Go to Edit > Preferences > System and check where your User Extensions folder is, then extract the xz file to there

Maybe you can also change the extensions folder in this configuration

Dude, you need a prize for this comment. Very well explained!

Does it matter?

This is a vulnerability anyway and we should be take care of.

Well, looks like you know how to format a PC. Then you already did 90% of the dirty work of installing and using a Linux.

Choose a friendly-linux distro and you’ll be fine. I suggest you to try Arch (I’m joking!) Linux Mint, Fedora, PopOS or Zorin OS.

I think PopOs would be really easy!

I miss the point why they don’t invested into Flatpak. I mean, with Flatpak they could’ve focus on make Zed works on the Flatpak platform and, as a consequence, it will be fine in every distro. The only thing that they should’ve be taking care is X11 and Wayland, but every other aspect to worry such as distro choice, QT/GTK, Gnome/KDE, etc would be vanished away

I would be sincere:

Movies take too many space in SSD and too many resources to host, therefore I’m not going to host movies I disagree with. And if she really want this movies to be digitalized, I would give her a choice to buy new hardware (probably SSD) to be dedicated to her.

Go with Arch with btrfs.

You can delay your updates as long as you need, but make sure to update your arch.keyring first. And never partially update, cause things can go crazy really fast if you partially update.

Also, Arch meet all your criteria. I see no reason to not use it.

You know you can install the Nix Package Manager on any distro and have all Nix repo in your hand, right?

The best password manager!

Why don’t we improve the basic stuff, like processor architecture?

Because if we do, we make everything we have working now break. So everything would need be ported to this new architecture.

The same with bash or any other foundation lib.

And also these “improvements” may make these libs more complex and, therefore, more unstable and hackable.

The simple is simple for a reason: It works trustfully

Flatpak is user wide, so yeah, they can…

I bet that a kid with no root access or sudo permission couldn’t break any Linux system, immutable or not…

Gnome itself is embedded with parental control and you can enable it while adding a new user

I don’t know how other DEs deal with it, but I think all of them has something similar, tho

Edit: also may be a good idea set a AdGuard to set a DNS block for some origins… AdGuard gives you the capability to block several apps and you can customize blocks as well

It looks like a third party issue rather than Gnome issue…

Maybe you just need to wait for an update that fiz it

Arbitrary, exactly like any other distro tierlist

Agreed. In Arch you can run a post-script after update in pacman, so you can update the python file. But I don’t know how other package managers deal with it

Because is Chinese. And that’s not what I think, it is what it is.

Or they will ban X and Im not aware?

I thought that US was the country of freedom, but turns out that the freedom is just to racists, nazis and for them to fuck up other countries.

The first tool I can think of is LibreOffice Draw

Maybe there are other tools, but I think LibreOffice Draw do the job pretty well

Edit: If the PDF has written text, you may wanna use an OCR tool, but I don’t have any to suggest

I feel ambiguous with that question…

Clearly OP has social skills issues and maybe it’s a genuine question. Or it can be just a way to offend…

Either way I think OP must rethink hes attitude toward other people.

Looks like you live in a dystopia, where making healthy relations are scarce.

Maybe you would be great to practice your social skills, dude…

You are lucky that people are nice, cause due to your petulance I would never help you

Im using Matomo, however my use case is different from yours. I run a business and need more complete data, which Matomo gives me

I also had in mind Plausible, cause it’s less resource demandant, but at the end I have chosen Matomo

I am able to fully use passkey with Firefox and KeePassXC on Linux.

whereas I’ve configured Firefox on their Linux laptop not to keep any cookies after the browser is closed.

Here is your issue

It has nothing to do with Linux at all. It’s all about the browsers configurations you made

Not self explanatory at all.

Protondb?

I don’t know the distro, but surely the messenger is based on Matrix protocol

I think you can run like this:

$ pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY <yourapp>

For example, if I wanna open kgx (a.k.a. Gnome Console), I would run:

pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY kgx

Oh no! A wild privacy-delusional appears!

I’m afraid you can’t

The calendar shares information due to CalDav compatibility, however I don’t think it applies to Tasks as well, since we don’t even know what protocol Google Tasks uses

I think the best you can do is use the Todo.txt app on your phone and sync it through Google Drive to have access in both your phone and your PC

Definitely Linux Lite run on a potato. Maybe you should try it

I want to, but I don’t have any :(

Ah! Okay…

Well, it was intentionally xD

But I didn’t thought it would be a funny pun hahaha

Anyway, I did it mostly because the OP also did

Well, I guess u have your answer, tho

The important thing here is to feel good with your decision

Well, until someone find a new backdoor, I call it safe again

I’ll not lose my mental health to a potentially and unknown shady backdoor that could be installed or not in a lib

What I did there? o.O

I don’t even know

Arch wasn’t affected at all, cause the backdoor trigger was only on deb and rpm distros.

However it still a good practice to update your system and leave this version behind. Anyway, Arch already updated and is no longer distributing the backdoor version, therefore 5.6.1-3 is safe

You can use Arch btw again. Actually, you never had to leave it at first

For my daily laptop I use Arch with LTS kernel. I’ve using it for years and had only 1 issue with normal kernel (that made me switch to LTS)

Also I used Arch as server for long time in my homelab, however now I changed to OrangePi and Raspberry Pi, so I use Ubuntu

Nothing is as good as an Arch server… I love the adrenalin running in my veins every update!

I even set an autoupdate script to make things even more scarier!

Despite the adrenalin rush, my Arch never broke

Well, if the choice to change from XZ to zstd is based on other technical features, my previous point is pointless

It’s always great to see better technology being implemented!
