#Ubuntu 26.04 was released and all its derivatives as well. My Linux torrent seedbox is running at maximum speed, I downloaded all ISOs from the CDN to bootstrap all the torrents that are way too slow because there was a single source only. #torrent #linux

Would you recommend a password manager at all for people that are not really familiar with computers or smartphones? I was thinking at pushing Bitwarden (because I have a vaultwarden instance), but this might be too complicated... Any experience?

https://openports.pl is back online  

There was a weird issue on the system, upgrades stopped working automatically due to a lot of .core files that filled the disk

Then, once I fixed this, there was a discrepancy between system perl and packages perl, I tried to rebuild things locally but gave up 😅

and it didn't repair itself with auto upgrades as I removed a package during my attempt at fixing by creating the packages locally

I had the chance to ride a gen2 Hayabusa yesterday 🚀

The riding position was incredible, and it was surprisingly comfortable!  

It was not a recent one, it had 78000 km and it looked brand new   it sounded nice with its 2 akrapović exhausts. I've been very cautious riding this by the way!

I want one now, it was so comfortable and fun
