Clamav is ok to use for scanning files for malware. If you want something to detect behavior you can use Falco or tetragon to log events on your system. Those systems are best used if you send them to centralized log system but that’s complete overkill for personal use

I use evolution and it’s great even on kde

I use fedora and Ansible to fix things I want to be different all the time. After I install the OS I run Ansible pull and it makes all the changes I want

I use evolution and it works well for everything besides my work Gmail but that has more to do with security policies than evolution

All my configs are in gitlab or a self hosted forgejo server and all files are in seafile or a self hosted service running on proxmox. Then I use proxmox backup server on a storage VPS for off-site backup

Cockpit has an update manager built in and has the ability to setup dnf automatic

Depends on budget but if your budget is above $800 get a framework they are awesome and work great with Linux if your budget is below that look at an e series Thinkpad or used thinkpad on eBay that fits your budget

Both USBC ports work fine for charging and USB but they do not work with my thunderbolt doc

I have loved my AMD framework . 3:2 aspect ratio took awhile to get used to but I love it now. Only thing I need to figure out getting the USB c ports to work but everything else has worked flawlessly

It’s possible it could be a local firewall that is reaching out to their cloud for lists of bad IP addresses or domains or a local firewall that is configured from a cloud interface. The other case is it could be web application firewall or WAF which where a company intercepts traffic, drops malicious requests and forwards it to your actual web server

I tried a couple of times but prefer fedora over redhat on lab servers and desktops. Fedora is easier to upgrade between releases and you get features faster and it’s just as stable. The only time I use enterprise oses in my lab is for things that are picky about the os they run on

Tailscale is the best with netbird in a close second if you want to self host, headscale works great.

Basically every game without anticheat runs on Linux now

The issue isn’t how it’s built or based on its that Microsoft can use its control of the os to make it extremely difficult to avoid it.

AI is worse than crypto. Most crypto projects use proof of stake which is way more resource efficient than mining. Also the mining that does happen usually happens where there is excess generation instead of azure datacenters

I believe mods tried this and reddit purged the mods when subreddits only allowed John Oliver images.

I want to try alpine out but the lack of systemd support is a blocker since I don’t want to add openrc support to all my Ansible playbooks that rely on systemd services and timers

Usually in the observability space it is primarily based on the volume of data and sometimes seat count. Especially if it’s freemium like elastic where users can get an idea of volume by running a POC of the free version. Companies do this because of small teams who deploy large infra that would make contracts unprofitable
