linux isnt immune to viruses even though its not as bad as windows
what should i do to be safe if i have a safe browser, vm, but pirate and download risky things? i know its a vm but i still dont want to have to delete everything in the vm if something happens. also the malware doesnt go to the router and spread rigt???
Use Qubes OS. Do not update anything including Tor browser and the OS. Just install the new version as soon as it is released on Qubes OS website. Otherwise you will probably get a virus. I know this from experience, please take this into account
Unsure if you’re joking or not
I’m not joking. I have experienced it a couple of times
You know you can build Qubes from source right? You know you have checksums? Do you know how difficult it is to compromise something like fucking Qubes, thee OS built by people who spend upwards of 12 hours a day obsessing about cyber security? There are too many eyes on it. It’s like saying Emacs is compromised.
I’m not blaming Qubes OS, I’m blaming fedora. I know that Qubes OS itself is reputable and reliable. What do you mean with building from source? So you don’t use the default updater?
I’m sorry, I misread. I thought you wrote to not use Qubes. Do you have any sources regarding the stuff about Fedora? I don’t mean to deboonk you, I am genuinely curious and I dislike fedora anyway for being so commercially oriented.
I myself have experienced it. Of course it would be a very big event if something like that came out from a youtuber but I assure you that Im sure of it because of cosmetic changes in fonts and a lot of slow downs
I mean fonts can change due to updates. Let’s say I update KDE, I might break my theming completely.
Have you ever seen such a change that background of fonts changed from black to red? Or have you experienced such a case that usb operating system wouldnt start in any way?
whats wrng is this bad advice
i have it but theres problems on framework 12
it boots and u can log in but its so slow and unresponsive and the mouse doesnt work (it flies off the screen) and the ui doesnt appear most of the time
do u think its a hardware issue or did i install wrong
A usb mouse wont work to start the OS, so it’s a hardware issue but you are very close. If you have a laptop, you could use the touchpad for the start up
wrong word i ment the touchpad
It should be working normally but I’m not an expert at that. You could buy a desktop computer with a PS/2 keyboard input. You wouldn’t need a mouse with such a setup. But still you should buy a usb mouse to be comfortable
