q. why am i seeing all these packages on my debian testing/unstable box getting replaced with ones named "...t64"?

a. because the debian project has begun the process of making all its software year-2038 safe (woah)

I AM SO DISAPPOINTED WITH UBUNTU 24.04 😡
https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-24-04-disappointment/

I'm so glad that I got rid of #Ubuntu (actually #Xubuntu) and #snap.

Now, I need to get rid of #NixOS as well, despite having invested (too) much effort. 😞

#Debian is my true and only safe heaven, as it seems.

I like to create encrypted storage space to hold the contents of my home directory that is separate from the root filesystem. This makes it easier if I decide to re-install Linux on the target system while preserving user data.

LMDE offers an "expert-mode" install option that is considerably more flexible in handling a custom partition layout of disk storage. I use it to create encrypted partitions for root and home (no LVM):

The more you know, man kann Docker einfach neu installieren und alle Container bleiben bestehen!

Ich hatte Docker auf Debian über 'apt install docker.io' installiert, damit bekommt man aber eine alte, inoffizielle Version (v20.10.24).

Nun bin ich mutig der offiziellen Anleitung gefolgt, habe alle alten Pakete, die zu Docker gehören entfernt und stattdessen 'docker-ce' installiert (v26.1.0).

Und siehe da, alle Container laufen noch/wieder.

Fun, that #dolibarr 11→19 upgrade to prepare another #debian 11→12 upgrade (earlier #dolibarr didn't quite like PHP 8.2), that raised what appeared to be Unicode-related exceptions regarding public holidays in Greece… 😂

Question on the PHP glibc vulnerability:

Does anyone know a blog post or other documentation for how to turn off the character set that allows the vulnerability in Ubuntu and Debian?

Here's a good blog post by Rocky Linux on the subject, but I'm not sure how to translate the instructions to Debian and Ubuntu.

System-wide, user installed icon themes are stored in /usr/local/share/icons, themes are in /usr/local/share/themes. Where should I put cursors if I want them available system-wide?

Putting them in /usr/local/share/icons/ doesn't seem to work.

Futhark has been added to #Debian (unstable). I think this is the first program mainly written by me that is in Debian (although there are other programs with my contributions). I remember that Debian used to have the largest package repository, but it seems other distributions are much swifter (or have much lower standards) these days.

»Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Das große Linux-Update ändert viel, aber nicht nur zum Besseren:
Der Desktop der neuen Version mit Langzeit-Support ist modern, die Basis solide. Das Wirrwarr rund um die Softwareausstattung führt aber zu zahlreichen Irritationen«

…oder gleich Debian, SuSE oder der gleichen Produktiv auf dem Desktop nutzen! Ich nutze was anderes aber das ist immer auch Geschmackssache ect.

@beelzenef si y si.
Siempre #debían después de probar muchas distros, ahora bien, es mucho más predictivo y similar a Windows Linux Mint para empezar. Pero no es tan estable, no es tan roca, pero es un buen comienzo.

New ThinkPad is here, and it’s looking sweet!

I’d start installing #Debian right away, but something something work

At least you can see if your distro is similar or not.

Salut, j'aimerai bien afficher dans ma barre des tâches la température de mon pc. Je suis sous debian 12. J'ai déjà le visionneur de capteur installé mais j'aimerai l'avoir affiché quelque part en permanence.

The little #OptiPlex runs really well. It sure packs a punch and is quiet at that.
#Linux for sure runs on everything.

#Debian fun :debian:
