@radkolumne

Ein folgerichtiger Schritt, aber wichtiger wäre mir persönlich, daß es auch auf meinen #Linux-Devices (#Debian, #Mobian) liefe. Nur Google Android oder Apple iOS ist für mich ein Ausschlußkriterium, da ich solche Gerät nicht habe(n will).

@kolev

I'm mostly avoiding anything that's not in #Debian 😉 I.e. I almost exclusively use Debian main, including #Emacs and it's various modes and other packages.

#Debian or #Trisquel #GNU / #Linux users, do you use the #Emacs package of your distribution, or do you build Emacs from source?

#AskFedi

Debian would like to thank particularly its MiniDebConf Hamburg 2026 Partner Sponsor PRESENSE Technologies, its Extended Sponsors Collabora Productivity, Sipgate, Canonical and Siemens, as well its Basic Sponsors B1, Freexian, credativ and DG-i https://hamburg2026.mini.debconf.org/sponsors/ #debian #MiniDebConf #MiniDebConfHamburg2026 #04

#Question: Which #freeSoftware #inventoryManagement or #assetManagement are people using?

Just some lab equipment and similar assets, nothing fancy. Needs support for scan codes (#QRcode). Must be web based for a small team. Needs to run on #Debian.

@dbat

I use #Debian as my one and only OS since the mid-1990s.

At the moment Debian 13 #trixie (stable) at work and Debian 14 #forky (testing) at home.

Works for me.

Disclosure: I'm a volunteer Debian developer in my spare time.

Hey Fedipeeps, is Debian an okay choice for modern desktops?

Does it still have ancient versions of programmes on the repos?

Does it at least allow Flatpak for up to date software?

Can one play Steam and games on it with nvidia drivers?

Does it support two monitors?

What are the downsides?

Ubuntu going ai is making my skin crawl..

What are the sane distros going forward?

#Pregunta a la gente en #Argentina: Apagaron #Claro o #Movistar las redes 2G ya en diciembre 2025? Como es la situación de 2G en 2026 en #CapitalFederal, #BuenosAires, #SantaFe y #SantiagoDelEstero?

Importante para saber que tipo de #móvil me compro antes de viajar a #DebConf26 😉

¡Gracias de antemano!

@argv_minus_one

When I started using #Debian, it's #icon was a #chicken or #Penguin #baby.

Somebody on YouTube posted “DEBIAN 13: I could actually use it as my desktop, now!”

Heh. I've been using #Debian on desktop since version 1.2. Or maybe 1.1. I forget.

The now-famous #Debian spiral logo came out several years after I started using it. I was quite excited when I saw the announcement of the new logo!

As I recall, the Debian logo when I got started was just “Debian” on top of a grid of black lines.

MiniDebConf Campinas 2026 (Brazil) is back today at the State University of Campinas for a full day of activities. Check out the livestreams starting at 12:30 UTC: https://campinas.mini.debconf.org/ #debian #debconf #miniDebConfCampinas #brazil #04

Another era seems to have ended today: I just removed package svn-buildpackage.
No maintainer is using vcs-svn: in debian/control anymore.

@Zugschlus

Habe in der Firma #borgmatic auf allen Servers installiert. Auch sehr #geil, wie es #PostgreSQL und #MariaDB bzw. #MySQL direkt ins Backup streamt. Empfehlung.

#Debian #borgbackup

Wenn Du vor einem Monat auf ein paar Testsystemen borgmatic installiert hast, mit dem Gedanken "das machen wir jetzt erstmal händisch, die Automatisierung später.

Und Du dann ein paar Wochen später mit dem Gedanken, das Backup mal wieder händisch zu starten, auf die Maschinen kommst, und denkst. "jetzt machen wir mal die Automatik"

Und feststellst, dass das #debian-Paket das längst täglich automatisch für Dich erledigt hat. Ohne dass es irgendwelche Probleme gegeben hat.

Muss jetzt das Restore testen.

MiniDebConf Campinas 2026 (Brazil) starts tomorrow at the State University of Campinas. Full schedule is available here: https://campinas.mini.debconf.org/schedule/. Most of the talks will be streamed online. #debian #debconf #miniDebConfCampinas #brazil #04

We are in the countdown (T-10 days) for MiniDebConf Campinas 2026 (Brazil): the DebCamp preceding the Conference begins on April 20th. Check out https://campinas.mini.debconf.org/ for more info #debian #debconf #miniDebConfCampinas #debianbrasil #brazil #04

The last day to submit proposals for MiniDebConf Hamburg is April 15th 2026: if you wish to contribute, you have eight days left! https://hamburg2026.mini.debconf.org/contribute/cfp/ #debian #MiniDebConf #MiniDebConfHamburg #04

Yeah, I just removed package cdbs from Debian Unstable. Thanks to all who made this possible!

#debian #unstable #package #removal

Building only arch:any/all Debian packages:

• dpkg-buildpackage: -B/-A
• pbuilder: --binary-arch/--binary-indep
• sbuild: --no-arch-all/--no-arch-any
• apt build-dep: --arch-only/--indep-only

Of course I can't remember all 4 of those pairs so I have to have to look at the man page nearly every time.
