This was dramatically improved in WordPress 6.3. * ⚓ Julia Freeman ☛ The_search_for_a_website_building_tool⠀⇛ I've had various websites over the years, made with various different tools, from handcrafted html, to the C preprocessor (yep, using GCC to generate html!), to server side includes, to wordpress. I wanted to make a website to write about some of my making projects, I didn't want it to also become a programming project, and also wanted to move away from the rather heavy platform that wordpress is for such a small website. In recent years static site generators (SSG) have become quite popular as a way of running a website, so I thought I'd give one of those a go. What I didn't realise was the rabbit hole I was about to jump head first into, and as it turns out, how hard it is for modern website platforms to do simple things with images. Having finally conquered this, many people asked me to write about the experience, and what my eventual solution was.

I do also want a modern KDE Plasma 6 desktop, but I’ll do that on a slightly newer machine. Here’s some notes-for-myself. The FreeBSD ports tree is branched every quarter, roughly with the idea that you can pick a stable(-ish) branch of ports to consume, or you can go with main and get the ports-du-jour. The branches also offer a way of sticking to older releases of some software. KDE Plasma 6 (and most of KDE Gear, and all the supporting KDE Frameworks) have arrived in main, and the KDE Plasma 5 ports have been removed. That’s a decision of the kde@ group of maintainers of the KDE ports in FreeBSD, one which boils down to not having the time available to maintain both versions, and wanting to be able to upstream fixes. But I want to stick with older KDE software, at least on my daily driver, a little longer. Oh, and I want a recent Telegram port. And a pony, too.

After discussing with our contributors, we’ve moved from FreeBSD STABLE to FreeBSD RELEASE, building this version on 14.2-RELEASE-p1, the first patched update of FreeBSD 14.2. This shift, paired with a transparent naming format, promises a smoother, more predictable GhostBSD experience. Our new versioning—25.01-R14.2p1—breaks down as: "25" for 2025, "01" as our patch version, "R" for RELEASE, "14.2" for the FreeBSD base, and "p1" for FreeBSD’s first patch level. This aligns us with FreeBSD’s release cycle, freeing us to focus on enhancing your desktop while keeping updates timely and stable. Based on FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE-p1, GhostBSD 25.01-R14.2p1 brings the MATE desktop to 1.28.2, debuts 2025 wallpapers, and delivers better hardware support and polish throughout.

Take Door Kickers, it’s been out for like what, 15 years… and I seriously did not expect it would ever get a follow-up. But here it is, and we now have Door Kickers 2. Apparently it was in Early Access for a while - and for some reason I completely missed it. Now it’s finally out as a 1.0 version. The first game was a top-down 2D tactical game where you used a SWAT team to intervene in specific scenarios (killing entrenched terrorists, rescuing hostages, etc.) in relatively small environments. You had a very rich gameplay: it’s semi real-time. You plan your actions in advance while game is paused, and then you can unpause the game to see what happens in real-time. Anytime, you can pause the game again to change or plan for the next actions for each of the squad members, encouraging you to think in sequence or in parallel depending on the demands of the current situation. It was not just about kicking doors and firing - you could use things like smoke grenades, flashbangs and actual grenades. You sometimes had sniper support to clear enemies from far away, too. It started easy but became fairly difficult as you progressed to new maps. The whole recipe is back in this sequel - and this time the whole thing is in 3D, which makes the presentation a little nicer, without changing any of the fundamentals. What I mentioned above is still there in the sequel, with yet more options and a campaign beyond the introductory maps. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ SteamVR_Controller_Controlling_Addressable_LEDs⠀⇛ [Chris] had an idea. When playing VR games like BeatSaber, he realized that spectators without headsets weren’t very included in the action. He wanted to create some environmental lighting that would make everyone feel more a part of the action.

The Linux world is full of passionate developers and communities, each with their own vision of what makes the perfect operating system. When a developer creates a Linux distro, it’s not about creating the best operating system because there can’t be an objectively best, one-size-fits-all operating system.

Between then and now, I've found that email client to be a bit too outdated in the UI and a bit too slow for my needs.

