psud, to world in Incredibly, The Russian Air Force Has Lost Another Rare A-50 Radar Plane

We need a checklist like there is for Russian warships

psud, to lemmyshitpost in Memes: still going strong after 102 years.

Thanks for that. Charlie Chaplin films are excellent

psud, to lemmyshitpost in [Politics] Have phobia, will travel

I feel the community is split between Voyager and DS9

psud, to linux in Why isn't it recommended to change the SIGINT shortcut from Ctrl+C to something like Ctrl+SHIFT+C?

Ctrl+shift+k and u? I’m pretty sure it’s Ctrl+k and +u

psud, to lemmyshitpost in Unnamed island

We don’t currently have such a supercontinent

The two supercontinent are Afro-eurasia and the Americas

Add the other response put it, the past single supercontinent when all the current continents were squashed together is called Pangea

psud, to linux in Critical vulnerability affecting most Linux distros allows for bootkits

Admin or physical access.

psud, to linux in Critical vulnerability affecting most Linux distros allows for bootkits

It’s also a new way to compromise a machine you have physical access to

psud, to lemmyshitpost in Americans are asleep, post European windows

Not an issue in Australia, but I bet brick stops or slows bullets more than wood

Our brick construction doesn’t do well in earthquakes. If a roof is going to fall on you, you don’t want it made of tiles

psud, to linux in Stop being elitist, spread Linux!

Ubuntu, if I need to reset it, it’ll be Debian/gnome

psud, to linux in Considering Starting Linux

Linux from scratch was my third Linux, after RedHat, and Debian. That seemed a reasonable point in an interested person’s Linux journey to try a difficult “learning” system

psud, to linux in Considering Starting Linux

If your budget stretches to a new laptop, framework make laptops (light weight or serious game machines) that come with Linux installed.

If you have no budget some second hand high end Chromebooks can be converted to mainstream Linux (video)

The other comments suggesting old ThinkPads are fine, but they’re heavier than I like to carry

You can make your own for just moderately expensive

psud, to linux in Are there any studies done on how much linux can save governments money if they do a whole migration?

Windows to KDE is a smaller change than major windows version changes. Pre-ribbon office to newer office

You know how you make the expertise in a large organisation?

You call for volunteers to run a pilot, move one team or a product to open source alternatives, learn what skills are needed in your tech people, what transition training is needed for staff

Have the pilot group select the desktop environment, change it if the choice generates too many tickets

Take that and roll it out more broadly, possibly aligned with new desktop hardware rollouts

Add to the good - you get to know that the US government couldn’t lean on a single American company for access to your organisation’s secrets

I watched the process where a set of Unix machines we had were up for replacement. The first version of the request had as the preferred option IBM hardware and Linux, the second version - after it had been to the executives - had the preferred option as IBM hardware and AIX

Like the exec knew what either were, but they would have had a consultant check the proposal. Then they pretend to have respect for the professionals they employ
