It's a minimal system information utility for Slackware, inspired by the philosophy of ufetch while providing a few extra details such as installation age, glibc version, and Flatpak package count.

The goal is to keep the code small, readable, and easy to hack.

Another great shout out to @vermaden for this thorough introduction to #FreeBSD, especially if one is coming from #Linux. It may be several years old but much of the info is still relevant today.

The FreeBSD Handbook is great but the additional details and context for the topics covered are where this document really shines.

This needs to be required reading for anyone curious about the OS.

Ah, yes, the two types of #Linux users.

Inspiring from a @bsdcan attendee: “Our traditional #FreeBSD-based product is more profitable than our #Linux-based ones.

The glass does not exist, the universe is a simulation and have successfully muted all alerts about it.

Here's some #vintage #tech for you. This is the Data General Nova 2. These 16-bit #minicomputers were very popular in the 1970s. Coincidentally this #photo was taken in the office of my last job, the #basement of a #government #research facility. I didn't take the photo but the link to the post is below.

I spent just over two years here managing #Linux and #Solaris servers. My #cubicle was just around the corner from these #machines, below flickering fluorescent lights. Exactly what you'd expect from working in the basement of a government building.

While these systems haven't been in use for decades and should have been in a museum, they were still on the books and inventoried annually. 🤦‍♂️

haha. Joke asides, there are few ways to ignore bash aliases. For example, to ignore python alias, type the `command` followed by alias name:
```
command python ...
```
Both \ and " symbols allows you to run real python command and ignore python alias at the CLI:
```
\python ...
"python" ...
```
Or just full path:
```
/usr/bin/python ...
```

This is meme about Linux or Unix CLI especially alias feature offered by bash. An inmate in prison asks a small fellow inmate, "What you in for?" The small inmate replies that they added 'alias python=echo "bash: python: command not found"' to a friend's .bashrc file. The large inmate backs away in terror, yelling, "Dude, WTF?!"

Why Drawing Tablet Brands Won't Collaborate on Linux FLOSS Drivers

After investigation; Gaomon, XpPen, and Huion won't collaborate on open-source drivers because of outdated naming conventions. Here's what I learned from direct contact with their technical teams, and what I plan to do to move forward.

It happened.

I don't know WHEN it happened, sometime recently, I suppose, but I now find myself opening terminal windows to do things instead of using graphical apps.

I'm typing in commands - with flags - from memory.

Commands are working on the FIRST TRY instead of the third...or twelfth.

I can edit config files and understand the syntax and structure.

I'm making my own aliases.

I want a new keyboard.

Holy shit!

strncpy() has been removed from the #Linux kernel. All former callers have +been migrated to safer alternatives. strncpy() is major source of bugs. The replacements are listed now.

FYI, this is starting from Linux kernel v7.2 but it was the need of the hour.

Every one is a #Linux expert until they try to install #Nvidia drivers on a fresh Debian install 👩🏻‍💻

@rl_dane can’t wait to install #Linux on « old » Macs 🐧❤️🍏

What’s stopping you from building a nice little home lab running multiple VMs, a personal DNS resolver with Ad blockers, a ZFS based NAS and firewall with #Linux or #FreeBSD? 🤔

Just finished building the major Slackware updates (Plasma 6 plus a huge number of core package updates) under Open Source UTM using paravirtualised mode on Apple Silicon M2.

UTM has been absolutely rock solid throughout. Had to revert to the HoneyComb LX2 (16×2GHz cores, 32GB RAM) tho, because I couldn’t dedicate enough memory to the VM -- the host’s OOM killer started terminating some of the large KDE package builds.

Dreaming of a Mac Mini M4 for the main build host...

Thx to AI Linux will soon stop being a platform for retrocomputing hardware. Old hw support is getting deprecated to reduce the attack surface.

Meanwhile the Linux Foundation is creating its nth AI/crypto related group.

#opensource #linux #ai #cybersecurity #retrocomputing #retrogaming

@jbz

I think #linux was already heading in that direction, but I guess with #ai it will speed it up. From my perspective #linux is owned by large corporations and regular users are a very low priority.

There is always #NetBSD :) I am on 11.0 RC5 on a #T430 and it is working great, granted you have to pay attention to the hardware you use/find/but. Plus #NetBSD seems to be dedicated to keeping old hardware out of landfills.

Rust is becoming a major part of the #Linux kernel. Even long time C veteran Greg Kroah Hartman (GKH) supports the shift. Rust is next big thing if you are into kernel or device drivers or other stuff where memory safety is essential for security reasons
