Hey thank you for the very detailed response! I can not give a full response right now. But the hacky way described is exactly what i did and didnt seem to work for me.

Yes RHEL IDM does. More linux specific like sudo rules for example.

Their are not many other good foss calendar apps that I know off

While on one hand Manjaro is very polished. Some things they do is questionable. Like the time they suggested to change your date and time because they let their repo keys expire. Or accidentally DDOS the AUR. Just to name some. The Manjaro team has a rather bad track record of these things.

😂😂 good one

Lets up that one and add tor.

Those are exactly the ones i never noticed sysrq being disabled. I use the resisub quite often on tumblweed. and used to on arch.

It is? I never noticed it being disabled honestly.

Tip for when you need to use the power button and do a force shutdown. Try the following first Alt+SysRq r>e>i>s>u>b

Their are not many programs that require open ports for incoming trafic. Things like ssh or a web server do. But then again those are services you would manualy want to open anyway.

Honnestly. Firewalls shut be enabled by default. Specially on laptops connecting to public places.

A good default shut be choosen by the disteo maintainer. A default shut not overwrite your own config. Like any config really. So no upset folks that like to change the firewall. Also if you dont block much outgoing trafic you are not likely to run into problems. And for people that like to poke holes in the incoming trafic. Your a “advanced” user anyway.

Personaly i like to use borg.

What is the bennefit of vorta? Personally i have always used borg directly.

Yeah btrfs and snapshots on TW is amazing. Also TW is rock solid even though it is a rolling distro.

You are able to force devices to use a specified DNS. even when they have hard coded DNS in them. Your router/firewall must be able to support redirection of network traffic though.

What makes rust so resiliant against these types of atacks?

In the basis you are right. But nowadays a good large USB stick shut be able to handle it fine over a long period. I would recommend to put the cache and temp directory’s on a memory drive. that way you do not constantly stress out the USB.

On the other hand nowadays their are USB cases for M.2 SSDs. this would eliminate the entire problem.

Out of curiousity. Why get a M1 or mac for that matter. In the first place?

Although most of the times while vim is not installed vi is. Even often together with nano.
