#tumbleweed — Public Fediverse posts

@pedersen oh I believe it. #Canonical has gotten orders of magnitude better at this.

My bit is more of precautions than anything.

Funny enough, my daily driver used to be #popos until 24.04 release. 😅 and before that, was #opensuse #tumbleweed or #arch. 🫠

But for stable platform, I've always targeted #ubuntu. I like the bleeding edge to test limits, yet build for production with things that are boring. Makes those migraines disappear. 😅

#Tumbleweed on tosin minulla tarkoitus pitää kakkoskäyttiksenä, eli tehnen vielä uudet asennukset kummallakin pöytäkoneella. #Työkone'ille tulee #Debian13.

Dear KDE Plasma Linux users,

say I have a laptop with a LUKS-encrypted file system.
Say this is a single user system.

The user unlocks the device (before or after the bootloader, should not matter in this discussion) with a safe password.

The user is logged in automatically in KDE Plasma.

KWallet is set to have an empty password, to not ask the user for a password just to enable WiFi or similar (which is the only thing KWallet is being used for).

The user still needs to enter the password after locking the screen, suspending the machine or similar.

Passwords are still in a locked password safe (think KeePassXC or similar), so this requires unlocking with a safe password.

Does anyone see major security flaws in this setup?

Due to #EndOf10 I have converted some users to Linux, and having to enter your password multiple times is the only thing they find annoying...

#homelab What didn't go as well:
- Needed flatpaks & appimages for more recent versions than in #leap but I'll live. I'm not ready for #tumbleweed for a daily driver.
- Using the Vorta GUI for Borg backup under sudo. Kludged it with waypipe.
- offlineimap (python2). There's a Py3 version but it was a no go even trying to use the git repo. Switched to #mbsync.
- Fighting the firewall. Default on. Pulled my hair out for a while with mDNS etc.
- atuin uses sqlite3 which behaves badly on ZFS.
