There is a limited amount of Bitcoin, and some of it is lost in forgotten wallets, so the total volume is constantly falling. This may partially increase the price.

But in reality, as in any speculative market, the price of bitcoin depends mainly on faith in it and speculation about world events (some kind of cataclysms, regular statements of this or that person about cryptocurrency, etc.)

The main real value can only be found in countries that are disconnected from SWIFT. However, almost no one appreciates this because there are only 5 officially disconnected countries. However, if this list continues to grow, cryptocurrencies (including Bitcoin) will become more prevalent in international transactions.

In the initial stage of shared library support, everything was exactly the same. Let’s look at it in 5 years… When some soft will archived and die, some stop maintaining, some new crated and brakes old dependencies…

runtime have versions too. If one runtime version use only one flatpack than exactly same as just static linking binary. Flatpack have just docker layeredfs and firejail in base.

id: org.gnome.Dictionary runtime: org.gnome.Platform runtime-version: '45' <- here sdk: org.gnome.Sdk command: gnome-dictionary

They don’t have to! Flat pack doesn’t remove all other ways to install software. But for 95% of use cases, it will do just fine.

Tell this to canonical, they even firefox put in the snap. You know that when choosing “quickly compile something for a flatpack” and “support 10+ distributions”, the developers will choose a flatpack. Which in general looks fine, until you realize that everything is just scored on the mainline of libraries and molded on anything. The most striking example of this is Linphone. just try to compile it…

Provided that flatpack has a common parent container, which is not always the case. More precisely, it almost never does. Because someone updates flatpack to new versions of the parent containers, and someone else does not.

this is a system for work tasks. Of course, I understand what the developers are going for. that is Android. And it’s really nice to read the Internet on android. But try to do something more complicated than that and you’ll realize that it’s hell. However, I don’t mind if such distributions appear. Why not? I just don’t understand people who voluntarily limit their abilities. And why you don’t just install Android 64?

The flatpack approach automatically remove everything low-level from the equation. Do you want to write directly to the graphics card buffer? Read the input? Do I set the fan rotation parameters directly in the /proc? All these applications will never work in flat pack.

On the other hand, flatpack is superfluous and for convenience. You can simply build an executable file without dependencies and configure firejail for it yourself… That’s all. Or run the file from another user. That is so popular exactly bacause RedHat pushed them. Literaly like Canonical pushed snap.

However, the extent of the damage is limited by flatpak and whatever permissions you have set, and, if I understand it correctly, you cannot attack one flatpak through the other unless they share access to some files.

there is a problem here that permissions are also set by the packages developers. User in most cases click accept all and alll done.

On an unrelated note: apparently, there is finally some Russian Lemmy instance? That’s a welcome change.

Well… Appeared 2 years ago. It’s just that practically no one needs it. =)

Times are changing, and memory constraints for most programs are generally not relevant anymore.

But there are gaps in the libraries that, unlike distributions with dependencies, can no longer be managed. And all the security of your system depends on a small flatpack access control, which 99% of users do not understand at all and, with any problems simply opens access to the entire home directory.

It’s not the 80s, and I can save a few megabytes to keep my system running smoothly and well-managed.

And then it turns out that you have 18 libssl libraries in diffirent fpatpacks, and half of them contain a critical vulnerability that any website on the Internet can use to hack your PC. How much do you trust the limitations of flatpack apps? are you sure that a random hacker won’t hack your OBS web plugin and encrypt your entire fpatpack partition (which some “very smart” distributions even stuff office into, and your work files will be hidden there). People have come up with external dependencies for a reason.

I’ve been working on Linux for 15 years now and I perfectly remember the origin of many concepts. If you look at it through time, what would it be like:

1. We can build applications with external dependencies or a single binary, what should we choose?
2. The community is abandoning a single binary due to the increased weight of applications and memory consumption and libraries problems
3. Dependency hell is coming …
4. Snap, flatpack, appimage and other strange solutions are inventing something, which are essentially a single binary, but with an overlay (if the developer has hands from the right place, which is often not the case)
5. Someone on lemmy says that he literally doesn’t care if the application is built in a single binary, consumes extra memory and have libraries problems. Just close all permissions for that application…

Well, all I can say about this is just assemble a single binary for all applications, stop doing nonsense with a flatpack/snap/etc.

UPD: or if you really want to break all the conventions, just use nixos. You don’t need snap/flatpack/etc.

I’ll finish my house, clear out the old tree debris, and complete all the physical work I’ve planned for years to come.

it all depends on how you define a person. Most likely, you think that a person’s consciousness is something inside the brain, and in this case, the “external” body really influences your decisions. But that’s not how it really works. The body is also a part of you, so everything that happens inside it, including “the hormone levels”, is a part of you. And your experience is a part of you too. It’s just that you can’t control it, but that doesn’t mean it’s not your decisions. Otherwise, we will come to the conclusion that muscle memory is also not a part of you, but some kind of external factor. In general, if you are interested in my answer: yes, we always make decisions on our own.

What you mean when say “windows only”? You can just set “use proton” in steam client and run windows game on Linux with proton.

Yeah, that is a big deal. We have 4 days for celebrate. From 1 to 4 may. Municipalities organize fairs, concerts, etc. But unofficially, these are barbecue days. everyone goes out into nature and roasting meat on grills. And after that we celebrate Victory day from 8 may to 11 may. So many people get 3 days vacation between holidays and don’t work 2 weeks. So, that is like China new year or Japanese golden week.

I think you Just need nginx with one module: https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_dav_module.html That is filestorage only. WebDAV client exists for all platforms.

UPD: if you need web client you can use something like https://github.com/mgoltzsche/file-service/

My first linux was Ubuntu 10.04. And I swapped to Arch only when Ubuntu added snap.
