History of #Linux Project (HOLP) is an open-source, collaborative effort, and to be cultural association, aimed at illustrating the history of Linux by using a timeline with colorful cards and images. Each card in the diagram represents a core event in history that contributed to the creation of Linux and to what Linux is, today.

Linux-Install-Party

"Wie viele sicher schon mitbekommen haben, endet im Oktober 2025 der offizielle Support für Windows 10. Viele Geräte können nicht auf Windows 11 aktualisiert werden, weil sie die neuen Hardwareanforderungen nicht erfüllen. Microsoft bietet nun auf Druck ein weiteres Jahr Updates an, dafür muss man sich mit einem Microsoft Account für das ESU-Programm registrieren (ESU = Extended Security Updates).

Das Jahr kann genutzt werden um Softwarealternativen auszuprobieren, zB LibreOffice statt Word, Excel und PowerPoint. Eine andere Möglichkeit ist, direkt Linux zu installieren. Linux ist ein freies alternatives Betriebssystem. Wir helfen gerne beim Umstieg und hoffen damit Elektroschrott verhindern zu können

Also, is anyone using #Infinigen in a #Linux environment?

If so, are you a wizard?

Hi, I'm smart and regular and know a lot about computers, so haha no problem, but is there kind of a basic recipe haha for how you get @Winboat to run #Terragen just so I can use it to make fun of noobs obviously.

Haha.

😬

#Linux #Winboat

#Linux #community hasn't been the most dynamic for #onboarding others or making it easier (coming from #Windows it's a high bar)

BUT these things have helped more visibly / consistently:

➡️ dual booting (via #usb)
➡️ #dualbooting (#live booting / no install)
➡️ Tutorials and individuals

Any other things have helped most?

What other things have helped more than #DualBoot and individual #help online?

Does anyone out there know of #Linux alternative to VirtualMIDI Synth? I used it often when playing MIDI files with different soundfonts on Windows but I have yet to find a suitable replacement.

I'm well on my way on my #Linux journey now.

I bought a new tower and wanted nothing to do with Windows 11 (that comes pre-installed).

Linux Mint: wouldn't install. Had worked very well on two older computers.

Ubuntu: installed, but weirdly. Not usable. See link.

Zorin: installed cleanly first attempt!

Pretty psyched to get this tower loaded up and ready to go as my new primary computer.

Next: install Crossover as a means to use an older version of MS Office.

Hey, #Linux users —

I want to verify my initial download of Cinnamon Mint.

My understanding, though, is that once you have Linux installed, updating apps and updating the OS itself is as easy as clicking a button somewhere?

The question is: if safest practice is to verify the initial downloaded image, how does one (or does one) verify the simplified updates?

If not, why not? Wouldn’t OS updates be as susceptible to bad actors messing with the code and faking an image as the original download was?

Just trying to clarify it for my own peace of mind.

There is nothing funnier than putting out community calls for action only to run into other folks calling for the same thing.

Hahaha!!!

I put out a feeler for starting up a Linux Installation Party in a local town message forum and a person mentioned they were interested in starting one up.

I DM'd them and started introducing myself only to find out its a friendly librarian who runs the local library's makerspace.

Hahahaha!!!

I love this town.

🧠📚 Been deep in the weeds refining my APA 7 student paper template—fully accessible, screen reader-friendly, and powered by LaTeX + Makefile automation. It’s designed for blind students, accessibility advocates, and anyone who wants a clean, reproducible academic workflow. Note that it doesn't use the apa7 class since that wouldn't allow the PDF to be tagged for accessibility.

✅ Includes:

• Automated PDF builds with BibLaTeX
• Submission and status reporting targets
• Sample references. Bib
• Screen reader-friendly README

Built and tested across Raspberry Pi, Fedora Remix, and openSUSE with WSL integration. If you’re navigating academic publishing with accessibility in mind, I made this for you.

The birthplace of #Linux is #Finland, and 16% of its desktop users are from there. I don’t think so it is a coincidence.

the reason why you probably want to stop using the Ubuntu Linux 24.04 LTS supported release for your personal project is because of stuff they pull with "esm-apps". I think I will stick with Debian or FreeBSD and call it a day. #linux

With so many folks exploring Linux (hi #Windows10 peoples<3) or just #DistroHopping, I have to share a massive quality-of-life tool: Ventoy.

It's an opensource tool that sets up your USB stick once. After that, you just drag-and-drop multiple ISO files (Linux, Windows, BSD, etc.) onto it like a normal drive.

When you boot from the USB, Ventoy gives you a menu to pick which ISO you want to run.

No more re-flashing your drive every single time!
