While they don’t seem very powerful by today’s standards, they were perfectly capable machines and, thanks to Elks (Embeddedable Linux Kernel Subset), you can run something fairly Linux- like on these devices. The requirements are light: 512K of RAM is desirable, but you can do something with 256K. If you have ROM, you can even get by with 128K. Most importantly, the system doesn’t require a memory management unit to remap memory like many operating systems.

Globally, Linux only just breaks the four percent mark of desktop operating systems. Linux will never threaten Windows’ dominance of the desktops. Even with the roll-out of Windows 11 rendering a lot of hardware Windows-obsolete, there hasn’t been a tidal wave of users abandoning Windows and moving to Linux, even though their hardware would run Linux just fine. A few will have migrated to Linux, for sure, but they’re already included in the four-point-something adoption figure. And that's Linux’s highest percentage of desktop share to date. The notion of Linux taking a significant chunk of Microsoft’s desktop share is a pipe dream, and the idea that it could ever catch, overtake, or usurp Windows is nothing more than a flight of fancy. But trying to measure Linux’s success by looking at desktop adoption is missing the point, and by a country mile.

However, there are multiple preventive measures you can take to curb the chances of security breaches, including setting up firewalls, creating complex passwords, and keeping a weather eye on app permissions. If you’re particularly security-conscious, you can consider switching from the mainstream Windows 11 and macOS to an operating system specifically designed with a plethora of safety measures built into it.

Many of Budgie’s components have been ported to Wayland already and the team considers it “daily-drivable on Wayland for a typical end user usecase.” For example, it’s now possible to log into a Budgie Desktop Wayland session on top of the Labwc compositor, launch apps with tasklist grouping, open the Budgie Menu and Raven, switch up the panel position, live stream and screen capture using OBS Studio, and even share your screen in apps.

Even if Canonical continues to support Linux 6.8 by backporting bug fixes from newer kernel versions, you may end up in a situation where you need the extra hardware support when installing Ubuntu on a newer computer, or maybe you just want to enjoy some new features. Canonical promised a while ago that new Ubuntu releases would ship with the latest and greatest Linux kernel. But they didn’t promise to also upgrade that default kernel to newer versions during the supported period of the respective Ubuntu release. I know this is very frustrating for many of you out there as other distributions like Fedora Linux (and others) offer their users newer kernels. So why not install Linux kernel 6.12?

The survey reflects a 0.29 per cent increase in market share for Linux, rising from 2.03 per cent in November to 2.29 per cent in December. Among Linux gamers, SteamOS Holo stands out, accounting for approximately 36 per cent of all users. SteamOS Holo, the operating system of the Steam Deck, is gaining traction on other devices as well. A significant driver of this growth is the Steam Deck itself, which relies on a custom AMD SoC/APU. AMD's popularity with Linux gamers and enthusiasts is attributed to its open-source driver support, resulting in AMD CPU usage commanding a 73.6 per cent market share among Linux users.

