Its already in your word. Proportional. A proportional control, or P control (generally, a PID with the K_I and K_D set to 0)

Alright some edit as I will try to explain my answer. Say for example a value ‘x’ is > 0 and < 100 (so, 0 < x < 100). In this case, the point that you wanted to reach is 100, such that x is always getting bigger and closer to 100 (x->100). If you subtract x from 100, you get the remaining, call it ‘y’, that you need to add to get to 100 (y=100-x). So now, the rate of change must be proportional to that number. I.e., as x gets closer to 100, y will get smaller. How much faster is determined by a proportionality constant, that can be called K_P.

Easy or not depends vary wildly. But the usual task is

• partition the drive
• format the drive
• mount the drive
• install the base system

That is the bare minimum, but we need to do more configuration to be able to boot. Hence the next task is configuring the following

• fstab
• timezone, hostname, and networking
• boot loader (I just use the EFI directly nowadays)

That is it. Everything else is usually work specific. Like, if you wanted arch to be a server, you usually didn’t install a GUI. For workstation and gaming, you need more steps but it will vary depending on hardware. The archwiki covers a good deal of hardware from laptop to desktop and their quirks.

To be fair, he could also just be fed up after a long time being ignored for what he thinks is quite an important design decision.

For NAT, there is apparently a way to traverse NAT. I haven’t tried it tho, but the dude has a lot of research on the topic (NAT traversal), so if that didn’t work, maybe others will

Thanks for the information! Unfortunately, linux users are small in my country. There are rarely any events held here. But this is giving me an idea on how to help people revive their old hardware!

Oh my god this is a great idea. Why is there no more event like this‽

Yep. Already edited my comment too

I was curious and then trying to edit the contrast, sure enough. This is 3×

It means it isn’t there. I don’t see the hue either. Which leaves, screen issue.

Edit: It seems like a contrast issue? I took the screenshot and modified it contrast value -3×

Punch cards are gonna be back baby

Another alternative is distrobox and bedrock linux.

You’re welcome. I also recommends Arch Wiki on SELinux. It helps clarify a lot of things and how different it is with traditional linux privilege escalation.

Right, working on every device requires a hardware solution. I haven’t encountered any such hardware yet but I do know that it is possible. Next, your second requirement makes what you’re trying to accomplish impossible. Privilege escalation by definition will escalate the privilege. The problem lies in the fact that the root user is basically a god in linux. You can even wipe your system if you so desire. However, you can read more into SELinux or other similar systems. It works by basically running check on the kernel level not user level. But the only solutions I can think of will make other day-to-day tasks more of a hassle. Also, note that whoever knows how to modify the SELinux can also bypass the system. I found an answer on serverfault that points to a blog. However, I haven’t read the blog yet. You may find an answer there.

By definition, you can’t. Any software level solution will fail since you can just move the drive somewhere else. It must be baked into the hardware and firmware.

Edit to add further clarification. Do you need it to be failing on every device or just on a device that you control? Since as stated before, moving a mass storage will completely overthrow any software solution

Wait… what does select all and select none do?

Holy shit that is one heck of a thing to do.

TIL about bus factor

No, not just the installer. Actually the installer doesn’t even matter here as its sole purpose is placing the binary. GPL applies when you make modifications to the program AND you distribute the program. GPL states that you MUST also give the source of the modified binary WHEN requested by those who got the modified program (this is very simplifying it)

This is a very fucking apt analogy!

Damn, I thought for some unknown ungodly reason Valve implemented something like game pass for Proton.
