It is pretty bad when even your server wants to install Snaps when using Ubuntu.
That is both pathetic and sad.
Here marks my end of support for Ubuntu, because I am not going to be dealing with what is becoming the Microsoft of Linux.

Happy Birthday, #Linux! 🐧🎈🎂
On August 25th, 1991, 21-year-old Linus Torvalds announced in an online mailing list he had created a “free OS.”
Today, from nest devices to NASA rovers on mars, #android smartphones to the #top500 supercomputers: #Linux powers technology of all levels, all around the world.
Dream big with #FOSS.

Nach 20 Jahren landet der Echtzeit-Support im #Linux Mainline-Kernel und Linux 6.11 erscheint. Das Linux Magazin wird 30 Jahre alt. Mono wird an Wine übergeben und Elasticsearch wechselt wieder zu einer Open Source-Lizenz. Die zukünftige Pflege der Linux-Manpages ist ungewiss. #Fedora 41 Beta, #Ubuntu 24.04.1 und #GNOME 47 erscheinen. #HeliumOS startet als neue Distribution.
Das #Ubuntu-Projekt wird stolze 20 Jahre alt - ein guter Grund zu feiern! 2004 hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, ein Betriebssystem zu werden, das von allen benutzt werden kann und hat somit viel für die Verbreitung von #Linux auf dem Desktop getan. Neben der frühen Geschichte des Projekts besprechen wir auch zahlreiche Highlights vergangener Versionen, zwischenzeitlich vergessene Software und natürlich unsere persönlichen Anekdoten.
Feliĉan 20-jariĝon de Ubuntu!

Zurück von der #SUBSCRIBE11 besprechen wir in der neuen #FocusOnLinux-Episode auch wieder News: #Ubuntu 24.10, #OpenBSD 7.6, KDE Plasma 6.2 und Forgejo 9.0 erscheinen. openSUSE kündigt eine erste Leap 16.0-Alpha an und AlmaLinux veröffentlicht die 9.5 Beta. Zwischen #WordPress und WP Engine entfacht ein verbitterter Rechtsstreit und auch der hitzig diskutierte #Winamp-Quellcode verschwindet wieder. Eine #CUPS-Lücke sorgt für Probleme.
Okay this is wild: I just noticed that changing 'PasswordAuthentication' to 'no' in /etc/ssh/sshd_config is no longer enough to disable password authentication in #ubuntu. That's because Ubuntu Server now by default creates a sshd_config.d/50-cloud-init.conf file which contains 'PasswordAuthentication yes' which takes priority over sshd_config.
I would've unknowingly left password auth on if I hadn't double checked.
Why?

This newbie who just celebrated 100 days of #selfhosting was able to install #Apache and #Varnish on her #Ubuntu VPS (to prevent the "Mastodon Hug of Death" for link preview cards on her self-hosted Ghost blog). She's very proud of herself for all the sudo commands she successfully ran today. And she's weirded out talking about herself in the third person, so: I did it YAY.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this Linux / self-hosting journey I'm on. Thank you for all your support & encouragement ❤️
My week with Linux: I'm dumping Windows … to see how it goes | Tom's Hardware
The choice of which Linux distribution to use is not particularly important. However, selecting a distribution is always a necessary step for those new to Linux. In my opinion, #Ubuntu is still the best in terms of completeness of software and ecosystems.
Pretty great to see this (via @gombang)
Seems like #Linux has seen some significant (300%) growth since 2021. In that time, I've gone from using just #Windows + #ChromeOS to now running Linux (#Mint + #Ubuntu Cinnamon) my laptops.
