I just created my own "PartEdMagic" USB. The original won't boot on Secure Boot machines and the new Dell laptops no longer have a legacy boot.
1 Xubuntu ISO, 1 USB drive, and a custom script to run "shred" on a designated drive and create a log of what it does.
Done.

PSA: If you have Steam on Linux, you might need to change the .desktop file's exec key so it's "steam" and not "steam-runtime" if there's a .desktop for it in "~/.local/share/applications". It must've changed in an update recently.
Linux providing a better gaming performance than Microsoft Windows is no longer of any kind of anomaly

" We have people all over the world and so we are not subject to any particular legal jurisdiction. "Well, that's not how the justice system pretty much works, anywhere. If push comes to shove, legally, somebody has to be responsible somewhere. You can't claim you are a stateless and lawless organization.

New day - new Raspberry Pi brought back to life 
This one probably fell down because it had no shorts, all voltages from DA9090 were present, but it didn’t start most of the time - it did once but then I spent quite some time trying to figure out where is our issue.
Reflowing CPU and RAM chips must have helped
Windows 10 will no longer receive free software updates, technical assistance, or security fixes after 14.10.2025.

If you're having trouble with OBS where it just won't get anything and the log says it's getting a corrupted buffer from pipewire, then check for updates in your Flatpak thing because there could be new stuff even if you just updated.
BSI gives tips on the end of support for Windows 10
Germany's highest IT security authority recommends changing or upgrading the operating system after support for Windows 10 ends.
bonjour les internets !
Dans le cadre de mon *travail* pour imprimer des *patrons* (entre autre) je cherche une imprimante laser noir et blanc.
Est ce que vous auriez des recommandations, budget 150€ avec les caractéristiques suivantes :
- facilité de ne pas utiliser le toner constructeur
- fiable
- pas de connexion internet, j'ai même pas besoin d'une connexion wifi pour l'ordinateur
- connexion filaire en usb du coup
- prise en charge par gutenberg (le truc de linux pour gérer les imprimantes)(je suis sous arch linux) avec prise en charge du niveau d'encre (enfin le truc qui fait pareil pour une imprimante laser)
- pas besoin de scanner mais si ça rentre dans le budget d'en avoir un je veux bien
j'ai vraiment pas beaucoup de besoins, tant que ça imprime
Je vais aussi chercher de mon coté mais si votre imprimante rentre dans ces critères je veux bien la référence ^^
Merci l'internet !

BSI gibt Tipps zum Support-Ende von Windows 10

Shoot. Proton Drive isn't available for #linux There is my first hick up. On the other hand: I already planned on pulling out on cloud drives all together. Most of what I save there, is already on multiple external harddrives anyways, since I dont use my internal hd for other then program files. Makes a format c much easier. :)
Gibt es ein Tool unter #Linux, das warnt wenn Prozesse Tagelang 100% CPU brauchen? Ich habe da so eine Maschine die braucht im Idle fast keine Energie. Aber wenn ein Prozess abgeraucht ist und dieser 100% CPU braucht würde ich das gerne auch ohne Temperaturmessung erfahren.
