Happy Birthday #LinuxCafé #Graz im Juli! Wir sehen uns in einer Woche am 21. Juli ab 17:00 Uhr!

Ende September sind wir nach Rostock geradelt und kurz nach dem Start auf diese Info gestoßen und ich dachte, vielleicht hilft sie auch im Fediverse.
Am 13.11. ist #Linux presentation day in der Stadtbücherei Schwentinental
Back on the Valheim grind! Running smoothly on Linux, which means I can't even blame the operating system when a Greydwarf brutally snipes me from behind a bush. Live now: #linuxgaming
Glabels is pretty awesome! Been struggling with some old Word templates someone made ages ago. Went looking for some proper label software and found #linux

Today I randomly visited a Linux install party in French-speaking 🇨🇭 Switzerland. I was warmly welcomed and we kept talking for hours after the event was over.
It's amazimg how Linux and free software keeps uniting people across borders and languages.

Erinnerung: Gestern war ein guter Tag, #Linux durch was Besseres zu ersetzen. Aber heute geht es auch noch.
This coming November, I'll be holding my second GNU/Linux installation workshop. I'll probably choose Linux Mint with XFCE or LXDE. I think those are the ones that are least disruptive to the Windows mindset.
Little by little, we're showing that GNU/Linux stopped being just for nerds a long time ago.

Nyt legetŸj i huset!
Og det er faktisk seriŸst arbejde der udfŸres med den :)
Jeg har fået fat i en 27" iMac fra 2015 til billig penge.
En lille ekstra udgift kom der til, da jeg skulle kŸbe et kit til at åbne maskinen (skærmen er limet fast i dens kabinet).
Nu er den gamle 4TB HDD erstattet med en 1 TB SSD- og så spiller den bare- med Linux Mint vel at mærke. Jeg er ikke Apple fan, men den pynter altså! <3
Today’s schedule: 1) Venture into the Swamp. 2) Immediately regret venturing into the Swamp. 3) Spend 45 minutes on a corpse run. Live on Linux right now! #linuxgaming…

Montgomery County (MD) Linux Users Group is having our August meeting today at 1pm at the Long Branch Library, in the meeting room. #Linux
I am glad that more projects are trying to boost their progress and possibly enhance quality using AI, nice to see #Debian on that side, even tho I am long time RHEL-family distros user.
I wonder what all those raging ppl around would feel, if for example Linus Torvalds used AI for Linux development...
Oh wait

#linux on Snapdragon laptops is interesting; it's pretty usable for me; but there's lots of patches still flying around - but Qualcomm do seem to be sending lots of patches upstream, so it's good to see that.

Image is a bit blurry, but from starting up the new #linux laptop, check for software, install updates (includes kernel update) it was under three and a quarter minutes and includes time waiting for me to respond.

Something I terribly hate about #Linux is its unwillingness to hibernate with #SecureBoot enabled. I don't want to keep my computer idle for several hours just to preserve the states of the currently running programs.
Fun time for the #linux laptop. Doing a snapshot (#mxsnapshot) of my complete system. Later I will do a bootable USB stick and label it. If something goes wrong I have the ability to restore the system. I also will have to test it out to make sure that it does work.
Next weekend it will be time to do a complete backup of all documents to an external USB drive for the laptop and the mi…
Back into Valheim on the Linux rig! Proton is running silky smooth, which is great because all my lag is strictly user error. Come watch me get absolutely flattened by a falling tree in 60fps: https://www.twitch.tv/tuxramus 🌲🪵🪓
I really wish Google would allow us to modify the themes in a chromebook. Black or white sucks. I prefer the title bar to show a different colour to indicate it is the foreground task. Also set up a border around the app to make it visually obvious where it is. That pathetic shadow doesn't cut it at all. Similar rant for Windows. For my #linux boxes I have them set to make it obvious …
I've finally bisected my TV problem and indeed, #amdgpu starting to output RGB by default was the cause. Also found out that I can force YUV444 via debugfs, so with some hacking, I can actually use the latest #Linux kernel.

