Sure, Linux Mint might be the best Linux distro to start with if you're just coming over from Windows, but for a more experienced user, there's a lot more Linux has to offer. There are more unique Linux distros that offer something unique and solve specific problems in ways mainstream distros like Ubuntu or Mint don't. Whether it's a focus on minimalism, package management, or a specialized feature, these distros deserve way more attention.

You may need to install drivers and software, remove ads, update the system (which can take a long time), remove bloatware, tweak the UI, disable taskbar and lock screen widgets, disable system notifications, enable system protection, and more. With many Linux distributions, the list is considerably shorter. If you opt to use the right Linux distribution, you'll find it might be just perfect out of the box. Also: The best Linux laptops right now But which Linux distributions offer such a post-install nirvana? The list might not be long, but it's enough to give you choices. Each of the distributions below requires little work once the OS is up and running. To make this list even more appealing, all of these distros are not even remotely challenging to install.

The days are getting shorter, the news has gotten slower, but we're still coping OK. We just look further and deeper for news and views about GNU/Linux. Curiously enough, GNU/Linux gets mentioned quite a lot these days in social control media. It 'feels' like lots of people use it, if not 'full-time', then at least sometimes (e.g. dual-booting, virtualisation, "on the server" and so on). GNU/Linux is the platform that's growing. Apple isn't thriving in the current economic climate. █ ⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⡇⣴⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡦⠈⠻⠟⠁ ⡿⠀⠀⠀⢀⣨⣽⣿⡻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠂⠀⣀⣀⣀⣘⠿⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣀⣰⣶⡄⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠘⢢⡆ ⠀⠀⢀⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣮⣙⠛⠿⠟⠋⠉⠋⠉⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⠿⠛⠁⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠈⠛⠿⢿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠊⠀⠈⠀ ⠀⠀⣾⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⢘⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢀⣠⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡽⠂⣾⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⢡⢋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠈⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢀⣲⣶⣿⣿⣿⣦⣈⣹⣻⠟⢷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠀⠀⠛⢿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⠟⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⡙⢽⣿⣿⠇⠀⠸⣿⣿⡭⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⣁⣤⣤⣤⣄⡀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⢉⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠀⠘⠿⣿⣯⣤⠀⣨⣿⣷⣦⣴⣤⣀⡈⠉⠈⠉⠉⠁⢀⣄⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣮⠉⠉⠉⠉⠘⡽⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷ ⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠉⣵⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⢀⠂⢠⣴⢒⡼⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠿⡿ ⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠈⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⠈⠉⠉⠉⠡⢿⡏⠛⠀⠂⠀⠀⠠⣫⣶⣷⣦⡀⠀⠈⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢰⠂⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠟⠹⠿⢏⣿⣿⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠇⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⠇⠀⠀⠐⠒⢈⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠨⠿⣿⣿⢿⠀⣄⣴⣶⣶⠆ ⠁⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠚⠋⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⠀⠀⣴⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣆⢀⡉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⣥⣼⣿⣿⣿⡟⠃⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠈⠿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣎⣭⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⠗⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠻⠛⠀⠀⣠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣳⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠞⠙⠛⠗⠉⠘⠀⠟⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣾⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⠄⠀⠉⠉⠛⣩⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⡄⠀⠈⠙⢸⣿⣿⣷⣶⣦⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣄⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠲⣾⣟⣿⠟ ⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣇⠀⡀⢲⡟⠂⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⡀⠀⠀⠈⢀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠈⣉⣁ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⡉⠛⠙⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⡇⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣦⣤⣤⡀⢴⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⣍⡻⠟⠁⠁⠁⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠙⠿⢿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠟⠉⠀⠀⣀⣤⣤⡀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠃⠁⠀⠀⠀⣀⢀⣀⡀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢀⣀⣠⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣇⣤⣤⣽⣿⡿⠿⠿⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠹ ⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⠂⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢋⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣄⠀⠛⠛⢋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡄⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀ ⠿⠚⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠈⠉⣿⣿⣟⡉⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⡀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣯⠂⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢀⣥⣶⣿⣶⣦⡀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣭⠝⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠙⠛⠛⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣄⡀⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠙ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⢷⡆⠀⠈⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⣋⣥⣤⣶⡶⣦⡤⠌⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣷⣆⠀⠙⠿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀ ⣶⣶⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⠆⣾⣤⣰⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡴⣴⣿⣿⡟⠀⣿⣧⢈⣗⡀⠀⠀⠀⢤⣦⣀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀ ⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣉⣙⣛⣛⠛⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣭⣭⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣬⣭⣭⣭⣭⣍⡛⢋⡙⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⢿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿ ⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣒⣈⣐⣒⣒⣒⣂⣀⣉⣁⡈⢛⡛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣛⠛⢛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⡃⣿⢸ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠏⠛⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣤⣿⣿⣷⣷⣶⣾⣦⣡⣦⣙⣡⣍⣡⣬⣮⣥⣍⢻⣿⣿⡟⡛⣋⡛⢛⡛⠿⠿⠇⣿⢸ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠇⣦⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⢿⢸ ⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⠁⠀⠀⣠⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⢨⡍⠉⡉⢉⡉⠉⠉⡉⢉⡉⢉⠩⠉⠉⠉⡉⡉⢉⠉⠉⠉⣩⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣥⣬⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⡅⢿⢸ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠃⠀⠀⣄⣾⣧⣤⣧⣤⣤⣤⣤⣴⣬⣴⣬⣴⣤⣤⣤⣧⣧⣤⣤⣥⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢾⢸ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣍⣉⣍⣉⡁⣈⢸ ⣦⣬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠙⠝⠛⠁⠉⢸ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣰⢸ ⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⢸ ⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⡿⠿⠿⠻⠿⠿⠿⢋⣉⣤⣍⣩⣉⣉⣛⣛⣛⣛⡛⠻⢛⠛⣉⢴⣶⣆⡛⠟⠛⣛⠛⠻⣿⠇⢿⢸ ⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠙⠛⠉⠋⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠀⠐⠛⠒⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠈⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠂⠉⠈⠛⠘ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 351 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Brett_Wilson_LLP_Lodged_a_Lawsuit_Against_Tux_Machines_for_Amer.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Brett_Wilson_LLP_Lodged_a_Lawsuit_Against_Tux_Machines_for_Amer.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Brett Wilson LLP Lodged a Lawsuit Against Tux Machines for Americans; Now Brett Wilson LLP is Sued⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 24, 2025, updated Sep 24, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Adult_kudu_cow_with_a_group_of_other_kudus_in_a_green_bush landscape_in_South_Africa⦈_ There are no sacred cows The law firm acting for Americans who SLAPPed Tux Machines last year [1, 2] has just_been_sued.

