linux

I’ve tried using it over the years but I never liked it because there was no information. So last night I looked at my local city and there is almost no information at all. I spent a few hours last night adding buildings and restaurants and removing incorrect items. It was actually kind of fun and therapeutic and I plan to do...

Why? I don’t know, maybe someone here will like it.

A lot of debate today about “community” vs “corporate”-driven distributions. I (think I) understand the basic difference between the two, but what confuses me is when I read, for example:...

Hi all,...

I have an old Subnotebook (at least 10 years old I think) which runs Windows 7 atm. I would like to run Linux on it. I‘m a Linux noob, but would like to try and learn a few things. Any recommendations?

Hi, I am currently working on project that I’m calling Installies. It is a tool for Linux that makes it easy to find and use bash scripts to install, remove, update, or compile apps. You can add specific scripts for different distros or architectures....

In the past, several SSD manufacturers had bugs in their firmwares. So to be sure that I can fix such issues with a newly bought SSD, I need some secure (and somewhat easy) way of updating the firmware....

I have never considered myself to be tech-savvy. However, there is a running gag in my immediate family where I claim to be terrible with computers (eg. “I dont think i could find that, my google-fu is weak”) which my family responds to by reminding me of that one time I did that one cool thing (eg. reminding me about I...

Hey all, I had a frozen screen during the latest update and am left with a kernel panic on boot, so I want to restore my system from an external hdd using a live usb system. I tried that using timeshift and following this guide ostechnix.com/how-to-backup-and-restore-linux-sys… and now it seems I only have an empty /boot...

I am about to go to college for engineering and they require a Windows laptop because of the software we will be using (mostly solidworks I’m pretty sure) doesn’t work on other operating systems. I primarily use windows day-to-day for gaming and such anyways so it’s not a problem for me but I’m wondering if anyone had...

It was working fine until yesterday, now I’m getting this error. I made it’s installed and configured correctly, clang is also installed, made sure....

I’m currently using a VM to run Visual Studio on Fedora. Because I want easy access to both systems at once, without having to minimise a VM or use hotkeys to access the host system, I require a VM solution that has “seamless” integration - I.E hiding the virtual desktop, and running applications in the VM as though they...

Hey everyone,...

Hey,...

I usually try to stay out of the whole snap vs flatpak discussion. Although I am just really confused as to why flatpak just does not seem to care about usability. You’re trying to create a universal packaging format I would think the point of it is that a user can just install an app and after reviewing permissions it should...

We’re happy to announce the release of BusKill v0.7.0!...
