deserves a lot of scrutiny and static analysis should have told them this bug existed. The live updates are a bit different since this is a real-time response system. If malware starts actively exploiting a software vulnerability, they can’t wait for distribution maintainers to package their mitigation - they have to be deployed ASAP. They certainly should roll-out definitions progressively and monitor for anything anomalous but it has to be quick or the malware could beat them to it.

This is more a code safety issue than CI/CD strategy. The bug was in the driver all along, but it had never been triggered before so it passed the tests and got rolled out to everyone. Critical code like this ought to be written in memory safe languages like Rust.

I’d unsubscribe from [email protected] for a start.

I’m pretty sure this update didn’t get pushed to linux endpoints, but sure, linux machines running the CrowdStrike driver are probably vulnerable to panicking on malformed config files. There are a lot of weirdos claiming this is a uniquely Windows issue.

Wherefore art thou Gnomeo?

Fulfills the AI quota 👍

Is there any reason to keep the existing set-up? If it’s just one drive, you could replace it with another and install Alma or something fresh. Then you could copy over whatever config the old system had to get up and running again. You could swap to the old drive if you needed to revert. If you have a spare machine, you could stand up the fresh setup side-by-side with the old one before swapping over.

I find it odd, because venv is a “Suggested package”, actually. It isn’t in the list of new packages that will be installed with python3 by default.

I think the next major release of apt is supposed to be easier to read. Unless Debian neuter it.
