Being someone who doesn't fully understand AppArmor vs SELinux, how well do snaps work on Fedora?
There is nothing "unsafe" about flatpak. In fact for every package on flathub you can see exactly what the "unofficial" packagers do in the corresponding github repository. For example here is the repository for Spotify, if you look at the json manifest file you can see they are repackaging the "official" Snap with the necessary libraries and scripts to support it running as a flatpak. Everything there is open source and able to be examined.
- Food for thought
- Spotify with dark theme titlebar

Are flatpaks that are unverified safe?
If you click on the "Manifest" link for the package on flathub, it will take you to where the code that packages the app resides. There you can review exactly what the packager does in the json manifest. Here's the one for the Spotify client, for example, which shows where it pulls in dependencies and where it downloads the proprietary code from (in this case they base it on the snap) and what commands it executes while packaging the flatpak.

How to get Spotify to launch?
Try installing it via Flatpak
-
Flathub's index now shows you which apps are verified
Flatpaks builds are made to be reproducible. Everything is done openly and you can check how the apps like for example Spotify where made.
- Install software using normal account instead of an administrator account

Problem with spotify install
Why not just use the flatpak?
-
Error about connecting to snapcraft.io showed up while updating spotify flatpak.
Judging by the manifest, the Spotify Flatpak is built from the Spotify Snap.

Damn Small Linux 2024
I was looking for a lightweight OS to run on old Asus Eee PC 1005 HA, which uses a 32-bit Intel Atom N270 processor. I installed Void Linux (https://voidlinux.org/).
I may give DSL 2024 a try and see how it compares.

- Une nouvelle mise à jour de Systemd permettra à Linux de bénéficier de l'infâme "écran bleu de la mort" de Windows, mais la fonctionnalité a reçu un accueil très mitigé

How do I update one of these premade ESP32 boards?
My computer is running Void Linux and it has only a wired network connection. I can hook up my phone for USB tethering if I need to connect to the WiFi of the ESP32. How do I update the software without downloading some shady programs from filesharing site links on my system? I have the Arduino IDE and the esptool.py script installed.

Hyphens, minus, and dashes in Debian man pages
Classic "everyone is using the software wrong, but it's the fault of everyone, and not the software".
Some distros like Void seem to patch this out.[1]
From mandoc/mdocml's mandoc_char(7) [2]
In roff(7) documents, the minus sign is normally written as ‘\-’. In manual pages, some style guides recommend to also use ‘\-’ if an ASCII 0x2d “hyphen-minus” output glyph that can be copied and pasted is desired in output modes supporting it, for example in -T utf8 and -T html. But currently, no practically relevant manual page formatter requires that subtlety, so in manual pages, it is sufficient to write plain ‘-’ to represent hyphen, minus, and hyphen-minus.
Which is the common-sense thing to do.
Meanwhile, GNU projects become increasingly less relevant due to obnoxiousness like this.
In general the amount of wankery of "the correct hyphen" is staggering.

Thoughts on Void Linux?
So I was about to configure a new Archlinux build on my PC and came across Void Linux. I had already read about it a year ago but never researched it in depth. I know that is a Linux distribution made from scratch, with a different package manager and so on. Void Linux users or people who have tried it, what are your thoughts on it? Do you think the PM is easy to use? what about updates and bugs? what desktop or Tilling Window Manager do you use? could you tell me about it?
