Bluefin is essentially Aurora with Gnome, and Bazzite has a Gnome version, so if that’s more your cup of tea, it’s out there!

It almost certainly will grind a lot of governance to a halt as every little minute regulatory effort is litigated to death by corporate plaintiffs, while the Conservative courts slow-walk their proceedings.
Government will still function, but at a snail’s pace, which I’m sure is the entire point: grind it to a halt when non-Conservatives have control and open the floodgates when Conservatives are in power.
The former chief was booked on 10 counts of child endangerment and known criminal negligence, according to an official at the Uvalde County Jail.
Depends on what the statutes cover. For example, you can be charged with “Serious Bodily Injury to a Minor” by way of direct action or failure to act to try to prevent the injury. It’s broad and open to interpretation for a reason, and that’s where juries come in.
I imagine they’ll use that particular legal precedent you mentioned as part of their defense strategy, though. It’s almost like a loophole, except it’s literally just a gaping hole in police oversight.
Tried Aurora in a VM, and while it ran like shit (probably a VM issue, not Aurora’s), I was shocked that it reported updates, and by the next boot, it had already updated everything.
I run Bazzite on a laptop, so they’re similar, but Aurora really felt clean, polished, and ready for general use.
Could be. Unfortunately, the folks who found this don’t really go into enough detail about the attack’s initial entry point.
Too late, in my case. Already got Bazzite running full time on a laptop! rpm-ostree
and package layering are definitely a different way to think about things, but it’s nice having a system that’s kind of unbreakable.
I agree, though, that jumping into immutable distros shouldn’t be a glib decision for newcomers, though Aurora might be a good option for anyone that just wants to set it and forget it.
There have been major strides to make first time setups stupid-proof in a lot of distros, to the point that I think we’re seeing the beginnings of a demographic shift.
And like in your dad’s case, sometimes browsing the internet, getting on Zoom, and printing some files are all people really want.
PopOS is one I’m going to be looking at today, along with Aurora!
I mentioned to someone else that I practiced installing Arch in a VM, and while I got everything working, it wasn’t what I would consider a fun experience (and I’m not implying that nobody would find it fun). Just a level of system admin I’m not that interested in taking up. 😅
But that’s good advice to just take the plunge. Most of my important info is already backed up, so making sure my WFH software stack is ready is probably the final significant hurdle.
There is no “border crisis.” Operation Lone Star is 100% political theater designed to make gullible Texans think their tax dollars are being used responsibly, with the end goal of winning political points for the November election.
I guarantee that after November, we won’t hear a squeak about the border until it’s time to distract from some other effort by the GOP to fuck the environment, privatize everything, and/or strip non-white, non-male, non-Christian people’s rights away.
Best info I could find is from a previous blog post two links beyond the original article. “This updated version of malware delivered via JavaScript comes in archive files as attachments in emails.”
So, don’t open any weird attachments…? That’s what I’m getting from it.
TBH, it would be really funny and poetic to coopt the phrase “drill baby, drill” to mean something completely different. I hope the Internet makes that happen.
Good. End-stage-capitalism isn’t working for most people, and it’s time these polluters pay what they owe humanity.
If that means they’re sued into bankruptcy, well, then they should have better estimated the “cost of doing business,” hadn’t they have?
Ah, backups. That’s on my list of things to check. It would be terribly inconvenient to have to manually pull up a web interface just to do backups.
I like the way you think.
I’ll have to give Ventoy another try, since they just had some updates. I had originally tried booting it on a spare laptop (multiple times), but it would never boot, as if the MBR was broken.
That particular Edimax dongle I mentioned was sold as an 802.11ac option for Raspberry Pi’s. I didn’t know at the time that it was a unique case, so even the best of intentions can still sometimes wind up biting you. I would have bought something else, had I known!
At least you can find the package module in most community repositories, now.
Weird. I would be interested to know what actually happened, but I am not smart enough to troubleshoot hardware to that degree! At least you found something that works.
TBH, Red Hat focusing their attention on business isn’t that problematic for me. RHEL is specifically for businesses, and Red Hat needs to make money to keep operating. Kind of a necessary evil, if you could consider that evil. However, I completely understand why the capitalist realm makes average people squirm.
But that said, I usually prefer community projects myself (Fedora spins included), since they tend to have modified setups that are more in line with what regular users would want or need.
Practice in a VM and see for yourself! I did that, set everything up, and ultimately decided it was more system admin detail than I wanted to take on. But as far as ease goes, it’s not especially hard, there’s just not much in the way of hand-holding or preset configs, and you’ll likely find there’s a lot of preinstalled drivers and things you take for granted.
