linux

<p>We had an event last night at a low income housing community here in Olympia. We brought some Nixbooks, gave them away and showed people how to use them. </p><p>These people are NOT technical and still all said that Nixbook was far easier to use than any other computer they had used in the past.</p><p>All these laptops were headed for the scrapyard, but now thanks to Linux are out there changing peoples lives. :)</p><p><a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#linux</a> <a href="/tags/nixbook/" rel="tag">#nixbook</a> <a href="/tags/recycling/" rel="tag">#recycling</a> <a href="/tags/ewaste/" rel="tag">#ewaste</a></p>

Another thing is, in <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> and also <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a>, using <a href="/tags/efibootmgr/" rel="tag">#efibootmgr</a> to change <a href="/tags/uefi/" rel="tag">#UEFI</a> boot entries is quite handy. But it is not available for <a href="/tags/openbsd/" rel="tag">#OpenBSD</a> and <a href="/tags/netbsd/" rel="tag">#NetBSD</a> . However seems NetBSD has got something cooking already in -current and it is called efi.<br><a href="/tags/usebsd/" rel="tag">#UseBSD</a> <a href="/tags/runbsd/" rel="tag">#RUNBSD</a> <a href="/tags/bsd/" rel="tag">#BSD</a> <a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a> <a href="/tags/unix/" rel="tag">#UNIX</a><br>

<p>Hey <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#linux</a> people and <a href="/tags/developers/" rel="tag">#developers</a>, I need your advice. </p><p>My 8 year old son has fallen in love with this old laptop that honestly isn&#x27;t useful for that much as the speed and wifi is so slow.</p><p>But he says he wants to learn how to code on it. </p><p>This brought me back to the days of GW-basic when I was a kid. </p><p>Is there something like gw or q basic for Linux.

So I read a bit on <a href="/tags/slackware/" rel="tag">#Slackware</a> <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a>. but still curious. Is the Slackware does not handle dependency statement true? Or is it just not handled by default but if you use some third-party tools you get dependencies resolved apt/pacman style? Also related to this, I saw videos / tutorials on installing the systems, so it is generally recommended to simply install tons of packages you might not need in the first place just so when you need them or any other thing that might need something there as dependencies and you will have them already? Seems like trying to do a one-thing-fit-all style to me.<br><br><a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a> <a href="/tags/unix/" rel="tag">#Unix</a> <a href="/tags/fediask/" rel="tag">#FediASK</a><br>
