  • It’s open-source merely to comply with the GPL license of the kernel, but the fact is that an Android image built only from open source components will be extremely crippled or, depending on your point of view, basically useless. Such an image will not even boot on the majority of devices ; you’ll need those sweet proprietary driver blobs if you want your phone to do anything, and a bunch more closed source binaries in order to use Play services.


  • In tmux, you usually set configuration options with set -g in tmux.conf. “-g” sets a global option which will apply to all new windows and sessions, otherwise the option applies only for the current window, which is usually not what you want.

    Since command-alias is an array, you can use the -a flag to append a new value at the end.

    With that said, try this:

    set -ga command-alias s="new-window ssh foo"
    

    Keep in mind that run in tmux runs a shell command in the background, so you most likely want to use something like new-window or new-session instead.








  • I basically agree with all the points you are making. Only scan downloads, email attachments and whatnot. Don’t try to play cat and mouse with sophisticated malware because that’s a waste of resources. I don’t think software like this exists?

    Perhaps SELinux on desktop is the way to go as other posts are suggesting, although I heard that it has some usability problems and can break some programs.

    You might be legitimately annoyed by the amount of free antivirus software on Windows that don’t offer good protection, on top of being filled with ads. But I don’t agree that scanning for malicious files and preventing dangerous commands (regardless of how good the implementation is) can be labelled as snake oil.

    I don’t understand why we keep telling new users that it is useless to use an antivirus on Linux. For people with computer knowledge, sure. However more widespread Linux adoption will mean more casual users will start using it. Most of them don’t have the “common sense” that is often mentioned ; these users will eventually fall for scams that tell them to run programs attached in emails or random bash scripts from the internet. The possibility is small, but it’s not zero, so why not protect against it?
