Systemd v261-rc1 is out with the 'birth date field'
Yes, right next to the fields for your full name and address, all of which are optional. It’s a total nothingburger.

GIMP rebranding as WLBR?
And here I was worried they would pick another terrible name.

These kind of exploits have always been common. The only thing that changed is people talking about them.

What about HDR?
I’m running 4k HDR 120Hz on NVidia 5070 in KDE Plasma on CachyOS.
To enable in Proton games it requires an extra environment variable.
The AMD part is actually the opposite, since AMD drivers on Linux can’t do HDMI 2.1, but NVidia can.

Arch Linux AUR Malware Campaign Hits Multiple User-Contributed Packages

The way to prevent it is to get more stuff into the official repos so people aren’t forced to rely on AUR in the first place.

Zorin OS 18 Hits 2 Million Downloads as Windows Users Drive Growth
Reply in thread
When I was doing web searches for distro research just before Win 10 EOL (and before Zorin exploded), Zorin was one of the top recommendations that I repeatedly saw from users in Linux communities when people asked for distro recommendations.
Zorin was also the top recommendation given to me by distrochooser.de.
So I'm not surprised that many people leaving Windows ended up there.
I made a short list of distros to try and Zorin was very buggy for me (possibly because they just did a major release at that time) and I don't like GNOME, so I ultimately ended up on CachyOS.

Miss me with this "slippery slope" BS.
Having a standardized place to store the DOB is a good thing and it should have been there even before these laws.
And if some users want to comply with those laws, then they should have a way to do it.
If anybody actually tries to make this a hard requirement (which isn't going to happen), then you can bitch about it at that time.

Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?
Because Mint exists and is just ”Debian configured for regular humans”.
Anyone that would rather have raw Debian doesn’t need to be told that.

Dirty Frag: Universal Linux LPE - allows any unprivileged local user to gain root access on a vulnerable Linux system - no patch available
Reply in thread
If they can already read/write all of your user’s files, then an attacker doesn’t even care about root access anyway most of the time anyway.
It’s really only relevant for things like web servers.
