The software has come a long way over the years and has become one of the most refined Linux-based user interfaces you can find without having to apply custom themes and make serious under-the-hood alterations. Although it's a great choice for those switching from macOS and Windows, GNOME isn't perfect, and I always make some tweaks to make it truly my own Linux OS. And that's what's great about GNOME and Linux distributions. You can edit it as little or as in-depth as desired.

Plus, you can choose between a couple of options when deploying virtual machines. For casual users, you can run them on your daily driver via Type-2 hypervisors, while hardcore home labbers have the option of deploying them on dedicated home servers using powerful virtualization platforms. Better yet, modern hypervisors can run most of the popular operating systems inside VMs – including FreeBSD distros and even Hackintosh setups. However, my home lab primarily utilizes Linux-based virtual machines, and here are some of the best distros I host inside virtualized environments.

It means you've got to dig deep into how your system is set up, understand the tricky bits of how your hardware talks to the software, and really take advantage of the insane flexibility that Linux offers. Linux doesn’t force you to do anything, which is great, but it means, unless you get a specialized gaming distro like Bazzite, you have to tell it how to optimize itself for your gameplay. You've got so many ways to boost performance, whether it's tweaking kernel parameters, optimizing your graphics drivers, picking the perfect desktop environment, or fine-tuning the settings for gaming.

At the time, it did not happen, so we thought we were wrong. But actually, we were just way ahead of the curve! This happened as we were travelling to attend the Tokyo Games Show 2025, so this piece of news is a few days late. But no matter! It’s an key milestone in itself. This is the first time that a AAA game studio makes a native GNU/Linux client for one of their titles, specifically because of the Steam Deck. Larian has published a whole page on how to select the native version of Baldur’s Gate 3 for the Steam Deck. But more important, we’d like to know how this came to be. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 459 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/10/11/Asmi_Linux_Ubuntu_based_distribution.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/10/11/Asmi_Linux_Ubuntu_based_distribution.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Asmi Linux – Ubuntu-based distribution⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Oct 11, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇XFCE⦈_ Quoting: Asmi Linux - Ubuntu-based distribution - LinuxLinks — Asmi Linux is a desktop-oriented Linux distribution based on Ubuntu.

This change required legal input, and was one of the reasons that I had a call with a lawyer last week. With that done we have been able to drop the requirement that members provide a legally registered name: as long as the name you provide is used elsewhere and we have a valid email address, that should be enough. I’d like to thank community members for their patience while we dealt with this matter. I’d also like to thank Andrea Veri for helping with the change, as well as all the work he’s done over the years on the GNOME Foundation Membership Committee. He’s a hugely important part of the Foundation and has been tireless over many years helping to keep our membership running smoothly. Thank you Andrea!

There was very little bloat in the form of apps or features that users didn't want, and it really felt like a blank slate. With each passing Windows version, more useless bloat has been added. I do not want a preinstalled TikTok app. I do not want a preinstalled LinkedIn app. I definitely do not want Candy Crush preinstalled either, and I imagine the vast majority of Windows users share this sentiment. Even if it's a suggestion in my Start menu, that's too much for a lot of users, and it's pushing them towards cleaner operating systems. o § Kernel Space⠀➾ # ⚓ Liliputing ☛ Lilbits:_Intel_shifts_strategy_on_open_source contributions,_Ubuntu_25.10_released,_and_TiVo_exits_the_DVR business⠀⇛ Intel has been a major contributor to open source projects over the years, but the thing about open source software is that anybody can use it – including the company’s competitors. Now Intel says it plans to be more strategic about how it contributes to open source projects moving forward as part of an effort to make sure that it’s benefiting more than its competitors. # ⚓ The Stack ☛ Was_this_DEFCON_eBPF_bug_talk_hallucinated?⠀⇛ In August, a relatively unknown security researcher named Agostino “Van1sh” Panico gave a talk at hacking conference Defcon. The 45-slide deck presenting several vulnerabilities in Linux kernel technology extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) was initially well-received.

