Well, grinding the day job computer to an absolute fucking halt while the anti-malware software does its thing is one way to stop malware from running, I guess.

@daedalus @MattHatton It is if you're running Linux!
Show threadMatt HOct 3
@hellomiakoda @daedalus Is that because you run an above average chance of having done something to the computer so that it simply does not turn on?
Show threadJPOct 3
@MattHatton @hellomiakoda While that used to be the case, I find that the situation has reversed compared to e.g. Windows, which constantly gets changed by its manufacturer in ways that cause it to stop functioning as I intended, while all my Linux stuff largely just keeps doing whatever it was already doing. Very occasionally I break something on a Linux box because I didn't properly understand what I was doing. I then learn and fix it and it stays fixed.
