Okay, so if that's your actual DNS Server, can you confirm that it works? dig @yourdns debian.org, for example. Afterwards try to use the default DNS of your system dig debian.org. If both works, your DNS config should be fine. Try a curl debian.org -v too.

debian.org is just a random domain for this, use whatever you want. I don't see anything badly configured so far.

    From the output, you don't have any routing rules for your machine that block outgoing traffic. The dig command confirms that you can talk to servers. 9.9.9.9 is a common DNS Server. Based off of this, it seems like your problem is that your system has a bad DNS configuration (it's always DNS).

    Can you parhaps cat /etc/resolv.con? This file normally contains the used DNS servers for Linux systems, unless using special software.

    I'm on vacation. No working. Well, actually I was doing a ton of Selfhosting stuff (migrating my homeserver to proxmox, now at a usable level), but also video games.

    The wordle-analyzer will have to wait until next week, and until I can fix my lifetime compiler errors in the latest commit, and before that: Until I fix my forgejo server that refuses to start after updating the server kernel.

    GNU Coreutils 9.5 Can Yield 10~20% Throughput Boost For cp, mv & cat Commands in c/linux@lemmy.ml
    [–] 1 point 2 years ago

    Good to hear, I've only been in the Linux World for a few years myself, but I was very surprised too. Through I don't think that using cp is any different in terms of creating boot records and a partition table.

    Why would you count Rufus and balena etcher not trustworthy? Sounds like you're to deep in the paranoia, which I completely understand, but gets just impractical "Man yelling at cloud" depending on how deep you are.

    dd is just another program too, why trust dd? Linux is just another Program too, why trust Linux? And so on. You can audit every (OSS) Program if you want in theory, but let's be real, no one does that because time is better spent elsewhere.

    The comment itself is still fully visible, which is especially annoying for longer comments. This changed after the update.

    I've looked for an option to disable but haven't found it. If it's not an option, it would be good to add that option, otherwise I might just not see it?

    Solution: An option for this exists. See comments if you can't find it.

    Structuring Projects: when to include a dependency as a library instead of just calling a command line interface. (feddit.de)

    Hello fellow rustaceans! Recently, there was a thread about how we can grow this community (how can I link to posts across servers?), where I already talked briefly about this topic, saying that I did not know if it is worthy of a full post here, as most things seem to be pretty professional looking links to talks and blogs. I've gotten some encouragement to post it, so here we go:

    When to use a library instead of a CLI

    I'm working on a little project called Autcrate in my free time, which aims to streamline the release and publishing process (what exactly it does isn't really important for this discussion). Autocrate uses git to get the path of the current repo, tags and pushes releases, generates a change log from commits and so on.

    Up until a week ago, I was just using the git2 library crate, which offers the functionalities of libgit2 for rust. While good, using this crate is much more complicated than for example just executing git push from my program using std::process::command. I am only using the porcelain functionalities of git (as of now), so all functionality could be achieved by calling the CLI interface.

    Question

    When is it acceptable to use CLI Commands instead of using libraries provided for that same software?

    Is it generally better to use API/ABI from libraries, or is it maybe even better to use the CLI interface, reducing the list of dependencies?

    Pro and Con of using Commands instead of libraries

    Pro Con
    Reduces the dependencies of a crate Adds a dependency that cannot be tracked by cargo
    Much easier to program for developers The CLI interface is not versioned and might break in the future
    Documentation of the CLI interface is often better than of libraries Bad usage of command cannot be detected at compile time
    Cli program might not be available depending on architecture or platform

    (this is of course not an exhaustive list. I will edit it if something comes up in the thread.)

    Edit

    Alright then. Thank you for your answers. While using the git CLI would probably be fine, since it's very stable and available on most systems (especially those for CI/CD), it might change and is at best hacky. I'll be doing the "right" thing and use libgit2 instead of just calling CLI commands.
