With a DNS whitelist, all incoming packets are dropped unless the address is on the list. It is like ad block, but reversed. You are not blocking known ad servers, but all servers except those you actually want to connect to. It is a pain in the ass to look at logs and white list all the time. In reality, you only visit around a hundred sites or less that you actually need or want to connect to. Nothing gets in except what you want. That kills most vulnerabilities.

DNS whitelist firewall on a router. Deny everything that is not whitelisted by address and port.

It will mean the forking of the internet. I will not use the digi slave net. I do not give a shit if that means I am on a digital island. Over time, my island will be worth a fortune. These people never took statistics. They do not know t4t and the prisoner’s dilemma. Attenuation cannot amplify. When the Hitler switch is flipped, they rarely survive the decade. If you are on an island, just wait them out while they go backwards. They will catch back up eventually. They are just the next wave of al qaida Jihadists warring to end liberal democracy, flying data centers instead of planes. Improve your book collection. This is a war on intelligence via information and absolutely seditious in intentions. •»ÀĪÙ¬§¬¶¬×

Saw it on the Big Island in Hawaii. Bat shit amazing.

Most of it.

Probably nothing helpful as you are already way past my understanding. Maybe look at the Darktable documentation or even the “green lantern” stuff (IIRC the name). GL or (something) Lantern is/was an open source software for Canon cameras that breaks out all DSLR features on nearly any Canon camera.

Nearly a decade ago, I had a makeshift product photography studio and messed with Macbeth color charts and profiles matched to a monitor. The tutorial guides I followed were from these two projects IIRC. GL.

Inherited wealth nepotism knows no bounds. Human intelligence is not hereditary, wealth is. That cancer is terminal.

Complex social hierarchy is a super important aspect to account for too. In the proprietary software realm, you infer confidence in the accumulated wealth hierarchy. In FOSS the hierarchy is not wealth, but reputation like in academia or the film industry. If some company in Oman makes some really great proprietary app, are you going to build your European startup over top of it? Likewise, if in FOSS someone with no reputation makes some killer app, the first question to ask is whether this is going to anchor or support a stellar reputation. Maybe they are just showing off skills to land a job. If that is the case, they are just like startups that are only looking to get bought up quickly by some bigger fish. We are all conditioned to think in terms of horded wealth as the only form of hierarchy, but that is primitive. If all the wealth was gone, humans are still fundamentally complex social animals, and will always establish a complex hierarchy. This is one of the spaces where it is different.

It ain’t bad till in the middle things… or the night, ya wind up somehow tasting it.

The main problem is when following instructions for command line tools. They might figure out how to use dnf instead of apt, but the extra layers required for ostree are not very friendly. There are a ton of potential frustrations in this area, especially with GPU stuff or hobbyist hardware like Arduino where kernel stuff is needed in userland. At least as of nearly 3 years ago, the documentation in this area sucks. I was on Silverblue for a few years and managed to get through the frustrations due to intermediate experience level. I found toolbox useless compared to distrobox. But using this with something like Arduino was annoying at best. The needed dependencies expected by whatever stuff I wanted to install was usually a big mystery with near useless error failure messages and names of packages and libraries totally unrelated to the package naming in DNF. When updating the base OS, stuff built in these containers is totally useless because I could not update the containers to the new OS image. Playing around with Flash Forth on a microcontroller was even worse. I ended up layering a bunch of stuff on the host because the containers were just not working. When I got an Nvidia machine, I went to Fedora Workstation and have had far fewer issues and frustrations. SB wasn’t bad, but it is a pain to use these if you need kernel level access. Just my $0.02. I was actually on SB for ~2-3 years.
