If someone is going to slit your throat and cut off your dick, would you rather be sober or high?

Have you considered RTFM?

Formatting doesn’t like my input for some reason so I am just going to shorten it to ls -ltc | grep '>'.

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.

Installing from AUR without reviewing the PKGBUILD is a self pwn.

I pay for cell service so I can reach you, not so you can reach me.

You should still inspect the PKGBUILD.

Their choice of distro is the PUREST bro, swear to god bro, TOTALLY PURE UNCUT. Just trust me bro, lots of people are saying bro.

LMAO, generally speaking any modern computer is like half a dozen+ independent computers doing whatever the fuck they want, your “OS” is merely a sandboxed app with very limited access to some of the hardware.

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
  }
}
