[16:00:17] n1tr0 hi all

[16:01:03] n1tr0 what does genisoimage do? is it 100% floss? is it shady in any way, shape, or form? i am trying to run a super lean system, installing the fewest things possible.

[16:01:09] n1tr0 hi ComputerTech

[16:01:33] n1tr0 i guess it generates images using .iso files.

[16:01:37] n1tr0 errr.

[16:02:01] n1tr0 i guess it generates images using the data found on CDs & DVDs, and allows endusers to save that data as an .iso file.

[16:02:29] n1tr0 what about wodim?

[16:02:42] n1tr0 that name is not quite as self-explanatory.

[16:03:18] n1tr0 is wodim 100% floss? is it shady in any way/shape/form. I want zero speye wear on my system.

[16:10:10] n1tr0 lol

[16:10:14] n1tr0 hi brothchild

[16:10:34] n1tr0 do you know if all of these pieces of software are 100% open source and have 0% shady content in their code?:

[16:10:37] n1tr0 cdw genisoimage libburn4 libiso9660-11 wodim

[16:11:16] n1tr0 Shahid: Oldies are goldies.

[16:11:58] n1tr0 Fedora is speye wear.

[16:12:10] n1tr0 Been caugh redhanded, multiple times, for many years now. So is RedHat.

[16:12:18] n1tr0 That is why I abandoned it.

[16:12:48] n1tr0 it was a backdoor, that allowed the inn essay to read your files.

[16:12:52] n1tr0 or some such.

[16:12:58] n1tr0 i don't remember the details.

[16:13:19] n1tr0 lol

[16:17:28] n1tr0 Choosing an OS is like jumping from one sinking ship to another.

[16:18:21] n1tr0 Shahid: Well if they're old, they are most likely trustworthy. More modern means more ways to bypass firewalls to watch you jack off.

[16:22:17] n1tr0 sadly, space is at a premium in my bedroom. I was forced to place my desktop PC case on its side, and then place my LED monitor on top of the case.

[16:22:35] n1tr0 But now it cannot read CDs & DVDs.

[16:22:51] n1tr0 I guess gravity pulls them out of the tray.

[16:22:58] n1tr0 sigh.
