The comments on Phoronix definitely took a racist turn…

My understanding is that it boots faster. That’s a nice thing to have on a container that spins up on demand.

That’s news to me - and a bit of a dick move.

New Thinkpads are still great Linux laptops, so there’s a steady stream of newer 2nd hand models coming on the market.

C# is much more recent than C/BCPL etc. What’s interesting, though, is how many of C these more modern languages are inspired by C. C is also very much still in use!

Snapshots are read only. Best plan is to rollback to a snapshot you think works, test it and if all is good use sudo snapper rollback to make the current snapshot the default. I usually reboot at that point too, not sure if it’s necessary though.

Not to be nit-picky, but I’m pretty sure they kicked him because they thought he was antisemitic, not because he was too left wing.

I imagine so, buy have no first hand experience.

I am a long-time Tumbleweed user. It’s the most stable rolling release distro I’ve tried, so if you want that latest software, it’s a great choice. I’ve not tried MicroOS yet, so I can’t comment on that.

IIRC, Qt comes with its own declarative language. That might be why you can’t find any bespoke ones.

BTRFS for the OS partitions, ext4 for /home, tmpfs for /tmp. I rarely need to use snapshots, but I do use a rolling release. It’s one of those things you don’t need until you really fucking NEED it. Tumbleweed support is great - I can roll back a bad update in about as long as it takes to reboot.

Yet the telegram client is written in Qt and has great cross-platform support.

Amateur! Ints should be called i, j or k.

It works really well with my QNAP NAS, including using the MariaDB service running in it. I mount the photos on the NAS as a drive first, and then it just works.

Upgraded this morning. Everything seems mostly OK, but the login screen theme is odd, but fully functional. The lock screen is the same as before, though.

It’ll work, but the fan won’t speed up when the CPU is hot.

Thinkpads are great for running Linux, but one thing I’ve noticed is thinkfan is not installed by any distro I’ve tried. You definitely want that, or your laptop’s fan isn’t going to work - that will lead to performance issues or potentially damage your laptop

I use fuck, it’s not ai but gets the job done.

Why would I want to use this instead of AWS Session Manager? I have a policy of no SSH enabled on any of my servers. Is this compatible with SSM connections too?
