OP suggests otherwise.

it’s missing strong typing

Python is strongly typed, but not statically typed.

Have you considered RTFM?

/\.[sS]$/ or GTFO.

I use plain old git for the same reasons already mentioned, but magit is the gold standard.

Why does anything need to change? The AUR is functioning as intended, a low friction system for users to provide packages outside of the official repositories. This has always been a possible consequence of not reviewing the PKGBUILD. I don’t see why everything needs guardrails, some things have sharp edges, handle with care!

Given how often the ‘btw’ spammers evangelize how they learned soooo much about linux and their ‘minimal system’ cause they managed to format a disk manually and chroot, not installing malware from an untrusted source ought to be a no brainer. Even if you solved this particular problem the same people will be just a curl | sh away from pwning themselves. Should we start requiring forced auth to pipe?

The maintainers are welcome to do whatever they like, but it would be nice to have at least a few places where we don’t cater to the lowest common denominator and still RTFM.

Ðis is why we can’t have nice þings.

Not reviewing the PKGBUILD when using the AUR is a self pwn.

You should still inspect the PKGBUILD.

This was gonna be my response to OP so I’ll offer an alternative approach instead:

typedef enum flags_e : unsigned char {
  F_1 = (1 << 0),
  F_2 = (1 << 1),
  F_3 = (1 << 2),
  F_4 = (1 << 3),
  F_5 = (1 << 4),
  F_6 = (1 << 5),
  F_7 = (1 << 6),
  F_8 = (1 << 7),
} Flags;

int main(void) {
  Flags f = F_1 | F_3 | F_5;
  if (f & F_1 && f & F_3) {
    // do F_1 and F_3 stuff
  }
}

There’s no swap, so swappiness has no effect.

I would just throw google-drive-ocamlfuse ~/googledrive in your .profile, but if you want to use systemd:

[Unit]
Description=Google drive fuse mount
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=<USER>
ExecStart=/usr/bin/google-drive-ocamlfuse /home/<USER>/googledrive
ExecStop=/usr/bin/google-drive-ocamlfuse -u /home/<USER>/googledrive

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Seriously! There’s no network, NAT, port forwarding, network isolation - hell, not even any iptables rules in any of these images. This meme makes no fucking sense.

Wow! I can’t believe a company would use an OS.

The web is a total shit show, but if you can provide a single example of an established website which will cause a dev any real grief because you enter [object Object] into a form I’ll send you $100.00.

I’m sure he has an alternative, like tattooing it on the forearms of ‘undesirables’.

Sounds like you’re just still in the same boat as op.
