I'm so sorry to say it, but today @linuxjournal closed down for good. As you can imagine we are all so sad that this is the end. You can read my final goodbye here:

Have you seen this list of alternatives to Amazon's offerings? Not all entirely free/open, but definitely some options to say "not Amazon"

15 years ago, EFF's @doctorow told Microsoft:

1. That DRM systems don't work

2. That DRM systems are bad for society

3. That DRM systems are bad for business

4. That DRM systems are bad for artists

5. That DRM is a bad business-move

He was right.

@lunduke Bryan, Have you seen this?

distrotest.net/

Any thoughts?

Is there an easier way to test a distro without setting up a full Virtualbox VM?

@lunduke Show idea:
Do a show on mobile hardware and how it differs from typical desktop/laptop computers. Also: Why one can not install any desired OS on mobile devices like the aforementioned hardware.

Personal resolution: search for video content on Peertube/LBRY before jumping straight to invidio.us

Suggestion for Youtubers: upload your content to other platforms as well as Youtube, and encourage your viewers to watch you there instead.

As viewers, we can vote with our views by watching our favourite content creators on those platforms, and if possible make small donations to compensate for the lost ad revenue.

In this free Linux Journal ebook, @kylerankin expounds on some of the lessons he's learned through the years that might be obvious to longtime sysadmins but may be news to someone just coming into this position.

It is interesting to note with the recent issue that derivatives such as Palemoon and Waterfox did not experience any problems.
Is the Ubuntu of browsers? The derivative works give a better experience than the original

Question for @lunduke (others can weigh in also): Did Microsoft join the Linux Foundation to kill the Linux Desktop? They have already had to cede the server room so is this a way to make sure that they do not also lose the desktop? Windows is still a big business but shrinking as users move to other platforms (mobile, etc) as move apps move to the cloud and are therefore platform agnostic.
