And by the way, I decided to give OpenSUSE Tumbleweed another try today. Since Debian has its little quirks with my keyboards and I don’t want to use a distribution with a U.S. background like Fedora, OpenSUSE would be the politically correct choice for me as a European solution.

LinuxBoot is the concept of using a Linux kernel and initramfs as a bootloader. The linuxboot repository contains a build system implementing LinuxBoot primarily targeting servers and PCs, which started as NERF in January 2017 at Google. Why? Improves boot reliability by replacing lightly-tested firmware drivers with hardened Linux drivers. Improves boot time by removing unnecessary code. Typically makes boot 20 times faster. Allows customization of the initrd runtime to support site-specific…

GNOME 50 bricht endgültig mit der Vergangenheit und schließt die Umstellung von GNOME auf eine reine Wayland-Desktopumgebung ab. Die Entwickler entfernten den verbliebenen Code des bereits mit GNOME 49 deaktivierten X11.

The amount of work that some distros put into their installers release after release is always amusing to me, almost like an expected use case of #linux is that people will be installing from scratch frequently.
