My desktop is KDE Plasma, but I also like to use GNOME apps.

I find funny how this weird mix of Qt+GTK4 happens to be exactly like the weird mix of Win32+UWP on Windows.

        I was inspired by @FineFindus and @hbons to post a bit more on what I'm working on, so here goes!!

        I have been working on [Peachy](gitlab.gnome.org/vixalien/peac), a small framework to write GNOME/Linux applications with GTK and React (yes!).

        For dogfooding, I've been prototyping a little Hacker News client, since they have a nice and free API with a small scope.

        Through the way, I've been adding features to Peachy such as supporting List/Grid views, polyfills etc

        A window showing a Hacker News client, showing Top, New, Show, Ask and Jobs feeds. There's also a list of stories and a story view, showing a story with various comments nested

          A friend of mine who switch to back in march 2025 and started with as distribution on my recommendation, asked my opinion on
          I was perfectly honest that I in general like the distro, it just insist on things I don't like. Like none vanilla and so on.
          He said he was thinking about giving it a spin due to a lot of the resources online was available for only Ubuntu.
          I, honestly, encourage him to go for it. I don't want to be a distro gatekeeper.

              When you visit archlinux32.org/ and it gets blocked due to stupid laws. They blocked visitors from Brazil and California.

              Soon, pretty much all you will get this message on many such Linux and open source projects.

              You get "Access Restricted" message on Arch Linux 32 which read as follows:

Direct access to archlinux32.org has been suspended for your region.

Due to legislative changes - specifically Brazil Law No. 15.211/2025 (ECA Digital) and California AB 1043 - the project cannot provide services in certain jurisdictions. It notes that as a community run Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) project, they lack the legal and financial resources to implement the mandated "auditable age assurance" and "identity verification" mechanisms. To avoid catastrophic fines that could close the project globally, they have implemented a regional block.

                        By Linux friendly I mean that I would be able to reliably extract the footage. I don't want or need any specific software that comes with the product.

                              Today I almost lost 2 years of shell history. I don't know what happened, but only the first 54 thousand lines were kept and the rest of the shell history disappeared.

                              I learned two things:

                              1. Having backups is damn important
                              2. You set a file attribute to only allow appending! No more breakages and sudden corruptions of the history files!

                                  It saddenss me that people jump to implement infrastructure to support age verification in central parts of the Linux system.

                                  It is just a field, they say.

                                  Yes, but the field and the timing clearly points to a political agenda. The developers pushing these changed are either supporting this agenda or cowards.

                                  Not sure what is worse.

                                  But no matter you stand-point, be aware: This is political!

                                              I just boosted a question, but I have a slightly reworded question. Why is Linux and FOSS tripping over themselves to comply with Fascism surveillance capitalism instead of the international and national accessibility laws and accessibility guidelines and disability inclusion guidelines? Surely, one thing is better than the other, no? And it ain't Fascism surveillance capitalism that's the better option.

                                                          @QubesOS is now graciously funding further development of Wyng, with the expressed goal of eventually integrating fast & secure Wyng backups into Qubes OS. This next stage of Wyng development will focus on a raft of features from the v0.9 roadmap that enhance convenience and user-friendliness, such as resuming interrupted backup sessions and direct cloud storage support.

                                                          Many thanks to the Qubes OS team for recognizing the advantages Wyng brings and for their support!

                                                              I've got a weird annoyance on one of my laptops, and maybe someone knows something I don't... (details continue in self replies)
                                                              When I shut the lid, the laptop goes to sleep. Sometimes, when I open it, and it wakes up, the keyboard doesn't work at all. I can fix this by closing the lid, letting it sleep again, and then opening it. Usually that works on the first reopen, occasionally it takes 2 or 3, and on very rare occasion, I have to force restart or ssh in and reboot.

