Could you give us your opinions on what you would change about bash if you could go back in time and just decide how it was?
Iirc, you can deselect road surfaces in the settings somewhere so the app doesn't ask about it?
It's not really a proper guide, like, it doesn't make sense anatomically. Upper and lower "sixpack" muscles aren't different muscles, the squareness of them is just fascia on top holding things together. I don't know what definition of "core" they have here, it also makes no sense. If you want to exercise, good, but find a better guide.
The Acme editor (and Sam) begs to differ. Sadly it's hard to find a mouse that can do mouse chording today.
What about the proposal to just drop the name openSUSE with no replacement? And let each distro just be called Tumbleweed, Leap, Aeon, etc.
That's interesting! Difficult to test, but in theory that should work. Unless they have a countermeasure for that.
It seems likely that the person who told OP meant it in the misused way, which makes the intent to intimidate clear.
Is there any way to harden Android devices as they are? Will another OS support full disk encryption?
Fedora/Redhat is a good example. It could be argued that the Linux distro scene was different 23 years ago, making it harder to be seen today.
The thing I'm pondering is what the openSUSE community actually is. Does it exist as a group, or is it separate projects, each doing their own thing... for who? What is the overlap between people in the various distros, overlap in technology used in packaging and QA etc? Is it meaningful to talk about openSUSE as a distinct community separate from SUSE?
I'm not sure. A few years ago I remember that OpenBSD expected ASCII for files, but I think Linux expects utf-8. I could be wrong though.
Unicode in filenames can be a bad idea, since there are more than one way to achieve what looks like the same character. So matching patterns could fail if you think it's one way, but it's actually another representation in unicode.
He/she probably meant hand, not font. Most people don't know the terminology regarding letterforms.
When I hear openSUSE, I think of german engineering and resources from SUSE, with a history of innovating great infrastructure.
With a new name, distanced from the SUSE part, I'll probably feel more like if this is yet another random derivative created by a small group who might soon lose interest.
So, part of this is (I'm thinking) that supporting the companies selling Linux phones would be a good thing. Expanding the market, funding research and prototypes for future products, etc. Is there a user consensus of which companies/phones would be the best bet for this? I've read a lot of conflicting reviews. Or, which are popular phone models people use?
This is what I don't understand, how will the EU enforce Chat Control when we can use software that doesn't implement backdoors? Maybe the EU will be happy to get the majority of messages from the mainstream proprietary apps, but what if they want to get the rest too? I'm worried that this will lead to very bad places. Could they ban F-Droid? Will I end up on a list if I use unauthorized software? Who knows.
If Chat Control becomes reality...
... what should we do? I guess it all depends on how it would be implemented, which is something I have a hard time imagining at this moment. How do you imagine day to day online life in a post-Chat Control EU world? Which ways of communicating would still be private? Is there anything we can do at this point to prepare for the worst outcome?
Badness 10000 usually indicates that something is very wrong. Usually overfull hboxes. If the text is spaced out to the point where it immediately looks bad, that could still be like badness 5000. What I have seen mostly is macros not playing well with other macros, and in LaTeX there's a lot of macros under the hood, so it's very hard to troubleshoot.
Hej PiratPartiet! Tack för länkarna. Jag måste erkänna att jag inte hållt mig uppdaterad sedan FRA-tiden.

Developing on Aeon with Distrobox
A video from openSUSE Conference 2024 about using distrobox on openSUSE Aeon.
Pi Pico and ESP32
I've been trying to navigate the differences and limitations in practice between the Arduino Nano ESP32 and Raspberry Pi Pico, and I'm at a point where I just want to get one of them and start experimenting. Possibly some other brand ESP32. My goal is to learn micropython and hopefully make some simple projects. My question is: is there a big difference for a beginner which I get in terms of online resources and ease of use, any pitfalls to be aware of or useful tips?
Strange double line due to misaligned mirror
Turns out a misaligned mirror made the laser hit the lens in a weird way, and then bouncing off something on the way out to produce this double line. Probably. What kind of strange troubleshooting have you done and what was the reason/fix?
About the bear...
So, I'm just assuming we've all seen the discussions about the bear. Personally I feel that this is an opportunity for everyone to stop and think a little about it. The knee-jerk reaction from many men seems to be something along the lines of "You would choose a dangerous animal over me? That makes me feel bad about myself." which results in endless comments of the "Akchully... according to Bayes theorem you are much more likely to..." kind. It should be clear by now that it doesn't lead to good places. Maybe, and I'm open to being wrong, but maybe the real message is women saying: "We are scared of unknown men." Then, if that is the message intended, what do we do next? Maybe the best thing is just to listen. To ask questions. What have you experienced to make you feel that way? I firmly believe that the empathy we give lays a foundation for other people being willing to have empathy for the things we try to communicate. It doesn't mean we should feel bad about ourselves, but just to recognize that someone is trying to say something, and it's not a technical discussion about bears. What do you think?
Andreas Tille becomes the new DPL
Congratulations to Andreas! It seems like he has lots of ideas for how to improve things in packaging, and for communicating with other distros. Debian is a big ship to steer, and I personally hope the leader can facilitate people working together to reach our goals.
What could your distro learn from another distro?
For example, I'm using Debian, and I think we could learn a thing or two from Mint about how to make it "friendlier" for new users. I often see Mint recommended to new users, but rarely Debian, which has a goal to be "the universal operating system". I also think we could learn website design from.. looks at notes ..everyone else.

OpenBSD 7.5 is released?
The download page leads to install75.img, but the front page still says 7.4.
Oxytocin
I made this during a time I felt very lonely. Now I don't feel lonely anymore, I feel great (for reasons unrelated to crafting, but still).
Escaping % in \directlua
Took me longer than I'd like to admit to realize that \directlua is first expanded before it goes into the lua interpreter, and that \% is defined through \chardef (in plain), which means that it's not expandable.
Luckily LuaTeX has the \csstring primitive.
Is anyone else doing any fun things with \directlua?
Licenception?
I was thinking about copyright and licenses today. If I understand correctly, if you create a work you automatically have copyright of that work. Someone created, say, the Zero-clause BSD license, which ought to mean that that person has copyright for the actual license text. Does that mean that we are not allowed to copy the license text without the license authors approval? The license refers to other works, but not itself. It would need to reference itself, or create some kind of infinite regress turtles all the way down kind of situation?
Cross-stitch and GPL
Hypothetically, if one cross-stitched a version of a picture that's licenced under the GPL, is this considered a "derivative work", and, what would be the practicalities of including the source and the license itself for redistributing? I mean the actual physical cross-stitched item. Has anyone done this before?
The future of Linux
I'm not proposing anything here, I'm curious what you all think of the future.
What is your vision for what you want Linux to be?
I often read about wanting a smooth desktop experience like on MacOS, or having all the hardware and applications supported like Windows, or the convenience of Google products (mail, cloud storage, docs), etc.
A few years ago people were talking about convergence of phone/desktop, i.e. you plug your phone into a big screen and keyboard and it's now your desktop computer. That's one vision. ChromeOS has its "everything is in the cloud" vision. Stallman has his vision where no matter what it is, the most important part is that it's free software.
If you could decide the future of personal computing, what would it be?
Unhibernate times after ZZZ
How long does it usually take for you to unhibernate after a ZZZ?
I timed my laptop where it stops at the "unhibernating @ block xxxxxx length xxxMB", and these are my times:
length 65MB: 1m 47s length 285MB: 3m 29s
Are these normal times?
Setting vm.swapencrypt.enable=0 makes no difference, and according to dmesg "acpi0: sleep states S0 S3 S4 S5".