Part of the reason for that is the end of Windows 10. At the same time, Linux has come a long way since its early days of only targeting developers, admins, or computer science majors. This evolution has made it possible to never touch the command line (which is something that I firmly believe is possible). For those who doubt the veracity of my claim, let me introduce you (and those new to Linux) to GUI apps that take the place of command-line tools. All of these apps are free to install and use. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § SUSE/OpenSUSE⠀➾ # ⚓ OpenSUSE ☛ Planet_News_Roundup⠀⇛ The below featured highlights listed on the community’s blog feed aggregator are from October 4 to 10. o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ The_open_source_engine_driving_AI_from experiment_to_production_and_why_inference_is_everything [Ed: The LLMs hype/scam is promoted by IBM Red Hat far too often; this won't age well, it's a bubble.]⠀⇛ For the last several years, the narrative around artificial intelligence (AI) has been dominated by large language models (LLMs) and the monumental effort of training them.

More specifically, this project is a BR2_EXTERNAL repository for Buildroot, with a number of defconfigs that allow to quickly build embedded GNU/Linux systems for the STM32MPU Discovery Kit platforms and Evaluation board. * § Graphics Stack⠀➾ o ⚓ Sebastian_Wick:_SO_PEERPIDFD_Gets_More_Useful⠀⇛ A while ago I wrote about the_limited_usefulness_of SO_PEERPIDFD. for authenticating sandboxed applications. The core problem was simple: while pidfds gave us a race- free way to identify a process, we still had no standardized way to figure out what that process actually was - which sandbox it ran in, what application it represented, or what permissions it should have. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § SUSE/OpenSUSE⠀➾ # ⚓ Request_Workflow:_Accept_&_Forward_by_Default_and_Clearer History⠀⇛ Alright!

This time with some small improvements to the request workflow: “Accept and Forward” is now the default action for requests that can be forwarded, and we have removed the confusing colors from the icons in the Comments & History timeline when adding a review. We started the redesign of the request workflow in August 2022. Then, in September 2022, we focused on the support of multi-action submit requests. # ⚓ Dominique Leuenberger ☛ Tumbleweed_–_Review_of_the_week 2025/41⠀⇛ Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Week 41 started strong, with daily snapshots released, but unfortunately, we hit some roadblocks by the end of the week. A seemingly harmless rename of a snapper plugin caused quite some havoc in openQA, as SELinux was unaware of that change and consequently, a completely untrusted executable was blocked from messing around with the bootloader. Generally, exactly what we want – except in this case, it was an intentional rename of a file. The change has been retracted for now and will be given back to engineering. o § Debian Family⠀➾ # ⚓ Reproducible_Builds:_Reproducible_Builds_in_September 2025⠀⇛ Welcome to the September 2025 report from the Reproducible_Builds project!

If you keep the clock, calendar or weather icons pinned in the Ubuntu Dock (or an equivalent, like Dash to Panel) and you find yourself wishing they were dynamic, like macOS’ native equivalents, this does it!

Not burnt, not raw, just... insufficient. A pale, anemic tan that whispered of warmth but never truly delivered the satisfying crunch. It was the color of compromise. And it was deliberate. My OmniHome™ SynapseToaster™, a sleek obsidian slab that cost more than my first car, was perfectly capable of producing golden-brown perfection. That capability was locked behind DRM. A notification would slide gracefully onto my OmniTab™ screen every morning: "Experience the Maillard reaction as our chefs intended. Upgrade to the Artisan Browning™ subscription for just 10 credits a month." I owned the hardware. The nichrome heating elements, the thermistors, the microprocessor - it was all mine. But I didn't have the right to use it properly. OmniCorp did. They were the landlords of my own appliance. Tonight, I was staging a coup. The toolkit was a relic, a collection of contraband I'd hoarded for years. A pentalobe driver with the tip ground down to a custom profile. A spudger carved from a recycled polymer. A USB-to-serial adapter with the authentication chip carefully bypassed. These were the tools of a criminal class the media called "tinkerers." The government, in its infinite partnership with OmniCorp, called us technology terrorists. The toaster's underside was a seamless plane of polished metal. No screws, no seams, no entry point. That was the point. A sealed box, designed to be replaced, never repaired, never understood. But I knew its secrets. I pressed a specific sequence on the capacitive touch panel - Dark, Bagel, Defrost, Dark, Cancel - and a tiny click echoed in the silent kitchen. A hairline seam appeared near the base. My heart hammered against my ribs. This was it. The violation of Section 7, Paragraph 4 of the Consumer Protection and Corporate Sovereignty Act. Circumvention of a Technological Protection Measure. A Class C felony. For toast.

