If any Linux distribution requires terminal usage to get working it's an insta no-go for me.

I agree. If it's required (i.e. You can't use it without it), I wouldn't use it. But I don't think you see that these days on consumer editions of Linux.

I'm all in, if y'all need me. Only if this is a Debian/buntu base. I can alpha/beta anything that comes up. Also, I am willing to torrent files. My system is up 24/6. The 7th day I do system maintenance.

Thanks for the offer but this is going to be built on Arch.

Wow! Just like that. Guess I will get with a few of my buddies and restart the Original Shift back up. I still have an old ISO and can just update every thing and get one of my buddies to work out the bugs.

It wasnt just like that, we had votes on it and everything.

Either way good luck with your project :)

Which IRC channel? Neowin's IRC channel?

Yeah its on Neowin's IRC server in the #shift room

Because of 2 reasons:

1. I hate Arch.

2. I love Fedora.

3. See 1 & 2. :p

Wait, that's 3 reasons. Anyways, Arch and I do not count each other as friends. I do not understand the structure and when Shift went to Arch as base last time, I tried to work with it, but couldn't So I left. Maybe you guys can open up voting again and include Fedora? I know askin that is a long shot, but a closed mouth doesn't get fed.

the voting was already done and Arch won by a good number, the reason we chose something like arch is because we wanted to start at a small base so Shift2 would be less bloated, and in the end we all agreed on Arch as the base

honestly I don't see what you have against arch, I find it rather easy to work with for a user point of view

I don't know anything about Linux when it comes to getting past the basic install and desktop environment, but Ive always wanted to. Please don't listen to those who say it will fail, it probably will but who cares? Everything fails in the end but you learn so much along the way and you take that info to new places.

Now now everyone, lets chill this :)

Lo Tec, you are free to do whatever you like, but regarding this project, I have decided to do things democratically which is why I held a vote on what base to use. Arch won that vote by quite the margin. Unfortunately it would be a bit unfair to everyone that voted to reopen it again, which is why im not going to.

But like I said previously, all the best if you decide to take your Fedora based project further :)

Doesn't matter what you don't know! None of us know how to make a distro :p but we can work together, try things and learn how to make one.

Trial and error.

Couldnt of said it any better, we are all here to learn about Linux, and thats what I will make sure happens :)

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
