Currently doing finals for my Junior year in Computer Science. Finishing up the homelab, and packing it up since I have to take it home since I won’t be dorming over the summer. Also trying to learn Rust.
Also it didn’t let me submit this with the “English” language, I had to select undetermined.
My favorite, the most comprehensive course I have seen this this one: https://professionallinuxusersgroup.github.io/course-books/lac/syllabus/
Most knowledge is transferable to most distros. Some distros deviate by using alternate init systems (the part responsible for booting the system and managing services), but most distros use the same underlying suite of software to manage it.
On diference between distros is the package manager, but although the commands may be different, the underlying operations of installing, searching for, and removing software packages are all the same.
If you want Debian, my recommendation is to install Linux Mint Debian Edition, which is based on Debian, rather than Ubuntu. Save for some extras focusing on usability/UX/UI, it uses Debian’s repos.
Linux Mint is the team behind the timeshift tool in the first place: https://github.com/linuxmint/timeshift , so you can be assured there is first class support.
If you want something more up to date, I would recommend Opensuse tumbleweed, yes, although they use snapper instead.
And if you download an RPM for a 3rd party driver (like the printer for example) chances are there will be unmet dependencies because it was meant for Red Hat.
I have never needed to download a driver for a printer on any Linux distro. Most of the time it just works using IPP (built in thing). Downloading drivers for printers is a Windows thing, in my experience.
These repos are targeted towards red hat enterprise linux, which is also dnf based, but has vastly different versions of packages than fedora, and is a much more stable distro.
The same way you wouldn’t want to mix apt repos of different distros, you wouldn’t want to use repos designed for Red Hat, for Fedora.
Nvidia does seem to provide Fedora repos, but I would recommend following Fedora’s official docs and getting them from rpmfusion, unless there is something you specifically need from Nvidia’s repos.
Because fex/box86 have the ability to run arm binaries linked to x86 libraries, netting signficantly greater performance. In addition to other tricks.

Who let him cultivate immortallity? : https://www.novelupdates.com/series/who-let-him-cultivate-immortality/
It’s a parody/satire of all of the tropes common in Cultivation/Xianxia, and it’s making me laugh a lot. Though, I think it will be more amusing if you are already familiar with lots of the tropes.
Practical Guide to Sorcery (I think it counts as progression fantasy?)
Same here. K8s makes stuff like this so mucb easier, since you can declaratively control traffic flow via NetworkPolicies.
And with cilum you ca use hubble to visualize whay traffic is currently happening, in order to figure out what is actually needed.
I also use Cilium as my host based firewall instead of ufw/firewalld.
But what makes canvas soul suckingly tedious? Why do we seem to disagree about canvas UX and UI?
what alternatives are there? I’ve only actually heard of google classroom, moodle (FOSS) and blackboard? Most people I’ve met who have tried one of those have liked canvas better.
I’ved used google classroom a bit but it sucks.
Do you use canvas as a teacher/institution?
I’ve used canvas, but only as a student student, and I really, really like it. The UI is excellent, and I do notice the addition of things like bigbluebutton.
Do you have more info about various shady practices?
Canvas is the best. It’s entirely open source, under the agpl license.

They have generally been pretty good when it comes to adding features, and security practicws. But sometimes you just lose (to shinyhunters).
No, this is kinda right. Memory leaks =/= memory safety. Memory leaks are just when you keep allocating more and more memory, and can be done in any language. If I make accidentally make a list that infinitely grows in python, that’s a memory leak.
There are techniques to write code that is mostly free of leaks, which is what he is referring to.
Memory safety, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to be mentioned on that page…
You’re using unreal engine and not unity engine.
When your app is written in C++ and rewriting it is too expensive.

when it comes to the website, odoo is probably the most comprehensive solution.
But tbh, the technical architecture of this whole setup is beyond what a beginner ,ay be able to host. You should consider hiring a consultant or contacting an MSP.

3rd comment: re: secure voting
The big thing behind secure voting, is not just is it secure, but also can you actually get people to use and trust it.
Sure you can have public key cryptography, signed messages based electronic voting, but “create a gpg key” is pretty difficult to get the average user to do.
And if you didn’t know what any of those terms here, that only proves my point about people not knowing how these systems may cause them to not trust them.
Don’t fall into the trap of inserting technology for technology’s sake. You can do insecure email based voting (or chat app based), but the easiest thing for your sanity might just be paper ballots.

You probably don’t want a lemmy instance. Of course it depends on the company, but lemmy is designed to federate out. Unless you want it to federate out?
I would recommend discourse or similar instead, they are much easier to host.
You architecture seems to blend technical and management in an unclear way. It’s strange to see “lemmy server” and “staff roles” in the same chart. Unless by staff roles you mean a software that manages staff roles? But “managers”?
Woops it was a slip of the tongue. Keyboard?
