that’d be a package manager gui

It doesn’t have to be a front end to a cli package manager. Technically you could remove pacman and use just a gui package manager since all the operations are done by alpm library.

Nyaomi 2022-08-30 00:05:34
sysfs can only be modified by root if i am not mistaken

Basically opening the files that the kernel provides and writing to them.

Nyaomi 2022-08-30 00:05:37
unless udev

You have to run it as root…

> running a browser as root

ChrisCromer 2022-08-30 00:06:13
So electron in root… Great choice…

That’s why I wrote my own in vala.

capezotte 2022-08-30 00:06:33
at least it only runs verified js sauces
capezotte 2022-08-30 00:07:05
still think shipping it with a udev rule would be best overall

Seems like an average support worker

ChrisCromer 2022-08-30 00:17:34
Most likely.
Nyaomi 2022-08-30 00:18:15
at least he can change his keyboard lights
Nyaomi 2022-08-30 00:18:18
I can’t…
