I heard someone did on a toothbrush.

I’m usually not a ranting person. But it does happen from time to time. 😉

So this is a “don’t move my cheese” post?

I understand the need the vent from time to time, but most people have/create blogs for such things. Maybe it’s just time to look for another xmpp client.

You also need to make sure all the dependencies are installed. Those are usually listed in a requirements.txt file and can be installed with pip.

Before doing so, though, I wanted to ask if there was any formal policy or rule for the community that could help cut down on thr spam, and if so, what would be most useful for me to do when I see a spam post? That I’d, is the Report button the right tool, is there some other way to let moderators know?

Rule 7 as stated in the sidebar of this community: “No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.”

So yes. Use the report tool and downvote it to oblivion.

Seems like it’s part of the 6.6.0 release. Arch has it in testing at version 6.6.0 at least.

Make sure the fan is not full of dust. Clean it out if it is. Most systems shutdown/reboot if it gets overheated.

Nonsense, MS has an Intune client for Linux.

I know, I have used it. But it does not enforce any policies. Just tells you if you are compliant or not.

Too bad. Skill issue. They need to learn how to manage Linux just like any other new tech.

And that’s my point. They could do it. Some do. But most companies, in my country at least, pick the easy solution, which is to not support Linux.

I think the problem with Linux in the workplace is that it’s hard (read harder than Windows and MacOS) to setup to be managed devices. Especially if the company is a Microsoft shop to begin with. The IT security teams just don’t know how to enforce the company policies on Linux machines. Enforce password policy, network credentials and managed apps. It easy with Intune for Windows and Mac. Much harder on Linux.

That’s the reason I was given by my work place, when I was “forced” to switch from Linux to Windows.

There is also Nextcloud Talk, but it can be a bit overwhelming to set up (needs the high-performance backend for video and stuff). But, it’s entirely self-hosted and has no user cap as far as I am aware.

I’d check with other USB ports then. If the receiver is not even detected, it’s often a defective USB port.

What DE you like is very much dependant on your work flow and how well you can adjust to changes.

Personally, I love KDE Plasma. It’s the right amount of “bling”, bells, whistles, aestetic and settings for me. Gnome feels way to “simple” and XFCE feels reliable but old.

For me, the DE is often more important than the base underneath, but I do like my rolling release. :)

I’m probably in the 5-6 area. Maybe a toe into 7.

I don’t have access to my server right now, but it’s around 20 containers on my little N100 box.

Nice documentation. Thanks for taking such well written notes. Starred.

As a Dane, this has been frightening for years. I hope our government thinks of open source solutions, instead of just a european company over a US one.

Sure, but presenting DE choice inside the install will confuse the mythical new user.

But I agree with you. A lot of download bandwidth and hosting storage could be saved by doing what Cachy/Endeavour ISO’s are doing.

Ho much does the screenshot you posted say, that the screenshots on the Mint download page does not? Other than giving you more options, which can overwhelm new people.

Some distro’s really like doing their curated live environment for each environment, so you can test it out before actually installing it.

Sounds like you want something like X11 forwarding. I have never used it, but I believe it is proper remote desktop, not sharing.
