I have a PC that came preloaded with 10.

It is over 5 years old now. It still has not seen Linux yet, but that is because it has not seen power.

Just for spite, I wiil wait until after the 10 EOL before I install Debian.

Can't seem to satisfy some of the PHP library requirements, namely IntlChar, IDN, OpenSSL. I read somewhere that installing openssl covers PHP libraries for same. Is this true? What about IntlChar and OpenSSL? Does php-intl cover IntlChar?





stopped supporting the i386 architecture recently claiming again and again that there's no more new 32bit x86 hardware to buy despite this was never true: vortex86.com/ produces 32-bit only x86 CPUs and SoC for at least a decade now. 😢😠

This is how you do it.

More people need to leave too.

The Debian Publicity Team will no longer post on X/Twitter. We took this decision since we feel X doesn't reflect Debian shared values as stated in our social contract, code of conduct and diversity statement. X evolved into a place where people we care about don't feel safe. You are very much invited to follow us on bits.debian.org , on micronews.debian.org/ , or any media as listed on wiki.debian.org/Teams/Publicit… #debian


Even completely headless, command line #linux doesn't prioritize #accessibility in any way. Today I had to reinstall an entire #debian system from scratch because a drive listed in my /etc/fstab died. That makes #systemd boot into emergency mode, where you get no SSH, no network, no sound, and no screen reader. There is no quick way to force it to try and boot even though drive 7 of 11 has died, and it could absolutely bring up SSH and the network to let me fix it if it wanted to, just like sysvinit used to do. You can't even force systemd to add SSH and the network to emergency mode because of circular dependencies. nofail will only continue the boot if the drive doesn't exist, but if the filesystem has issues...emergency mode for you. In short: if your drive dies on Linux, fuck you. Be able to see, or reinstall your entire system, because nobody in Linuxland gives a shit about #a11y or your needs.