Unfortunately, Microsoft is shutting down more of those workarounds, which is just affirming my decision to replace Windows with Linux as my daily driver desktop. [...] While Windows 11 appears to be plagued with some sort of technical issue hindering proper configuration without a login and a connection to remote servers, that has never been and still is not an issue on Linux. It's the default experience to set up your Linux desktop or server with whatever account name you want, be it your real name, a fictional character's name, or just a code word. You don't need a working email address; you only need a handle and a strong password you can remember. If you happen to choose Ubuntu Linux as your distribution, it may ask if you want to register for an Ubuntu Pro subscription. It's never been required, though, and it's intended for businesses and professional administrators anyway. For most folks, local accounts are the expected and default experience.

The main fix addresses a problem that made SSH sessions unusable when ControlPersist was enabled. This feature, which keeps a master connection open for faster reuse, was mismanaging terminal connections in version 10.1. The bug left users unable to interact with remote sessions properly. OpenSSH 10.2 also includes updates to ssh-keygen, fixing two issues: one that prevented proper key download from PKCS#11 tokens, and another that caused errors during CA signing operations when the certificate authority key was stored in ssh-agent.

But this one’s a bit different. Instead of focusing on installation, it lets you search for and view detailed information about packages—whether they’re from AUR or the official repos—without leaving your terminal. Meet Pacsea. It is a new Rust-written terminal user interface (TUI) that provides a unified way to search for and inspect packages from both the official Arch repos and the AUR, offering a faster, keyboard-driven alternative to traditional AUR helpers. At its core, Pacsea is built around a clean three-pane layout. The interface shows search results, recent or queued installs, and detailed package information—all visible at once. It also includes a live PKGBUILD viewer that can be toggled with a simple keyboard shortcut, so users can quickly check a build script before installing anything.

Tails isn’t just any Linux distribution. It’s designed to allow you to travel safely on the internet, no matter what your destination. In today’s world of constant cybersecurity attacks and third parties using our data against us, any chance we can take to obfuscate our information should be considered a win, and Tails nails it — and has been doing so for more than 16 years. These days it’s nailing it more than ever, thanks to its merger last year with the Tor Project, the organization behind The Onion Router — or Tor browser — which has always been at Tails’s core. If you’re a Linux user, you know how important privacy and security are. If you’re only now considering making the jump to Linux, you might be doing so because you’re tired of Microsoft, Google, or Apple spying on you. Or maybe you travel a lot and don’t want to trust your data to random coffee shop networks. Either way, with Linux, there are always tools to help keep your privacy safe and prevent censorship, and Tails is a constantly evolving one of those tools.

