TLDR: Ubuntu Pro offers additional security patches to packages found in the universe repo. Universe is community maintained so Ubuntu is essentially stepping in to provide critical CVE patches to some popular software in this repo that the community has not addressed.
I suppose it depends on how you look at it but I don’t really see this as withholding patches. Software in this repo would otherwise be missing these patches and it’s a ton of work for Ubuntu to provide these patches themselves.
Now is they move glibc to universe and tell me to subscribe to get updates I’ll feel differently.
The general advice goes like this; If your work offers a match on a 401k then contribute up to the match. If you have more money, max out an IRA. If you have more money, max out the 401k.
If your health plan is a high deductible plan with an HSA you can also contribute to this. They are designed for health expenses but they can also serve as an additional tax advantaged retirement account.
Beyond that you’d be investing through a taxable brokerage account.
As far as what to invest in, S&P500 index funds are usually advised since they tend to capture the overall average returns of the market. Target retirement funds are another option if you want a set it and forget it option that will rebalance to less risky investments as you near retirement age.
I’ve had two Dell laptops that ran Ubuntu perfectly. Dell sells laptops with Ubuntu pre-installed and also certifies models for Linux. Their Linux support is top notch in my experience.
Honestly this is probably me going off of outdated or even incorrect information. The fact that it has little adoption for that use case or as a root filesystem is probably the larger factor.
It’s been awesome to see Ubuntu embrace it over the last few releases though and that’s certainly starting to change things but since it’s not part of the Linux kernel that gives most other distros pause I think.
I don’t believe it’s been marked stable yet but it doesn’t suffer from the raid write hole like BTRFS and claims to be more performant than ZFS’s implementation.
With it being merged into the kernel it should get much wider use and hopefully that helps it reach stability.
I was referring to its lack of use as a root filesystem. It’s primarily used for large storage arrays both at home and in data centers.
I’m really excited for this. If it lives up to the hype I think it could become the defacto filesystem some day.
BTRFS, despite being a great filesystem, got a bad rep mostly due to its poor RAID5/6 implementation. It also lags behind in performance in many configurations and has been mostly relagated to a specialty filesystem. While it could make a great root filesystem few distros have adopted it as such.
ZFS has been similarly pigeon holed. It’s typically only used for building large arrays because it’s not very safe when used on a single device (edit: After some research this may not be true and is probably outdated or incorrect info stuck in my head) . It also lacks a lot of the flexibility of BTRFS, though you could say it trades flexibility for reliability.
bcachesfs on the other hand feels like it has the potential to be adopted as a root file system while also providing replication, erasure coding, high performance and snapshots; something that no filesystem has managed to date, at least on a wide scale.
Okay so I just read up on this. It’s it true that TPM backed FDE only allows snaps?!?
Debs are completely unsupported?
I’m no professional but I’ve found Zar products to be high quality. They’re sold at True Values on the East Coast.
Nobody is coming after you, don’t worry about it. If they were really determined? Maybe, possibly, depending on many factors but you’re a very small fish in a very big pond.
If you have dark mode enabled in your android display settings then you can use the dynamic color option in boost to inherit amoled black from there.
Look I love FOSS, but this mentality that using anything except for FOSS is dumb. An incredible amount of time, money, and effort goes into building an app like Boost and the developer has every right to keep it closed source and charge for it and you have every right not to use it.
Many people are more than willing to pay for great software and others are happy to give up some privacy to get it for free. That’s their choice.
Car seats are not gate checked. Strollers can be since parents use them up until boarding but car seats are checked with the rest of your luggage.
Edit: I forgot to account for car seats that are part of a stroller… I imagine those would have to be gate checked as well. That’s a special case though.
I don’t know, I’ve never looked into it. Unless you can rent them at the airport though I don’t see it being helpful.
Sometimes you can book a car service in advance that will provide one.
Regardless it’s going to be extra cost and something extra to worry about when you arrive which isn’t worth it to me personally.
You retrieve them from baggage claim just like everyone else, at least that’s been my experience across multiple airlines.
Your didn’t have a car seat with you? I can see getting away without a stroller if you use a carrier but no car seat isn’t an option.
I almost never checked bags prior to having a child but there’s been plenty of times where the airline checked my bags at the gate because the overheads were full so I quickly learned it’s something you can’t count on.
Yea they’re internal. That’s normal for a fully loaded 2u storage server. Some even have 2-4 extra disk slots in the rear to cram in a few more.
Ruben isn’t super quick to put out updates but he makes up for it in quality. He was slower than some other devs to get Boost for Lemmy out the door but the first release was damn near perfect, stable, fast and only very minor bugs. Personally I prefer quality over constant updates.
These developers owe us nothing and it takes an incredible amount of time and lots of money to develop an app of this quality so no matter which app you choose consider paying and/or donating.
