Earlier this year, I built a new PC and it’s running Ubuntu. I’ve been installing various apps and configuring them since then. Now, I realize I don’t have any way of knowing what I would want to reinstall, if I (for instance) lost this drive somehow....

I personally always have one USB stick with me that has a live usb boot of Fedoraon it, but I just saw the new video from Linus tech tips and thought about extending it a bit....

I have seen lots of talk about tuxedo and system 76. But not any about think penguin brand. Are they any good?

I decided to yay resolve-davinci but it takes a WHOLE DAY to build(Building CXX object). Why? I have Ryzen 7 1700x and its usage is only up to 25%

I know there was some project about this but haven’t heard of anything for a while. Ewaste is such a crime; all of my devices are used or older purchases that are past their “cool by” date. I have an iPad 2 and iPad mini that function perfectly but aren’t supported by apple anymore. Would love to get a second life for...

I’m trying to run Windows 10 on a virtual machine, but every ISO I launch shows me a blue screen with an error: system thread exception not handled...

Hi everyone 🙂...

If they are going to compile Coreboot for every motherboard they use, does this mean we could run Coreboot on newer hardware too? Are their efforts FOSS?...

Long time nnn user right now. But interested in hearing some other people suggestions in case I missed something more interesting.

For my Thinkpad x200s with:...

Is there an actual graphics processing system inside the dock? For docks with two or three HDMI outputs, shouldn’t reviews be focusing on the performance of the internal GPU system? Because it’s something I’ve not noticed in reviews if that’s the case.

My set-up of Linux Mint and GRUB seems to have messed up my Windows drive, as now I can’t boot from it directly anymore, but only by going through GRUB first, and I want to uninstall Linux. How would I go about figuring out the issue and fixing it?...

Look, we know System76 laptops are based as fuck. I mean, Coreboot, Open source firmware, PopOS, and a fucking open source mobo in the works, just so fucking based....

Asking about why the kernel needs to support secure boot on an individual system where I am not concerned about the hole punched by the nvidia kernel module. I’m concerned about the proprietary boot loader firmware that will never be maintained well. I’m not asking if it is a good idea in general or for most people....

So, basically I’d like to replace the /home with different hard drives. I have a 4tb one that I’m using for videos, a 1tb I’m using for audio files and video games (not the actual game installed there but for example executables or ROMs), and a 500gb I’m using for texts and images. My idea would be to not have the...

Like, to make folders/categories/collections of them so you can collapse groups in the sidebar?

I’m specifically looking for something that can both add text and works well with a stylus + tablet (specifically a surface pro). The best I’ve been able to find is Okular, but it’s been very finicky for me, especially while editing text. Is there anything better, or does what I’m looking for just not exist yet?

I was curious why CERN and Fermilab chose AlmaLinux instead of Rocky Linux. After googling, I found out that the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation, which controls Rocky Linux, is a public-benefit corporation. This is a for-profit type of corporation, unlike what the name suggests. The AlmaLinux OS Foundation is a 501(c)(6)...

If I have Linux installed on an SSD and I plug it into a Windows computer (a PC which I did not use to install linux onto the SSD), would I be able to use linux in that PC from the SSD?

Currently running Kali on my laptop as that’s all it was used for. Looking for something more general purpose. Mainly steam for light gaming and being able to install the tools from Kali for stuff like tryhackme. Mostly familiar with Debian, as that’s what Kali is based on, but willing to try something else. Laptop is this...

Here is my list:...

I have been looking at Fairphone and Volla, and it feels like the Smartphone scene for Linux is going very strong right now....
