Yeah right
That submarine imploding near the Titanic will never be not funny. Especially since the guy who designed it believed in the “move fast and break things” nonsense.
Every person on board paid a pretty penny to be on that sub, so no pity from me either (except perhaps for the teenager who was reportedly terrified to go on, but did it to please his rich prick father).
It used to be BRIC (Brazil, India, China, Russia) or BRICS (same + South Africa). In the article, it has been extended again to other nations, therefore “so-called” because its membership is not the same anymore. Also, the membership seems very informal, it’s just a bunch of countries maintaining ties and having discussions, not a real group of countries, with its own set of rules and institutions.
Go to packages.slackware.com or slackbuilds.org and you will see the base system has reasonably up to date packages.
I have no idea what you are talking about. NetBSD is portable. Its performance is very good (it has to be, since it works on stuff like 68040 Amiga and Atari), but probably a bit under FreeBSD, since FreeBSD is mainly focused on Intel and AMD.
Slackware.
It. Just. Works.
I have used all 3 major BSDs (Free, Open and Net). FreeBSD is ideal for servers due to its performance. OpenBSD is perfect for security appliances and NetBSD is perfect if you have exotic legacy hardware.
This being said, I have also used OpenBSD for about two years as my daily driver on an old second hand laptop, and I really liked it. With a minimum of configuration, installing software was as easy as Debian (just your pkg_add), and configuration is just super easy since the OpenBSD documentation.
It has improved a lot done then: installing security updates (sysupdate) and upgrading (sysupgrade) from one version to the next is amazingly simple. If your hardware is supported, OpenBSD is just a pleasure to use. Its only default is the lack of “advanced” file systems and volume managers.
OwnCloud and Yunohost are the two that comes to mind. I will let you Google them.
How do I configure my Linux, on a laptop, to consume as little battery as possible?
A bit of context: one of my laptop ran Ubuntu, with acceptable battery drain (up to 3h30 of usage, running desktop applications: Firefox, terminal, vim, etc). This is a high-end laptop: 12 AMD Ryzen + AMD Rembrandt.
I switched to open use, and now battery drains in one hour, running the exact same applications. Installed tuned, selected power save, tried power top, applied different parameters, etc, but no result: battery still dies after 1h. No improvement at all.
I am going to investigate on my own, but any help is greatly appreciated.
There is a guy named Arthur David Olson who maintains a small database of all the time zones in the world, including things like leap seconds and such. It’s used by everybody and it is updated several times a year. See here:
If it’s several python modules, then yes, choose a license and then contact pypi and see if you can distribute your modules through them.
One very important thing is that you have to make sure everything is ready for distribution: check your project will work (possibly starting with a blank VM), what its dependencies are, that the requirements.txt file is good and operational, that automated tests are available for people to run after installing, etc.
In other words, the ideal project is not just a question of license but also all the scaffoldings you supply with it.
Thanks for opening your code!
I have Osmand+ and it works fine. One very easy way to improve the performance is to download the maps you need ahead of time.
Start by downloading your metro area and I can guarantee that positioning and navigation will be instantaneous. Unless your phone is to blame. FYI I am using a Google Nexus 7a. Very happy with Osmand+.
We are talking about programming, studying, surfing the web and average computer usage. OpenBSD is more than enough for all that.
OpenBSD.
Period.
Sure, you can harden Linux to the same level of security. But OpenBSD comes with all the goodies installed out of the box.
Liferea does the job and worries pretty well.
Please keep in mind I haven’t done any work on either for a few years now. I would definitely check if something is possible today… But with little hope. AWS support should be able to give you more infos on this connection (or lack thereof).
Worked on both AWS and GovCloud for a while, and there was NO communication between the two at the time.
GovCloud was its own thing, completely separate from regular AWS.
SDF does not seem to agree NDAs with Meta is a good thing. “They” have said as much in a recent post:
I would say, like many others, Remmina.
Putty also has a Linux version, so you can use that as well. Its session management is a bit clunky, but it works and it offers some fairly good functionalities.
But ssh is first and foremost a command line tool. As others have said, invest some time to learn its commands and configuration files.
