Depends on use case and the country. I use Mullvad and Riseup VPN and something private (and Tor). Sometimes when a site has Mullvad in Europe blocked, it works when I try one of their servers outside of Europe. In my experience Mullvad is awesome, and you can try it for one month. And Mullvad, the no nonsense VPN provider, has had the same prize since years! (And no discounts like Proton trying to get you sign up for a year or more trying to keep you with Proton).
They are not pioneers, they are Microsoft funded group (at the beginning, at least)
In the beginning in 1997 GNOME was a direct response to KDE using Qt toolkit with a license that GNU with RMS did not like at all. Not sure why you mention Microsoft and funded ? When I search for it I see that M$ gave 10K to GNOME in 2022, more than two decades later.
Thanks
Actually, i thought about merging rdo and ssu, both a bit over 100 loc in C.
Found ssu here : https://github.com/illiliti/ssu Can't find rdo. What is it ?
I think the progress we’ve made on driverless vehicles is pretty amazing and I really want to live in a world where they work - but we’re not there yet and some idiots are under the impression we are.
Who is the "we" you mentioned three times ?
No worries. When I saw the image on Mastodon I thought I did not get it but still looks funny.
- "RunAs" is apparently the Windows equivalence of sudo in Linux.
- Administrator in Windows == root in Linux.
- Furries are popular among some users on the Fediverse, for reasons.

"First they came ..." (German: Zuerst kamen sie ...) is the poetic form of a 1946 post-war confessional prose by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984). It is about the silence of German intellectuals and clergy — including, by his own admission, Niemöller himself—following the Nazis' rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets, group after group. Many variations and adaptations in the spirit of the original have been published in the English language. It deals with themes of persecution, guilt, repentance, solidarity, and personal responsibility.
The project is based on CSS and HTML files. I guess deploying would mean putting it in the right place (Say : /var/www/html/) and using it with your web-server software or at your hosting provider.
Indeed useful to not having to share passwords. I think sudo historically started as a way to let some users in a company for example manage printer server settings without having a root password. (And I believe it was Ubuntu in 2004 which promoted sudo and forced the default user after an installation to use sudo to perform root commands).
Exactly, and governments and companies need to acknowledge that privatizing health was a very bad idea to begin with. People deserve the best health support in this "crazy" world.
And what can we do to make the Internet a more safe and privacy friendly place and replace the ad business by something less unpleasant ?
I've tested the Beta of Ubuntu 24.04 and during the installation it bailed out as well which I've never seen before.
Normally the installation disk has Try and Install mode. If you go for the Try mode and then choose install you should be able to navigate to the log files and check the contents which can give you an idea of what went wrong.
There's other flavors of Ubuntu, like Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu. Try one of them and see whether the same error happens. After you would successfully install for example Xubuntu you can use apt to install the
ubuntu-desktoppackage which is a meta package which will install the default GNOME of Ubuntu. Then proceed to remove the XFCE4 packages and you're done.
