Can't update/remove/install on Fedora because of "no disk space" (sh.itjust.works)
Hi everyone!...
Is it possible to use Linux without the command line?
We’ve all heard it before: People claiming Linux isn’t a viable alternative cause you can’t run it without using the command line....

No internet in virtual machine
I have on the host machine two network interfaces. One is lan and the other is a wlan. For libvirt I have created a nat network which is bound to the wlan.

What am I doing wrong (OpenSuse)?
I’ve been trying Tumbleweed for my gaming needs and so far it seems to be working relatively well. My issue is about removed packages. When I first installed TW, I removed quite a few packages I did not want (KSudoku, LibreOffice, and a few others). It has been a little since I’ve turned on my PC but yesterday I noticed that...
Is there a way to add "Run as Sudo" to context menu like with Windows?
I found a (lengthy) guide to doing this but it is for gksu which is gone. I have to imagine there’s an easy way. I am running Ubuntu. There is no specific use case, it is just a feature I miss from windows....
Should I use QEMU/virt-manager or Virtualbox for a Windows virtualized instance?
I use Arch Linux, and some apps require me to use Windows. I have tried to get Wine working, but it’s just too much of a hassle. If the only goal of my virtualization setup is to run something like Adobe apps (I’m not doing any gaming on it), will Virtualbox or virt-manager be the quick and easy choice for me? I have tried...

opensuse and KDE wallet
So I just installed opensuse KDE for the first time and when I was typing password for my WiFi, instead of connecting me, some window appeared asking for creating encrypted wallet. I don’t need that so I turned it off in the system settings, but then my PC always forgets my WiFi pasword after shutdown. So I turned on and...

New to Linux? Ubuntu Isn’t Your Only Option (www.howtogeek.com)
Ubuntu’s popularity often makes it the default choice for new Linux users. But there are tons of other Linux operating systems that deserve your attention. As such, I’ve highlighted some Ubuntu alternatives so you can choose based on your needs and requirements—because conformity is boring.
Stop using gitlab.com for projects - Credit card info required for new registrations
If your IP (and possible your browser) looks “suspicious” or has been used by other users before, you need to add additional information for registration on gitlab.com, which includes your mobile phone number and possibly credit card information. Since it is not possible to contribute or even report issues on open source...

Youtube Depends on Ads to work (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

When your country don't give a sH1t about piracy
