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!

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.

boostedI forgot to set up the keybindings for the external monitor.
Now I can mess around with two monitors even on NetBSD 🤣

It's been a while, but just installed (again) the Linux distribution that began my Linux journey 30+ years ago. I've got Slackware running on a Lenovo ThinkPad L14. And it's fun as hell! Exactly as I remember it.

The drop of 32bit support from Linux kernel could not be such a bad thing.
It makes NetBSD from a valid options into a necessity, because I don't count other projects with so many supported obsolete platforms.
I could hope this is going to give better visibility on this OS than it had up today. In general I found the BSDs much more leaner than many other linux distros.
L'abbandono dei 32 bit da parte della Linux Kernel non è detto che si traduca per forza in un male insormontabile.
Piuttosto, trasforma NetBSD da valida opzione ad una necessaria, perché non si contano altri progetti con un numero così alto di piattaforme obsolete supportate.
Posso sperare che questo crei più visibilità su questo OS rispetto a quanto ne abbia fin'ora, e penso che la meriti. In generale trovo i BSD più snelli da usare rispetto a tante distro linux.
