Debian is good for this. Enjoy it while there is still 32-bit support though. Edit- do you have any swap configured?

Had she not accepted it, I’m sure they would have found someone else willing to accept their kind donation.

Not guilty, m’lud.

It’s unfortunate that they missed out on Trade Union recognition at the Coventry facility recently. I’m sure GMD (or others) will keep on trying though.

Lizteria. Is that Lettuce hysteria?

I had to check if it was one of Tim Martin’s but apparently it’s a Stonegate, and recently refurbished too.

BBC already have a Mastodon instance but it doesn’t seem to get much use.

I class myself as having similar experience to your friend having used Power Basic and Turbo Pascal mainly under DOS. I was able to use tkinter to produce some simple gui front-ends to produce dialogue boxes, process data and feed it to GnuPlot.

Is it people that want to switch away from Windows or switch to Linux?

In my case it was the former, having spent a lot of time on FreeBSD so in 2007 I bought a Macbook Pro running OSX 10.3. This gave me most of what I wanted and when I needed something Windows (XP) specific I installed a VM running under Parallels, then Virtual Box. I was able to run most of the open source software at that time such as Open Office, Firefox, Thunderbird in preference to the Apple supplied apps.

I hate it when someone sends me a PDF form and tells me I can complete it using Acrobat (or whatever it’s called this week). Last one I successfully completed with the Firefox PDF ed.

They run a full distro rather than the minimalist that Docker containers use. You can also use them to run gui apps but that needs a bit more work to configure. I run Google Chrome sandboxed this way.

I’m sure they quoted one instance of a holiday home owner donating all surplus food at the end of their stay.

Even so, some visitors donate. Wallis says a Swiss couple give £500 each year. People ring and ask him to collect excess food from their holiday cottage when they leave.

If I’m running another Linux distro that will be happy under the host kernel then I use LXD (or Incus) containers. Otherwise it’s QEMU+KVM or occasionally Virtual Box.

Does it matter what front end it uses if the underlying environment is QEMU+KVM. Upvote for tha above.

Add official gov.uk statement on this.

The MOD is committed to undertaking all necessary planning and environmental processes required to gain planning consent for the proposed site and for its safe operation. A comprehensive Environmental Impact Assessment (including a Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment) is underway in support of our planning application to Pembrokeshire County Council and their granting of planning permission is conditional on DARC meeting all the required safety standards.

He (and his platform) are a distraction. There are more important things happening that people are missing.

I don’t follow former twitter links but if I did - would I be rickrolled to a Drifters song? EDIT - safe link - https://archive.is/Kvskx

Life before snap.