We covered it in a longer article, too. It should hit the market in Q3 2025. It will be powered by a AMD Ryzen™ Hey Hi (AI) Max 385 (or 390) and feature from 32 to 128GB of soldered RAM. It will also possess a NPU to accelerate (smaller) Hey Hi (AI) models, and in terms of gaming capabilities, it will be powerful enough to make demanding games run at 1080p high settings at around 60FPS most of the game, according go their (promotional) benchmarks. Since the high-end version will feature 128GB of RAM, this makes this Framework Desktop also a good candidate to run Hey Hi (AI) workloads with fairly large models. It won’t replace a discrete GPU, but it may be one of the cheapest options out there to run such models (like 70b models for example). In this context, we were interested to know if our audience was interested in such a machine after the reveal.

I've been examining the Pentium's circuitry in detail and I came across a circuit to multiply by three, a complex circuit with thousands of transistors. Why does the Pentium have a circuit to multiply specifically by three? Why is it so complicated? In this article, I examine this multiplier—which I'll call the ×3 circuit—and explain its purpose and how it is implemented. It turns out that this multiplier is a small part of the Pentium's floating-point multiplier circuit. In particular, the Pentium multiplies two 64-bit numbers using base- 8 multiplication, which is faster than binary multiplication.1 However, multiplying by 3 needs to be handled as a special case. Moreover, since the rest of the multiplication process can't start until the multiplication by 3 finishes, this circuit must be very fast. If you've studied digital design, you may have heard of techniques such as carry lookahead, Kogge-Stone addition, and carry-select addition. I'll explain how the ×3 circuit combines all these techniques to maximize performance. * ⚓ Luke Harris ☛ Fixing_my_Blue_Snowball⠀⇛ It’s ugly, but it works!

Let’s open them up and find out. There’s a common misconception in the computer world that as soon as you open a hard drive and expose it to a single particle of dust, you’ve completely destroyed it and it will never work again. Now to be fair, with many modern, higher- density drives it’s probably true — some of them are even sealed with helium inside — but older hard drives like the ones I’ve shown above are remarkably tolerant of being opened. That’s not to say I would leave it operating without the cover for an extended period of time, but for quick data recovery purposes in a decently clean environment, it’s fine. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ Making_a_photo_enlarger_more_efficient_with_precisely controlled_LEDs⠀⇛ Responsible for acting as the light source, this project utilizes a total of 40 RGBW LEDs on the Adafruit NeoPixel Shield.

In addition to producing far less heat due to their reduced energy consumption compared to a traditional lamp, these RGBW LEDs can output a wide range of colors over time for very fine-tuned control over the image’s final appearance. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ STMicro_releases_Teseo_VI_quad-band_GNSS_receivers_for automotive_and_robotics_applications⠀⇛ STMicro has launched the Teseo VI family of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers for high-volume precise positioning applications.

As has become the norm for the organization this decade, this election is already facing a major election irregularity. In the past, the organization has handled itself well in these cases. This time its decided to circle the wagons to defend a decision that many are saying is indefensible. What this means is that when this election is over and done, and the votes have been tallied and logged into the record books, there’s going to be an asterisk placed somewhere amid the names and numbers to denote that self-nominated Debian developer Luke Faraone wasn’t allowed to run. OSI claims that according the rules spelled out in an email broadcast to the organization’s membership, the nomination was filed well after the filing deadline of February 17 at 11:59 pm UTC. Faraone’s camp says that according to the rules spelled out on OSI’s website, where no time zone was mentioned, he filed three hours before deadline. Farone lives in the Pacific time zone, which is also where OSI is located.

