Administering a Linux system often requires knowledge of managing user sessions, especially in multi-user environments. There may be instances where you need to force a user logout due to system maintenance, high resource usage, or security reasons.
Docker is an open source application similar to a virtual machine. It is used to simplify the process of automation of applications deployment with its runtime dependencies within Linux containers. Containers, which work independently from the host operating system, enable users to perform quick application deployment, troubleshooting and maintenance with improved security.€
Everyone comes into their personal computing situations in different ways. For me, a lifelong Windows user with a powerful primary laptop that needed a lightweight and quick secondary laptop, I gravitated toward a Chromebook. But whether you're a seasoned veteran of this platform or the other and you've brought a Chromebook into your life, you might be looking for ways to tailor the experience to your needs and habits — we've got some tips for that.
A Docker Registry is a local system that acts as a hub to upload and download Docker images. The Docker Registry is a repository of the images that you made or downloaded.
The Docker Registry will be available to all systems on the network with access, as well as having a key and the user knowing the username and password.
Software development has evolved significantly over the years, and Docker has become an essential component for modern software development. Docker is a platform that allows developers to create, deploy, and manage applications in a containerized environment. It provides a standardized approach to building, shipping, and running applications across any infrastructure.
Docker has revolutionized the way software development is done by providing a lightweight, flexible, and portable way to package, deploy, and run applications. Docker containers encapsulate all the necessary dependencies required to run an application on any platform.
In our digital era, where data has transformed from being an auxiliary resource to becoming the lifeblood of businesses and organizations worldwide, the concept of databases isn't just technical jargon anymore. Instead, it's now an integral part of our everyday lexicon.
WordPress is one of the best open-source CMS platforms that allow publishers easily post articles right from the desktop browser and if you are using its Desktop application then you even don't need a browser.
Docker is a powerful tool that has revolutionized the way software developers package and deploy their applications. Docker simplifies the process of creating, deploying, and running applications by providing an efficient way to package all the necessary components into a single, portable container.
In today's fast-paced software development world, streamlining the build process is essential. It is important to ensure that your builds are efficient, reliable, and consistent. Streamlining the build process can save time and money, as well as reduce errors that can impact deployment.

Docker images are a vital component of containerization. They are the building blocks that make up Docker containers, and they contain all the necessary files, libraries, and dependencies needed to run an application in a container.
Developers who are new to Docker may feel overwhelmed by the seemingly endless possibilities of containerization. Dockerfiles provide a simple, straightforward way to create custom images that can be used across different environments, making it an essential tool in the containerization process.
In today's modern technology landscape, Docker images have become an essential tool in the world of software development. These images are built on top of a lightweight container system that allows developers to create portable and scalable applications with ease.
Docker is a powerful tool that allows developers to build, test, and deploy applications in a consistent manner regardless of the underlying infrastructure. Docker works by leveraging containerization technology to package all of the application's dependencies into a single self-contained unit that can run on any system with Docker installed.
If you're familiar with containerization, you know how Docker has revolutionized the world of software development by making it easier to build, ship and run applications. One feature that enables this is the Docker Registry/Index, which serves as a repository for Docker images.
Virt-manager still appears to be the most powerful tool in regards of deployment and managment of KVM guests. Also sometimes it seems to be more functional rather then Cockpit Web console, in my very personal opinion. In particular, it allows to configure some features required by Windows 11 KVM Guest in the most recent builds of Fedora Linux 38,37.

