VirtualBox (desktop for testing and development [Vagrant]), KVM: libvirt, Proxmox (production stuff).

Btrfs’ grandperson.
It needs a time to fully understand all features and quirks.

Depends. Slower desktop machines XFS.
Standard desktop XFS, if it has a smaller SSD, Btrfs.
Home server ext4/XFS + ZFS. Generic servers at work ext4/XFS, backup/storage servers ZFS.
Database server, experiment with ZFS with compression enabled - ratio 2:1, but encountered problems (probably a bad HBA model), standard ext4/XFS.
Hosts with virtualization, small server - XFS, big server - ZFS (technically a ZVOL).

Ex CS student. I’m on 100 % Linux, even back then.
Huge advantage in the Linux/Unix, networking labs.

The main issues were Matlab (Octave is kinda ok, but must be tested before you submit your project),
FPGA simulator - Altera (no alternatives, but it can be run on a Windows VM),
3ds Max - must be run on bare-metal Windows (maybe GPU passthrough to a VM will work),
some old weird software,
C getch() on Linux.

No problems with MS Office, I can run whatever I want, just exported it to the PDF.
No heavy formatting in drafts helps with a group project.

I think there is no a out-of-the-box solution.
You can run security updates manually, but it’s too much to do.

Try to host apt mirrors in different stages, with unattended-updates tuned on.
Devel will have the latest.
Staging the latest positively tested on the devel.
Production the latest positively tested on the staging.

In an ideal world, there should be 3 separated environments of the same app/service:
devel → staging → production.

Devel = playground, stagging = near identical to the production.

So you can test the updates before fixing production.

How to remember 35 digits?

If you surprised why it has a PowerPC CPU. It’s actually a SoC.
From the manual:

AMCC PowerPC 405 32-bit RISC processor core operating up to 333MHz with 16KB D-and I-caches.

Designed specifically to address embedded applications, the PowerPC 405EP (PPC405EP), provides a high-performance, low-power solution that interfaces to a wide range of peripherals by incorporating on-chip power management features and lower power dissipation requirements.

I think imapsync will fulfill your needs.

Zakopane, Poland. Greedy bastards.

Former zsh user. fish works for me.
For scripts I use bash tho.

Happy cake day!

Early versions of Ubuntu,
Red Hat before RHEL,
Mandrake/Mandriva.

I thought a power comes from the ASICs.
Linux is just for a software layer.

A trolley problem probably.

Does Steam count SteamOS as Linux?
Or they track only PCs?

Be aware. Some external USB drives, like WD Elements, have built-in USB controllers. So they don’t have a SATA connector.
