NASA's switch to Linux in space was driven by reliability, flexibility, and security concerns. The International Space Station (ISS) originally relied on Windows, but astronauts frequently encountered crashes and instability. In 2013, NASA announced that all laptops on the ISS would transition to Debian, a Linux-based operating system, to improve stability and control over software.

This change wasn’t just about reliability. Windows was much more vulnerable to malware, and in 2007, a worm named W32.Gammima.AG spread to the ISS. With Linux, NASA gained the ability to modify and customize the system for mission-critical applications without depending on proprietary software. Today, Linux powers much of NASA’s space infrastructure, from ISS systems to Mars rovers and beyond.

Marvel Rivals gets a low-quality UI fix for Bazzite Linux gamingonlinux.com/2025/02/marv…

#SSH into #RaspberryPi from Outside Home #Network Using #Tailscale


source: itsfoss.com/tailscale-raspberr…

Its key mechanics include:
* #Mesh #Networking: Devices in your Tailscale network (or "tailnet") connect directly to each other where possible, creating a mesh of encrypted connections.
* End-to-End #Encryption: All traffic is encrypted from one device to another, ensuring privacy and security.
* #NAT Traversal: Tailscale automatically handles NAT traversal and #firewall configurations, so you don’t need to worry about setting up port forwarding or exposing services.
* Auto-Routing: Once your devices are connected to the #tailnet, Tailscale automatically routes traffic between them as needed.

Discovering the #fediverse gives me the same feelings #linux did years ago. The endless choice, excitement of discovery, clash of philosophies and a community.

I spent years #distrohopping from #ubuntu , #arch , #voidlinux , #nixos etc and then back to arch. Also spent a long time switching desktop environments and window managers like i3.

I started on #lemmy and #mastodon . What do I try next? #selfhost an #activitypub server? Which one?

Anybody knows why GS statcounter operating system info for india sees such a huge shift from Linux to Unknown OS in the past four months?

Linux numbers are now less then half the earlier value. Which unknown OS is seeing millions and millions of users? Or is there a bug?

Would love to tag them, but they are not on the fediverse 🤦

As @kde Plasma 6.3 should be released today, here is my look at the myriad of new touches that make this release a very, very polished one;

And since this #Linux desktop also has a sort of "official" laptop in the form of the KDE @slimbook VI, I also tested that in the same video :)

If you are looking to move away from your Big Tech browser, maybe it is time to give Vivaldi a try?

A few things worth mentioning:

1. Workspaces and tab stacks.
2. Tab tiles.
3. Vivaldi Social, Mastodon server.
4. Encrypted sync.
5. Built in tracker and ad blocker.
6. No crypto built in.
7. No AI built in.

Vivaldi is made in Norway and Iceland and our servers are hosted in Iceland.

Surely someone's looked into this: if I wanted to store millions or billions of files on a filesystem, I wouldn't store them in one single subdirectory / folder. I'd split them up into nested folders, so each folder held, say, 100 or 1000 or n files or folders. What's the optimum n for filesystems, for performance or space?
I've idly pondered how to experimentally gather some crude statistics, but it feels like I'm just forgetting to search some obvious keywords.