It is celebrated annually on the day before April Fool's Day, as a reminder that we will be fooled if we do not regularly back up our data. Your data is the most valuable part of your computer. A computer, its operating system and programs can be replaced, but you cannot replace lost family photos, your writing projects or financial records without a backup. Data loss can be caused by hard drive crashes, system failure or by accidents (user error) — not to mention that 21% of people have never bothered to make a backup. This article was inspired by a simple Grsync tutorial which was originally written by Iain Jackson for the August 2007 issue of our community magazine, and updated by Paul Arnote in November 2009. To commemorate the holiday, I decided to “refresh” these articles by covering Grsync in more detail and discussing a few aspects of the program that confused me at first. Texstar has frequently recommended that users should follow a two-pronged backup strategy: Timeshift to take care of the operating system files (i.e., everything except for your /home directory) and another backup utility — such as Grsync, Back In Time or luckyBackup — for your personal data (i.e., documents, pictures, music, videos). o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ # ⚓ PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ Wiki_Pick:_Changing_GRUB_Boot_Menu Font_Size⠀⇛ The Acer Spin 3 SP313-51N series laptops have a very nice 13.3 inch WQXGA (2560 × 1600) 16:10 IPS Touchscreen. That high resolution on a 13 inch screen makes the default GRUB menu extremely difficult to read. I had to use a magnifying glass to read it. Changing the display to 1920 × 1200 does not help until display drivers are loaded during boot. The only option to fix the tiny GRUB display is to change the font size that GRUB uses. # ⚓ PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ GIMP_Tutorial:_Using_The_Cage Transformation_Tool⠀⇛ Browsing through the tutorials, I saw one about the Cage Transformation tool in GIMP. It’s a little different because it lets you bend things around any way you want. It doesn’t keep things in perspective, so I hadn’t used it much. Usually, if I want to transform something, I’m still concerned about perspective and straight lines. (This tutorial is one that comes to mind.) Using the Cage Transformation tool is relatively easy, but it’s also easy to make a mess. However, that may be what you’re aiming for. Let’s get started! Open GIMP and import a photo you want to transform. The tutorial I saw (one of many) used a vehicle, and changed the shape of it, so I loaded this photo into GIMP. This vehicle was in a parade in my town several years ago. I’m going to transform the car. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § PCLinuxOS/Mageia/Mandriva/OpenMandriva Family⠀➾ # ⚓ PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ From_The_Chief_Editor's_Desk...⠀⇛ You might have noticed a new column in last month’s issue of The PCLinuxOS Magazine. It’s called Wiki Pick. This new column will feature a helpful article lifted straight from the pages of the PCLinuxOS Knowlegebase Wiki. We plan to make it a monthly feature. There are multiple facets to the decision to introduce a new monthly column. One reason is to try to keep things fresh and interesting, and to provide things that we think that the PCLinuxOS community will like/use/enjoy. That these are helpful articles is a great benefit, as well. # ⚓ PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ PCLinuxOS_Screenshot_Showcase⠀⇛ * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ # ⚓ PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ A_Bash_Script_Program_Launcher For_The_Notification_Area_Of_Your_Panel⠀⇛ I have to be completely honest about something. I love messing around with bash scripts. They play right into my quest to solve problems and save time. It also harkens back to my days when I was a burgeoning shareware programmer that started way back when I was using Windows 3.1. Trust me … I didn’t get rich off of the shareware I wrote (not even close). With my bash scripts, I’m able to accomplish repetitive tasks with a minimum of effort. One example is the bash script that I wrote (and use monthly) to create the various sized images used for the magazine’s HTML layout. And I have not one, but two versions of that script. One creates the various sized JPG files from the PNG file produced by Scribus. The other creates a PNG file from the actual PDF, and then I run the other script on that PNG file to create the various sized JPG files. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2161 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Programming_Leftovers.1.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Programming_Leftovers.1.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 03, 2025 * ⚓ Henrik Warne ☛ More_Good_Programming_Quotes,_Part_6⠀⇛ Here are more good programming quotes I have found since my last post. * ⚓ Bozhidar Batsov ☛ Learning_OCaml:_Functions_without_Parameters⠀⇛ To people coming from “conventional” programming languages this might look like calling a function/method without any arguments.

