Osmand+ is my favorite

Go to packages.slackware.com or slackbuilds.org and you will see the base system has reasonably up to date packages.

Slackware.

It. Just. Works.

OwnCloud and Yunohost are the two that comes to mind. I will let you Google them.

How do I configure my Linux, on a laptop, to consume as little battery as possible?

A bit of context: one of my laptop ran Ubuntu, with acceptable battery drain (up to 3h30 of usage, running desktop applications: Firefox, terminal, vim, etc). This is a high-end laptop: 12 AMD Ryzen + AMD Rembrandt.

I switched to open use, and now battery drains in one hour, running the exact same applications. Installed tuned, selected power save, tried power top, applied different parameters, etc, but no result: battery still dies after 1h. No improvement at all.

I am going to investigate on my own, but any help is greatly appreciated.

There is a guy named Arthur David Olson who maintains a small database of all the time zones in the world, including things like leap seconds and such. It's used by everybody and it is updated several times a year. See here:

I live in Paris, I have been to London, Berlin, Brussels, Amsterdam, Athens and Rome.

My two favourites are Berlin and Rome. Berlin because of the energy and just plain coolness, Rome because where else can you find so much amazing art and architecture within 10 or 20 minutes of each other, walking distance? And the food is amazing, of course.

Second in line are Amsterdam, Athens and London, all of them great, but London I found was really expensive. Athens is a bit behind Rome, but a truly lovely place to explore. Amsterdam is also lovely, accessible and very very beautiful.

Brussels is OK, I guess, but mainly for the people who I thought were very kind. Some places in Brussels are ok, but it's not as nice as Amsterdam for example.

Next in line for me are Madrid and Lisbon, I love Spain already and I can recommend places like Granada and Sevilla, which are totally amazing.

If it's several python modules, then yes, choose a license and then contact pypi and see if you can distribute your modules through them.

One very important thing is that you have to make sure everything is ready for distribution: check your project will work (possibly starting with a blank VM), what its dependencies are, that the requirements.txt file is good and operational, that automated tests are available for people to run after installing, etc.

In other words, the ideal project is not just a question of license but also all the scaffoldings you supply with it.

Thanks for opening your code!

I have Osmand+ and it works fine. One very easy way to improve the performance is to download the maps you need ahead of time.

Start by downloading your metro area and I can guarantee that positioning and navigation will be instantaneous. Unless your phone is to blame. FYI I am using a Google Nexus 7a. Very happy with Osmand+.

OK, I agree it could be something more malicious, and that the safest solution is always to bin something unknown.

My position is that the op knows the USB device and suspects it has been compromised by connecting it to a windows machine. But the content may be worth salvaging. In that case, my advice still applies.
