    “I use Linux as my operating system,” I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. “Actually”, he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!’ I don’t miss a beat and reply with a smirk, “I use Alpine, a distro that doesn’t include the GNU Coreutils, or any other GNU code. It’s Linux, but it’s not GNU+Linux.”

    The smile quickly drops from the man’s face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams “I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT’S STILL GNU!” Coolly, I reply “If windows were compiled with GCC, would that make it GNU?” I interrupt his response with “-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even if you were correct, you won’t be for long.”

    With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man’s life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I’ve womansplained him to death.












  • You have not provided a single link.

    I’m am no expert on flatpak and just did some basic searching.
    From reading the command reference it seems GPG-Verification is enabled for each remote and can’t be disabled/enabled for each install. I can just find some issues where gpg verification fails

    Error: GPG verification enabled, but no signatures found (use gpg-verify=false in remote config to disable)
    error: Failed to install bundle fr.handbrake.ghb: GPG verification enabled, but no signatures found (use gpg-verify=false in remote config to disable)
    

    Documentation seems to be more user oriented and not developer oriented maybe someone more knowledgeble can go in the source code and tell us how it actually works.







  • This seems like a bit of a scam:
    On your external drives you can prevent the creation of .DS_Store

    defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores -bool true
    defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteUSBStores -bool true
    

    If you really want to continuously delete DS_Store from both your internal and external hard drives you can set up a cronjob:

    15 1 * * * root find / -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete
