And what is the compiler supposed to do instead? Go shopping for you
and buy more memory?

My government offers public subsidies for buying computers and laptops. That’s great, right? I’ve been able to use a modern laptop for the first time in years. After buying a laptop with that subsidy, I received an email informing me that the antivirus connection couldn’t be detected.
- Yeah, so? I don’t need antivirus software. I use GNU/Linux and common sense, and that’s been enough for two decades.
- Yeah, but you have to install Windows 11 Pro and this antivirus so we don’t pe…

Turing Completeness of GNU find: From mkdir-assisted Loops to Standalone Computation
The Unix command \texttt{find} is among the first commands taught to beginners, yet remains indispensable for experienced engineers. In this paper, we demonstrate that \texttt{find} possesses unexpected computational power, establishing three Turing completeness results using the GNU implementation (a standard in Linux distributions). (1) \texttt{find} + \texttt{mkdir} (a system that has only \texttt{find} and \texttt{mkdir}) is Turing complete: by encoding computational states as directory pat…

Kai hat mich jetzt ja schon ein wenig genervt. So, dass ich jetzt doch mal nachgeschaut habe, wer denn (außer meinem Gatten) damals Vorträge gehalten hat.
Und, naja, seht ihr auch, was ich sehe?

Fun with MATLAB (for school). I've been dogfooding my little browser #Sunstone for a while now, and that includes using it for school. My Linear Algebra course is forcing us to use MATLAB (why not GNU Octave, or NumPy?) and things seemed to be going fine until it came time to export the file to pdf. Press the button, nothing. NADA. I figured it's something to do with Sunstone not bei…

GNU Guix, but you have to pronounce the name like it's Dutch

I have been using GNU/Linux for almost 18 years now (started with Ubuntu 7.10 in April 2008, just before 8.04 (Hardy Heron) was released). In that time, I stuck with Ubuntu for a few years, then switched to CrunchBang (#!) Linux, which then shifted its base from Ubuntu to Debian before ceasing to exist entirely (it was a one-man project), at which point I migrated to Debian proper (I think back in 2014).

I've been playing around with GNU Octave in the terminal while taking my Linear algebra course. So far it's run everything I've thrown at it in Matlab syntax without question, and it's really been helpful grinding through assignments.
Yet another reminder of how awesome Free Software is, what a perfect match it is for academic use and what a terrible shame it is that almost no universities take advantage of such resources, always seeming to prefer proprietary crap.

Ik heb onlangs linux mint op een oude macbook air geïnstalleerd, maar nu is er een kernel update en krijg ik deze foutmelding bij het installeren. Zijn er meer mensen die dit hebben gezien? En heb je een oplossing gevonden?

I feel like desktop GNU/Linux nowadays (especially around #GNOME) is a lot like: "Do you recall this thing #Android does that you really hate? Good news, everyone, we just copied it to our application, and you can't switch back!"

Sagt mal, hier sind doch auch einige Leute die Manjaro nutzen, habt ihr ne Diskussion in der Forum mitbekommen, wo über die Zukunft von Manjaro diskutiert wird ?
Hab heute ein Video gesehen, wo die Youtuberin einen Artikel bei Linux/Gnu.ch zeigt und da stand was von Manifest.
Ich nutze auf einen Notebook Manjaro mit Cinnamon. Glaube ich werde es mal umstellen, was ich eh vorhatte. Da ich gerne mal CrazyOS probieren wollte, genau der richtige Zeitpunkt dafür ;D

Okay, I'm asking the Mastodon Hivemind something. It concerns GNU/Linux (specifically Debian), Signal Messenger, and Proton VPN.
Edit: Somehow fixed by changing the VPN server _on the router_ (which passes through the desktop untouched...supposedly). I don't get it.
