I think the “Ubuntu Core 22” means it is the snap based version of Steam rather than the deb version.

If you look at the snapcraft.yaml for the Steam snap, it uses core22 as its base.

Wow, thanks for sharing. I’ve already read the Old Man’s War series, but now I can finish the Collapsing Empire series (only read the first book).

You can self-host libreddit, which is what I do, and it will still continue to work. That said, it is on borrowed time as development has mostly stopped.

All the public instances are unusable b/c of the rate-limits, unfortunately.

And that’s exactly what happened in your case David. Which is why I’m so happy (also because I fixed the tools from an author I like and already had the books at home :-P):

Really detailed and cool response from the kernel developer. I also found the use of the recent BPF feature to provide a workaround until a proper kernel fix lands really interesting.

Just to note… I’m not the author of the blog post, I just shared it b/c I thought it was an interesting story. I don’t think the author is on Lemmy.

I read that, but I don’t know if that means they will publish stable releases via the same repository. That just sounds like the packages themselves will end up being in those channels (which makes sense, nightly becomes beta, which becomes a release, which ends up as esr). It doesn’t necessarily mean this apt repository will be a release channel itself.

That said, there is the Mozilla Team PPA.

Would to see them publish stable releases via this apt repository as well.

Not a fan of the XPS line (expensive, not great thermals, and meh port selection) and I have never own one (though I’ve seen others with them). That said, I have a few of their Latitudes (currently using Latitude 7420) and one Precision and those run Linux really well.

One thing most people don’t realize is that Dell does support Linux (ie. Ubuntu) beyond the XPS line and you can buy Latitudes or Precisions with Linux support OOTB. Additionally, Dell ships firmware updates via LVFS on their XPS, Latitude, and Precision lines. The support isn’t perfect, but I have been happy with using Dell hardware and Linux for over a decade now.

PS. You can get really good deals via the Dell Outlet (my current laptop is refurbished from there), and you can usually find a number of off-lease or 2nd systems or parts on Ebay (very similar to Thinkpads).

Great video. Our Linux Users Group will watch it every few years… it’s amazing to see how much has changed in 20 years.

I can recommend the book Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution, which I’ve read multiple times. I can also recommend Linus’ autobiography Just For Fun.

You can also consider The Cathedral and the Bazaar… though ESR can be a bit much.

That said, here are some random articles I’ve saved that you might be interested in:

• The History of Red Hat
• The future of open source is still very much in flux
• IBM, Red Hat and Free Software: An old maddog’s view
• The early days of Linux
• The Strange Birth and Long Life of Unix

Yes, most of the major distributions have package updates with the fix. A few people have mentioned updates for Arch, Debian, and RedHat already.

Ubuntu released an update yesterday as well:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/2.35-0ubuntu3.4

Ubuntu derivatives such as Pop!_OS should have also received this update, along with the X11 patches.

FYI, Ubuntu/Pop!_OS have already pushed out updates.

Kinda disappointing as it shows a lack of care and support for Linux, but hopefully the fix will come out soon.

I look forward to seeing the Linux numbers.

RIP. Sorry :|

It’s not a gnome extension, but you can use tdrop to implement this functionality. This a shell script that lets you make any program a drop down. Once you have the command you want to run, you can then add key bindings to gnome to toggle it.

Oh, just to be clear… I’m not the author of the blog post. I just shared the link :]

I think this is part of the recommended (external) nginx configuration for lemmy:

limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone={{domain}}_ratelimit:10m rate=1r/s;

Which can be found here

I’ve been using GPaste as my clipboard manager for a while. It can save multiple items in the clipboard and you can switch between which items you want to paste.

It doesn’t have a keybinding for the “last second thing”, but if you are OK with using your mouse to switch to another item, it would work for what you are asking.

Pretty sad state of affairs :|
