The funding.json file requires a full name email and phone number. Absolutely ridiculous. People are already scraping git commit emails for spam mail, this is just making their lives easier
Anything is better than minetest which sounded like a hastily written debugging mod for Minecraft
I had the same issue so wrote this down when I figured it out
gpg2 --quick-generate-key hello@example.com ed25519 default 0
gpg2 --quick-add-key <FINGERPRINT> ed25519
gpg2 --list-keys --with-subkey-fingerprint --keyid-format long
Is that your experience with the OS or cosmic?
Honestly, it’s not as important. These projects are working with very limited resources, typically dependent on free labour. Accessibility is incredibly hard to get right and half arsing it isn’t going to work. The priority should be pushing out a reliable, working prototype that people want to use. Once that’s accomplished you can refocus on expanding the features.
Demand for reliable multi monitor support is going to be far higher than screen reading capabilities.
A few IDEs already provide some help with YAML. Rider will tell you if you’ve screwed up the YAML for a GitHub Actions workflow, and possibly docker-compose as well
How regularly do you really need them? Surely by the time you come to reinstall an OS there’s already a later version available, doesn’t it just make sense to create a fresh USB each time?
For example about a month ago I installed Project Bluefin on a couple of devices so that USB is lying around somewhere. But in the meantime the maintainers have rotated the update signing keys so that month old installer is now redundant.
Wouldn’t it just be easier to store stuff on the phone…
Isn’t it just far easier to transfer documents using one of the thousands of cloud apps though? Since Dropbox and such became a thing I’ve not had a use for USBs. If it’s privacy that concerns you then you already mentioned self hosted services and I’m sure there’s a few Dropbox clones among them.
There’s not much point in survival PDFs unless you’re also carrying a laptop to view them on.
If you really do want to go full apocalypse prepper then track down an archive of Wikipedia and various how-to websites.
The reason you’re struggling to think of anything to put on it is because you don’t need to be carrying a USB drive.
No aircraft cabin crew have ever put out a call asking if there are any Linux sysadmin onboard with a copy of GParted Live v1.5.0 for 32bit ARM devices .
What are your issues with Fedora? I’d really recommend giving one or more of the universal blue OSs ago regardless as they’re pretty far from native Silverblue. Project Bluefin for instance has a solidly Ubuntu feel.
edit: reading your responses elsewhere I can guarantee you won’t have the same update/reliability issues you had with Fedora because the universal blue model is entirely different
This is a good tip but is there not a more reliable way for the issue to be communicated to users? I suspect many people are going to be stuck on the pre-error version of Bluefin, unaware that updating is broken.
I used Ubuntu for a long while, then Debian for a new PC because the video card or display just wasn’t working on Ubuntu.
Couple of weeks ago I finally tried this distro hopping thing people have been on about. I’d stuck with Ubuntu for so long due to an apparently misguided belief that it was stable.
I’m now using Project Bluefin from Universal Blue, a derivative of Fedora Silverblue and I’m blown away by how good it is. It uses Gnome and the maintainer has packaged a few tweaks to keep it similar in user experience to Ubuntu, along with a fantastic array of great software I never knew existed.
I’d highly recommend it to anyone historically loyal to Debian or Ubuntu.
For gaming you can easily install Bazzite as a container to access Steam. I can’t say I fully follow the tech stack that makes it work, but it just does. Whereas my boilerplate Steam install on Debian was completely botched.
Universal Blue really is the future…
There have been so many announcements that a release candidate of a release will be coming out /soon/. It’s utterly pointless non-news.
Please can this drivel be banished.
Wait until 3.0.0 is actually released and then post it for discussion.
