I have an old #Surface tablet that I cannot update to Win11 because the #!@%$§ installer always errors. Since my other computers are on #Linux, thinking about installing it here too...
Would @alpinelinux be a good choice here? Does it work with the surface kernel? Or should I go with @fedora - same as on my surface pro?

For Omarchy Quattro #Linux there's tool to search through commands and execute them viamenu as an alternative to memorizing so many keyboard shortcuts.
There's a pull request to enable a keybindings IPC on #Sway to support that, along with a script to use Fuzzel for the same kind of search-and-execute app:

Been using #Deskflow with my #Debian #Linux #KDE #Plasma #Wayland box as the "server" and my #NetBSD #ctwm #X11 laptop as the "client" or second screen.
It's amazing that it works, but it's buggy. I'll get a few repeat keystrokes, and sometimes the control key gets stuck.
P.S. Thanks to @etam for this solution: https://im-in.space/@etam/117162772780969631

I know @liw's claim to fame is he witnessed these events in person.
I can at least say I read #Linus' post contemporaneously (well, days later — it *was* #Usenet).
I thought: “such a ramble-y post; it's going anywhere! & it can't run on my 286!?!?”
I *was* a 17 year old kid then. 🤣
I also think of that post every time I see #LinuxFoundation act all “big & professional” in their pompous way & #RMS act childishly w/ #GNU like it's his toy. Both happen often.

On this day in 1991 some college kid in Finland told people on Usenet he would not be doing a big and professional operating system. It would later be called Linux.

The real skill is understanding a problem well enough to make the solution simpler. KISS.
Niklaus Wirth was writing about this over 30 years ago:

Looking at today's software, what projects do you think have become unnecessarily complex?
systemd comes to mind for me. What else?
The "Actually what you are referring to as #Linux " copypasta has gone so far the last version of the Linux manual (v6.18) now says "GNU+Linux" instead of "GNU/Linux" 🤭

Hey, it seems the Fediverse has more Linux users and developers than most places, and also a lot more people with strong and informed ideas about LLMs.
So maybe https://www.debian.org/vote/2026/vote_002 is something that people here want to vote on. Options are:
- No LLM contributions to Debian via Social Contract
- Allow AI-Assisted Contributions with conditions
- Reject LLMs as far as practical, update Code of Conduct
- Accept AI contributions for Debian specific work
- Responsible Use of Generative AI
- A cautious approach to generative AI
- Debian is created by humans
- Avoid the use of LLM: climate destruction is a deal breaker
[edit: voting closes in one week, on Aug 28th]
I just accidentally discovered that my N150's USB-C port also supports video output, and it works perfectly on Linux.
Not only that, but over Type-C it drives my monitor at 120 Hz, whereas over HDMI it's limited to 60 Hz. I had no idea!

boostedA decade ago I worked with a guy whose opinion on tech I respected a lot. He was one of the most anal people I've ever known, in a (mostly) good way. His OS of choice was BSD.
Linus and crew's recent nonsense got me doing searches for OSes with no-AI policies. Lo and behold, seems that Iain was on to something all this time!
Got my first system up with NetBSD and my preferred Mate desktop this morning. It was fun, and a little challenging. :-) Reminded me of working with Solaris years ago, and of my first experiments with Linux (on PPC!) even more years ago. Installing and configuring NetBSD is not hard, but it does require me to pay attention, read a bit of documentation, and make decisions. I love that!
Thanks, Linus, for pointing me at what may be my new favorite OS. And thank you, Iain, for planting the seed that made me decide to give it a serious look this time around.
I can see myself going back to Slackware as my daily OS. This has been an extremely fun day of "relearning" what got me into Linux and open source more than 30 years ago.
Oh shit, oh fuck, a ZFS backup mounted over the top of the NAS.
So /var/lib from one machine became /var/lib on the NAS.
This ran for *months*.
I only noticed because Docker just shat itself (/var/lib/docker)
Help me, #AskFedi #ZFS #Linux gurus.
Hilarously, I am missing backups of this system's config, except for what etckeeper got.
I think I boot a LiveUSB (Ubuntu Server will have ZFS), back up my "new" /var/lib and old /var/lib (to fucking where?) then revert to the "old" dataset by nuking the incorrect dataset completely.
Just gotta find a "cisco" style serial cable...

I'm impressed that my thinkpad's touchscreen and even multi-touch pinch-to-zoom gestures work under #Devuan.
Given the "politicizing*" of #systemd and #linux, and all that flaming bullshirt, I was expecting endless breakage.
* Used in the sense of "trying to exert dominance like pissy little weaklings," not "trying to bring attention to the plight of human beings being crushed by supposedly powerful people."
Dang, I binged too much #TedLasso. Roy Kent's directness is rubbing off on me. 😂
Fuck Torvalds and Poettering.
Ok, that's too much now.
