  • Ah I see. If I was unable to moderate it is there solutions for that?

  • What is your most useful Linux app which others might not know about (please don't just give the name but a link and why it is good for you) ?

  • Cool Retro Term unless your actually running ELKS on an 8086 or happen to be reading this off a VT05 attached to a PDP-11.

  • I have an orange-crab running Linux right now for an entirely auditable system up to that point and something reasonable secure but yeah I have not made the time to crank out some software/drivers for a screen, keyboard, and Internet.

    I have a clockworkpi uConsole with the R-01 RiscV board and a cellular modem that works great but again we're back to square 1 since I couldn't find much auditing done on the chip and I have not personally opened up any of mine. Although if my memory serves me right the sister core (XuanTie C910) had some holes in it so I guess it's good someone looked at part of the family at least and published it. Also if I'm not mistaken the modem has an Arm in it running who knows what too like any other modem. The only auditable modem firmware I know of is the one for the pinephones.

    Within the rabbit hole, I think I'd trust anything between:

    • My own, or some other people's, discrete transistors or vacuum tubes and diodes.
    • Most hardware made before ~1985 Ofc, running entirely FOSS.

    Idk what the upper limit is though I'd like to know.

  • Does this even count? Not even running on an open core written to FPGA using Foss tooling 😉

    Just wanted to say my experience running a Librem 5 was amazing until I realized my social groups are religiously against texting or using anything besides Snapchat.

    Also ran a PPP for a while but it seemed harder to stabilize for me at the time.

    Been running FOSS everything else except for some firmware, bios, microcode, silicon, etc for many years now with no complaints. Sometimes I purposely chose hardware that is supported though so I suppose I have tailored my experience.

  • Linux continues its rise in Steam Survey

    Jump

  • It's a shame more developers don't target Linux! Anyway I have been Steam gaming on Linux for about 10 years now and it's amazing how good games targeted at Windows run through Proton. I have many games that are targeted for Windows and run BETTER on Fedora.

  • Some services I have liked in the past are:

    • Syncthing if you have some storage space
    • A backup server
    • Websites and Demos
    • i2pd and your own i2p website/blog
    • Monero mainnet and Haveno
    • Crypto Mining to support the network not to make money (Limited to a small portion of your resources)
    • Game Servers
    • VNC on some virtual machines for a networked device
    • A remote containerized development environment

    But there are all kinds of things you can do with some continuous computation and networking!

    Biofuel Resources

  • Is it possible to create energy for our daily use ? Is such technology available ?

    Jump

  • I was going to say I grew sugar beets for yeast culture and ethanol production as well as canola for lubricants and green diesel. Every climate has something you can grow for fuel and machinery lubricant. Yeilds will obviously vary depending on experience, land, climate, etc. some good resources are JTF Biofuel Library and Energy.gov

    It's also worth noting Syngas production in some sort of gasifier with almost anything is a super easy way to produce fuel too.
