Hands-On: Manjaro Linux on the Raspberry Pi 4

My previous post looked at Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi 4. This time I’m going to try installing Manjaro Linux, with two different desktops on two different Pi models.

In my previous post, I walked through Installing Ubuntu Linux 20.10 on a Raspberry Pi 4. That went pretty well, with both the standard Gnome desktop and the MATE desktop. This time, because I am not much of an Ubuntu fan, I want to try a Linux distribution, which I prefer and have been using on my various laptop and desktop systems: Manjaro.

Open-source software: How many bugs are hidden there on purpose?

Backdoors and ‘bugdoors’ might be hard to spot but they put open-source security at risk.

Microsoft-owned GitHub, the world’s largest platform for open-source software, has found that 17% of all vulnerabilities in software were planted for malicious purposes.

GitHub reported that almost a fifth of all software bugs were intentionally placed in code by malicious actors in its 2020 Octoverse report, released yesterday.
