A New Anaconda Web UI Installer Coming To Fedora Linux 42 linuxtoday.com/blog/a-new-anac…
in reply to LinuxToday

Does #fedora support the old #kickstart format or some other format that allows for install templating?
in reply to Khronos

@khronos yes. the installer is built so the backend and UI layers are very separated, so this change doesn't actually affect kickstart support really at all.

My wife's last name is also a man's name & it's written on our shopping bag. We moved to a small town & supermarket cashier called me by that name. I said, "No, that's my partner's name." She was supportive & not wanting to appear homophobic, I'm now the town gay man.

@hurt138 Thank you for the feedback! We hope a new generation gets to join us as 'Junior' Developers with this release. :)


I completely understand why error messages are so dumbed down - don't want to frighten the users. However, at least put a 'more information' button so that the support staff can actually have a hope in hell of trying to fix something so nondescript as 'An error occurred!'

The internet really started to go downhill the moment some smart-ass bastard decided that "No" on pop-up dialogue boxes should be replaced with "Not now" when what we really want is a button that means "Never fucking ask me this again."

Bits from the DPL: Dear Debian community,

this is Bits from DPL for October. In addition to a summary of my
recent activities, I aim to include newsworthy developments within
Debian that might be of interest to the broader community. I believe
this provides valuable insights and foster a sense of connection across
our diverse projects. Also, I welcome your feedback on the format and
focus of these Bits, as community input helps shape their value.

in reply to Debian

DPL means Debian Project Leader?

I think it would be helpful to spell that out, it would make it easer for outsiders and newbies who may not know what DPL means. 🙂

Austrálie plánuje zákaz sociálních médií pro osoby mladší 16 let. bbc.com/news/articles/c4gzd62g…
in reply to #TYDEN (Rychlofky)

Toto je zase taká ftákovina...
Ako budú rozoznávať, že som austrálčan?
Pri registrácii? Podľa toho čo vyplním? Podľa IPčky? V prvom prípade budú deti klamať, v druhom použijú nejakú pokútnu proxynu alebo VPN.
Alebo to budú sledovať podľa IPčky neustále? Čo potom zahraniční návštevníci?
Toľko otázok, a to som sa ešte nedotkol toho AKO by prebiehala taká verifikácia? Neviem, či a aký doklad austrálski teenageri majú, ale cpať oficiálny doklad do ľubovoľnej sociálnej siete nie je vôbec dobrý nápad a zároveň sa opäť sa vraciame k tomu, kto všetko bude spadať pod tento "geniálny" nápad.

If children's story books had to pass accessibility testing, so many of them would fail basic colour contrast tests. All should be tested by being read in a dark, dimly lit room. Stop putting black text on dark blue, ffs.