Note regarding arm SD card images: For convenience for those without console access to the system, a freebsd user with a password of freebsd is available by default for ssh(1) access. Additionally, the root user password is set to root. It is strongly recommended to change the password for both users after gaining access to the system. Installer images and memory stick images are available here: https://download.freebsd.org/snapshots/ISO-IMAGES/15.0/ The image checksums follow at the end of this e-mail. If you notice problems you can report them through the Bugzilla PR system or on the -stable mailing list. If you would like to use Git to do a source based update of an existing system, use the "stable/15" branch. A summary of changes since ALPHA2 includes: o Many pkgbase-related fixes to release image building and installation. o Various LinuxKPI and WiFi updates. o unbound update to 1.23.1. o bc update to 7.1.0 A list of changes since 14.0 is available in the stable/15 release notes: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/15.0R/relnotes/ Please note, the release notes page is not yet complete, and will be updated on an ongoing basis as the 15.0-RELEASE cycle progresses.

One was the report the captain filed about the wreck, in which he explained that the ship sank roughly five miles from shore in 150-foot-deep water. The other was a report from William Sanderson, the keeper of the nearby Cana Island Lighthouse, who saw the masts of a schooner breaking the surface closer to the shore. # ⚓ Matthew Brunelle ☛ Learning_About_Municipal_Open_Data_with a_Cambridge_Workshop⠀⇛ The mention of other towns got me looking though. I found out that the City of Cambridge was offering an Open Data Workshop, hosted in the wonderful Cambridge Public Library. [^ Public services like libraries are hugely important! Not only did they host the event, but also the library had laptops people could check out to use for the workshop.] The workshop was designed to help equip a non- technical audience with the skills needed to start working with the data assets the city has opened up. Alex Epstein & Reinhard Engels, both former librarians, ran the session. To paraphrase them: "something about librarians makes them like collecting, categorizing and sharing data." ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 830 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Games_BlockBlasters_and_Roll_Dice_in_the_Linux_Terminal.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Games_BlockBlasters_and_Roll_Dice_in_the_Linux_Terminal.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: BlockBlasters and Roll Dice in the Linux Terminal⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 24, 2025 * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Twitch_streamer_raising_money_for_cancer_treatment_has funds_stolen_by_malware-ridden_Steam_game_—_BlockBlasters_title_stole $150,000_from_hundreds_of_players⠀⇛ Twitch streamer "RastalandTV" had $32,000 worth of cryptocurrency stolen via malware hidden in a Steam game. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ You_Can_Roll_Dice_in_the_Linux_Terminal,_Here's_How⠀⇛ We usually think of the terminal as something purely functional—tweaking Linux settings, installing updates, or running commands for work.

Yes, your Linux terminal can double as a digital dice roller. § Why Roll Dice in the Terminal? Now, you might wonder, why bother rolling dice in the terminal when we already have physical dice? Fair question! Dice are indeed the heartbeat of board games like Monopoly, Catan, and Dungeons & Dragons.

However, I was then informed that the people who created KDE were also developing their own distribution, called, surprise surprise, KDE Linux. So, I grabbed one of my older laptops, threw KDE Linux on it, and gave it a spin. And you know what? I think they're onto something very cool.

That’s not to say that there’s no space for a Linux distro on these pages if it is merited though, as for example we marked its 30th anniversary with a look at Slackware. If a distro has something interesting to offer it’s definitely worth a look, which brings us to today’s subject. KDE Linux is an eponymous distro produced by the makers of the KDE Plasma desktop environment and associated applications, and it serves as a technical demo of what KDE can be, a reference KDE-based distribution, and an entirely new desktop Linux distribution all in one. As such, it always has the latest in all things KDE, but aside from that perhaps what makes it even more interesting is that as an entirely new distribution it has a much more modern structure than many of the ones we’re used to that have their roots in decades past. Where in a traditional distro the system is built from the ground up on install, KDE Linux is an immutable base distribution, in which successive versions are supplied as prebuilt images on which the user space is overlaid. This makes it very much worth a look.

It’s written in C++, and designed to be fast, standards-compliant, and free of external dependencies. Its main selling point? Unlike most alternative browsers today, Ladybird doesn’t sit on top of Chromium or WebKit. Instead, it’s building a completely new rendering engine from scratch, which is a rare thing in today’s web landscape.