One thing we noticed was, instead of salespeople they have silly gimmicks that don't even work. Like a machine that claims to assess foot size but is instead asking for personal details like an E-mail address and at the end delivers nothing at all, for purely technical reasons (malfunction). Those are data-collecting gadgets disguised as sales assistants. Worse yet, there are places that no longer accept cash payments. Sometimes you ask several times (several people) and get contradictory answers, sometimes the answers are the same, i.e. consistent. It feels like the old days of window shopping or shopping or physically walking into stores isn't the same; many shops are mostly empty, sometimes completely empty, and some tills aren't attended by anybody. In a world like this, how valued is the customer? █ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣠⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⠀⠀⣀⣀⡀⠀⢀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣤⣀⣀⡀⣠⣀⣀⣀⢀⣠⣀⣀⣄⢀⣤⣤⣤⡄⠈⣤⠀⠀⠠⣀⣀⣀⣀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⡷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠸⡆⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⢀⡇⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣷⡄⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⣿⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠘⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣠⣶⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣿⣿⡆⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⢹⡇⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡷⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⢷⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠻⢇⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣹⣿⣿⠇⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠈⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠿⠋⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀ ⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀ ⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠉⠁⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠋⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⢹⣿⣿⣟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠤⠤⠄⠀⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡛⡛⡀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2456 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/10/11/This_50_MB_operating_system_can_resurrect_your_old_PC.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/10/11/This_50_MB_operating_system_can_resurrect_your_old_PC.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ This 50 MB operating system can resurrect your old PC⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Oct 11, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Damn_Small_Linux⦈_ I have a decade-old Dell Inspiron laptop with a 2nd-gen Intel Core i3 processor, 4 GB RAM, and an integrated Intel HD GPU. It came with Windows 7 out of the box and was eventually upgraded to Windows 10. However, after 13 years, it's not the most enthusiastic laptop, and getting anything done on it seems like a task in itself. Even though Windows 10 is dying, your hardware doesn't have to go with it. Instead of recycling the PC, I decided to give it another chance with Damn Small Linux—an OS that famously started as a 50 MB experiment and proved you don't need bloated software to have a functional computer. While the modern version has grown to 700 MB to include necessary drivers and applications, it's still tiny enough to breathe life back into old hardware.

Rather, you want to focus on tangible elements, such as how quickly the distro boots, how fast a web browser launches, and whether drivers and media codecs work without requiring stressful hacks or fixes. The goal isn't absolute minimalism. If it were, Tiny Core Linux or Puppy Linux would be clear winners. We’re aiming for a sufficiently functional distro that minimizes wasted resources, yet handles everything. Peppermint OS is the one that stands out, even though there are a few honorable mentions (MX Linux [Fluxbox edition] and Bodhi Linux). It balances footprint and usability.

everything you do on your Linux machine, from viewing a PDF to saving an image and running an app. The core model keeps things simple, but there are quite a few basic details to get started with. § Permissions Control What You Can Do With a File Most of the time you’ll deal with permissions, it will be when you’re trying to save or read a file. Every file (technically, every inode) has a set of permissions attached to it. These determine whether you (or any other user) can read from a file or write to it. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ Weekend_Project:_Personalize_Your_Raspberry_Pi_OS_Command Line⠀⇛ Are you looking for a fun way to refresh your Raspberry Pi’s command line experience? You don’t have to look far to find a simple and fun way to overhaul the terminal on your Pi. With Oh My ZSH or Starship, you can have a fully customized Pi experience this weekend. § You Don’t Need a New App to Make Your Terminal Look Nice If you’re tired of the way that your Raspberry Pi’s terminal looks, you don’t actually need a new app to customize your experience. While there definitely are other terminals out there, personalizing your command line is actually much simpler than that. To get a pretty (and feature-packed) terminal experience, you simply need to install a few extensions that work right within LXTerminal. * ⚓ XDA ☛ 6_hidden_Proxmox_tricks_I_wish_I_knew_sooner⠀⇛ For a virtualization platform designed for home server tasks, Proxmox has a fairly straightforward interface that’s easy to pick up.

Heck, I’ve been a Proxmox fanatic for a long time, and it still took me a while to stumble onto the more obscure facilities. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3121 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/10/11/today_s_howtos.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/10/11/today_s_howtos.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Oct 11, 2025 * ⚓ Sergio_Cipriano:_Avoiding_5XX_errors_by_adjusting_Load_Balancer_Idle Timeout⠀⇛ Recently I faced a problem in production where a client was running a RabbitMQ server behind the Load Balancers we provisioned and the TCP connections were closed every minute. * ⚓ Bring_Hyprland_with_ML4W_Dotfiles_functionality_to_Cosmic_Beta_DE_via setup_Dual_DE_environment_on_top_of_CachyOS_082425⠀⇛  We start with deployment of Cosmic Beta DE via CachyOS 082425 Calamares installer.

However, the file system, caching tools, and software-based backup provisions are just as important as the underlying hardware.
