I read that Stéphane's publishing process is a `make install', which is cool.

My blog-publishing process is radically different: I use `make push'.

True minimalism!!! I definitely have to try it

"Mwm: an X11 window manager in 20 lines of code

Is KDE too much for you? GNOME tries to do too much? Xfce still a bit too fancy? Do you need something smaller? Even more minimalist? What about a mere 20 lines of code which provide the absolute barest possible minimum of window management functionality?

You need mwm."

For some reason, I go months between deeply reading rust or c. But when I do, it's invariably to do something my brain is entirely ill equipped to do, like compare the ioctls in freebsd cpucontrol(8)'s CPUCTL_UPDATE vs solarish ucodeadm(8)'s UCODE_UPDATE.

The moment I install Arch, I’m swept away by its customization, yet somehow, I find myself missing the stable comfort of a rock, and before I know it, I’m back on Debian again!

Between hundreds of kernel knobs, pluggable LSMs, systemd worming into everything, and a userland mashup of dbus, glibc, and 50 other daemons...
is it even realistic to secure a modern Linux box anymore?

Compare that to OpenBSD or a tight FreeBSD jail — where the surface area is minimal and sane by default.

Is “do one thing well” security dead on Linux?

Let’s talk attack surface, patch fatigue, and whether “hardening” just means hoping no one finds the hole.

Why bother with #Linux, when there's serviceable, established, free #UNIX, called #Beastie #BSD? Linux—that's so 1990s. The 1960s UNIX's where it's at.

OK, I'm just asking for it. Let it rip.

In your opinion, what can the Linux community do to spread Linux even more?

How can we get ordinary people to adopt Linux and free software?

I know it all boils down to making it more user-friendly for the general public, which is something that has improved over the years.

What else?

There are more shells than Bash and I'm curious to see the % of how many people uses wich one of the more or less classic shells. Choose your preferred one.

It wasn't #Unix, and it was in the year 2001. But I vividly remember running #Linux on a #Compaq #iPaq (Model H3600) my former employer gifted to me when I completed my training.
I was already done with #Windows at that time, so I ditched #Microsoft #PocketPC in favor of Linux. The distribution was called Lisa, IIRC. I had to invest into a sleeve and a 128MB Compact Flash card to enable Installation of a full LAMP-stack... had to compile it on the device...

"ZFS snapshots as poor man's ransomware recovery"

It holds up. Better than you'd think.

Ransomware hits a server? I roll back to a snapshot taken 10 minutes ago. Immutable, local, instant.

No restore wizard. No cloud latency. No vendor lock-in.

Just:

zfs rollback pool/dataset@safe

Gone. Like it never happened.

You want real ransomware defense?

Immutable local snapshots

Offsite ZFS send/mirror

Key-based SSH, no password logins

Restore script you actually test

ZFS isn’t "enterprise." It’s survival-grade.

As a Debian user for three years, and Linux for 5 years, I find it hilarious that I know more about Windows than my friends who actually use Windows as their main OS.

At this point, I feel like their go-to tech support, except I’m the only one who gets confused when I see a Windows license key that actually works!
