        Feren OS: An Almost Flawless Linux Computing Platform

        Feren OS might well be the Linux computing game-changer that lures you away from your current operating system.

        Feren OS is based on Linux Mint 19 and the Cinnamon desktop environment that Linux Mint devs developed.

        So pretty much it’s Debian > Ubuntu > Linux Mint > Feren OS?

        So pretty much a nope.

          I wonder how they base on Mint, but do a rolling release? Something is odd there.

            The news says that, but their website claims otherwise.

              Fedora 30 officially due out on Tuesday (we are already using it in some non-critical places) and RHEL 8 is expected to be announced the following week.

                How long does it normally take for centos 8 to be released after RHEL?

                  Docker Hub Hacked – 190k accounts, GitHub tokens revoked, builds disabled

                  "On Thursday, April 25th, 2019, we discovered unauthorized access to a single Hub database storing a subset of non-financial user data. Upon discovery, we acted quickly to intervene and secure the site."

                  During a brief period of unauthorized access to a Docker Hub database, sensitive data from approximately 190,000 accounts may have been exposed (less than 5% of Hub users). Data includes usernames and hashed passwords for a small percentage of these users, as well as Github and Bitbucket tokens for Docker autobuilds.

                    Well when CentOS 7 was released, RH didn't' own it. So I would say this time is anyone's guess.

                    RHEL 7 was June 10, 2014
                    CentOS 7 was July 7, 2014

                        Yes, it is. That's what an LTS distribution is, all of them. Old as sh**.

                            Looks like that could be useful.

                                Awk utility in Fedora

                                Fedora provides awk as part of its default installation, including all its editions, including the immutable ones like Silverblue.
                                But you may be asking, what is awk and why would you need it?

                                  The sim swap the US isn’t using

                                  Foreign phone carriers share data to stop SIM swap fraud; US carriers drag their feet.
                                  Around a year ago, André Tenreiro was called into a meeting between the chief technology officer of the phone carrier he worked for—one of the largest in Mozambique—and an executive of the country's largest bank.

                                    Fear the Man in the Middle? This company wants to sell quantum key distribution

                                    The future of VPNs may be fighting quanta with quanta.
                                    When reviewing the WireGuard VPN last fall, one of the things that came up was WireGuard's support for an optional, additional PSK (Pre Shared Key) layer of security.

                                        Beats’ Powerbeats Pro earbuds will ship on May 10th for $250

                                        Preorders start just a few days from now on May 3rd
                                        There was a ton of reader interest in the new Powerbeats Pro, which are the first true wireless earbuds coming from Apple’s Beats brand.
