Rocky Linux 9.5 Available Now - Rocky Linux

Rocky Linux is an open enterprise Operating System designed to be 100% bug-for-bug compatible with Enterprise Linux.

I’m a big Linux fan, but I’ve decided to switch to macOS as my main desktop. I’ll of course still keep using Linux in my home lab, though.

I’ve been getting so frustrated with all the weird and annoying problems I keep running into when I try to use Linux on my main computer. It’s not distro-specific, they all have their quirks. I’ve managed to fix most of them, but it’s become a game of whack-a-mole that I’m not willing to continue with.

I am NOT willing to go back to the mess that is Windows.
I’ve voted! Have you?

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Brave is a sketchy company. Forget the fact that their CEO is a homophobic crypto bro; they riddle the browser with ads by default. It’s ironic, don’t you think? I guess everyone also forgot the time when they were injecting affiliate parameters into shopping links.

If you’re going to use a Chromium based browser, just use
@Vivaldi and turn on the ad and tracker protection. Otherwise, use Firefox, which is not difficult to harden.

Reminder: Data doesn't need to be complicated. Customers don't need to be tracked. Websites don't need bloated scripts to get insights. :D

Dear Community, I wanted to share a personal update. I’ve recently transitioned into hospice care and, as a result, will be slowing down the development of this project. While I’m grateful for the ...

Honestly, if you’re in the US, please vote. Don’t let a fascist take control. Don’t think that it can’t possibly happen there. This might be your last chance to vote. Don’t waste it. Sitting it out won’t help your cause but it will definitely endanger a lot of lives. That’s my take on it.

If you're looking to help the Kamala Harris campaign, consider donating or volunteering. I’ve been doing phone banking when I can, and every little bit helps!

As we approach the election, it's crucial to recognize the stakes. Trump embodies fascism in every sense of the word, and choosing to support him—or opting out of voting entirely—puts millions of lives at risk, including those of people you likely know personally.

The election is just around the corner. If you can, please vote early. So much is riding on this! Your voice matters, and it can make a difference for countless others. Let’s stand up for what’s right!

#Vote #Election2024 #KamalaHarris #WeAreNotGoingBack
No matter who wins this election, I can tell you this: I’m gonna remember who said it didn’t matter. I’m gonna remember who said they were both the same.
