It’s ok, I prefer my colon without Open Sores.

If you want Debian with more frequent updates, consider going Debian sid. Base Debian is also fine, maybe with Flatpaks for more up-to-date applications where needed.
Oh man. I’m so sorry for your loss. May your system break at some vague point in the future in a way that is nigh impossible to diagnose and that no one else seems to have experienced. Godspeed, you unwillingly content penguin!
Just go with Debian.
You can install it on any machine. It’s just a terminal IRC client. I run it on a small home server with screen
so that it’s always on.
I run irssi on a Raspberry Pi. It has everything I need.
They were, but as I understand they are once again independent. I’d still rather stick with Librewolf, but I’m glad there are options.
Well yeah, the recent xz vulnerability was not present in the source code at all. Any amount of code reading would not have caught that one.
Always check the package list when updating. Tumbleweed for some reason occasionally wants to install Patterns even if they were not included to begin with. I’ve taken to updating with the command:
sudo zypper dup --no-recommends
to avoid installing packages/patterns I’m trying to avoid. You could probably also mask some packages so they are never installed, but I haven’t looked in to that.
Hope that helps.
Disappoint is a sober word here. I am actually pissed at the casual arrogance of Ubuntu and its parent company Canonical.
I’m actually baffled that this would come as a surprise to people. Canonical has been like this for a long time and you’d have to have blinders on to not see it. They are hell-bent on doing things their way and ignoring the wider Linux community and even their users. That is, of course, their prerogative and to some degree I even welcome their attempts at differentiating their distro from others. As a user though you should be aware of their history and the apparent direction they’re heading.
I just wish they’d stop stalling and went all-in on snaps already, since that’s pretty obviously where they’re headed.
The last time I remember Firefox having serious memory leaks they called it Firebird. Guess I’ve been lucky. Or in a comfortable ignorant haze.
Oh hey, I remember that screen. I have seen it many times. Many, many times. Oh God, so many times.
Back in the day when I was running Gentoo, in the long long ago, Firefox was one of the few things I installed as a binary, since compiling it took hours. Compiling it every time there was an update would have driven me crazy. From what I gather this is still true for most users. Yeah, go for the Flatpak if at all possible.
I’m going to be a bit cheeky and say Pulp by Charles Bukowski.
Mandrake. After that it gets hazy, but Mandrake was first.
I’m going to go with a classic and recommend Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky.
UK is still a member of the Council of Europe and ECHR. It’s confusing, but those are distinct from EU, which the UK is not a member of anymore.
I bought Tales of Maj’Eyal from GOG and have been playing the Linux port. Yeah, I’d say it’s my favorite. Even if I hate it sometimes.
