Maybe finding the (n!)²th prime?
From my experience, I’ll rather pay for a Linux consultant than for regular commercial support. They give me solid results and join my teams when they have something to do. And consultants seem to prefer Debian-based distributions, when I ask them directly.
I have not the slightest idea why companies use Red Hat. When people think this is how Linux is, no wonder they think Linux sucks.
I have to use Red Hat and I cannot stop thinking about how much more professional Debian appears to me. They can at least make decent packages that work properly.
I recently removed my 25Gbps PCIe dual port cards from my 2 servers because they were using 20W more. My entire rack including 2 UniFi PoE connections uses 90 W now (so 110 W just for having 25 Gpbs).
There is some heat from such cards, but usually it gets transported outside fine. The ones I bought did not come with a fan. I think you cannot operate them without one. The heat sinks get very hot.

I’ve been using FreeBSD for 20 years on my desktop. I’ve been also mainly using it because I was literally afraid of using Linux filesystems for data storage, when I learned how ZFS works.
Now with bcachefs the situation is different. It’s nice to see an advanced filesystem on Linux, even it’s still beta. I migrated my desktop to Linux, but will keep FreeBSD on my servers for a while, because it’s less hassle for me.
Actually I stopped liking the FreeBSD community. They made a lot of drama in the past years and I stopped being active there. I haven’t reported bugs anymore and fixed them privately or reported directly to upstream. I have many nice things running on servers, but I’m thinking about moving to Debian entirely.
I still don’t really know what you mean. How a document looks like depends on you. I’ve got very many fonts available, much more than average Microsoft Office user has. And it’s easier to use LibreOffice from my point of view, because it emphasizes structure. It looks much cleaner by default than MS Word. The only thing MS Word is better in is typesetting. LibreOffice simply fails to place letters properly.
Documents produced by office suites are not really good for publications. They are very annoying to handle, no matter if it’s MS Office or Libre. The cheapest option to have something professional is LaTeX.
I don’t understand why ODT is complicated. It’s a zipfile with inspectible data. The standard document is also not as vendor-specific as MS OOXML which is thousands of pages that everybody gave up upon.
It’s because it’s not the native format. How does MS Office show/edit ODT documents? Does it work better?
You don’t want it until something fails. SystemD often doesn’t let you log in to fix it. It just shows a “infinitely bouncing asterisk” and hopes it will magically get better.
I had numerous situations where systemd didn’t let me abort a hanging service startup during boot or stop during shutdown.
So what do I do now, systemd? Wait till infinity??
That never happened while using other init systems. Because they simply fail properly (“sorry I did my best to stop this, I needed a SIGKILL finally”). Or simply let me log in: “sorry, some services failed to start and now it’s a huge mess, but at least you can log in and fix it.”.
You forgot: use as many dependencies as you need. For example, my init system does not use xz-utils
.
To keep the system simple and transparent.
Did you use iperf
? It makes sure that HDD/SSD is not the bottleneck.
You can also check the statistics and watch for uncommon errors. Or trace the connection with tcpdump
.
Yep. Unreal Tournament was also great and Neverwinter Nights.
Maybe… just not make exclusive deals? Especially not on mediocre game distribution platforms.
The only problem is sync across devices. There are not many good options. Maybe it’ll get better with DB support later.
Maybe it’s not what you want to hear, but I was looking these types of apps, too, some time ago.
Then I noticed that most of the apps are useless for me and found an interesting type of apps that implement a “second brain”. There are a few of them, but I chose Logseq.
When you program embedded you’ll also dereference NULL
pointers at some point.
Some platforms can have something interesting at memory address 0x0
(it’s often NULL
in C).
Any errors on the interfaces? Does tcpdump show something interesting? What do the system logs say?
Stable is for servers, unstable for desktop. It has worked for 20 years. I actually installed two further Debian workstations recently after trying and failing with Kubuntu. So … no, I don’t have this problem.
No idea why busybox is needed. Is this is your emergency boot environment like initramfs? Sometimes it’s nice that Linux boots up and offers an environment to fix stuff while some modules are broken.
