I'm adding automatic Mastodon tooting to my CentOS Stream Updates script. Scripting Mastodon posting on the server is much easier than Twitter.

Another successful auto-post!: CentOS Stream 8 Updates: November 10, 2021 :: CentOS Stream of Consciousness http://centos.passthejoe.net/posts/2021_1110_centos_stream_updates/

This blog post on CentOS Stream briefly talks about torrents before it runs clear off the rails. http://centos.passthejoe.net/posts/2021_1107_centos_torrents/

My script that automatically runs CentOS Stream updates is now working ... I think. It's not ready for me to open-source just yet, but I will work on it. http://centos.passthejoe.net

TIL that Linux is OK with date --iso-8601, but only date -I works in FreeBSD.

CentOS Stream 8 Updates: November 5, 2021: This was supposed to be an automatic post, but I'm still shaking bugs out of the script. It's only a little ironic that my host runs FreeBSD. Maybe more than a little. http://centos.passthejoe.net/posts/2021_1105_centos_stream_updates/

I am writing a server-side blog-generating script, and since it's meant for a Linux/Unix server, I'm writing it in Bash, not Ruby.

Now that the CentOS Stream updates blog is on its own subdomain, the next steps are to decide if I'll put other CentOS content there (likely) and to automate the package-update posts. http://centos.passthejoe.net

The CentOS Stream updates site is now on its own subdirectory. It looks just like my other site b/c I'm lazy that way, but it is its own Hugo-generated blog. http://passthejoe.net/centos/

A whole lot of @CentOS Stream 8 updates are waiting for you today

In an ideal world, my Twitter-style posts appear here. But the interactivity of Twitter means that this site is more "me." In many cases, that's OK.

The excellent bootable-USB-creator @fedora Media Writer is available for all Linuxes via Flathub https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.fedoraproject.MediaWriter

I filed a new bug in Fedora EPEL: 2015259 – Neofetch now requires catimg, which isn't packaged for EPEL

@RedHat @fedora @CentOS @AlmaLinux @rocky_linux https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2015259

gThumb, the best image viewer and editor on any platform, is now available in a Flatpak for Linux users. https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.gThumb

Debian and RHEL/CentOS are very different animals. While Debian is behind several MONTHS on Chromium, more due to dysfunction than anything else, Debian Stable is holding back on the new Firefox ESR, which has been in CentOS Stream for at least a week. That part is probably intentional.

CERN looks at @AlmaLinux, @rocky_linux, @CentOS Stream and @RedHat Enterprise Linux and decides to go with Stream 8 https://indico.cern.ch/event/1070475/contributions/4511844/attachments/2309304/3929738/lfc03-20210915-NoNDA.pdf

Today's CentOS Stream 8 updates include a notable upgrade: The Firefox ESR browser goes to 91.2.0.

Not a review of CentOS Stream 8 - Steven Rosenberg/passthejoe.net http://passthejoe.net/posts/2021_1006_not_a_centos_stream_review/

I installed the @vivaldibrowser on two systems — one @fedora, the other @Windows. I already had it on my @CentOS Stream 8 system. For me, sync is table stakes, and Chromium's removal of that integral feature closed the door on both it and Chrome. https://vivaldi.com

There are a whole lot of @CentOS Stream 8 updates waiting for you today or tomorrow

Chromium 93 migrated to @debian Testing today. It hit Unstable on Sept. 19. Still waiting for it to appear in Stable. FYI, last Stable update was 90.0.4430.212 on May 21. For those keeping track, Chromium 94 just came out (and is already in the Flatpak). https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/chromium
