I'm more of a cyan side of the spectrum but I still dig this.

Yeah, you will, in time. If I recall correctly, Debian gives 3 options for pre-set partitioning and the first one has just enough swap partition for normal usage, and the others are one with enough for hibernation and one with no swap. As for many things, hibernation is also optional in Linux world.

On Windows, there is something similar to swap called hiberfil.sys. You can delete that to gain space if you don't need hibernation. However unlike Windows, swap is also useful for things other than hibernation so we usually include it on our installations even if we have RAM more than 16 GB.

Laptops had so much class back then.

Mirrors are fine since the official website is not accessible on every country. They just suggest verifying the file signature.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 3 points 10 months ago

I see. That makes sense.

Normally there shouldn't be a problem with packaging but Tor documentation recommends it like that to ensure security and authenticity. Even though it's self-updating, they also recommend to delete and re-install it time to time, instead of just updating.

There might not be problems with other packaging but the point here is to not trust anything other than the official sources for maximum privacy I believe.

Well, for Tor Browser even AUR isn't recommended. Just download it from official website and put it under somewhere like ~/.local/opt.

Wow, so kinda like chimerism? Though this is on another level. Couldn't find a wiki page but definitely would like to read about it. By the way, while searching for this, I found about XXYY which I also didn't know about.

I heard about XYY, XXY and even XXX so was wondering about this one. Since it's still 50/50 (more or less) and it has to contain at least one X, I would guess. Still confused by the article title though.

Is YY possible though? Never heard of that one.
