EU OS: A Fedora-based distro 'for the public sector' in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] m33@theprancingpony.in 2 points 1 hour ago

@notanapple The more I read the docs, the more I think it doesn't matter, they are poking around an EU distro. Nothing more, for now it is a proof of concept, not entitled to produce anything production ready

@ScotinDub I would say because it helps corporate adhesion, but no, they have no clue it's just a POC for now eu-os.gitlab.io/goals

@Ephera OpenSUSE is first to come to mind, then probably Mageia + OpenMandriva (Mandrake derivatives).
All these EU opensource initiatives looks really good, but I fear that they may just be trying to pump taxpayer money and produce actually nothing usable.

@SpiceDealer Sorry, what ? How can it be made in EU if it's a Fedora fork/derivative ?

Which antivirus do you use in your homelab? in c/homelab@lemmy.ml

@Numeral3 ClamAV is the goto option, it helps finding bad files on windows shares and mailboxes

The "list of wrong anthem incidents" on Wikipedia is hilarious to browse through in c/funny@sh.itjust.works

@nikqwxq550 I was about to advocate for the flatpak packager-maintainer being a random guy volunteering for the job. But no, it's official flathub.org/apps/org.torprojec…

Unexpected benefit of Linux Mint relative slowness following Ubuntu releases, as they like to keep a safe pace and make things working right before releasing new versions : it aligns with enterprise in c/linuxmint@lemmy.ml

@Diplomjodler3 I’m not really sure the corporate laptop is their main objective, but yes.

Unexpected benefit of Linux Mint relative slowness following Ubuntu releases, as they like to keep a safe pace and make things working right before releasing new versions : it aligns with enterprise software surprisingly well.

Enterprise software are even slower to update, meaning the network shared printer drivers, corporate Zero trust client, email server connector, antivirus (as in paid, licenced av agent) does works perfectly.

Mint sits right in a sweet spot about both corporate bloatware and OSS.

Help: How to set up the portable LibreWolf as a default browser in W10? in c/librewolf@lemmy.ml
[–] m33@theprancingpony.in 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

@Flmaker Oh, I see. So you will need something like registering librefox standalone exe as if it was actually installed the usual way.

Like many others, I’ve been looking into internet browsers lately. This guy has put together a pretty extensive comparison: pctips.com/best-browsers (theprancingpony.in)

Upgrading from a Pi4 to NUC clone? (theprancingpony.in)
 

Hello there,

I’ve been running a little army of raspberry pi and libre computer lepotato for many years now.

Sometime died of overheating, one died because the microsd card failed so hard that some kind of electrical shock took off the whole pi.

I’m looking at this trend: replace that with a single or a 2 node cluster of mini pc.

The point is I still want to consume as less electricity as possible. So low TDP CPUs <10 to 15W is my most important criteria, then 2 disk bays (don’t care about the form factor or connector).

Reading buyers comments on Amazon indicates that cheap Chinese mini pc have their ssd dying quickly, or their motherboard, or their power supply, sometimes in months, not even a year.

Would you please recommend a low power mini pc please ? It may be Chinese but from a reputable brand (which I fail to determine).
