On my agenda today:
- set up my #RaspberryPi5 / install #Linux (Ubuntu MATE most likely)
- permanently delete my inactive 3 bird app accounts
- draft a new post for #TheFutureIsFederated about data sovereignty and my plans for the next 4 years
- finish reading #NeilPostman’s superb “Building a Bridge to the 18th century”
- chin up, be defiant and resist

ICYMI: this is the latest #blog I wrote on my personal site: “The rebellion will be federated” https://elenarossini.com/2024/11/the-rebellion-will-be-federated/

For the next 24 hours, I will donate 1 flash drive to flash drives for freedom, an organization that smuggles outside information into North Korea for every follower I get, up to 400 followers. (I’m not rich and that’s about what I can fit into my budget)

Slackware is a Linux distribution created by Patrick Volkerding in Jul 1993. It is the oldest distro still in existence. However, someone was dissatisfied with Slackware and created another distro a month later, in August 1993. This was Debian, the second oldest distro, founded by Ian Murdock. Both of these distros are still maintained, and Debian is often known as the "mother distro" because it has spawned many more distributions. #Linux #OpenSource #history


A Christmas Strike

Instead of giving unnecessary gifts this year, we give loved ones home-made Christmas cards:

“This year, I’m giving you a gift of democracy. This card represents a purchase not made, money that #billionaires cannot use against civilisation. I hope this is a gift that you shall be able to use in the future.”

or donate on their behalf to #opensource & #linux projects — things we actually need.

#Linux and #Windows users with experience with #VirtualMachines, I need help. I've tried to install #ArchLinux 3 times now. The first time, I got a permission denied error because I chose the loopback device, not the #VMWare one. The second and third time, I did everything right but got an error saying the device path was not set. Does anyone know what might cause this?

Wrote a little post about why I am not writing about Linux anymore, or at least why it s hard for me to do it.

I am not tired of Linux, but simple fallen into the background. Will not stopping posting about it here (not just because of the Foss part) if I find interesting or useful stuff.

You know what I like about #Linux?

You use it, it sits in the background, and you forget it's there without all the whinging and pop ups and forced-something-or-other you get from other brands of operating systems.


I like to know whether linux can still be branded free software by banning participation from people of specific ethnicity/nationality/geography?

Free to drink beer but not free to brewing it if you are a "xxyyzz" person?

1st they came for the Jews, then they came for the commies, then they came for the gypsies, but I was still drinking FREE beer.

When on the internet, all I want to do is read text, see images, and watch videos. That tech existed 20 years ago. All commercial #webdevelopment since then has intentionally had the goal of making that harder. It has accomplished little else other than providing the ability to order things.

#Capitalism did not create the internet (c.f. ARPANET) and it is seemingly incapable of improving it. I'm not sure how it got to be in charge.

Why is Ubuntu used so much in the scientific field?
https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/19cb7nh/why_is_ubuntu_used_so_much_in_the_scientific_field/
Spoiler: Cause I have to say... there's zero reasons to use windows on science, industry, technology, production, military... or any other field that takes it serious.

Trying to debug stuttering/freezing on #popos #linux

Can someone confirm that all #dmesg output is available in #journalctl ?

Are there any other logs I should be looking at, and if yes how?


When buying a printer it used to be important to check that it works with well with a GNU/Linux system. According to https://wiki.debian.org/SystemPrinting , printers made after 2014 mostly work without problems.

What about printer/scanner devices? It appears they mostly work fine, according to https://wiki.debian.org/CUPSQuickPrintQueues#mfd

Does anyone have experience, good or bad, with setting up printer/scanners on GNU/Linux, especially #Debian?

#Lifehack: buy Linux-compatible equipment, even if you are not running #linux, because

1. The device adheres to open standards without tricks or drivers. It is portable. This is the gold standard for plug-and-play.

2. If a driver is conceptually necessary, see if a linux version exists. If yes,
it means that someone loved the device enough to do the work for free.

Follow the love, my friend.

Any suggestion?

one office computer keeps freezing when it runs out of memory. it starts to swap and it becomes unresponsive. i suspect that swap file is much smaller then ram size. there's no other way than to hard reset.

what are steps to make sure this doesn't happen ever again?
