I believe it is not possible to have it due to EU regulations, or at least there aren’t any proper ones right now. You can read some discussions about this on Privacy Guides’s discourse, like this one for example: https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/card-masking-tool/15342

I think the TLDR is: use your own bank’s card, as you will always end up with a card which is tied to your identity, so better give that info to as few bank institutions as possible, you gain no advantage by signing up with someone new. On the other hand, if you need to convert and the fees are atrocious, then you could look into Revolut and others like that, but that doesn’t really help your privacy, no matter how many virtual cards you make, since they’re all in your name anyways

They’re too busy compiling the 15678th generation of their systems

There truly is something for everyone! :D

That’s class

You can keep all the lines of those who didn’t accept to the change with the original license, it will end up as a bad mix, but it’s doable if the licenses are compatible

I guess so, it doesn’t hurt if you don’t mind the inconvenience

DivestOS on my tablet

Cool, there are supported tablets now?

Oh I thought that was only Artix, what does CachyOS use?

Rememeber, whenever you break one spaghetto you break one heart 💔

If the client (which encrypts the data in for an E2EE service) is open source and has also been audited by third parties than there’s little reason to do so

You may not understand, but we do.

Is that so? From the issue I read there was no way around it because the two images are fundamentally incompatible once you layer that package, you had to remove the layered package, it seemed from the discussion that they might have “fixed” the base image at some point as a pull request was opened on Pagure. I waited a bit for it to go upstream, but nothing happened for a long time and just went thorugh with the manual intervention, and actually, now that I check it again, the maintainer siosm commented that they can’t accept the PR

Doesn’t Bazzite have the base image modified to have the codecs included already? I think that’s probably why you didn’t experience any disruption there

• Full hardware accelerated codec support for H264 decoding.

Love the irony, but this is painting a little too good a picture

Every update is just… meh. Smooth, new, fresh system not affected by my stupid tweaking and breaking

Most times yes, but major updates usually cause some trouble, like from 39 to 40, you couldn’t do it without uninstalling the codecs for Firefox. Firefox that is installed by default as an RPM, because the Flatpak Firefox doesn’t yet have 100% compatibility with all the features that work with the RPM, so as a user you’re pretty much led to get yourself stuck in this hole, not too difficult to fix in the end, but still a pain to find out and fix.

Everything else is 100% true! And I think it will be always hard to beat as an implementation of immutability (second place only to NixOS imo), A/B partitioning doesn’t hold a candle to OSTree

TL;DR Don’t (unless your needs are really basic or you really don’t want to layer more packages)

Distrobox ftw, its website is pretty good to find all its features and it has a neat GUI BoxBuddy too! And also the generic Pods can be useful for more advanced needs.

Extra tip: if you have more time to spend on learning, I think Nix Home Manager will actually be the better solution in the long run, no need to worry about containers breaking in some way after system updates with scattered solutions that are hard to understand and remember, also you get to bring your configuration anywhere

This sent me down a Polish rabbit hole I’m very happy to have fell into

nahh, you’re lying, and you know that

You use the AUR because you want more packages.
I use the AUR because I believe in humanity.
We are NOT the same.
