Re: [Industry] How did you become a Linux Administrator?

Very good question! Unfortunately it is a bit complicated as it really depends on your discipline or area of focus.

Re: [Off-Topic] f-droid app - Rethink

F-droid.org has it's own forums, I think you get better answers there. The OP is not that technical of a post that they need to be re-directed elsewhere. I use Android and from our last 'Which Mobile Vendor device do you use?' Survey it seems we have a fair amount of Android users, it can be surmis...

Re: LUKS+TPM2 unattended boot on Debian 12

After posting this, I managed to get things working by this guide which works using dracut and actually removing the entry from /etc/crypttab: https://blog.fernvenue.com/archives/debian-with-luks-and-tpm-auto-decryption/ Still curious if anyone has opinions on this approach or others. Your OP was v...

[Discussion] So ... is anyone mining crypto currencies? (or folding?)

Just curious with a few questions. Is it worth it? With the size and introduction of large scale and professional entrepreneurs with DataCenter sized infrastructure has the time to mine already passed?

Every time the general public is allowed access to a bot this happens, one of the reasons behind the AI/Developer fracture at ChatGPT was the battle between the letting AI free group and the AI needs restrictions group which played out publicly. It is becoming glaring obvious some restrictions are n...