""After 1 year, 9 months, and 28 days of development"", Debian 12, codenamed "bookworm", has been released. The announcement has lots of details about package versions for desktop environments (6 are supported), kernel version (Linux 6.1 series), other package versions (compilers, graphics tools, office suites, languages, and more), architectures supported (8 for real hardware and 5 for cloud services), blends, and lots more.
ROS 2 release Foxy Fitzroy was released on June 5, 2020. Foxy was a major milestone in ROS 2 development and was the first ROS 2 release with a three-year long-term support window. The name Foxy Fitzroy references the Fitzroy River Turtle, Rheodytes leukops, which is endemic to the Fitzroy River in Queensland, Australia. The “foxy” adjective describes something that is cunning and shrewd, like how foxes are depicted in many cultures around the world.
I've been using desktop Linux since before many of you were born. Seriously. I first ran it when I downloaded the source code from Linux kernel developer Theodore Ts'o's MIT FTP server in 1991. So, when I say it's time to wave bye-bye to using package managers such as apt or dnf and replace them with containerized package managers such as Appimage, Snap, or Flatpak, I do have a clue about what I'm talking about.
Before going into why, let me give you a quick refresher on application installation on Linux. In the beginning, there was the source code. We downloaded it, built it, and compiled it. You can still do it that way today, as in this example of how to install Node.js v8.1.1 to your Linux desktop.
Most people don't do it that way because it's a pain. Only developers build from source code these days. The vast majority of users use package managers. For users, they're easy whether you use a GUI interface such as Linux Mint's Software Manager or a shell-based package manager such as DPKG, Pacman, Yum, and Zipper.
iWave adds to the iW-RainboW-G50M family: The Solderable NXP i.MX 91-based LGA System on Module (SoM). The SoM incorporates the newest member of the i.MX 9 applications processor series and is built on the OSM v1.1 solderable SoM standard, providing extensive interfaces in a rugged and compact form factor.
The PinePhone and PinePhone Pro are smartphones designed to run mobile Linux distributions. While they ship with builds of Manjaro featuring the KDE Plasma Mobile user interface, there are a whole bunch of other operating systems designed to run on the phones.
For the past few years, developer megi has been offering Phinephone multi-boot disk images that allow users to quickly try out a range of operating systems with a single microSD card. Now megi has found a way to prepare a single microSD card so that it can be booted on both the original PinePhone and the PinePhone Pro. That means soon you may be able to test out a bunch of different mobile Linux distros on both phones using a single card.
Large online platforms can help us connect with others, shop, work, and express ourselves, but they also play a key role in the spread of disinformation, discrimination against marginalized groups, romance scams, privacy violations, and other online harms.

Character encoding is the process of converting characters to numbers and back, typically for digital storage and transmission.
You’ve probably heard of ASCII, which maps 128 characters to numbers. For example,
W

.As you might expect, there are more than 128 characters in the world. Characters like
ñ
and🥺
can’t be represented as ASCII.Unicode is like ASCII, but instead of 128 characters, there are 1,114,111 characters. Way more! That lets us store characters like
ñ
(character #241) and🥺
(character #129402). It’s a little more complex than this, but that’s the rough idea.Here are a few examples from the big Unicode table: [...]

Despite major advances for women over the past 100 years—the invention of the contraceptive pill, greater access to safe abortions—much of female biology is still woefully underserved by science. There are reasons for this, most notably the historical exclusion of women from medical and pharmaceutical trials, partly because our awkward hormone cycles were thought to skew results. There’s also the fact that some scientists still project findings from research on men onto women, seeming not to realize that women aren’t just small men: Women are different down to the cellular level, meaning that many of our immune responses, experiences of pain, and symptoms (including, for instance, those that accompany a heart attack) may be different from men’s. Are you having a nasty, unexpected side effect from your medication? That could be because most drugs were developed with male bodies in mind. A 2020 review of 86 common medications, including antidepressants, cardiovascular drugs, and painkillers, found that women were likely routinely overmedicated and suffered adverse reactions nearly twice as often as men.

The case, which concerns the former President’s handling of classified documents, raises complicated questions about intent and national security.
The reported federal indictment of former President Trump is once again casting a light on the gulf between House and Senate Republicans,€ with GOP senators proving far more willing to break with the ex-president.
Zoom in: Some senators are even praising the Justice Department or seizing on the indictment to boost Trump's primary opponents.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump faces 37 criminal counts that include charges of unauthorized retention of classified documents and conspiracy to obstruct justice after he left the White House in 2021, according to federal court documents made public on Friday.
Donald Trump improperly stored in his Florida estate sensitive documents on nuclear capabilities, repeatedly enlisted aides and lawyers to help him hide records demanded by investigators and cavalierly showed off a Pentagon “plan of attack” and classified map. That's according to a sweeping felony indictment that paints a damning portrait of Trump's treatment of national security information. The first federal case against a former president cuts to the heart of any president’s responsibility to safeguard the government’s most valuable secrets. Prosecutors say the documents he stowed, refused to return and in some cases showed to visitors risked jeopardizing not only relations with foreign nations but also the safety of troops and confidential sources.
The criminal indictment unsealed by the Justice Department against Donald Trump includes allegations that the former president stored classified documents in a bathroom and shower at his Florida club and suggested his lawyers conceal the presence of some documents. The indictment also accuses Trump of showing off the documents to people without security clearances and acknowledging that he didn't have the ability to declassify documents after he left the White House. The indictment says Trump told his attorneys he was “an open book" on the same day that his valet secretly loaded several boxes of documents on an aircraft.
