Or through unencrypted by default backup. It goes on Google drive and there’s no guarantee that it doesn’t go to Meta.

Also, even now, your message could be thousand times encrypted - Google drive backups are not. At least by default. Don’t know anything about iOS, but probably same.

I may be wrong, but does it mean that if someone is able to modify my uefi - they would be able to inject virus in booting image?

New gen here(19). Care about privacy, while most people i know doesn’t. It does not depends on gen. It’s just most people of any gen, if they get comfortable with service they would not care if it’s gonna take every piece of info they have.

Man, i appreciate updates, but lemmy_api_common is now broken.

I really hope it’s just trolling.

Shared libraries are shared among processes, not programming languages.

You still can use them in any programming language

Yeah, but there’s by lot more security improvement by having ability to apply fix for severe vulnerability ASAP than weakening from possible incompativilities. Also, i wonder why i never brought it up, shared libs are shared, so you can use them across many programming languages. So, no, static is not the way to replace containers with dynamic linking, but yes, they share some use cases.

Well, good luck in finding free labor for it afterwards.

Understandable, but you should just get one thing: this is like Reddit, a lot of people don’t even read OPs name, so you can mess up as many times as you want and learn from it pretty safely.

Who cares? Just share thoughts if you have interesting one’s, what is that bad thing that can happen that prevent’s you from this?

I mean, you could have GUI for some CLI tool.

Yes, I’ve seen that pattern before, but:

1. I wouldn’t expect them to have many libraries in common, other than platform libraries like libc, since they have completely different purposes.
2. I was under the impression that Docker is for server applications. Is it even possible to run a GUI app inside a Docker container?

Also, if you are going to make something that have more than one binary

If they’re meant to run on the same machine and are bundled together in the same container image, I would call that a questionable design choice.

In the time i was thinking about some kind of toolkit installed though distrobox. Distrobox, basically, allows you to use anything from containers as if it was not. It uses podman, so i guess it could be impossible to use docker for GUI, although i cant really tell.

inlining is, as matklad once put it, the mother of all other optimizations. Dynamic linking leaves potentially a lot of performance on the table.

Yes, but static linking means you’ll get security and performance patches with some delay, while dynamic means you’ll get patches ASAP.

That seems like a questionable design choice.

I mean, you could have GUI for some CLI tool. Then you would need to run binary GUI, and either run binary CLI from GUI or have it as daemon. Also, if you are going to make something that have more than one binary, you’ll get more space overhead for static linking than for containers

Compared to the downsides of using a container image (duplication of system files like libc, dynamic linking overhead, complexity, etc), this is not a compelling advantage.

Man, that’s underestimating compiling time and frequency of updates of various libs, and overestimating overhead from dynamic linking (it’s so small it’s calculated in CPU cycles). Basically, dynamic linking reduces update overhead, like with static linking you’ll need to download full binary every update, even if lib is tiny, while with dynamic you’ll have to download only small lib.

Still, it’s going to take some time, every time some dependency(of dependency(of dependency)) changes(cause you don’t wanna end up with critical vulnerability). Also, if app going to execute some other binary with same dependency X, dependency X gonna be in memory only once.

They would 100% do it. No doubt.

Average third party user creates more content than average redditor. Most mods use third party applications. That makes it different from Tumblr, where only nsfw communities were killed, so rare people that were there not for porn weren’t affected. On Twitter, it’s Twitters administration that moderates Twitter. On Reddit - it’s users who does it. And as i’ve said, most of them use third party apps. That’s how it’s different.

Yes, it’s also important, but lack of high quality content will hit way earlier.

Yes it’s vocal minority, but that local minority is the reason why silent majority have content that keeps them on reddit.
