fans start rotating for a few seconds and then it shuts down.

That could mean the CPU is getting too warm. Does the CPU cooler still work okay ?

Nice.

RHEL, Ubuntu, & Debian cover the vast majority of enterprise installs I imagine, and provide a solid testing base for developers in the Linux business software space.

Enterprises I imagine are using RHEL, Ubuntu, SUSE’s SLES and Oracle Linux and probably not Debian. But that’s a guess. Where can statistics and numbers be found ?

Also how to mount folders to other folders (option 2) ? (I would really appreciate a GUI way)

The CLI way syntax : ln -s source target

For example : ln -s /media/username/NTFS-folder-Downloads ~/Downloads/NTFS-folder-Downloads (Make sure to omit a trailing / if you are using command line auto suggestion completion).

If you want an answer from other readers about the GUI way : it would useful which file manager (Nautilus, Dolphin, Nemo, Caja etc.) you are using.

Nice

Is OpenSESAME taken already ?

The web link in this post gives a 404. Correct is https://sga.codeberg.page/articles/Launcher/Launcher_for_Everything.html

I think to know that you can query some info from a mailserver to test if an address exists.

For Postfix the default of disable_vrfy_command is : no So I assume you can try it risk free.

A title like “A Terminal Email Client for Gmail As An Alternative To Gmail web: The Old Dog Neomutt And Pals” would be a better fit.

but I rarely see much talk about openSUSE.

Probably because most of the openSUSE users talk in German elsewhere.

There was. Last update 2019.

That howto uses sudo modprobe wl whereas you use sudo modprobe -v b43 Is it possible that the wl kernel module gets loaded ? You should be able to check with lsmod after a reboot.

In such cases on Debian I’ve installed firmware-b43-installer (or firmware-b43legacy-installer which I think depends on the type of WiFi card) package and then run the firmware down-loader from the package once.

After that it would just work after a reboot. Does Fedora have a similar package ?

In the Lemmyverse for self-hosting Immich looks very popular (despite their warning : The project is under very active development. Expect bugs and changes. Do not use it as the only way to store your photos and videos!)

v1.0.3 Latest Fixes

Fixed an issue that led to opening a new Desktop App window when users clicked on the Update button of the Calendar Drawer in Mail. Uninstalling the application on Windows removes user data from the application data folders. The application is placed to a correct application category on Linux. No need to refresh the other application (Mail or Calendar) to apply changes when switching themes.

Back in the day Linux could run from a DOS partition. I think this is no longer a maintained project, but for fun historic reasons : https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/UMSDOS-HOWTO
