• 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 / 9 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: about 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

• How to create small Docker images for Rust

  Alpine Linux is a security-oriented, lightweight Linux distribution based on musl libc and busybox. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Windows 10 finds Viruses in Kali Linux iso or VM image

  Thanks. It was downloaded from official kali.org website. Source: 10 months ago

• Resources needed.

  Step 1: download the Kali image from kali.org Step 2: burn the image with Rufus app (windows) on a pen-drive (16gb would be a good choice). Source: 10 months ago

• I have 2 versions of python (python3 and 3.11) and i can't seem to uninstall any of them ( i don't run kali on vmware)

  Hi, thanks for the reply (: I just mentioned in the 1st comment above that I actually had some trouble burning the iso into my pen usb since the windows firewall assumed some files as trojan. I don't know if they're really trojan ( and why would an operative system would have been built by trojan since I downloaded it from kali.org ) or if windows firewall is just too above of it's head.

• Desperate for advise! I’m a greenhorn.

  I think you're in over your head tbh. I wouldn't fret about getting haxxed or anything. I mean we could spend all day talking about all the ways you could, but if you got the iso from kali.org and used best practices shown on their website, you'll be fine. Source: 11 months ago

• No gui and unable to fetch

  From what it looks like, you’re unable to resolve http://kali.org so this should fix it after you restart the service from the command I provided above. Let me know 👍🏼. Source: about 1 year ago
