  • Yes, SELinux is enabled (in “enforcing” mode) by default in Fedora. In my experience, it doesn’t hamper usability.

    I remember seeing old advice from blogs and listicles about turning it off, on the theory that it might get in the way. But it’s better to leave it on if you care about security – especially if you want to learn.

    When SELinux blocks a piece of software from doing something sketchy, an alert is generated to explain what happened and why. That’s rare but it’s a learning opportunity for you, not to mention preventing a potential security threat.











  • The middle ground is to put a defined limit on news consumption, like 5 minutes per day. That’s enough to stay aware of major events but not so much that you’d necessarily get wrapped up in excessive worrying about irrelevant items. NPR, the BBC, and probably others, offer 5-minute audio news briefs updated hourly. These are available to stream on demand like a podcast. I wouldn’t recommend listening hourly but the point is they’re up to date at any single time in the day, which you might choose as your daily news blast. Then just tune out, literally and figuratively.