Does it do the jump threading you expect it to? Maybe you’re sitting there idly wondering while you eat a cookie, but maybe that thought would only have occurred to you while you were scrolling through the optimizer. * ⚓ Ted Unangst ☛ slice_tails_don't_grow_forever⠀⇛ In a garbage collected language, one needs to be cautious about leaks caused by errant references, but caution can turn to paranoia. In go, I like to make little fifo queues by appending to the tail of a slice. But does this grow forever? * ⚓ Dayvi Schuster ☛ Why_Zig_Feels_More_Practical_Than_Rust_for_Real-World CLI_Tools⠀⇛ So when it comes to memory management there are two terms you really need to know, the stack and the heap. * ⚓ Dayvi Schuster ☛ Why_I_Still_Reach_for_C_for_Certain_Projects⠀⇛ So a while back I got tired of xserver and decided to give wayland a try. I use Arch (BTW) with a tiling window manager (dwm) and I wanted to try something new, since I had a couple of annoyances with xserver. I’ve heard some good things about wayland so I thought you know what, why not let’s give it a shot. * ⚓ Chris Done ☛ Laws⠀⇛ Laws that apply to our industry (and others) are interesting to me, and I’m writing up here the ones that often come to mind. I usually forget the name, so writing them up might be helpful for remembering in future. * ⚓ esveo GmbH ☛ Tips_for_Working_with_Legacy_Code⠀⇛ One tactic is making commits where the only message is “WIP” or “Work in Progress”. These give you checkpoints that you can backtrack to if you find your attempt to fix things has made everything go wrong. You can jump backwards through time with git checkout HEAD~N, where N is the number of commits you want to undo. Have a look around and decide if that’s the right place, then create a new branch with git switch -c new-branch- name and carry on from that point. Later on you can clean up unneeded branches with git branch -d old-branch-name-1 old- branch-name-2. * ⚓ ACM ☛ Fifty_Years_of_Open_Source_Software_Supply-Chain_Security_– Communications_of_the_ACM⠀⇛ Open source software supply-chain security is a hot topic, especially after the XZ attack, but what exactly does it mean? In the absence of an agreed-upon definition, I suggest this one, in three parts: [...] * ⚓ Adnan Siddiqi ☛ Building_Your_First_Multi-Signal_Trading_Strategy_with RSI_and_Moving_Averages⠀⇛ So in this post, we are going to combine two indicators: RSI and Moving Averages to come up with a strategy. But first, let’s talk about what we mean by a “strategy.” A trading strategy is simply a set of rules that tells you when to buy and when to sell. It’s different from just using individual indicators because it combines multiple signals into a complete system. Whether you use a single indicator or a set of indicators, in the end, we are going to generate buy/sell signals or open long/short positions. When you rely on a single indicator, for instance, RSI alone, you’ll often get false signals. RSI might show that a stock is oversold and ready to bounce, but if the overall trend is still down, that bounce might never come. Or it might be so weak that you barely break even before the price falls again. The same thing happens with moving averages. A crossover might signal a new uptrend, but without additional confirmation, you could be buying right into a temporary spike that quickly reverses. I have already discussed RSI and Moving Averages in previous posts, which could give you an idea about the working of these two indicators. We are going to combine both to come up with a strategy. * ⚓ NVISO Labs ☛ Detection_Engineering:_Practicing_Detection-as-Code_– Deployment_–_Part_6⠀⇛ The deployment phase is one of the most challenging steps in the Detection Development Life Cycle due to its implementation complexity. In this part, we will explore the principles and practices of deploying rules to target platforms. Additionally, we will go through some of the challenges encountered when designing and implementing a deployment pipeline, along with suggestions on how to overcome them, to ensure that our Continuous Deployment pipeline operates smoothly. * ⚓ OpenSUSE ☛ openQA_Gains_AI-Friendly_Interface⠀⇛ This marks a pivotal step toward embedding Artificial Intelligence [sic] into its open-source software development workflows. * § R / R-Script⠀➾ o ⚓ Rlang ☛ Clean_R_Tests_with_`local_mocked_bindings`_and_Dependency Wrapping⠀⇛ Testing functions that rely on external dependencies is hard. Your tests become slow, fragile, and unreliable when they depend on external APIs, file systems, or services. Worse yet, some dependencies like Sys.time() return values that change constantly, making consistent testing nearly impossible. The solution is simple: wrap external dependencies in your own functions and stub them with testthat:: local_mocked_bindings. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1661 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Red_Hat_and_Fedora_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Red_Hat_and_Fedora_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Red Hat and Fedora Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 24, 2025 * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ How_to_set_up_KServe_autoscaling_for_vLLM_with_KEDA⠀⇛ Deploying machine learning models in a production environment presents a unique set of challenges, and one of the most critical is ensuring that your inference service can handle varying levels of traffic with efficiency and reliability. The unpredictable nature of Hey Hi (AI) workloads, where traffic can spike dramatically and resource needs can fluctuate based on factors like varying input sequence lengths, token generation lengths or the number of concurrent requests, often means that traditional autoscaling methods fall short.  Relying solely on CPU or memory usage can lead to either overprovisioning and wasted resources, or underprovisioning and poor user experience. Similarly, a high GPU utilization might indicate efficient usage of accelerators or it can also signify reaching a saturated state, therefore industry best practices for LLM autoscaling have shifted towards more workload-related specific metrics.   In this blog post, we will introduce a more sophisticated and flexible solution. We will walk through the process of setting up KServe autoscaling by leveraging the power of vLLM, KEDA (Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaling, illustrated in Figure 1), and the custom metrics autoscaler operator in Open Data Hub (ODH). This powerful combination allows us to scale our vLLM services on a wide range of custom, application-specific signals, not just generic metrics. This provides a level of control and efficiency that is tailored to the specific demands of your Hey Hi (AI) workloads. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Customize_RHEL_CoreOS_at_scale:_On-cluster_image_mode_in OpenShift⠀⇛ If you've ever needed to add a custom driver, deploy a critical hotfix, or install monitoring agents on your OpenShift nodes, you know the challenge: How do you customize Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux CoreOS without compromising its scalable design? Until now, this meant choosing between the reliability of stock Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux CoreOS or the flexibility of package mode Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux (RHEL) workers. Meet image mode on Red_Hat_OpenShift, bringing you Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux CoreOS the way that it should be. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ How_I_used_Cursor_Hey_Hi_(AI)_to_migrate_a_Bash_test_suite_to Python⠀⇛ Migrating a large codebase from one language to another can be time-consuming. What if an Hey Hi (AI) tool could do the heavy lifting for you? Our team recently needed to migrate our Bash container test suite, container-common-scripts, to a new Python-based CI suite (container-ci-suite). I decided to experiment with the Cursor Hey Hi (AI) code editor to see if it could speed up the process. This article walks how easy it is to migrate a project from one programming or scripting language to another with Cursor. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Skopeo:_The_unsung_hero_of_GNU/Linux_container-tools⠀⇛ The container-tools meta-package, found on Fedora GNU/Linux and derivatives such as Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux, is a collection of tools designed to work with Open Container Initiative (OCI) container images. They originated in the containers project on Microsoft's proprietary prison GitHub , which was donated_to the_Cloud_Native_Computing_Foundation_(CNCF) and is now known as the Podman_Container_Tools project. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Automate_certificate_management_in_OpenShift⠀⇛ In the world of modern IT, managing certificates is a constant challenge. For DevOps engineers, SREs, and IT managers working with a handful of clusters, it’s a manual effort that’s often time consuming. Without a standardized, automated process, application users might create certificates based on their preference, not on organizational guidelines, creating a major governance and security risk. The solution isn't to work faster. It's to automate. In this article, we’ll explore how to automate the entire certificate lifecycle in Red_Hat_OpenShift using the cert-manager_operator_for_Red_Bait_OpenShift with Venafi, providing a secure and scalable solution for both platform and application certificates. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Building_an_adaptable_enterprise:_A_guide_to_AI readiness [Ed: Slop promoting by IBM Red Hat]⠀⇛ The key question you must address isn't what your specific AI plan should be, it's how you can build an enterprise capable of adapting to any disruption. This means moving beyond merely reacting to and recovering from change to being able to continuously deliver value while the world is changing around you. You need to achieve enterprise durability and adaptability. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ AI_and_Red_Hat:_Powering_the_future_of_cable providers [Ed: IBM turned Red Hat into a buzzwords circus whose main aim is to prop up IBM's share price (based on lies and baseless hype)]⠀⇛ Red Hat cable, media and entertainment resource page * ⚓ Major Hayden ☛ Monitor_system_and_GPU_performance_with_Performance_Co- Pilot⠀⇛ I’ve used so many performance monitoring tools and systems over the years.

