POSIX really has a tool for everything!

A screenshot of a Reddit post on r/commandline by u/gumnos with the fun tag. Title: "TIL POSIX specifies a tool desinged to assist you with generated code." Body: "Given all the low-quality LLM-generated projects flooding r/commandline, it's valuable to know that POSIX provides a tool to review and modify code generated by LLMs, so I thought I'd bring this tool to the attention of this subreddit's members. In typical Unix fashion, the POSIX folks shortened ""review & modifying" to just two letters: `$rm code.rs` It even has command-line options to recursibly fix whole project-directories of LLM-generated code: `rm -rf project/` Handle it wisely, and I hope to see more use of it around here!"

Thanks!

Is this a Windows thing? Only times I have used it are in computer labs… I actually don’t even know how to install Windows other than like, version 8 in a VM without internet.

My parents always said I could do whatever I wanted with my hair if I didn’t do drugs or alcohol. It was a surprisingly healthy rule they had for me. Didn’t realize at the time why I liked having long hair, I always said it was something, something, I don’t like getting it cut. They did make me cut it (not short though) on occasion mostly because I was never taught to properly take care of my hair, so I did let it get a bit unkempt in the past.

I’m in this picture… and I don’t like it.

In theory yes, in practice, I have no idea. My guess is you would need to soft-fork the project to get it using either project, or maybe be really, really nice to the devs and ask them to support additional protocols. Technically there is no reason it wouldn’t work, but whether or not there are enough people with your usecase for devs to justify implementing a new feature is another matter entirely.

By no means should we avoid the development of the space environment for human gain.

I don’t want to be a naysayer or Luddite (wait, who am I kidding?), but I hard disagree with that take. A space economy will get us nowhere. Yeah, sure, some interesting technology (arguably) came from the Apollo program, and NASA has done some amazing astronomy with JWST and Hubble. But, as with so many other aspects of modern life, the cost is far too great to society as a whole. The energy needed to get anything to or from orbit is enormous, and there is no way around that. The thing we need to curb climate change is reduction of energy usage in any form (driving, flying, electricity, ect.). This is even on top of other issues in rocketry like ozone layer depletion and the light pollution described above. As such, if climate change really is the greatest threat to humanity (which it is), putting anything into space is not a worthwhile venture.

From what I can tell, the issue with Wireguard is that the traffic is quite obvious. Other options might be blocked, but technically harder to implement said blocks.

Yeah, WG is by far the best way to do this kind of networking.

That’s quite fascinating, didn’t realize Wireguard could be blocked in that way (although the WG traffic is pretty obvious looking, so it makes sense). The only solution I know of without a need for a VPS is hosting everything on Tor. Wildly private and secure, but also wildly slow. Beyond that, there are a number of ways of using a VPS to similar effect, I know people have used Cloudflare Tunnel to similar effect in the past.

Also, there are apparently quite a number of wiregaurd derivatives which protect better against detection and blocking methods. amnezia and wstunnel are the two that came up. Likewise, you will need a VPS, and might even be able to set up a tailscale-like coordination server that way (maybe with headscale, or maybe with one of its competitors like NetBird).

ZeroTier might also get the job done, but I really don’t know much about it.

Hope this helps, and good lucks!

There’s a ton of suggestions and stuff already, so don’t want to add to the noise, but thanks for the work! Had no idea about Artix, and almost installed it because of dinit.

Just wanted to say, KaOS is systemd free, it’s been using dinit for the init system for some time now. It does ship with some standalone systemd components like elogind, but so does Chimera. (also a really good project if anyone wants to check it out, quickly becoming my go-to recommend).

Also check out Chimera Linux, it’s a brilliant project. The lead dev is trans, the package management philosophy is very similar to Void, but with Alpine’s APK instead of XBPS, and Dinit is a damn good init system. Here be dragons, but it remains one of my favorite distros.