Here is but a few of the highlights in 30.1: [...] * ⚓ Chris Wellons ☛ Robust_Wavefront_OBJ_model_parsing_in_C⠀⇛ Wavefront OBJ is a line-oriented, text format for 3D geometry. It’s widely supported by modeling software, easy to parse, and trivial to emit, much like Netpbm for 2D image data. Poke around hobby 3D graphics projects and you’re likely to find a bespoke OBJ parser. While typically only loading their own model data, so robustness doesn’t much matter, they usually have hard limitations and don’t stand up to fuzz testing. This article presents a robust, partial OBJ parser in C with no hard-coded limitations, written from scratch. Like similar articles, it’s not really about OBJ but demonstrating some techniques you’ve probably never seen before. * ⚓ Ruud van Asseldonk ☛ A_float_walks_into_a_gradual_type_system⠀⇛ I am building a new configuration language: RCL. It’s a gradually typed superset of json that extends json into a simple functional language that enables abstraction and reuse. Its main purpose is to generate json, yaml, and toml files, but it makes a pretty good json query tool too. Think jq, but without having to ask an LLM to write the query for you. While RCL supported integers early on, it was missing one piece to deliver on the json superset promise: floats — numbers that contain a decimal point. Adding floats to RCL was tough, because several guiding principles are in conflict. In this post we will explore the trade-offs involved. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ CRAN-like_repository_for_most_recent_releases_ot_Techtonique’s R_packages⠀⇛ If you’re looking for most recent releases of Techtonique’s R packages like ahead, bayesianrvfl, bcn, learningmachine, or esgtoolkit (not available on CRAN), you can use the CRAN-like repository located at: https://r-packages.techtonique.net. * ⚓ Bartosz Sypytkowski ☛ Is_Rust_a_good_fit_for_business_apps?⠀⇛ But what do I mean by term business apps? Nowadays, its all sorts of services targeting various kinds of user/asset management, be it a bank portal, online shop or any other sort of ERP systems. This also covers ETL to huge extend, as they bring your focus outside of main concerns that Rust shines in.

I wrote a small C++ program which opens 10,000 files. The files are opened and closed immediately. However, there are 10,000 distinct (empty) files. It is a simple test: there is no writing and the files do not remain open long. * ⚓ Brandon Pugh ☛ Git_Stash_Without_the_Branch_Name⠀⇛ When I stash changes in git, it’s usually work that is independent of the branch I’m working on. If I have work in progress that does belong on a particular branch, then I’ll create a WIP (“work in progress”) commit on that branch instead. This means that git’s default behavior of including the branch name in the stash message just adds noise for me. * ⚓ Colin Leroy-Mira ☛ Apple_II:_a_simple_way_to_play_sound_samples⠀⇛ I am currently in the process of porting (or rather, reimplementing from scratch) an old Macintosh game to the Apple II, and I wanted it to have acceptable sound.

To agree on a rule is to agree on entire categories of things which we will NOT do, but if what we do doesn't matter then we'll continue to simply do whatever we feel like without limitation. * ⚓ France24 ☛ Cyclone_Garance_hits_France's_Reunion_Island,_kills_at_least three⠀⇛ French police said at least three people were killed when a tropical storm packing fierce winds and torrential rains thumped the French Indian Ocean island of Reunion on Friday. Residents were ordered to stay at home as Tropical Cyclone Garance brought heavy rain and winds exceeding 200 kilometers per hour  (124 mph), causing floods, power cuts and damage to buildings. * § Python⠀➾ o ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Using_PyPy_(or_thinking_about_it)_exposed a_bug_in_closing_files⠀⇛ I recently wanted to run a hacked up version of a NFS monitoring program written in Python under PyPy instead of CPython, so it would run faster and use less CPU on the systems I was interested in. Since I remembered this PyPy issue, I found myself wondering if it properly handled closing the file(s) it had to open, or if it left it to CPython garbage collection.

Work related, not work related, interesting, useful or not. It's really a great thing. This time I decided to play around with Home Assistant some more and figure out how it does things. Adam Williamson mentioned it in a matrix discussion, and I had been meaning to look into it too, so seemed like a great time. I picked up a Home Assistant green (which is basically a small arm box that has home assistant (HA) all installed on it and ready to go.

