Let's all hope that Fedora dies. Redhat/IBM is already owned by BlackRock.

Best Laptop for Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Kali isn't meant to be a desktop OS. Use it only in VM or in a spare rig. It is meant to be a toolbox. So dual boot it with your daily driver OS or use in a VM.

Your Mac can take Linux just well: https://djharper.dev/post/2020/06/07/running-linux-on-my-macbook/

For your 300 bucks budget look nothing else than Thinkpad T480 or HP Dev One. T480 will need replacement batteries if not replaced yet.

Format drive if wrong decryption key is prompted? (sopuli.xyz)
 

Is there a possibility to make Linux install automatically delete the data if wrong decryption key is set x amount of times?

Would be nice too, if it started automatically to overwrite the data too even full disk overwrite takes a lots of time.

I tried to google docs, but I don't know the right words.

SystemD is blamed for long boot times and being heavy and bloated on resources. I tried OpenRC and Runit on real hardware (Ryzen 5000-series laptop) for week each and saw only 1 second faster boot time.

I'm old enough to remember plymouth.service (graphical image) being the most slowest service on boot in Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04. But I don't see that as an issue anymore. I don't have a graphical systemD boot on my Arch but I installed Fedora Sericea and it actually boots faster than my Arch despite the plymouth (or whatever they call it nowadays).

My 2 questions:

  1. Is the current SystemD rant derived from years ago (while they've improved a lot)?
  2. Should Linux community rant about bigger problems such as Wayland related things not ready for current needs of normies?

There's an app called BlackHole, but the music library it provides is very small and oriented in music from India.

Why everybody creates their own project instead of joining the current ones? Bus factor is a good measure in any small project.
