And yet my point was never refuted

All of the flaws that come with supply chain attacks on repos also apply to random websites, plus even more flaws that repositories are not as susceptible to or do not apply to repos at all.

Doesn't change that this ^ is a fact you can't refute, so I'm correct. Your entire argument is strawman arguing against claims that I've never made and name calling. You're basically just arguing with yourself. 🤷

Addressing logical fallacies elevates the discussion to place where it can actually be productive, not lowers it.

In multiple replies you failed to even attempt to address the elephant in the room; that you have zero fucking clue how to verify that applications delivered from a repo aren't malicious.

It's not relevant because it applies to both random websites and code repositories equally. Again, please quote me where I claimed that code repositories are not susceptible to this.

Ad hominem is a problem now when you started accusing me of lacking reading comprehension aka stupidity and then ignorance

You've demonstrated both of these, so it is just statement of fact. "you moron" this you?

That's what I thought.

Are you done speed-running through as many logical fallacies as possible? Multiple strawman arguments, no true scottsman/appeal to authority, name calling/ad hominem. You wouldn't have to resort to these if you were just correct, like me.

You're so close to understanding. All of the flaws that come with supply chain attacks on repos also apply to random websites, plus even more flaws that repositories are not as susceptible to or do not apply to repos at all.

Please quote me where I claimed that software repositories are less vulnerable to supply chain attacks.

You were wrong about something, constructed a strawman argument, and are grasping at straws to save face.

Cope.

No, this so obviously AI generated with all of the telltale signs. I'll give it credit for 5 fingered hands but every other detail is absurd.

Because it is an AI generated fake.

• malformed and incorrect patches on the uniform
• the front of the suit is slightly unzipped but the zipper pull is completely missing
• the real suit does not zip up in the front at all... because its a space suit...
• the straps around his shoulders and below his arms feature Schrodinger's buckles that aren't actually buckles if you look closesly
• the capsule is absolutely miniscule and fake, with incorrect and fake details all over it
• lol @ the gear tied down on the top of the capsule like its an SUV that didn't just fall from orbit 😂 that really entertained me
• the dudes in the boat in the background are in each others lap 👅
• is that supposed to be another astronaut peeking out the window??

I'll just paste what I already wrote in hopes that your reading comprehension benefits from reading it a second time:

It literally doesn't matter if it's a publisher site or not, users can't tell the difference and it normalizes clicking links from a web search and running whatever software download the user sees first.

Again, louder this time, PACKAGE REPOSITORIES WILL ALWAYS BE OBJECTIVELY BETTER THAN RANDOM, UNTRUSTWORTHY WEBSITES.

Enjoy your ignorance and viruses

I feel like you've demonstrated very effectively how users lack the skills to understand what they are reading online 😂

Oh I guess I should totally put my confidence in random sketchy websites. Great point!