Related office spaces will also be suspended. IBM announced last August that it will withdraw all research and development work from China. The China System Laboratory work has been transferred to other IBM infrastructure bases overseas. The move this time only involves IBMV, which is mainly responsible for R&D and testing. The employees are located in many cities across the country, including Beijing, Shanghai, Dalian, etc., involving more than 1,800 people. According to the financial report, IBM’s 2023 revenue in the Chinese market fell by 19.6 percent, becoming one of the main reasons for dragging down revenue growth in the Asia-Pacific region. In the first half of 2024, IBM’s sales in China fell again, down 5 percent year-over-year. In addition to R&D, IBM’s current business in China also includes consulting business (IBMC). According to information released by IBM last year, the number of IBMC Chinese customers has dropped by 45 percent in the past two years. Some IBM employees revealed that IBMC will also lay off employees this year. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2501 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Review_Orbitiny_0_01.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Review_Orbitiny_0_01.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Review: Orbitiny 0.01⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Mar 03, 2025 Quoting: DistroWatch.com: Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD. — The new desktop has some neat concepts and lots of intriguing shortcuts. The environment is very customizabe and flexible. Orbitiny reminds me of a modern take on CDE in some ways with its drawer and flexible panel. I feel like this is what CDE might have become if someone wanted to add gestures and multiple folder actions to the classic desktop. Some options are either hidden from view or missing. I had to dig a bit to find some configuration options and others didn't work because I wasn't running Orbitiny on top of Xfce. But what I found was generally good, especially for a first release. I ran into a few crashes, the desktop isn't entirely stable, but I had fewer problem than expected for an initial release. I also like that Orbitiny is relatively light on resources. This feels like a really good first attempt and, as the author suggests, it's a good balance between classic layout with modern features. Note: There has been a new version of Orbitiny published since the 0.01 release, though I haven't been able to try it out yet because it looks like the project's Codeberg repository is off-line at the time of writing. I did find a copy of the release announcement on-line and it looks like the settings panel has been reorganized and a handful of bugs fixed. The overall design and style of the desktop seem to be unchanged though.

That’s all good news, but that also means you’ll need to be patient if you want a board that works with random ISO image compliant with UEFI and/or ACPI. Right now, making the board work to your needs may require lots of reading and tweaking. For the second part of Radxa O6 review, I think I’ll test the current images with Debian 12 and Linux 6.1 to run a few benchmarks and see what works and what doesn’t, and then compile Linux 6.13, and try again with the same tests.

I had a PeerTube instance for a little over a year, although I hardly posted anything on there and it’s never seen much traffic. I did want to keep it around though, as I had a few video embeds scattered around the internet. It just didn’t need to be on it’s own server. This post is not about how I ported this instance over to Coolify. It’s been a few months, and several hours of trial and error to get that working. But I had been asked how one could setup their own PeerTube instance in Coolify, and I wanted a documented approach for how one could do so, should there be a need to spin up a new instance from scratch. PeerTube is not one of the builtin services that Coolify offers, at least at the time of this post, so a manual process to setting this up is required. o § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ # ⚓ James G ☛ Artemis_changelog_#3⠀⇛ Artemis, the calm web reader I maintain, has a few new features.

