• Installing Debian bookworm without systemd

  Anyway, if you're after a distro that doesn't use systemd and is a joy to use and tinker with, take a look at Alpine [0]. It is a lot more compact and faster compared to other distros for using Musl instead of Glibc, which means you may find software that has not been ported yet, however so far I've installed it also on mini PCs and laptops with great results. 0: https://alpinelinux.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• AWS is asleep at the Lambda wheel

  ×You can deploy your own arbitrary base images to Lambda, for example images based on Alpine or Debian Linux. To work with Lambda, these images must implement the Lambda Runtime API. Source: over 1 year ago

• Fix rustup failed with "error: linker `cc` not found" on Alpine Linux 3.17 (Rust 1.66)

  Alpine Linux offers Rustup package as well as Rust. I built the development environment with Docker. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Does it make sense to try to install / maintain a gentoo system in a vm for learning more about Linux?

  Gentoo could provide an easy way to learn about init systems other than systemd. But in practice, coming from Arch, Artix is probably a better choice for most of the alternatives except for OpenRC (Gentoo or Alpine is better for that) and the traditional LSB init.d setup (where Devuan is really the only practical option anymore). I’m specifically mentioning Artix here because it is Arch, just with proper support... Source: over 1 year ago

• Freenode has had an entire reset

  Holy fuck, what happened? How did Freenode get hijacked by some little twerp whose manifesto is some shit about dRaInInG tHe sWaMp and muh maximum liberty zone? Source: about 3 years ago

• Freenode commits suicide, is no longer a serious IRC network

  Some hints (root is rasengan): jane_doe: hint the freenode network is its own sovereign state https://freenode.net/#canceling-cancel-culture-or-why-anonymity-is-important. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• On Freenode, Libera, and the r/sysadmin IRC Channel

  The servers were volunteer hosted under no binding agreement, staff were volunteers who never signed any contracts (christel was the only paid person). "freenode" the informal organization existed LONG before "freenode limited" the legal corporation. It would be very VERY hard for "freenode limited" to claim freenode's name as a trademark. However, they own the DNS registration. Despite efforts to be informal... Source: about 3 years ago
