L’épisode 3 du TP #serveur #web #Linux, édition 2026, spécial débutants en #sysadmin aura lieu exceptionnellement lundi 23/02 à 18h #twitchfr #twitchstreamer #TwitchStreamers #debian #ubuntu #virtualisation #nginx #php #mariadb #wordpress

Just added another sensor to #sysinspect — "procnotify".

In this very short demo: as long as a new process is "bash" (use "zsh", LOL), #sysinspect SIGKILLs it.

Key points:
1. procnotify detects a new process
2. a model is getting triggered (in this case just a process killer)

Currently:
Native: #linux, #netbsd
Others: external fallback path.

Shipped out the first two rehabilitated Thinkpads this morning. These have SSD drives, upgraded RAM and are running Linux Mint instead of the usual bloatware/spyware. Light and lean. Yay for repairability. 🛠️

If there's someone in your life that needs decent laptop for general use, let me know. I will refresh and ship one at no charge. (Donations are welcome, to cover the cost of shipping.)

The bottom cover of a Thinkpad has been removed and sits in the background. The components are visible including CPU fan and upgraded RAM.

These books are over 20 years old. Obviously much has changed since they were released but I still hang onto them since many of the concepts are still relevant.

On a side note: I'd probably find some masochist level of joy running these ancient OSes as daily drivers. 🤣

[$] Open source security in spite of AI

My primary laptop is still on Fedora 42, so I need to take a bit and refresh it. I usually do a full backup and fresh install rather than upgrades.

Debating whether to go to #Fedora 44 once it hits beta, try #Arch or #CachyOS, or move to #Debian Trixie on this machine. I'd lean toward Debian right now, but I'd have to start compiling #niri on my own since it's not available in Debian Trixie, nor does the project supply Debian packages.

Thoughts?

Linux tip: Use “ps aux --forest” for a neat process tree view. The parent-child relationships make it easier to find root causes of system load issues or zombie processes.

Several reasons why Ubuntu Is not a standard Linux experience

You are:
- Outsourcing understanding to system defaults
- Learning Ubuntu-specific syntax not Linux concepts
- Embracing bloat with Snap packages
- Settling for corporate meddling

For running Linux apps on macOS there's now this Wayland compositor that's native to Mac. The demo video features Fuzzel by @dnkl and Niri by @YaLTeR

https://youtu.be/VS3vQp5i8YQ?si=u52YycbIYc5458GK

Looks like the expected way to use it is to run Linux apps on a remote machine and use "waypipe" to display them natively on macOS.

It's novel in that's there's no VM involved.
