I was nervous about this too - but it's "just" the AUR. That means it's only unofficial packages, which we should always take great care when installing anyway.
Python venv's is the #1 reason I've avoided working with it more. It used to be #2 behind strong typing, but now that Linux OSes' take up the default python install and block it from being used for quick scripts, it jumped to #1.
I've always wondered why Linux OSes that rely on python scripts don't make their own default venv and instead clobber the user's default python environment...
For people who want an easier approach, both NethServer and Cloudron have this packaged as an app for people who self host. The Cloudron one is not official yet and is a community developed one.
I would agree with "should be obvious" if this was a sports news website :D. Sorry, sometimes us nerds need more context or a title will seem misleading / clickbait-y.
Edit: now that I realize from the article its 16" circumference it's less surprising, and I can imagine what it would look like. The title should mention it is circumference.
I get the draw, and it's amusing, and it works; but I come here for tech topics - not clickbait. It's always nice to see the -1's to remind me that I'm barely a fit for this site! :D
I wish fewer sites would resort to 4 letter words in their titles to grab attention. These days, a title like this makes me assume the product itself is not interesting enough for me to look at.
I think using example.com is a bit of a trick question. It is known as an example domain which is invalid for all purposes, except of course for serving as an example. :)
I have recently become quite fascinated with how much of what we use daily relies on the laws of physics always working the exact same way. This is a wonderful example of that.
I looked into Sandstorm when I moved away from NethServer; I'm a strong believer in self-hosting. Sandstorm was too haphazard with apps and security of apps didn't seem to be their highest priority. I went with Cloudron, it's a nice mix of good app selection and security.
It also points out that the requirement (or belief one exists) to have "clean" blood causes would-be donors to avoid drugs, which also has a benefit. I'm guessing less drugs consumed means better health, better choices, and more money available for necessities.
We are talking about binary computers here, there is no such thing as a "fuzzy" input or a "fuzzy" output.
The fact is that these MCPs are allowed to bypass all existing and well-functioning security barriers, and we cross our fingers and hope they won't be manipulated into giving more information than the previous security barriers would have allowed. It's a bad idea that people are running with due to the hype.
I think they meant:
窃钩者诛，窃国者侯
qiègōuzhě zhū, qièguózhě hóu
He who steals a belt buckle pays with his life; he who steals a state gets to be a feudal lord.
Another vote for Linux Mint. It's very easy to use and has a good blend of recent software and stability.
As long as you don't pick a brand new CPU/chipset the hardware support is nearly flawless as long as the laptop isn't from an overly proprietary manufacturer.
I do like performance, and a 2-in-1 form factor, so I went with an MSI Summit. They have cheaper models without discrete GPUs in a smaller form factor.
