For many years I installed Fedora from scratch (almost as if my PC was a Linux container and then added a kernel setup) to be exactly as I wanted it no cruft, no bloat. I did that with other distros as well, Debian didn't recommend SELinux.

Last year I installed it from scratch using the installer and that included SELinux. With changes in SELinux policy, I found an installed flatpak which successive iterations didn't like SELinux or tried to operate outside it. Fixing it was easy but I didn't do so until I understood why it was violating.

I had unknowingly subscribed to the FUD about SELinux, I doesn't get in my way. Maybe I'm not as elite as I thought I was!

Isn't it strange that when you believe in an oligarch, they never disappoint.

Just film it. Paying porn actors is not illegal usually, but take the camera away and ..

Ceph?

Everyone does it. Every year of so we gather everyone we know together to commemorate.

Zoho mail has a domain hosting platform for email. About £60 pa in dollars for my setup. Pricing varies on the number of accounts not the number if domains. I have two accounts, personal and business, and a control admin account. The domains I host vary according to the businesses I run. I funnel each domains email to one of the two accounts and reply with the appropriate domain easily. Personal email is masked with Addy.io mostly.

They deal with the email very well. There was a time that they really didn't and the system went up and down like a tarts knickers.

The front end is ok. They play with it a lot and there are many screens pushing some shit or other before you actually are allowed to get to the inbox. The inbox setup is excellent with all the expected functionality and toys and many toys appearing monthly.

Typical of Indian continent companies, as a Brit who has spent much of his life frustrated on the phone to "Dave" from Mumbai with a really really thick accent, Zoho don't really seem to understand concepts properly, so their passkeys setup doesn't work with Bitwarden. TOTP 2FA cannot be just pasted in (from Bitwarden again) because they've tried to be flash with the input field and one has to click on a specific place first. The support team try really hard, but their ability to grasp the problem and fix it is lacking before some other buzzword catches marketing's attention and they add yet another screen to click through or subvert the problem somewhere else. Their help knowledge base is enormous, well documented but unorganized and they don't archive stuff that has been superceded, so be careful.

That said I've been using them for well over a decade and have no plans to change.

Running your own mail server ceased to be a hobby thing when RBLs came in. Use a provider with the resources to do the hard/cumbersome stuff.

I'd give Zoho mail an easy 7/10. And it's cheap. Zoho invoice is great too.

I don't know but that was my immediate reaction.

If it runs Windows it'll run Linux almost certainly. The cheaper you go, the more likely you'll have lower priced or older components for WiFi, Bluetooth etc which may mean that you have to dig some firmware binaries out to get the whole thing running.

If you can take a USB stick with you of a typical Rescue distribution, and can boot it up, you'll know what will and won't work easily. The bits that don't work may need some minor fiddling. As I said, there are usually walkthrough blogs etc around.

Have fun.

Isn't that an unwritten given by now? If not why not?

Top Hat. It isn't a sex aid, millennials. I know you haven't seen them before.

Each time period (week, year etc) is a smaller proportion of your life.

Anything that happened when I was much younger can't be resolved easily to the nearest year, unless I can identify a specific immutable event like a specific birthday.

Rishi Sunak and Keir Starma, to name but two.