With this spec, it was suddenly much easier to write compliant and interoperable cookie implementations. I think these are plain facts. I have written cookie code since 1998 and I thus know this from my own personal experience. Since I believe in open protocols and doing things right, I participated in the making of that first cookie spec. As a non-browser implementer I think I bring a slightly different perspective and different angle to what many of the other involved people have. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3301 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Ubuntu_Touch_OTA_8_Released_with_VoLTE_Support_for_Volla_Phone_.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Ubuntu_Touch_OTA_8_Released_with_VoLTE_Support_for_Volla_Phone_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Ubuntu Touch OTA-8 Released with VoLTE Support for Volla Phone Users⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Mar 03, 2025, updated Mar 03, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Ubuntu_Touch_OTA-8⦈_ Coming a little over three months after Ubuntu Touch OTA-7, the Ubuntu Touch OTA-8 release is a small one adding only VoLTE (Voice over LTE) support for Volla Phone X23 and Volla Phone 22 devices running the Halium 12 port., support for WPA3-protected Wi-Fi networks, and the ability to remove a picture from a contact entry. This release also includes general bug fixes and security updates, both from upstream Ubuntu and UBports. It was kept small as the UBports Foundation is working on porting Ubuntu Touch to the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) operating system series. Read_on Linuxiac: * ⚓ UBports_Launches_Ubuntu_Touch_20.04_OTA-8⠀⇛ Ubuntu Touch, UBports’s privacy-first mobile operating system, has just released OTA-8 for Ubuntu Touch 20.04. One key highlight is rolling out VoLTE (Voice over LTE) capability again on Volla Phone X23 and Volla Phone 22, both of which run Halium 12. According to the developers, more devices will be added to this list in the future. Another big step forward is the newly added ability to connect to WPA3-encrypted Wi-Fi networks, addressing a growing user demand for modern, more robust wireless protection. At the same time, users can now remove a picture from a contact entry. ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡀⡠⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⢤⣴⣶⡶⡶⢦⢤⣴⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣾⡿⠿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⢩⠈⠀⠘⠟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠙⠛⠛⢻⣉⠈⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⠛⠿⠉⣁⠉⠈⠉⡉⠀⠹⠟⠍⠁⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⠀⢀⡀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⡀⡀⠈⡀⠀⣸⣿⠀⣀⡀⢀⡀⠀⣀⠈⠁⢀⠀⣧⡀⠁⢀⣇⢀⠀⣠⠀⣀⣄⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠻⠿⠿⠿⢹⠿⢿⠿⠛⠿⠿⠾⠾⡿⠯⠧⠥⠿⠽⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣤⣄⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3382 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Videos_Shows_About_GNU_Linux.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Videos_Shows_About_GNU_Linux.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Videos/Shows About GNU/ Linux⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 03, 2025 * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_A_Quick_Look_At_XeroLinux_With_GNOME_(XeroG)⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_BREAKING:_EA_releases_C&C_source_code_under_GPL3!⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_Linux_users_don't_customize_their_systems_all_that much?!⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_Linus_Torvalds_Puts_An_End_To_Rust_For_Linux_Drama⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_How_to_Install_Google_Chrome_on_Arch_linux⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_Chat,_Is_Mozilla_Firefox_Cooked⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-28_[Older]_Steam_Deck_Turns_3!_Plus,_Huge_Framework_&_Valve News!⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-27_[Older]_10_Useful_Linux_Commands_Every_SysAdmin_Needs_to Know⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-27_[Older]_We_Were_Wrong_About_Flathub⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-27_[Older]_How_to_Use_Tailscale:_Step-by-Step_Setup_Guide_for Beginners⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-27_[Older]_This_Tool_Will_Change_The_Way_You_Linux_('fzf')⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-26_[Older]_Beelink_GTi13_Ultra_Unbox_&_Linux_vs_Windows Benchmarks!⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-26_[Older]_Don't_Bash_Your_Dependencies_For_No_Reason⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-26_[Older]_How_to_install_Linux_Mint_22.1_“Xia”_Mate⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-25_[Older]_Rust_For_Linux_Has_A_New_Linux_Kernel_Policy⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-25_[Older]_No_This_Is_Not_A_Linux_Joke⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-24_[Older]_Fedora_lead_doesn't_get_Flathub,_Torvalds_solves Rust_debate,_Cosmic_a6:_Linux_&_Open_Source⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-02-23_[Older]_How_to_install_Blender_on_Elementary_OS_8.0⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3462 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Why_I_Just_Can_t_Love_Linux_Mint.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/03/Why_I_Just_Can_t_Love_Linux_Mint.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Why I Just Can't Love Linux Mint⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Mar 03, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Linux_Mint_logo_and_penguin_with_magnifying_glass⦈_ Quoting: Why I Just Can't Love Linux Mint — Linux Mint feels like moving to a new city but decorating your apartment exactly like your old one! In other words, I don’t see the point of this exercise. Don’t get me wrong—Linux Mint as an OS is fine, in the sense that it’s built on solid foundations and does everything expected of an OS. It supports almost all the tools you need for desktop computing and functions without major hiccups—all the practical qualities you'd want in an operating system. The problem, however, is just that—Linux Mint is more substance, less style!
