I've known #distrobox for quite a while and used it casually go get things on my system and liked it a lot. Well since I started doing #development in my free time I came to rely on this tool a lot! It gives me such freedom and ease of mind, I love it! Previously I would install #ArchLinux to get the newest dependencies & goodies. After a while I either mess things up or I switch stack, tech or something else, so I used to wipe all & install from scratch for the next "project". Now I just use #debian as a host and get all the sdk's, ide's and all stuff related in an arch container. Then export what I need.

I am happy with how this turned out. This is for a local startup business that wants an internal wiki (asked for mediawiki) and the ability to have more php-mariadb (mysql) custom web apps. Why a GUI for a server? Just in case it is needed. I am not going to be doing all the work and I want it as easy as possible to use. Linux Mint Debian Edition is a good fit, as then I can just treat it like a Debian server. That's similar to a lot of the other Linux consulting I do. I have a hard disk drive for versioned backup. Configured Time Shift to back up everything to it. Seems to work well, as I can browse the Timeshift snapshot in the file browser. I also set up MediaWiki for them. Learned a few things there. I had to set a root mariadb password. I customized it with a logo and also made some other adjustments to the MediaWiki LocalSettings.php file. #LinuxMint #Debian #Linux #MediaWiki #wiki

@reallyflygreg@mstdn.ca @toddalio@mstdn.ca I'm inclined to believe that it is indeed the people who don't understand technology (specifically: they think that everything works like their smart 'phone or Microsoft Windows 11 PC do) making policy; or that they did understand the technology and were just crap at drafting legislation such that it could distinguish the Microsoft Store, Google Play, the Apple App Store, et al. from #Ubuntu's package repository and #OpenBSD's ports tree. And that distinguishing criterion is not #FreeSoftware. Given the aims, the #California legislators would want #FDroid to be required to hand over #AgeVerification data to free-software apps that F-Droid allows, that themselves want to impose age restrictions (on, say, showing certain content to minors) via the route of getting the account holder's age (bracket) information from the operating system via a 'signal' from the 'store'. https://monitor.f-droid.org/anti-features #FreeBSD #NetBSD #Debian #CaliforniaLaw #USLaw

@montyontherun@bitbang.social The definitions are broad, so to quite an extent they would. There are users, who have accounts, on general purpose computers, and run applications. The only hope for #mainframes seems to be that they likely don't have things that fit the definition of a 'covered application store'. But they might; especially if the mainframe is nowadays running a Linux-based operating system. http://linuxvm.org/info/distros.html #Debian and #Ubuntu have package repositories for s390x, for example. Such a repository is a 'publicly available internet website […] that distributes and facilitates the download of applications'. Here's one way how the naughty 16-year-olds in #California would download rustc onto such a mainframe with no #AgeVerification, for example: https://packages.debian.org/trixie/s390x/rustc/download #CaliforniaLaw #USLaw #FreeSoftware #rust

Finally getting around to upgrading my home server from Debian bookworm (12/oldstable) to trixie (13/stable). `apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs` went smoothly enough, just a few config files with local tweaks. Currently wishing I had FTTP for the `apt full-upgrade` downloads. I'm "languishing on only 80Mbps FTTC". I expect to have some issues to sort out once this bit is done, and I still need to re-activate/update my third-party repositories.... #Debian #Debian13 #FTTP #FTTC

Unfortunately, my experiment with CachyOS is over, even though I gave the system a fair chance this time. First of all, I really liked CachyOS. The speed is phenomenal, and everything would have been perfect except for one tiny detail that is essential for me: Localsend didn't work. And I couldn't figure out why. I was able to install the program easily, and my computer recognized all the devices around it. Except for the devices around my computer with CachyOS on it... and it was also not possible to send files from the computer to the recognized devices or mark them as favorites. Not even a firewall was activated or anything else in the network settings as usual. With all the other distributions I usually use—Fedora, Debian, OpenSUSE, Zorin OS, FreeBSD, even a “real” Arch—there are no problems at all. And since I'm constantly sending files and photos back and forth between my smartphone and computers and don't want to be constantly plugging and unplugging cables, CachyOS is not for my everyday use. I find that very unfortunate. But it's usually little things like this that make you less happy with a distribution or Linux in general than others might be. 😧 #linux #unix #opensource #freesoftware #cachyos #fedora #debian #zorinos #arch #archlinux #freebsd #localsend

https://github.com/jimed-rand/kagami As usual, I made another program which was written in the Go programming language and it’s called Kagami, where it’s inspired from the main character with the same name, Kagami Hiiragi from an anime titled “Lucky Star”. The program itself lets you make your own customised Ubuntu-based ISOs and focus on vanilla experience with blocking snapd by default and more customisable.with JSON config that was written on examples. The documentation for the program will be more available soon. Also, this program is licensed under GNU GPL v2.0 license and free for everyone. You can help me contribute for more improvement and feel free to contact me regarding this program. Thank you! #FOSS #opensource #ubuntu #debian #Linux #LuckyStar

Ich hatte heute dreimal (3 ×) versucht, einen headless – Raspberry einzurichten. Dreimal hatte ich die SD-Karte neu geflasht, und bin doch jedes Mal nicht über SSH auf das Device gekommen. Schließlich habe ich dann doch einen Monitor angeschlossen und siehe da: Die Entwickler der Debian-Ports für den Raspberry haben sich wieder etwas ganz „Geniales“ ausgedacht. Beim Start muss nun zwingend (egal ob mit oder ohne Desktopumgebung) der Nutzer festgelegt werden. Die beim Flashen der SD-Karte angegebenen Daten werden nicht (!) übernommen, und auch der SSH-Server ist zunächst einmal deaktiviert. Danke, liebe Devs. Wieder einmal Langeweile gehabt? 🙄 #Raspberry #OS #Debian

@cks@mastodon.social OpenWatcom vi is source available. https://mastodonapp.uk/@JdeBP/116052015020764901 Ritter's Heirloom #vi is in #FreeBSD ports today, coming from the same place that it has for a long time. https://freshports.org/editors/2bsd-vi/ It was dropped from #ArchLinux because it did not compile and hadn't changed in 20 years. Ironically, this is because the (GNU) C language had changed, and it has to nowadays be compiled forcing an older GNU C language version. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2285124#p2285124 Several people have independently discovered the Makefile patch that gets it to build on #Debian and the like. https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=629775 https://gist.github.com/cwfoo/01abac5c39f398b7e7b16a2b87aa518b #elvis, the precursor to #nvi, is packaged for both #NetBSD/#pkgsrc and #OpenBSD. https://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/editors/elvis/index.html https://github.com/openbsd/ports/tree/master/editors/elvis #retrocomputing #ComputerHistory #Watcom #OpenWatcom
