  • I get that it’s memes and all that, but are there a lot of programmer/linux-socks wearing folk? I honestly have no idea.

    Also, considering how alive the meme is, it’s kinda weird that eg. arch’s support-store only sells like stickers and shirts, not a single sock :D



  • as the other commenter said, but worth echoing:

    • is it suddenly using npm to install/run something? (iirc this was the attack vector for most packages that were infected)
    • suddenly added some weird extra wget/curl/whatever to packaging methods to fetch something weird?
    • are the package’s sources (eg. github urls) legit?

    Generally you should be aware of who’se software you’re installing -> check if it’s downloading the stuff from right place, and nothing extra. The PKGBUILD changes in the aur website are pretty good indicator if something has changed and how.

    edit: npm itself, or it’s usage isn’t bad - but it is quite suspicious if the AUR package isn’t for some webapp or so.

    oh, thanks random internet stranger, have a point!

    I did do a cursory search for firewatch wallpapers too, but the darkmode term seems to be the key here. Anyhoo, thanks!

    edit: though, the site has it in fairly low res, all the download options are super compressed and just (badly) upscaled. But gonna look around if I can find a better version
