chromium got 27 dependencies, firefox 14, and which are say 'regular' and which are juvenile bells & whistles.
Supposedly it's good luck to have gullgoo drop on you.
Perhaps a clever person could create and copyright the word and make some money.
Also this hijacking (why is PageUp PageDown not working,) of input device is shady.

Anybody who thinks that privacy is dead is mistaken.
Privacy and freedom are the same thing, and if we do not have freedom, we are not here.

Recent days I've been getting annoyed with browsers as we do, they're about as funny as gonorrhea, except the battle at the end of time will be between gonorrhea and the cockroach and googull won't feature.
So this morning I looked at the situation for about forty-five minutes.
Looking at debian dot org forward slash security, firefox-esr basically features regularly routinely every month, which to me demonstrates some organisation/system, and the security issues are numerous matters.
chromium as we know seems to feature all the fucking time, actually it averages at about two and a half times the time of firefox, and most of the time the matter is memory heap corruption.

I'm using firefox-esr this morning and find the performance about the same as chromium, and using ublock of course.

So I have formed the opinion,
The routine of firefox-esr is impressive.
The regularity of chrome is not.
Many more people use chrome, pc's, smartphones etc., so the bullshit AI automatic data thieving bastards are probably more of a nuisance in chrome.

Try firefox-esr, go to settings and turn ALL that shit off, install webext-ublock-origin-firefox, the performance is the same as chrome which we lazily use.

Now I need to find where the settings are stored, chromium is .config/chromium, which I backup.
And figure out if I can ditch the on mouse over scrollbar.

What numerous thieving have I not mentioned here, e.g. cloud.

I recently got a wired USB flexible keyboard and I can see from a log that it has got a SIGMACHIP (Beijing,) in it.
In my opinion, it has got a nano capacitor in it, and a log of the keys I press is retrieved by Security Services.
When I use a password I ifdown and Ctrl C V on the fly from an editor using a different keyboard.
A short USB extension cable and I am not wearing out the port.
At some point the Chinese will become more proficient at hacking than the Russians and they won't like it.

According to the wpasupplicant README.Debian, the files, interfaces, and, wpa_supplicant.conf, are world readable and should chmod 0600.
My doas.conf file has 3 lines, random MAC script, ifup, and ifdown.
Anyway I chmod 0600 the file and it still works.

contrary to popular wisdom, you will need to do a clean install.
so that's 3 backups fool.
i guess if you are in a submarine, with your finger on the button of last line of defense, you will have the peril of usrmerge

#32 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 21:33:32

this post is solved, albeit it took a fuckwit as reticent as a british savage to determine that.

rolfie, you have no right to flame me,
you see my participation,
I would be interested to know your nationality,
your behaviour is something like a defective retiscent british quarter wit.

#35 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 21:12:49

Sincerely thank you for informing me that this usrmerge topic is a joke.
Now me and ralph down under got that first testing iso to work thankyou, I was the individual who worked with ralph and his third upload works, thanks to me.
So your first present Devuan testing iso that works, is thanks to me, wasting your time.

#36 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 20:50:17

It's just more confusion,
starting off in Linux installing not knowing what a mount point is,
building modules to get your usb frog modem to work.
I don't know what newbies spin thesedays, mint, not knoppix.
what do newbies do in 2024 who are sceptical of identity theft.

#37 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 20:41:58

if I had 5 lifetimes I might waste a lifetime giving Debian flak, maybe.
I only do one forum blogging, and this is it, and I know I can be hard to bear.
Devuan is vanguard.
I just see this jerking off about usrmerge and it is annoying.
and as you stated rolfie on another post, build from netinstall.

#38 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 20:19:35

is usrmerge innovation growth, or reduntant obsolete service economy earning money under false pretences parasite killing the host entrophy evil.

#39 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 20:05:57

Does anybody need to usrmerge.
NO.
PERIOD.
For you'se who's box is so complex and complicated, you know how to fix it.
Does anybody need to usrmerge.
NO.
PERIOD.

#40 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 19:49:26

A clever person can ascertain, regardless of masquerade, priority, who is spinning the Devuan testing iso right now, and that's the MSS and come backwards. offline. no shit
funny the democracy, I'm an artist, between my ears is a chief salad.
what about yours golinux!
give me a word between twinkie and chief salad!!!

this post is going to rock, tip of the iceberg.

#42 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] usrmerge is a crock of crap, catastrophic » 2024-04-25 19:21:34

I wasn't going to input until tomorrow, but things change.
I didn't expect nothing.
So I am very pleasantly surprised indeed to see input from golinux and rolfie, I was sceptical of such bravery.
golinux and rolfie are, amongst others, two hardcore superlative benefits to this forum, big time.
Now, as rolfie stated on another post, I smart person will spin it from a netinstall iso and build it from there.
And now we have testing iso, thanks to 'ralph down under superior' (superior because he's island mentality,) and him and me making that iso good.
Some years back, I was rooting an Android telephone and the Chinese developer said it was no fugu.
Some I'm searching the web for the fugu program, no fugu is no fucking good shey shey thank you.
I used to work for Mitac Synnex.
Today on top of Excalibur I installed refracta and dummy-logind and Xwrapper.config and usrmerge see you later.
----
If I create a script program, say modprobe cdc-acm
I touch & chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/motorola
or I can dot forward slash from anywhere
golinux & rolfie, I am touched.
usrmerge is wrong

#45 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] First (2024-04-13,) Excalibur amd64 netinstall iso, fails kernel panic » 2024-04-25 08:38:55

I have a blank Foresee 64GB mSATA SSD in a mini-itx,
I've put Daedalus and Excalibur on it, barebones, I unstarred install minimal stuff.
On a 19 1/2" monitor, I'm now looking at ls -m /usr/share/doc.
On the surface anyway! I see that Daedalus has dummy package lsb-base, and util-linux-extra, and Excalibur has systemd-standalone-sysusers, and usr-is-merged.
The testing iso's appeared on the mirrors, so I gave it a try, and am proud of my small yet valid participation in testing.
I am learning things, I am happy.
wpasupplicant, and wireless-tools, work, so that's good.

#46 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Devuan Excalibur/Ceres started to work slowly after the recent update » 2024-04-24 17:29:03

thank you rolfie for your wise words, you should only use testing if you are willing to contribute to this phase.
there are numerous people on this forum, experienced commendable people, saying install usrmerge.
this is not a good idea.
correct me if I am wrong but usr-is-merged dummy package is what you should do.

#47 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-04-24 17:18:46

Apparently you can't be a morris dancer if you are circumsised, to be a morris dancer you have to be a complete prick.
Any analogies, better than second hand car sales and estate agents and Windows and Elon nuking the poles on mars and blowing up the solar system.

#48 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] First (2024-04-13,) Excalibur amd64 netinstall iso, fails kernel panic » 2024-04-24 14:51:37

my mistake failure,
usrmerge is not installed
usr-is-merged is an empty package
which infers that the one way ticket silly-links not happened.

#50 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] First (2024-04-13,) Excalibur amd64 netinstall iso, fails kernel panic » 2024-04-24 14:26:45

And yes it doesn't install without silly-links.
Debootstrap Error
The following error occurred:
Unmerged /usr is not compatible with excalibur

I think most of all, thank you for the most important lingua franca, silly-links.
At this stage of playing around testing, should us amateurs fret about this silly-links one way ticket.
