Re: [arch-general] user namespaces

Also worth noting that one of the first thing any sandbox based on user namespaces will do is *disabling* user namespaces. The programs using them acknowledge them to be a huge security problem. It doesn't work out well when only a subset of processes are running in that container env. The only

Re: [arch-general] Basic questions about Linux's sound system

The consortium is freedesktop.org and it also made wifi-menu. However, in terms of pulseaudio I think in many instances it's more trouble than helpful. For one thing, the terminology in the software is alien to alsa and sometimes pulseaudio gets confused and I have to use a script to correct
