If that's the case, then you should answer the OP with how it's set up. OP is specifically asking how to do it with random drives other people hands them, not trusted drives always connected.

What is the disaster that could happen you’re referring to?

Auto mounting random USB sticks has never been wise. No telling what random malware they contain.

I work at a microsoft based company and I am running Linux on my machine after getting approval from my IT security people.

I do need to set a couple of things up, for my machine to still be compliant with the company policies.

So far that is:

  • Enrolled in Intune (via microsoft's intune portal app)
  • Full Disk Encryption (pretty standard these days)
  • Microsoft Defender Endpoint (a requirement many companies have)
  • Strong passwords that's changed pretty often

But whether you are allowed to or not, really depends on your IT department and the company policies.

Only a select few games where made available for Linux. Loki helped a lot, but it was no where near the options we have today.

This new release does seem to solve some long standing issues people have had with nextcloud for a while. Like great performance improvements and Federated Chat with Nextcloud Talk.

And improving Circles and renaming it to Teams seems like it's only gonna be really useful for Businesses. But I do hope that some smaller organizations can get some use out of it.

All in all, I think this release is great, if what they said in the announcement is true. I don't care much for all the AI additions, but I understand why they are doing it.

Sounds like you have a general issue with permissions on your filesystem if you can't even write the compose file.

Have you set up docker stuff before?

I had a Dell back in the day (like 20'ish years ago) and I had the same experience on the Windows install it came with. Sad to hear that they just switched the issues over to Linux from Windows. :(

While Linux TTY is multiseat by default, each TTY is a seperate user login, I'm not sure any of the GUI's support this function.

I know of PRIME, which can be used to offload work to dedicated GPU's.

I'm a KDE Plasma user and it's using Noto Fonts by default IIRC. So that's what I use.

It's a matter of opinion and lots of it depends on your preferences.

Github: Where most developers are and therefore has the best network effect. Easy for new contributors. Gitlab: Got some traction after Microsoft bought Github, but is very similar, just not as popular. Codeberg: Completely open source (I believe) it's the option with most respect for your privacy. Lacks the network effect until fediverse integration is complete, which I do believe the platform is working on. Cgit: A very simple git repository viewer. You can't do anything from it, except see the repository. Some big projects use this, like the kernel.

There are more options, but some gets very specific after this.
