I noticed that Mint is working on LMDE which uses Debian as its base directly without using Ubuntu; I wonder if this is one of the reasons motivating that project and what the other reasons are.
Ideal would be if you could issues U2F hardware keys but not everyone supports that yet. I've seen KeePassXC used effectively as it works on Widows, macOS, and Linux.
It is an Electron app. A couple of simple online searches lead to that conclusion. It may be that MS still wanted to test/tweak it before packaging or releasing it for Linux
I want to root for it but I think the LGPL license ruins it as long as there are BSD or MIT licenses alternatives that are good enough. Firefox might implement it but I think there’s zero change that Chromium or Safari add support.
I think that LGPL for the encoder is exactly the right choice. A format's strength is in uniform support; taking a MIT-licenced encoder and making an improved incompatible format won't be great for end users.
Not explicitly, but in practice, it does. It is often not viable to jump through the hoops required to do it. That is, if your lawyers will even let you try.
Having it as a dynamic library is not enough. It has to be a dynamic library tgat you can replace. This doesn’t work when, for instance, distributing through many app stores.
They could conceivably buy a different license from the author, if the author were to be interested in that, and if the author's the only contributor and didn't derive their code from othe LGPL code, etc, etc.
"NetBSD 9.0 is bringing with it support at long last for ARMv8/AArch64 64-bit ARM..."
Ironic that the BSD that's legendary for "running on a toaster" and whose slogan is "of course it runs NetBSD" is just now gaining support for these not-exactly-rare chips/architectures.
To me, that reads like the commentor displayed plenty of clue. The use of 'the' here highlights NetBSD in particular while tacitly acknowledging that other BSDs may have gotten there first.
I think not, the commentor states that all BSD's are multipurpose and "system promiscuous" as NetBSD is as it's infamous to be ported to alien platforms such as the Dreamcast.
An AMD laptop for 200-250 would be a steal, IMO. The performance is far better (for comparison https://openbenchmarking.org/result/1912177-HU-MANJAROPO12) and x86 support is something I wouldn't want to pass on if I didn't have to. Unfortunately, even the cheapest ones in Germany go for at least 330 Euros.
