In Finland synchronization in gearboxes is starting to become a thing nowadays. Double clutching for 20 years now (38).

Just kidding, got my first automatic two years ago, so yes.

There's a base image of ublue, which is Silverblue without a DE. I'd suppose you can mostly just layer e.g. Sway or i3 on top.

Traditional package model will still have it's usage, of course, I agree. But if Silverblue works for a developer like me, I'd say a for more "regular" users immutable distros seem like a very viable option.

I recently put the nvidia variant of ublue-os on my work laptop, which has Optimus graphics. Couldn't be happier.

It's great to see these variants popping up! I really think ostree may be the future for desktop Linux, and not even very far away.

Thank you!

I started using gestures, and haven't been able to transition away since.

Both have their pros and cons.

Rsyslog to collect logs to a single server, then lnav for viewing them on that server is a good combo. Oldschool but very effective for self-host scale.

Glad the tip was useful!

For a bit enhanced log file viewing, you could use something like lnav, I think it's packaged for most distributions.

Cockpit can be useful for journald, but personally I think GUI stuff is a bit clunky for logs.

Grep, awk and sed are powerful tools, even with only basic knowledge of them. Vim in readonly mode is actually quite effective for single files too.

For aggregating multiple servers' logs good ol' rsyslog is good, but not simple to set up. There are tutorials online.

Oh the times when getting GTA from a friend required 30+ 3½" floppy disks IIRC. That plus making 5 or 6 round trips to friend's house, because one of them almost always got corrupted during the zip process.

And since no one had the disk space or knowhow to store the zip packets on HDD for the inevitable re-copying, had to redo the whole pack from scratch each time.

Edit: disk->HDD

Did a bit of research and found out the feature is available on Fennec F-Droid too via about:config.

Here's how to enable: https://community.mozilla.org/en/campaigns/firefox-cookie-banner-handling/

Remember to check the polarity of the plug too. Some have + in the center pin, others have -

This must be related to people in their 20's not knowing how to read a traditional clock anymore.

I'd second this. Fedora is great, don't get me wrong, but it's not rolling or stable.

I think stable was referring to not crashing here.

I'd go the SSH + sudo way.

Sudo can be quite finely tuned to only allow specific commands. If you want to lock the SSH session further, look into rbash.

Most Debian based distros, actually.

Any VPS provider can access your data via the hypervisor if they want, there's just no way to prevent it. It has nothing to do with what payment methods are accepted.

If you want to be sure, you need your own hardware on your own premises.