This feature was initially planned for Firefox 133. Users can disable or enable this feature in about: config by setting apz.gtk.touchpad_hold.enabled to true or false. Starting with this release, Firefox now follows the model HTML specification for transient user activation more closely. Mozilla says that “this change makes pop-up blocking less strict in cases where previous versions of Firefox were overly aggressive, reducing erroneous blocking prompts.” Read_on Linuxiac: * ⚓ Firefox_134_Now_Available_for_Download,_Here’s_What’s_New⠀⇛ A month and a half after the previous 133 release, Mozilla released a new version of its widely used open-source browser, Firefox v134, now available for download. Linux users will be excited to learn about the newly supported touchpad hold gestures, making scrolling more intuitive and easier to control. In fact, momentum (kinetic) scrolling can now be interrupted simply by placing two fingers on the touchpad. Meanwhile, Windows users gain the advantage of HEVC hardware support, which should translate into more efficient video playback for certain file formats. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢻⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢛⣛⡛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⡛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⢛⣛⣛⡛⣛⣛⡛⡛⣛⣻⣿⣛⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠛⠁⠙⠛⠛⣛⣻⣿⣛⢛⠛⣋⡀⠀⠀⣠⣤⣤⡄⠀⣀⣀⢀⢀⣀⢀⣀⣀⡀⢀⡀⣀⣀⣀⢀⣀⣀⣈⣉⢁⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠈⠉⠉⠁⠉⠉⠁⠀⠉⠙⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣠⣬⣭⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠭⠭⠤⠍⠭⠭⠭⠭⠥⠬⠭⠭⠭⠭⠬⠭⠭⠭⠭⠬⠄⠀⠀⢀⣀⡀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠙⠁⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⢀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⢻⠟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠭⠭⡯⠭⠭⠭⣭⠽⠭⠭⠭⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠈⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣘⣣⣽⣿⠿⠿⠋⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣯⣭⣥⣤⣤⣤⡤⣤⡤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣮⣽⣯⣿⣷⣯⣭⣯⣭⣭⡽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠏⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⠉⠉⠙⠃⢻⡿⢿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣞⠿⣿⣷⢵⣿⣿⡿⣿⡿⣿⣛⣛⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡻⠿⠿⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠻⢵⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣽⣿⠿⢿⣿⡿⢿⡿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣸⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠯⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⢿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣏⣭⣭⣤⣠⣠⣤⣄⣀⣄⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠛⠒⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢛⠛⠛⢛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠭⠧⠤⠤⠬⠭⠭⠭⠭⠤⠤⠄⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠿⠿⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⡀⡀⠀⣀⣀⠀⢀⠀⠀⢀⠀⡀⡀⢀⠀⠀⢀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣯⣯⣭⣭⣬⣭⣭⣭⣭⣯⣭⣽⣽⠉⠙⠋⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠩⠉⠏⠏⠿⠂⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠆⠦⠤⠀⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣉⣋⢩⢉⣙⣍⣉⣝⠩⡹⣯⣍⣋⣙⡋⢙⣻⣝⡏⣏⡉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠇⠀⠒⠒⠒⠒⠂⠒⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢰⣶⠀⣶⣶⢰⣿⣿⠀⢶⠆⠀⣿⡇⠀⣷⡆⠀⣿⡆⠀⣶⡆⢰⣶⡆⢰⣷⡆⢰⣿⡆⢰⣶⠀⢰⡶⠀⢰⣶⠀⢴⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠤⠠⠤⠤⠀⠠⠤⠄⠄⠤⠤⠄ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1109 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/06/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/06/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 06, 2025 * ⚓ Loup Vaillant ☛ Good,_Fast,_Cheap:_Pick_3_or_Get_None⠀⇛ Engineering is is a game of compromises: we can’t have it all, if we optimise for something, something else got to give. We programmers often like to think of ourselves as engineers (some of us actually are), and one way to project the associated gravitas is to act jaded: there’s no free lunch, pick your battles, and accept that the only way to cheap software is to cut corners. Except it’s not. * ⚓ Hisham ☛ What_every_programmer_should_know_about_what_every_programmer should_know⠀⇛ I won’t deny it. I came up with the title for this post before coming up with the actual content. It came to my head and it was just too good to pass, because it entices you to think about that subject. What does every programmer need to know, after all? * ⚓ Arjen Wiersma ☛ Choose_your_tools⠀⇛ Like many programmers I love to explore new languages, I think you always learn something new from them. As Clojure really taught me about functional programming when all I knew was imperative languages. In the end, after having a summer of not working on my studies I have 0 projects completed, but I do have 4 versions of them. * ⚓ NetBSD ☛ Re:_Core_statement_on_version_control_systems⠀⇛ Here is a plan to transition NetBSD from CVS to a hybrid of Mercurial and Git, based on the current CVS -> Mercurial conversion process we have ongoing. o § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ ID Root ☛ Image_Mirroring_with_Python⠀⇛ Image processing is a vital aspect of modern computing, with applications ranging from graphic design to machine learning. One fundamental technique in image processing is image mirroring, which involves flipping an image along its vertical or horizontal axis. o § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ # ⚓ Linuxiac ☛ Fish_Shell_4.0:_Rust_Is_Coming⠀⇛ In a remarkable two-year effort, the maintainers of the popular Fish Shell have officially released a beta of Fish 4.0—this time written almost entirely in Rust instead of C++. What began in early 2023 as a playful pull request jokingly titled “Rewrite it in Rust” has now resulted in a full-fledged transition. # ⚓ Oil Shell ☛ Oils_0.24.0_-_Closures,_Objects,_and Namespaces⠀⇛ Why was it delayed? As I was writing it, it felt too dense, so I wrote a friendly introduction to the ideas introduced: • Why Should a Unix Shell Have Objects? That is essential background for this announcement.

The Pentium includes a floating-point unit that can rapidly compute functions such as sines, cosines, logarithms, and exponentials. But how does the Pentium compute these functions? Earlier Intel chips used binary algorithms called CORDIC, but the Pentium switched to polynomials to approximate these transcendental functions much faster. The polynomials have carefully-optimized coefficients that are stored in a special ROM inside the chip's floating-point unit. Even though the Pentium is a complex chip with 3.1 million transistors, it is possible to see these transistors under a microscope and read out these constants. The first part of this post discusses how the floating point constant ROM is implemented in hardware. The second part explains how the Pentium uses these constants to evaluate sin, log, and other functions. * ⚓ Direction9_made_a_T9-based_keyboard_for_better_typing_on_TVs⠀⇛ Typing on a TV sucks.

