Hello rainaons. I'm having troubles with fonts on my artix linux. As you can see some characters aren't rendered correctly. First picrel is warosu.org without monafont. Second picrel is the website after applying the font. Some characters are now rendered properly but it's not the case for all of them. What to do?
Here's where I downloaded monafont : https://sourceforge.net/projects/monafont/

all links have been base64 encoded because weird URL blocking.
echo '[string]' | base64 --decode

site lists all characters:

d3d3LmNvZ3NjaS5lZC5hYy51ay9+cmljaGFyZC91bmljb2RlLXNhbXBsZS0zLTIuaHRtbAo=

I would also check if your browser is actually using the font you think it is, follow these instructions to verify on your target site:

ZmlyZWZveC1zb3VyY2UtZG9jcy5tb3ppbGxhLm9yZy9kZXZ0b29scy11c2VyL3BhZ2VfaW5zcGVjdG9yL2hvd190by9lZGl0X2ZvbnRzL2luZGV4Lmh0bWwK

Does copying the ff03 character from your browser into the terminal or any other GUI software render it? (lowriter, xed, gedit)

would the locale (fr_FR-UTF-8 from fastfetch) have anything to do with it?

 No.87

just install nerdfonts or some other font with all glyphs to work as a fallback

 No.89

>>87

I think that would help the most. Unless the glyph still does not load with those fonts.

Honestly, I didn't have a bad experience with it. It's way easier to manage daemons with systemd than with runnit.
t. Have used arch in the past and is using artix with runnit

arch sucks. I didn't like that it wasn't as minimalistic as I wanted it to be, didn't find basic minimal tools I use, like wtf, where's st? If you want something "working out of the box" you have to install bunch of shit you will never use, and along the way you trust so much people in the process... BOO-HOO-HOOO.
Short verdict is that those memes you see on the web are made by baseless shills who want you to suffer a bit. Even fed distros don't shill their pet projects so much as do archfags. Let's be real, they need put a RED sign on their website "NEEDS SOME ASSEMBLY". You're not a jewtube distro reviewer, right.

The only thing Arch itself claims to is a minimal base install, flexibility and rolling release packages. When you say 'they' it makes me think you're speaking of 'tubers which aren't an authoritative source, you should do your own research. I don't think any distro has literally everything.

>they just don't and you have to compile and a lot

Arch is kind of a compromise because it still uses systemd and the whole ecosystem doesn't really encourage you to make a simple system by design. Void is much more stable, never breaks because of a "bleeding edge" update, but lets you get all your software and continuously update and is pretty clean.

Also, I do think it's good to have a basic st binary available, but the point of st is compile it yourself.

is this true rainon?
https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2024-11-15-why-i-stopped-using-openbsd.html
is obsd just blows up in your face with hellfire and deletes your data? i used obsd for 5 picoseconds and it was rock solid, as a server though, and 0,23 picoseconds as desktop.
All i know is that it lacks fast filesystems (joke), which i asked around and NOBOD.Y. responded, but if it brokes itself, then nugh-ugh, not gonna make it.... XDDDD

OpenBSD is great, but Solene is pressured by firces in the "DevOps market" to switch to linux to facilitate making enough money.
Also, she says:
>I don't know, I have never been able to pinpoint why I got so many crashes although everyone else seem to have a stable experience with OpenBSD.
And she still used it for years. So if that's your concern don't worry too much. Still make backups though! Whatever OS you're on.

For a while I have been intending to upgrade or get a new PC. It is quite a lot of things to handle and get comfortable with but my main issue is honestly how to even budget in 2025 and to acquire components that arent high end (whilst ignoring the techbros that insist and only list the high end when doing research)

So how does anyone else acquire their components?
factory sealed or used?
old or new?
Do you look into the next 5 years?
Do you buy power that you just don't need?

I think there's only a need to buy high-end hardware if you have high-end purposes. Middle of the range is perfectly sufficient for most people.
It used to be the case your hardware would be obsolete within a few years, these days it seems to improve far more slowly. RIP Murphy's Law. I guess that's to do with the minimum size of circuitry, quantum mechanics stuff.
If I can take care of it, I'm sure my navi will be good for a long time.

>old or new?

Always second-hand personally, as long as there's nothing visibly wrong with it. Paying the new hardware premium doesn't make much difference, usually.

Yeah pretty much, a few years ago I was very comfortable on a Core 2 Duo with 2 GB of DDR2 RAM. What I have now feels like more than I need.

 No.4

yea like nixx said, there isnt much point in getting powerful components if all youre gonna do is shitpost online
it only makes sense to 'buy power that you just don't need' if you expect to do more and more intense tasks over time, like if you are a w*ndows user since m*cros*ft doubles the system requirements every year
but if you were gonna use your computer to do real computer stuff, youd know it
like image/video editing and gaming
so unless you have special needs, id say just but sth 2nd hand tbh
thats how i got the last computer that i actually paid for

 No.5

didnt find any info on pluto on amd chips so that's kinda where you should limit yourself?
in any case it is joeover with unknown number of hidden chips inside your ryzen

as for gpu they have their own fucking bios in them
ddr5 still vulnerable to rowhammer variants
and where are PS/2 ports?

 No.46

Old high end is cheap second hand. I like powerful workstation laptops that companies replace.
Good build quality, great screens and keyboards and often top tier specs for their time.
It's more than enough and a lot cheaper than any new mid tier.

New parts for my gaeyming PeeCee but I'm a richfag paying the convenience tax. I know people who used eBay parts to assemble perfectly good Fortnite/CounterStrike/Rivals machines.
My laptop is a 5-year-old chromebook that I flashed with coreboot & installed Debian. 2 cores + 4GB enough to run a modern web browser which is realistically the most intensive application a vanilla user will need to run.
This of course assumes one is using not using modern windows, which requires 6 cores and 16GB ddr4 at an absolute minimum to be practically usable.

i would like to build a network intrusion detection system on linux my end goal is to detect some irregular network activiy (scan or ddos) im terrible at programming and this is the maximum i think i can do

i think it would be possible to use machine learning for pattern detection and ai for a attack summary but i dont know what to use for packet capture and im scared of eBPF and the documentation i see isnt friendly

anyone have tooling suggestions or tutorials? the project i think is most similar is sharpeye but maybe someone knowns something else

lost

 No.43

automated nids doesn't make any sense on a small scale
generating a statistical overview is good enough
just look at it yourself
a list of all ips will give enough insight to notice anything being wrong

 No.44

have something that also logs the processes associated with the ips on the server that might get intruded
that can also make it very obvious something went wrong if an unknown process starts making connections

 No.45

thank you rainon(s)

one will try
