In case you have not done so yet, surf the Wave of the fossify organization, check which of these applications are good for you, since they have no ads, they are free and open source and they are Good at One thing, just like a proper Unix program

Woohoo a new version of GhostBSD distro is out along with another choice of DE Gershwin!

In case you have not done so yet, you should play around with Open Camera and advanced Open Source camera program which will unlock features of your camera hardware you didn't know existed.
I've tested the program on all of my current androids

@stefano it works fine here on the Raspberry Pi 5
Maybe the difference is that this system runs on 64 bits {OS/ DDR4 memory}
With firefox running using 4 open tabs, Debian ARM uses just 2.08GB (1GB=1024MB) of RAM. It looks like I should just browse in ARM linux on the SBC
I have something else to be thankful for today. At this moment in time I am busy restoring functionality on systems so that I will be able to resume important remote tasks, which shall enable me to restore the level that I am used to, when it comes down to actual value of goods
This work is highly specialized and needs a set of computing systems, communication systems which use GSM messaging systems and other means of signalling, in order to properly Act, monitor react and deploy the remote systems, of which a set of those are managed deployed monitored and configured through Proxmox.
@gyptazy has made incredibly wonderful contributions to the community of Open Source and I'm specifically highlighting his work in for example the great Proxmox load balancer.
Through the Work Of Him and other hundreds to thousands nameless Open Source coders, programmers en hackers am I able to do this work.
I am fortunate enough to have virtually met him here on the FediVerse through a beautiful forward that @stefano has made, who also makes great contributions in Open Source
Without the work of these incredible people none of this would have been possible. I would be sitting watching this beautiful scenery that I would have made myself with props
There would not be any Open Source Operating Systems, plural, driving the displays.
Being Grateful is important. Giving Thanks sends a beautifully Modulated Pulse of Energy, through the Universe to everyone.
I am thankful to you all

Just in case you have not heard of it yet Open Camera is a very powerful camera control program

Small but mighty news for UNIX fans:
GNU ed 1.22 is out! Now you can filter specific line ranges through shell commands directly in ed, ex(1)-style:
1,10!sortJust like in ex or sed, this filters addressed lines through your favorite shell tools a great upgrade for scripting and editing workflows.
Even better: Today’s batch of Slackware -current updates already includes ed 1.22. If you’re running -current and up to date, you already have the new version!

This is a screen capture of KDE Connect on one of my Androids.
As you can clearly see my LAN has quite an amount of devices. All of these devices are being used by me.
They have specific purposes which makes my Android experience along with my Computing experience versatile and efficient.
I did not know how important KDE connect was for me. When I learned about it, I knew that it doesn't just enrich what I can do
KDE Connect is not a gimmick where I can control a Media Player, without any network connectivity by itself, from any of my KDE Connect devices. Many different functions can be handled smoothly without any problems, with the highest Speed that my wLAN can deliver from the point of my view of the LAN routers I have in my network.
Right now I'm using a wLAN router that is portable. This enables me to have the most efficient data transfer Speed between the devices I have on me without any snooping from any Big Company.

When was the last time you have played with KDE Connect?
You've never heard of that? Let me enlighten you. KDE Connect is a suite of very handy Network tools, to get the maximum out of the transfer and the control of data & programs between your KDE computer and your Androids.
It is in fact so versatile that even if your KDE computers are not connected, you can still do a lot of things between your Androids which are running the network software suite.
There are so many things you can do you should just download it yourself and put it on your Androids
A few highlights are transferring files between your devices in a transparent manner where no company like Google can snoop anything
Controlling media players from 1 device through all the others.
Getting notifications between different devices and even getting output, graphical output from different devices on others.
Controlling your Android with a mouse from a KDE Connect computer
The list goes on
Note:
If you're running a Linux distro with a running firewall, you have to make sure that your firewall has all the ports open for KDE connect. There are examples of the ports needed, in the docs.
I also have them {for {g}ufw}

Today I read through zfs-allow(8) and spent some time to create the perfect permission set for my experiment. It bothered me that the chmod command in Example 1 was not based on #FreeBSD chmod(1). So I came up with a fancy setfacl -a 0 user:zfsrecvuser:rwxp—aARWcCos:dir_inherit:allow /myrecvzpool/myvmbackup and all that did was to change the “cannot mount” message from “failed to create mountpoint: Permission denied” to “Insufficient privileges” in spite of vfs.usermount=1 in my sysctl.conf. I was frustrated. Then I thought mac(3) could solve my problem until I found out that this would be based on #posix and I probably do not want to change the default nfsv4 acltype of my #ZFS dataset. Then it finally occured to me that I could just chown the directory in question to zfsrecvuser which did the trick. Then I realised that this scary error message did not harm the smooth arrival of my beautiful snapshot with carefully crafted properties anyway. I just had to mount manually with sufficient privileges. Next time I will just use zfs-autobackup. But being aware of some details does not hurt I guess.
Jeff Geerling got the brunt of YouTube wrath when he showed people how to host their own media {media that they legally own, which means that they either have the originals, or have paid for whatever digital version they have} with the power of Open Source tools
Jeff explicitly made sure that he never ever told people how to circumvent subscriptions or worse. Nothing that could harm YouTube bottomline was ever discussed in this video.
Yet for reasons obvious to Open Source people like me YouTube gave him his second strike.
3rd Strike and you're gone. This is how Google / this is how Alphabet is treating their Golden Geeze.
Creators like Jeff are very valuable both to the people who follow them and to YouTube. However Google seems to be at Super odds with Open Source, needing it to run their data centers but hating it because they have to share the code again that they've worked upon.
Google is a paradoxical Company which is being controlled by Alphabet, a schizophrenic Entity drunk on power Ads and control
To me you're a star @geerlingguy keep Shining
