My first LUG in a million years will be the February meeting of the MUG. I'll cover a bit of what AlmaLinux's history has been, and some of what's next. Come check it out, if the eastern US timezone is convenient for you! https://mug.org

benny,

@StampedingLonghorn clearly it's time.

@rust Hey all! I'm responsible for @thisweekinrust and would love to get our account moved over to yours to make our account more accessible. Is that something y'all would be okay with? If so, let me know what the next steps are!

In case you hadn't heard, is back, and now hosted at @hackaday! It was great chatting with Jonathan and Katherine this week: https://hackaday.com/2024/01/03/floss-weekly-episode-764-you-have-to-be-pretty-cynical/

Do you love open source, but aren't a developer and don't know how to support it? We could use some help in the Marketing SIG with event organization, social media posts, blog post curation and reviews, and website updates. The kicker is that none of these require coding experience or even a desire to learn!

Even if you don't come to help us out, find a project you love and offer help with all of those sorts of things. I promise they'll put you to work.

Did you know has a repo for things that aren't in RHEL or EPEL? They remove packages from it if it hits EPEL, but if you've ever wondered what desktop would be like on EL9, AlmaLinux has you covered! It'll also automatically enable EPEL and CRB for you when you enable it!

benny,

@philbaker1 @passthejoe Hi you two! I'm looking for folks who are doing interesting/fun things with AlmaLinux to share their stories on the AlmaLinux blog. Would you have any interest in that? There's one scheduled to publish next week from @vwbusguy, and I'd love to be able to post one a month or so.

benny,

@philbaker1 honestly that sounds super interesting to me! You could talk about the workflow, and why you chose what software you chose. Scott's post is live now, and gives you a general idea of one potential format, but you could also do a 'if you want to do this, too, here's how you get started' walkthrough-esk post. I'm open to all kinds of ideas! https://almalinux.org/blog/2023-09-26-almalinux-jupyter/

The adventure continues on.

benny,

@vwbusguy I legit needed this pep talk last month. While I got mine from my partner, I hope it hits someone else at the time they need, too. <3

benny, to opensource

I'm excited to join again this weekend! It's been 13 years since my first talk at this event, and I'm hoping this weekend will be just as good as that first one. My session is at 10am on Saturday https://olfconference.org/2023-schedule/#OhioLinuxFest

Thanks, LiveJournal… I certainly needed to know it was my LJ’s 22nd birthday.

benny,

@JSkier Me either, honestly. Soooooooo many words from a younger, dumber me.

benny,

@JSkier oooooh, no, she was just dumb. But you’re right, experience is what taught me, and it’s nice to see how far I’ve come in the meantime. I’ve thought of deleting it a few times, but I’m such a digital packrat!

This is the power of the community. 👏👏👏 https://fosstodon.org/@jonathanspw/110737535355529123

    benny,

    @passthejoe thanks! We work really hard for that.

    benny,

    @vwbusguy thanks, friend. ♥️♥️

    benny, to RedHat

    I’m excited to share that I’ll be joining other leaders in the industry at FOSSY in Portland, OR this week to discuss the rippling effects of last month’s Red Hat Enterprise Linux changes. See you all Friday Morning! https://2023.fossy.us
