#distribution
Beim Wechsel auf #Linux sind die bisher genutzten Applikationen und Services nur ein Teil der Reise. Der andere Teil ist die Frage, ob die Hardware auch 100% kompatibel ist. Um das vor der Installation zu testen, kann man von dem ISO Image der gewünschten #Distribution einen bootfähigen USB Stick erstellen und den Rechner damit starten, um alles zu testen, ohne zu installieren. Für die Erstellung des USB Sticks kann Etcher genutzt werden: https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/releases/

Sometimes I realize I've been using Debian instead of Windows for years, and it makes me really happy.
It's not just because I love Debian, but also because I haven't had to deal with Windows 10 for so long.
I hate Windows because you can't change much of the system-level stuff, and if you remove "explorer.exe", the system basically stops working.
On the other hand, with Debian and most other Linux distributions, I can choose the environment I want to work in myself.
I love options, I love freedom.

TUXEDO OS: "(...) probably one of the best Ubuntu-plus-KDE distros."
@thelinuxEXP uses our TUXEDO OS distribution on his TUXEDO devices, but highlights that it can be installed & used on other hardware as well.
Today at work, I created a piece of code that should #partition a stream of data entities based on some string keys of unknown format. The only requirements were that the same key must always be assigned to the same partition and the distribution should be approximately uniform (IOW all partitions should have roughly the same size). My approach was to apply a non-cryptographic #hash function to the keys (defaulting to #xxhash3), XOR-fold the hash down to 32 bits and then take this as an unsigned integer modulo the desired number of partitions.
I normally only code my private projects (as a software architect, I rarely have the time to touch any code at work, unfortunately), and there, I'd certainly test something like this on some large samples of input data, but probably just once manually.
But for work, I felt this should be done by a #unittest. I also think at least one set of input data should be somehow "random" (while others should contain "patterns"). My issue is with unit-testing the case for "random" input. One test I wrote feeds 16k GUIDs (in string representation) to my partitioner configured for 13 partitions, and checks that the factor between the largest and smallest partitions remains < 2, so, a very relaxed check. Still doubt remains because there's no way to guarantee this test won't go "red" eventually.
I now see several possible options:
- just ignore this because hell freezing is more likely than that test going red ...
- don't even attempt to test the resulting distribution on "random" input
- bite the bullet and write some extra code creating "random" (unicode, random length within some limits) strings from a PRNG which will produce a predictable sequence
What do you think?
The latter option kind of sounds best, but then the complexity of the test will probably exceed the complexity of the code tested. What features do you feel are needed for #Parch #linux as an #Archbase #distribution ?
I plan to add #openzfs
@rooster thank goodness #emacs runs on every #distribution .

#Hackers #Steal #Trump’s #ShadyVance (#JDVance) ‘#DirtyLaundry’ #Dossier As 2016 Strikes Again
This follows the #distribution of #anonymous #emails, originating from an #AOL #email #account, to #Politico #reporters contained a 271-page #research #dossier concerning #Senator #Vance that appeared to be a draft version, dated February 23, of a #vettingfile for the #vicepresident pick.
So #Mastodon needed a good #introduction toot to help find me #friends here.
By profession, I am a computer #programmer. I prefer #linux over any other #system software. My first #distribution was #Ubuntu 
but for a few or more reasons I have settled with #Fedora 
On top of that I have been using #Gnome as my main #desktop #environment since 2006.
I highly admire Al-Khwarizmi and Al-Kindi for their contributions to modern #science and #technology.
Now what about you?
Hallo #Linux Bubble 
.
Ich hätte gerne eine Empfehlung für eine #Distribution .
Aktuell nutze ich noch #Ubuntu mit #KDE , also #Kubuntu .
Allerdings möchte ich nicht mehr auf die nächste LTS Version upgraden und suche einen Ersatz.
Ich hatte an das letzte #Debian gedacht, bin mir aber unsicher, ob das so unkompliziert läuft. Bei KDE möchte ich unbedingt bleiben.
Ich bin eine pure Nutzerin. Installation, Hardware und Drucker werden erkannt = fertig.
Bei #Fedora bin ich mir noch unsicherer, da es ja wirklich halbjährlich upgegradet werden muss und ich das scheue. Außerdem brauche ich es nicht sooo aktuell.
