  • Totally agree.

    And here OP proves perfectly how Windows Updates have done a ton of collective damage to security by being a terrible experience.

    Software MUST be always updated.

    but then it breaks or the design team needed to justify its salary again or…

    Then the problem lies with the software. Not updating it is not a solution despite Debian propaganda (/hj)


  • You can have FDE binded to the TMP and then inside that encrypted volume an encrypted home.

    By doing that you only need to input your login password and get better security than the meme setup and other suggestions.

    You would need, iirc (I am typing this from memory):

    • A TPM.
    • systemd-cryptenroll
    • Some PAM config for fscrypt or similar.

    I know the steps but for NixOS only lmao.















    • LTS Linux distros are not good for desktop usage and terrible for beginners. (And for servers too but a bit less ig).
    • The current distribution model of Linux apps is garbage. The concept of package maintainers, in most cases, is just redundant, duplicated work.
    • Bash is horrible and relying on it for anything else than personal scripts gets messy really fast.
    • Having a standard “platform” in Linux is key.
    • SystemD is actually good, not perfect but very powerful.
    • Apps not using Portals are a crime.

    Obviously written by NixOS sectarian.
