You could probably have something like a pihole between your web traffic and VPN.

I’ve been on both sides I still tell people and inquire about it when I spot it in the wild.

There’s a download option in the header. From there you just choose a mirror to download it from.

The one that tells you what you can do and how to fix things if you messed up. It’s a DIY distro.

Arch generally works (based on the 3 machines I’ve tried it on) unless you change something and if you messed something up you can always roll it back if you’re smart enough to have planned ahead and didn’t wipe your backup.

Also it’s a Linux community this was posted to.

Yes it is an invasion of privacy if it recognizes which student it is (not entirely clear based off of the post). The sprinkler idea is fabulous though.

And girls and non binary folk.

Makes it funnier though, doesn’t it?

Then how is the social pressure thing meant to work?

Any good school should have a fog machine of its own IMO.

That just sounds like a seperate problem to me.

There are USB headers, PCI(-E) slots, SATA and some older ones. To get storage devices working on each one you will need a different driver.

Windows disabled autorun for USB sticks before win10.

Also if you list the devices on Linux they will show up as sd(a, b, c…) for SSDs, hd(a, b, c…) for HDDs and nvmen(0,1,2…) for NVMe drives. So yes the OS must be able to differentiate.

Windows assigning letters is just weird IMO.

Also to my knowledge the floppy would show up as disk A on Windows.

Or you could just install it on any other system with Wayland or x11.

Gparted works fine for me, so that’s what I use.

Or at once if we have a big enough quantum computer.

It might be possible to keep signing with a different key until it matches. But I assume the signature is of the above text.

Windows XP wasn’t exactly intuitive to me and now only I know what my keybinds for Hyprland are so um maybe you’re right. Honestly switching to Ubuntu made things a lot easier for me than they were on windows because it was easier to change settings and similar just by using terminal commands rather than a weird gui or not at all.

I just thought the tail was an arm rest… Please revaluate your life choices/whatever lead to how you identify things on desks.

They said they forgot to add the license. I think it’s best to give them the benefit of the doubt and believe it was always meant to be open source, even before being posted here.

I specified that it would be running nothing (other than the init system which is the tty). Thereby the amount of ram required should not vary by much.

I know it’s very efficient and small (I believe it needs less than 80mib of ram with nothing else running) and that they leave out some of the basic commands like man to save space. Maybe they wrote more minimal versions of some coreutils?
