Hmm, our central services are mostly open source based, I think. Hard to measure.

Yes, everyone uses the ActiveDirectory to login, even some Linux users, but most web-based services rely on Open Source. Things like Seafile and OnlyOffice is used more and more. We have BigBlueButton as a working alternative to Zoom. My workflow is completely Linux-based. Many colleagues could switch, too, if they want to.

I expect seeing more of this, Sir!

Is that you, Gowron?

This is good news; Debian is still the way to go for me:

Debian acknowledges that the legal status of material produced by generative AI systems remains the subject of ongoing discussion in many jurisdictions, including questions relating to copyright, authorship, licensing, and potential reproduction of training material. The Project does not seek to resolve these unsettled legal questions through this General Resolution, nor does it adopt a position on whether AI-generated output is, in whole or in part, copyrightable or derived from copyrighted works.

Did you forget about Clonezilla, Fedora Silverblue and their other variants?

My personal S-tier is Debian stable.

I delete older ones as soon I downloaded a new one. I guess, my isos take well below ~15 GB of space. It is only Debian, Fedora and Gentoo afterall.

You are not supposed to use online LLMs for undisclosed security stuff; there is no general ban of online services if you can take responsibility for the stuff it produces for the contributor. At least, this is how I read the general resolution.

This is one more reason, that using Debian as my main distro was a good choice.

wow, if a later version of it can indeed do LoRa/Meshcore, it will be even more interesting to me.

I wonder if it can run a Gnome desktop or phosh with all the stuff still possible available with the default installation.

2. I would treat this as a hypothesis and answer: "Debian"

oof

"My dear doctor"

I have my own office now; never had that; that is why my door is always open when I am inside. My current job is somewhat compatible with being interrupted by requests. The open door helps others to approach me to get help with their IT problem or else.

Only for rare online meetings I close the door.

Looking back at my old hybrid job I am glad to have this new job; no more daily online meetings no matter where I am, in the office or at home. I enjoy my new workplace and going to the office every day, but I guess it helps living very close by (4 minutes by foot).

Yeah, Silverblue is nice; not my main distro, though. I came from many years of Gentoo on almost all machines I had. Debian stable is currently the most practical for me.

The immutable variant of Fedora is nice for the low maintenance computers, although I needed to get my head around podman to not overuse rpm-ostree. So far so good. I think it will not replace the distro on my main machine, but I see the way it works as a general potential future. An immutable variant of Debian stable would be something I'd consider switching for.

Could it look close to gnome-shell? And how well does it integrate with all the xdg-desktop stuff?

I am currently using gdm/gnome/PaperWM because I like the comfort of having all the gnome tooling for everyday use. Can the gnome-control-center still be used with Noctalia?

This week is huge; I am looking forward to test Stamps.

I agree. GUIs should not be seen as replacements for CLIs so that new users switch to Linux. There are an addition to the ecosystem; and when you want to do more with your computer and perhaps more efficiently, new users can learn more about what can be done in the Terminal.

I use 1.5-2x the swap on new installations these days. I want hibernate to always work.

/ are also not valid for ISO-8601

At this point I am afraid to ask: Will it finally have GPG and S/MIME support? Otherwise it is just a nice looking program with no use. (:

I can really recommend Neelix' Cookbook. It even has a recipe for Jambajala...
