I’ve bought several Pine products over the years, and they’re all on a shelf gathering dust. If you like writing software to make a cost-engineered piece of hardware with basically no useful software at all work as you might expect an actual product you paid for from a shop, they’re great.

If you’re expecting a useful out of box experience, or even a useful experience after hours of hacking and tuning, they are not for you.

Given I can have four Gtk apps not in FlatPaks all have different title bars in GNOME proper, I don’t think this will ever work properly.

It’s Monday, Captain.

Aww she didn’t even say read the rules and understand them! Still, totally unsurprising. Long may this sort of thing get leaked to show local councillors, especially amateaurs like Reform, are disorganised as the rest of us.

Reminder that The Canary is run by frothy-mouthed moaners who spin everything negatively unless personally blessed by Corbyn. It is not balanced, fair, or independent reporting. It’s clearly also nonsense, as “en masse” implies the entire group previously described, and I’m pretty sure a) the Labour Party still has members, b) Your Party can’t even decide how it is you become a member.

A much better, less sensationalist article is the one they link to: https://walthamforestecho.co.uk/2025/09/30/21-leyton-and-wanstead-labour-party-members-resign-over-right-wing-drift/

It’s boring and predictable, which is precisely what I want from a distribution. It also benefits from not being a desktop OS, or a server OS, or an embedded OS, it’s all of those: learning Debian is useful even if you hate it and don’t run it personally because you will encounter it somewhere.

You have swap, which is pointless in this day and age, and will just burn a hole in the flash and delay the OOM killer doing its work. Look at ntfsresize to shrink that Windows partition down to the minimum. Then maybe image the partitions and obliterate them from the SSD. Use LVM instead to give yourself future flexibility. 1TB NVMe SSDs are so cheap these days they might as well put them in boxes of cereal.

Because he’s not been working in music for years and has instead been championing exactly this subject.

No chance to save lives unless sharp-tipped knives are banned and they’re all destroyed. Otherwise it’s a gimmick that just inconveniences.

I don’t seem to be able to upvote this twice.

This is karma for saying it works in tea.

ext4 because I value my data and don’t want to lose it. I used to mess about with ZFS for mass storage but it’s a university course to learn how to use and have decent performance.

I used to use XFS, but ext4 caught up.

And I used to use XFS… on something other than Linux.