                                                                1) Quedó oficialmente aprobado por el equipo de -mirrors, un mirror completo de Debian GNU/Linux en los servidores de Undernet Uruguay :debian:

                                                                -> Debian: mirror.undernet.uy/debian/

                                                                -> Debian archive: mirror.undernet.uy/debian-arch

                                                                -> Debian ISO-CDs: mirror.undernet.uy/debian-cd/

                                                                El listado de mirrors de Debian actualmente muestran un solo mirror (mantenido por la gente de CURE Rocha desde hace años) y recientemente también se registró junto con el nuestro, otro mirror de interior.edu.uy (que en realidad venía funcionando hace un tiempo ya). Nuestro mirror junto con los otros ya está listado en la página de status de mirrors de Debian:

                                                                -> mirror-master.debian.org/statu

                                                                Por lo que pronto habrán 3 mirrors en Uruguay de las cuales el nuestro será el único sostenido por una comunidad autónoma y autogestionada. No solo eso, también nuestro mirror incluye todas las versiones archive de Debian y las históricas primeras, anteriores a Debian 3. También el mirror incluye las ISO-CD netinstall y businesscard ISOs para poder descargar, crear buteables y luego instalar usando el mirror. Tener un mirror local nos dá soberanía, nos independiza un poco más y hace que el tráfico sea local.
                                                                Sostener un mirror es un compromiso a largo plazo y requiere recursos que estamos dispuestos a poner a disposición como los que se ponen para otros proyectos importantes que llevamos adelante en nuestra pequeña red. Finalmente quiero destacar que los otros 2 mirrors uruguayos son de instituciones públicas y en particular, la Universidad de la República (cure.edu.uy e interior.edu.uy) lo que muestra que importante que es un mirror de Debian. Lo unico que no está mirroreado es el repo debian-security, que eso no se mirroréa.

                                                                  Santiago :arandela: »

                                                                  Pronto estará listado en mirrors.slackware.com/mirrorli
                                                                  El proceso de actualización de la lista de mirrors de Slackware es mucho más lenta que las otras por lo que puede pasar un buen tiempo antes de que aparezca ahi, pero este fue el primer mirror que levantamos y está funcionando hace casi un mes.

                                                                  El mirror incluye todas las versiones históricas y actuales de Slackware así como también las Slackbuilds que son scripts de compilación de paquetes de la comunidad. El mirror es solo de las slackbuilds, no la página Slackbuilds, pero se puede configurar el sbopkg para que utilice este mirror.

                                                                  Los diferentes mirrors pueden accederse desde nuestra página:

                                                                  Los mirrors estan dispenibles por FTP, HTTP, HTTPS y RSYNC.

                                                                  Si alguien quiere utilizar estos mirrors, probarlos, ser de los primeros en dar feedback, puede escribirme y por mensaje les puedo decir como modificar las fuentes de software en sus Debian/Linuxmint/Slackware.

                                                                  Les recordamos que este servidor se sostiene con la colaboración de todos y todas así que si les interesa el proyecto y quieren apoyarlo, pueden colaborar económicamente de cualquiera de las formas disponibles en mastodon.uy/about Finalmente agracecer públicamente a @francisco1892 miembro de la comunidad que colaboró en este proceso.

Dazu lasse ich die Blockliste "All" von blocklist.de in Fail2ban einlesen. Sobald eine IP aus dieser Liste versucht auf den Server zuzugreifen, wird diese gesperrt. Habe mit dem Test vor ca. 24h auf meinem Testserver begonnen. Aktuell sind über 21500 IPs gesperrt. 😳

Ich arbeite allerdings auch viel im Web und bin daher nicht auf Windows-Programme angewiesen. Was ich an Linux gefällt, sind die kleinen Helferlein wie Iotas und Errands (Nextcloud-Anbindung).

No para utilizarlo, que no me interesa meterme en la jaula de oro de Apple, pero sí como concepto. Usaron el procesador de un iPhone, lograron un muy buen rendimiento, con toda la eficiencia energética propia de la arquitectura de ARM y a un precio contenido. Lamentablemente, si buscamos opciones similares con GNU/Linux no existen, los SoCs potentes con ARM son cerrados y por más que la comunidad ha hecho varios intentos aún no hay nada realmente funcional. Hay varios intentos de portar Ubuntu a laptops con Snapdragon, las Pinebook con hardware más modesto, y algunos proyectos más artesanales usando Raspberry Pi, pero no encontré nada como el Macbook Neo. ¿Por acá alguien tiene experiencia con alguna laptop ARM?
