Debian 12 'Bookworm' is the excitement-free Linux you've been waiting for

Debian

I am running Debian testing MATE since 2011, on 2 pc's and 2 laptops, the only issue I had was when they suddenly removed the fglrx drivers (I had 2x HD7870 running in CrossFire) for the Radeon drivers.

For me Debian testing is the somewhat rolling Debian distro. Reliable and stable as a desktop for server use I would just stick with Debian stable and maybe with some backports if needed.

My NAS a QNAP TS-459Pro is running Debian bullseye (stable), QNAP's support ended years ago, in the OpenMediaVault flavour and will upgrade to bookworm when OMV is ready.

It serves my purpose.

IEE and now IET are uk organisations and the IEEE is an american organisation got nothing to do with EU regulations. FYI CENELEC is NOT an EU institution. For the banana plug I take you are referring to DIN, do note DIN socketplugs were not required for HiFi use and was mostly used on german A/V equipment. Most use now the Japanese/American sockets/plugs for A/V equipment.

Actually it started with the Benelux, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benelux , in 1944. Together with France, West Germany and Italy they started the European Coal and Steel Community in 1951 and that developed into the EEC 1957.

Re: Article 50

Leave Holland out of it. A large number of dutch people who voted didn't have a clue what the Ukrain referendum was really about. First they didn't understand that it was actually a trade treaty and cooperation with the Ukraine. Total turnout of voters was only 32.28% of which 61% was against. So NO it was definitely not the majority of dutch voters. We all know that in these cases the no-voters turn-out the most. Specially if you see which political parties were against.

KB3000850

It's not only Avast how many of you lot have been reading abt. KB3000850. Not by that many if I look at the comments.

There are plenty of others who do not run Avast having the same issues.

In this case blame is more on MS for not conveying the changes they would make to memory calls so companies like Avast or others could take the neccessary steps to prevent any mishaps.