Yay, one of the MMORPG has put out a beta client for #linux. Installed and tried to run, but they need to update their instructions.
1. APPIMAGE needs to be marked executable.
2. Client defaults to a fixed resolution. You may want to go into video settings and make it resizable.
I may play it again tonight and see if it saved my config changes.

More Valheim today! Come watch a grown man get endlessly bullied by two-star Greydwarfs while trying to build a aesthetically pleasing pig pen. Live now: #linuxgaming …
Hier ein Beispiel, wie ein älterer Mensch, wie auch ich einer bin, mit Linux zurecht kommt.
#LinuxRukes
#Microsoft gotta find out how to do unobtrusive updates for #Windows.
Most #Linux distros found out how to do this properly decades ago.
All that corporate money and human resource and MS can't deal…
In #Linux, I can figure out a binding corresponding to a compat string in a device tree by grepping through `Documentation/devicetree/bindings/` - or find a driver, grepping through `drivers/`.
That gives me the C source file. Now how do I figure out the corresponding Kconfig option?
Just grep for the C source file name in the Makefile in the same directory, but search for foo.o instead of foo.c.
That yields, e.g.:
obj-$(CONFIG_FSL_XGMAC_MDIO) = xgmac_mdio.o
Now let's make a tool for it! 👩💻✨
Dropping back into Valheim today! Time to gather more resources, expand the base, and hopefully not get pulverized by a Troll. Grab a brew and come hang out! 🌲 hammer ⚔️

The Steam Frame is released. At a shockingly high price range, but that's RAM for you in these post-ai days.
This means improvement on Linux VR in general with all the latest patches. The home-room is updated, the menus all looking fancy and new. Even if you got an old Vive.
Even more exciting than that, Steam have agreed to serve my place in the wait-queue so one might even arrive here in the coming weeks and thank goodnes it's after payday. If it was a week ago I might have had to give up my place.
Sounds like the Alyx updates intend for that game to run on the machine stand-alone, which would be nice. Able to take that big old complex game on the road to demo at parties.
Anyway. I'm poor again and dunno how long the wait for the package will be, but looking forward to seeing it.
God I hope it's not shit and rescues us from the Facebook-dominated market since they bought Oculus.

nano, they say, it'll always be there when you're setting up a linux box, and it's very lightweight.

Zero days since the #Linux #kernel made a security release of all branches, containing exactly one patch, except for 6.12 which was skipped for no clear reason, and there doesn't seem to be anything about that on the ml. And now I'm scratching my head if I should do a backport for #Gentoo, or wait for the release, or perhaps there was a good reason why the patch was added to every other LTS branch but not 6.12…
Live now with #Valheim! 🌲 Upgrading gear, exploring new horizons, and keeping the hearth burning. Drop in and say hi!

So now Home Assistant requires you to open its web UI via http in order to... change the web UI http settings. What the fuck could go wrong right? This has to be the dumbest change I've ever seen done in a software.
If the default settings don't work for you how are you supposed to do the first configuration of your instance?

Uh, #Linux #AMDGPU folks managed it. The 7.2.2 kernel somehow manages to break saturation control on my TV. I mean, the kernel on the connected PC, not the TV. I have no clue how or why it would be able to do that, but the TV is ignoring the saturation slider and running at full saturation, making my eyes bleed.
Is er qua prijs/prestatie verhouding wel iets wat in de buurt komt van een Mac Mini M6 (bijv 24GB voor €1500) voor het lokaal draaien en experimenteren met AI modellen, in de zin van Windows/Linux systemen, nog niet veel tegengekomen ? 🤔 Maar suggesties zijn welkom!

Yet another thing to check out.
Reading a lot of Linux projects talking about LLMs now, focusing on if they work well enough or not. No talk about ethics, ideals or politics.
If it continues down this path, FLOSS will end up like the Ed Sheeran of software.
