Ironically, even Microsoft uses Linux in its Azure datacenters, iirc

As a microbiologist, I get to work with such freezers from time to time - they, too, get used for long-term storage. Technically, at around +4°C most organisms (but not all) put their activity to a halt, which is why your fridge is set at that, and at around -18°C just about everything stops any processes (thereby, freezer temperature), but the thing is, freezing at -18°C leads to the formation of relatively large ice crystals, which causes many cells to rip and die, which is perfectly fine if you want to preserve food (except cells in food also rip and unfrozen products are not quite like the original), but not optimal if you want to store cells themselves. If you freeze at -80°C and lower, smaller ice particles end up not damaging the organisms so much, and they can later be restored. However, such fridges are expensive and draw, like, A LOT of power, and storing much stuff under such conditions gets costly.

Nowhere near as costly as the offerings are, though.

Fair enough! But won't they flip again to start the program?

So, creating a massive headache for government ~15-20 years into the future?

Or what is the point?

MGTOW is absolutely no better.

The most beautiful thing about this program is that it would work.

Various bit flips will once lead to all numbers being in the correct order. No guarantee the numbers will be the same, though...

One could argue that completely open borders, like in Schengen area, are practically nonexistent. You can cross them anytime, no one stops you.

Though various countries in this scenario can still impose some restrictions and kick you out if you get caught somewhere on their territory.

Agreed with you!

Kernel cannot follow or not follow any legal rules. Linux Foundation can.

And if regulations become a serious issue and go against the spirit of open-source, it is time to move the Foundation somewhere else.

If we follow through with it, I would absolutely never ever trust anyone from the US, for example. US is very much known for cyber espionage and shady operations, and could absolutely backdoor Linux.

This is all power play, and it comes from a very certain direction amidst this political struggle.

You want your open source code not to have backdoors? Review it meticulously. This is really the only way, and the one an entire open-source community relies on - pretty successfully, by the way.

So, I recently got interested with the idea of an atomic distro, particularly the derivatives of Fedora Kinoite (currently testing Aurora).

What's your experience with them? What are the unexpected troubles and did you manage to resolve them? Do you feel it's worth it to learn the nuances of their use?

Also, on a personal testing note, did you manage to properly run AppImages and what did you do to make it happen? I couldn't properly run them either natively or via Fedora toolbox on Aurora. (Also, I borked Aurora within 4 hours of trying to install Outline VPN that consistently had issues with tunneling).

 

Just updated to Plasma 6, and got a question: is there a way to make the bottom panel keep at the bottom (like when fullscreen windows are opened) and not float regardless of windows?

Just always stay there without moving, like in Plasma 5.

Or is it dictated by the theme/hardcoded into Plasma 6?

As Funimation drama unravels, here's a reminder for you that yt-dlp is able to download Funimation videos. Use that opportunity to preserve your collections before they're gone! (and keep them forever and ever)
