Angriffswelle auf Arch Linux: Hunderte Paketbeschreibungen mit Malware im AUR

Arch Linux wehrt sich gegen eine Angriffswelle, die massenweise Paketbeschreibungen im inoffiziellen Arch User Repository mit Malware verseucht hat.

#artix Linux lets gooooo!
decided to test run on an old system76 first, but I'm so far behind on #KiConnect dev because I haven't been able to run #FreeCAD in weeks
Maybe I have the best system already

I've been looking at #Freedos for the #retrocomputing nostalgia value and the text-only goodness.

I wound up using Qemu on my X270 as Freedos on bare metal means my 14 year old Thinkpad X220 is way too modern, no networking for example.

Yes there's some crazy good software, and it's fun. But using fullscreen in Qemu means a fuzzy display, and I came to measure how the terminal on Linux is truly light years ahead.

In fact it pushes home that my #Artix / #DWM / #Kitty setup is the veritable #retrocomputing bees knees
Desktop screencap update post. I have switched to Artix and the MATE desktop since I last posted a desktop screencap here.

The last time I posted a desktop screencap here, I was on Arch /w KDE.

I'm back to using Cinnamon desktop environment on my ThinkPad T470s laptop.

Was having a few annoyances and crashes with XFCE. Could have been that I installed XFCE with pacman and not as a fresh install. Could be the bleeding edge of Artix Linux. Not sure.

Installed Cinnamon with pacman and I'll see if it behaves better.

#ThinkPad #T470s #Cinnamon #Artix #Linux

Welp, it's been a good and surprisingly stable run. I installed @archlinux on my desktop 5 years ago, almost to the day! But finally got bit by an -Syu that's completely broken KDE/QT and I just cannot seem to fix it.

Between that and being completely fed up with systemd (why tf do you keep asking me for an auth username when I'm using SUDO?!?!?!), not to mention their age verification boot licking... I'm going to give #Artix Linux a whirl.

Arch linux is powered by SystemD, which is tainted with AI code.

If i'm making a linux distro to promote alternatives to software which include AI-generated code, It's best to cover every bit of the distro down to the init system, hence why i'm switching to Artix with OpenRC.

You can not control Linux. We will build systems around it.

By the way, you can install Artixlinux Packages over my i2p mirror for better censorship resilience. If you ask kindly, I might add your favorite distros repo.

I have a few glitches with this, as I didn't do a fresh install, so likely missing some things (removed KDE Plasma with pacman and installed XFCE with pacman). I think the network manager isn't there, so it doesn't like to connect to my wifi hotspot, but reboot the laptop then connects it.

Probably missing a few other things, too.