To find answers I reached out to Stefano Zacchiroli, a former Debian project leader and co-founder of Software Heritage, the international nonprofit that works with UNESCO to collect, preserve, and share publicly available software source code. The first thing Zacchiroli pointed out is that these days all our society needs software reproducibility, not just programmers, because practically all advances in science and industry happen through software. In a saner world, reproducibility would be a mandatory component of the supply chain of every product that is or includes software. As far as science is concerned, he said, this means that researchers must publish and preserve all the software they use in ways that really allow others to run it exactly as they did. Unfortunately, according to Zacchiroli, very few people (including many FOSS developers) understand that project repositories on platforms like Github cannot be a solution. Links to such pages add little or nothing to reproducibility, even when they do specify which version of that software was used — which seldom happens in scientific papers. The problem, of course, is that not only can entire projects vanish from a repository at any moment, but even the software commits being hosted may change or disappear by the time someone needs to study or recompile them.

It must keep moving forward to survive. Not all sharks are obligate ram ventilators, and not all IT changes all the time, but without innovation the sector would curdle and die. Venture capitalists and cash-rich tech companies feel this most keenly, which is why they swarm like makos to the bleeding edge. But innovation itself is not enough. Blockchain is very clever, but has made the world a nastier place while losing a lot of people a lot of money. AI’s trajectory from wait-and-see could just as easily go that way as any other. Actual change, innovation that sticks around and becomes part of a better way forward, doesn’t have to and really should not make its inventors billionaires.

We talk about small and portable laptops, and of course answer your questions. * § Kernel Space⠀➾ o ⚓ Klara ☛ What_the_Future_Brings_–_ZFS_Features,_Roadmap,_and Innovations⠀⇛ The OpenZFS project has a bright and encouraging future as it continues to gain momentum and adoption as the reliable, flexible, and performant filesystem for use cases from small embedded appliances and IoT devices, through every scale of enterprise, to the biggest research clusters in the world. Today, we’ll look at what is coming in the near term and where ZFS might take us over the next few years as the storage landscape continues to evolve. * § Games⠀➾ o ⚓ SuperTuxKart_Evolution_Roadmap⠀⇛ Along with the announcement of SuperTuxKart Evolution, we promised that we would release a roadmap for the project. Here it is, with our team walking a thin line between the urge to share good news and the need to not over-promise. There is a reason, after all, while vague promises and "coming soon" announcements are so common. As a brief reminder, SuperTuxKart Evolution is the name of the project’s next major release. With all the changes we are hard at work bringing to life, we see it as a new game within the same series, rather than as a mere update. o ⚓ Juan J Martínez ☛ Physical_editions_coming!⠀⇛ The Heart of Salamanderland is available on cassette, 3" and 3.5" diskette, and comes in a nice box –like other Poly Play editions– with a manual (with instructions, monster descriptions, and a comic), an A3 poster and an micro SD card with the sound track. The cover art was kindly contributed by Josep Febrer, that happens to be a fan of the game. o ⚓ Chris ☛ Procedural_Rhetoric:_Opinions_as_Algorithms⠀⇛ This is a game where the player takes the role of a family of settlers traversing North America westward, while carefully managing their supplies to avoid running out during critical events. The game is a great success, but it paints a one-sided picture of what life along the Oregon trail was like. A lot of people who were not travelling settlers lived there, and the game tells us nothing of their lives. It’s as if they didn’t exist.

And it comes with a bunch of shiny new features. Most of the work has been funded by NLnet via NGI Zero_Entrust with public_money provided by the European Commission. § Multi-Account Support Kaidan supports the simultaneous usage of multiple accounts now. Imagine you could use the same chat app at work and with your friends. All your favorite and accustomed features would always be accessible without switching apps. It is possible with XMPP and finally with Kaidan too! * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o ⚓ LibreNews ☛ The_Golden_Rule_of_Switching_to_Linux:_Restructure Your_Life⠀⇛ To make the learning curve less steep and the transition more gradual, people often decide to keep their existing Windows installation intact and learn Linux at their own pace, which eventually leads to failure. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2963 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Why_ZorinOS_18_might_be_the_new_best_Linux_distro_and_I_ve_trie.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/24/Why_ZorinOS_18_might_be_the_new_best_Linux_distro_and_I_ve_trie.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Why ZorinOS 18 might be the new best Linux distro - and I've tried them all⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 24, 2025 I've been a big fan of ZorinOS for a long time. I've found the OS's approach to be quite refreshing, and the team behind it is always ready to add something fresh to new releases. When I received the invite to test the beta of the latest release (18), I assumed there was something special in store. Although the beta release of ZoronOS 18 doesn't offer a profound change to the operating system or UI, all of the polish and new bits come together to create something that I'm confident anyone could not only use but also enjoy using. And by anyone, I mean you, your children, your parents, and your grandparents. It's that easy. ZorinOS is also beautiful.

And now, these capabilities are publicly available to everyone, as TernFS enters the landscape, joining projects like Ceph, Lustre, and GlusterFS that have long dominated the field. But before we continue, let’s shed some more light on the filesystem itself.