Use Linux, BSD. — Let's talk about some of the aspects of elementary OS I liked. For me, the main draw of elementary is the combination of pretty desktop and simple applications. This is not ideal for me, personally, but I think the distribution is one I could show to people coming from other operating systems (especially macOS) and they'd be able to pick it up quickly. The applications are named based on their task (Web, Mail, Music, and Calendar), there are not a lot of options, settings, or menus immediately visible in most applications. It's a bit like running GNOME, but more streamlined and with better performance. It's not the sort of experience which appeals to me, but it is the sort of experience I think will appeal to my non-techie friends and family. I like that this approach exists for newcomers. The main downside for me was the weird way in which software is managed on the system. It is the one aspect which is unusually complex, especially compared with other beginner-friendly distributions such as Linux Mint. On Mint there is one software centre for adding and removing applications and one update manager that, well, handles updates. elementary OS introduces the concept of official elementary applications (which all seem to be pulled from Flathub) along with unofficial "sideloaded" applications which also appear to all come from Flathub. The waters are further clouded by the system separating the "base OS" updates from applications. I think, in this instance, "base OS" refers to anything installed from a classic Deb package. And then there is another application for fetching drivers. In total, there are at least four different categories of packages (based on how elementary organizes them), but all the software can be managed using just two tools (AppCentre and APT). It just seems unnecessarily complicated with no benefit and at odds with the design of the rest of the distribution. The other downside to running elementary is a bit more abstract. There are a lot of ways people can categorize Linux distributions: commercial vs community, KISS vs automated, full-featured vs minimal, RPM vs Deb, etc. In my mind there is a distinction that I rarely see discussed in Linux circles: projects where the developers use and design their software vs projects where the developers create the software for others to use. (In technology circles, organizations which use their own software are said to be "eating their own dog food" or "dog fooding".)

The Mecha Comet is a 3.4-inch rectangular handheld that vaguely resembles a BlackBerry, but runs Debian Linux OS with a custom, touch-friendly UI on top. Launching soon on Kickstarter for $159, the device has a pogo pin interface where you can attach various extensions, including a gamepad, a Blackberry-style keyboard and a GPIO (General Purpose Input / Output) connector with 40 female pins. Using the GPIO connector, you can attach a variety of electronic devices, including Raspberry Pi HATs. You can also attach HATs directly to the Comet or design your own extension board to attach to the pins.

One of those distributions is called Siduction, which is a rolling release (meaning it's always up to date) based on Debian Sid and uses the KDE Plasma desktop. The developers of Siduction have done a great job of releasing an operating system that will make any Windows user feel right at home. KDE Plasma offers a familiar layout that's beautifully configured and includes all of the flexibility the desktop environment offers. But it's the familiarity that will be most welcoming. Out of the box, Siduction uses a Dark theme (why is that so popular?), but you can easily switch to a light theme in Settings > Appearance & Style > Colors & Themes. Switching to a light theme is one of the first things I do when installing a new operating system, and I find it necessary more often than not.

I would like to occasionally audit the system to have an idea of what is a candidate for backup. ncdu would be great for this, but it doesn't know about backup exclusion filters. * ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Fix_xkbcomp_warning_messages⠀⇛ We have had this issue for a very long time.

Try to run them in a terminal, and see "cannot load font" error message. I found the cause. These apps need to load .pcf fonts, that are at /usr/share/fonts/misc; however, the Xephyr nested server does not look there. It does see the TrueType fonts in /usr/ share/fonts/TTF * § Desktop Environments/WMs⠀➾ o ⚓ Nico Cartron ☛ Make_dmenu_do_case_insensitive_searches⠀⇛ As part of my switch to i3, I'm using dmenu to launch applications. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1952 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/06/today_s_howtos.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/06/today_s_howtos.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 06, 2025 * ⚓ LinuxTechi ☛ How_to_Create_Partitions_in_GNU/Linux_Using_fdisk Command⠀⇛ In this guide, we will explain how to create partitions in linux using fdisk command step by step. * ⚓ Linux Hint ☛ How_to_Change_Your_Prompt_in_Bash_Shell_in_Ubuntu⠀⇛ Customize your bash shell easy with this simple guide so you are happy with your linux shell environment * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_PimCore_on_Ubuntu_24.04_LTS⠀⇛ Pimcore is a powerful, open-source platform designed to handle multiple digital experience needs.

It doesn't help programmers to write code to be anal when dealing with input. It doesn't help programmers to think about potential exploits. It just punts the problem with magic pixie dust that will solve all the problems. # ⚓ DragonFly BSD Digest ☛ Lazy_Reading_for_2025/01/05⠀⇛ Happy new year!  I have some history gems in here – not archival material but people that made history, speaking again, now.

That’s the ads.txt file for this site. The format is defined in a_specification_from_the_IAB_Tech_Lab (PDF). The important part is the last line.
