[Noob] Is it worth getting a LTS kernel?
I’ve heard LTS kernels offer more stability, but lack the latest features. How likely is my system to break with the standard kernel?
Using passkeys on Linux & Android
Passkeys seem like a great idea, and we are at a point where, although things are still very much in flux, software passkeys managed by password managers are starting to be usable. I thought I’d share the workflow that’s working for me on Linux with some sites, and ask the community for more tips & tricks....

I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....

Why is folder sharing between host and guest in KVM so hard?
I’m having the hardest tine setting up a shared folder between a Linux host and Win11guest. I want to get rid of dual boot, but there are a few programs that I use which are Win only. I have set up a VB VM, but I want a fine tuned KVM VM. On VB sharing is trivial, but I can’t get it to work in KVM. I have the host sharing...

How to make it so frequently used sites don't constantly require 2FA? [SOLVED]
EDIT: After reading all the responses, I’ve decided to allow cookies to persist after they close the browser, which I expect will make it so that 2FA doesn’t kick in as often, at least not on their most frequently used web sites. I may also look into privacy oriented browser extensions that might offer some protection, such...

Repairing bad sectors in an external drive
So I have this external 2.5" drive salvaged from an old laptop of mine. I was trying to use it to backup/store data but the transfer to the drive fails repeatedly at the ~290GB mark leading me to believe that maybe there is a bad sector on the drive. I tried to inspect the drive using smartmontools and smartctl but since it is...
Matrix effect in terminal with FOSS icons (lemm.ee)
Hi, I was playing with rusty-rain when I decided that it was a good idea to make a custom FOSS effect. For this I made a change in “sibling” project ezemoji PR and with a small local change in rusty-rain I got it. All icons are from Nerd Fonts, so if you know of some FOSS icon is missing let me know to add it in the PR, =).
