i just read there is even some kind of macro for switching all modules to built-in:
make mod2yesconfig
# and/or
make localyesconfig
Also, the module blacklist file may accept wildcards, so you can blacklist all modules. And there is a sysctl switch "kernel.modules_disabled", which lets you switch module changes off and on as required. Then again, an attacker who gained root to load modules could also re-enable it and de-blacklist his modules; so this is a lot weaker.
//edit: the blacklist is useless for security, because it only affects easy module loading with modprobe, not using insmod what an attacker would use.
compiling a kernel from the provided source is surprisingly easy tho. you can start with the default config from your distro, just toggle the options you want different in the menuconfig and compile it. there are howtos. also, once a pro has done it, they can share the config for others with similar setups.
if you fail and your kernel is broken, you can just use the old one again until you get it right. just don't overwrite the old one when putting it where the boot loader is looking for it and give the new one it's own boot loader entry.
This problem solved, but whenever you change your network or IP and then periodically, your phone will report to Firebase, so you can receive push notifications.
You can block those with software that simulates a local VPN with a filter, but you won't get any more push notifications. Now push notifications are not just the ones you see. Some apps use invisible ones to get infos they need to work.
if you don't want modules, you can compile a monolithic kernel. i have done so for a few years. it saves time if you run something like gentoo or LFS, because you don't need an initrd and no mechanisms for loading modules. it has the downside of not being able to change some parameters during runtime, ie. you have to reboot and pass different parameters via booloader. you can then also switch off support for loading modules.
However, the situation has been more or less like today for more than 6000 years. In some regions and on some subjects it got even a lot better. So this "nightmare" is actually totally normal, just not ideal and chances are very good humans will some day overcome it and live in an ideal situation.
I did this at school a lot, where we had to use these to store our files created during class. But I preferred to slide one finger over what is the top edge in the OP, because there is a small gap where you can catch the slide. I found this much more satisfying.
it's a way of getting rid of people without significant legal follow up. everything that led to the deportation can be a sham, because once they're out of the country nobody from the government gives AF any more.
Yeah, I didn't expect such a detailed answer, because I just wanted to remind our US friends, if eggs become too expensive, they can get a chicken, if they have space. I'm from EU and I'm probably not allowed to have a chicken on the balcony of my appartment or in the apartment buildings nice garden. It would be a mess. It was definitely a good read though and if I ever move to a home with a garden I own alone, having chickens is not off the table.
I'm on Linux and have a large variety of Javas to choose from. (Currently having 2 installed in parallel. Don't remember ones name, but the other is Temurin.) Is it different on Windows? Why don't they just switch?
All my private projects compile and run on both and even my favorite old Java game Spiral Knights works after some CLI parameter tweaking for modern JVMs.
It's not paranoia. There are a few people who think "woke" is a bad thing, when it is really not. It's not just entertaining for audiences to see a large variety of characters, but also reflects the global population and minorities. Most people actually enjoy seeing things from different perspectives and exotic scenarios. People complaining about this are close-minded and boring, but unfortunately think their complaints are a wide spread opinion. They are not.
