• Build a Symfony 7 boilerplate using FrankenPHP, Docker, PostgreSQL and php 8.4

  I use the Debian Bookworm based image since I don't recommend using the Alpine one, the perfs seems a little less stable and fast. This is related to the musl libc library and JIT AKA just in time compilation used by php core, more information here on the official Frankenphp document. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• More storage for media : organize files using ChatGPT : part 2, converting JPEG to HEIC

  I will use docker image of ffpeg on alpine and I'm skipping steps as you can get this information from the internet search or generative AI, I'm using the ChatGPT as no login is required and most of readers will be able to reproduce my steps. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Installing Debian bookworm without systemd

  Anyway, if you're after a distro that doesn't use systemd and is a joy to use and tinker with, take a look at Alpine [0]. It is a lot more compact and faster compared to other distros for using Musl instead of Glibc, which means you may find software that has not been ported yet, however so far I've installed it also on mini PCs and laptops with great results. 0: https://alpinelinux.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• well... thinkpads are awesome

  ThinkPad keyboards? Just plain amazing. Typing on one feels so good, whether you’re writing essays, coding, or idk writing an angry reddit rant about some SAAS product you didn't like, and the battery life holds up, especially with lightweight operating systems like AntiXLinux. Sure, you’ll need to do a bit of research to pick the right model, but once you do, you’re set and as per the people at r/thinkpad, the... - Source: dev.to / 18 days ago

• Ask HN: What is a good small Linux for education

  & https://github.com/kisslinux 4. https://puppylinux-woof-ce.github.io/ 5. https://www.plop.at/en/ploplinux/index.html .. Many more, but those are all too distro-specific, meaning 'family' and associated administration and packaging tools, default choices for desktop-environment, and whatnot else. Which teaches you almost nothing about 'Linux', but the specific choices of that 'distribution', and all the baggage... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Attempt Q4OS install on Netbook, BUT "unable to install grub in /dev/sda"...solutions?

  Maybe try installing a different distro, as it could be an issue with the installer. EXE GNU/Linux is very similar to Q4OS Trinity, alternatively there's antiX, for example. You would at least be able to see if it's a general problem or just one installer. Source: about 1 year ago
