That’s right! It goes in the Linux hole.

I heard they replaced snaps with their own package format.


What is this? The site seems to forward to thaihut.org despite the UK domain name that was registered on Jan 9th this year. It’s full of random articles, most with AI generated images, all ‘penned’ by “Max Olivier” in English but the contact page is in french.
It’d be nice to read an actual journalist’s analysis of this but the article seems to just be mass generated AI slop.


Or your boss’.
If you’re given a new tool and told to use it in your work, you need to be given time to learn how to use it and find problems. If your boss gives you a new (not to mention unreliable) tool and less time to work within, you’re both going to have a bad time™.


Dang, it could be the upstream DNS server passing along client queries. Maybe the ISP?
In that case not even curl would be safe unless you could ensure all queries only resolve on your gear. Either use a host file entry or local DNS server.


Have you sent the URL across any messaging services? Lots of them look up links you share to see if it’s malware (and maybe also to shovel into their AI). Even email services do this.
There are tools like snapper and btrbk that periodically make snapshots. Since btrfs is a COW filesystem, the live subvolume just stores newer changes on top of the snapshot — it doesn’t need to copy anything until it changes. Only when file data is no-longer referenced is it actually marked free to overwrite. This can make disk usage a bit un-intuitive since you can have large files stuck in snapshots that don’t show up in your live subvolumes but still use up space. It can really save you from serious mess ups and is really cheap in terms of performance. It’s also possible to send snapshots over a network to another machine if you want longer term backups without keeping them on local disks.
Ironically, the conclusion is that the stupidly high claimed sample rates are a good indicator that these dongles won’t be afflicted by this bandwidth-scheduling problem. Though they can have various other issues.


They’re both camelcase. Your one is dromedaryCase, the OP is using BactrianCase.


Hmm I guess for optimum performance, best practice would be to sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /; sudo fstrim -av; sudo reboot


Was it not so bad when the (ex) soviets did it?
They haven’t modified apt; they abuse an extra version number that supercedes the major version number of a package. I think it’s meant to be used for new packages that reuse the name of an abandoned project. Canonical publish packages for software like Firefox that depend on snapd and just run snap install firefox instead of actually installing anything. Since they bumped that extra version number, their packages always have a higher precedence than even the officially packaged debs from Mozilla.


Where they’re keeping my crew.


This is the way.
Yup. Even if you add the official mozilla repos, Cannoical adds a prefix to their version so it always takes precedence over the official release. You have to pin the mozilla repo to blacklist the snapped version.
Same goes for Thunderbird.
I’m sure Snap has some security advantages for many users but they’ve made it so user-hostile for those who use native browser extensions or who want to automate deployments with just one packaging system.
Anyway, rant over - fuck Snap.
You’re going to lose Snap? That is an option, you know.

I see. Surely that means that the source files have to be structured in a certain way then. If a design for a piece of print media was flattened to a single rasterised layer, or a video project had all the effects baked into the clips, a freelancer could deliver in the right format, but that file would be much less useful than if every operation was preserved non-destructively. I would think some artists wouldn’t want to just give away how they achieve certain effects.
I don’t know if that’s much of a thing in creative fields, or if there are conventions on things like keeping text as text, not editing it as vectors or pixels.
