Eye tracking mouse?
I'm a disabled eye tracking user and the technology has become an amazing tool on Windows with stuff like Mill Mouse that makes hands free AAA gaming possible. Do you know of anything on Linux, apart from Talon Voice ( it's complex to setup and jittery)? I'd be prepared to pay anyone who build something basic and easy to setup for mouse cursor control (for Tobii 4C).

Static Web Hosting on the Intel N150: FreeBSD, SmartOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Linux Compared
Compare static web hosting performance on an Intel N150 using the same nginx.conf across FreeBSD jails, SmartOS zones, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Linux, focusing on HTTP vs HTTPS and TLS CPU usage.
I switched to KDE LINUX (latest edition), and I am loving it, few bugs on first day but now its working fine.

Should i try Solus ?!!
Hello Every one, now I’m on Mageia now and I’m enjoying it , but you know the distro hopping 🤓 , so I was searching for uncommon distro and so many people recommend Solus , i never used Budgie DE before , but some of them telling that there is nothing out of the box there , so I was asking the people who tried Solus if it deserves a chance !!

Online command book
Good afternoon, I would like to ask if anyone has the book The Linux command line by William Shotts IN SPANISH VERSION.
I have it in English, but it would be easier for me to read if I had it in Spanish
Greetings
Thank you so much

Setting up a clean and reliable Linux dev environment.
I’m trying to figure out the best way to build a solid development environment on Linux. I’m starting with plain Ubuntu 24.04 every time, and I often have to set everything up on different laptops, so I’m trying to find the least painful and most repeatable way to do it.
I came up with a few ideas:
1. Taking a system snapshot
Feels like a simple way to “freeze” a good state and go back to it when everything breaks. Not sure if this is reliable enough for a daily dev setup or more of a last-resort safety net.
2. A custom automation noscript
Something that installs all dependencies, tools, packages, config files, maybe dotfiles. Sounds practical, but I’m wondering if plain bash noscripts eventually turn into an unmaintainable mess, especially when used across different machines.
3. Ansible
I’ve been reading about it recently. It looks powerful and structured, but I’m not sure if it isn’t overkill for a single-machine setup. On the other hand, since I reinstall environments on multiple laptops, maybe it would actually save me a lot of time.
I’d love to hear what problems I might run into with each approach. Things like package version drift, breaking updates, environment differences, tools that don’t behave the same across clean installs, etc.
If you were starting from scratch on Ubuntu 24.04, how would you build your dev environment so that it’s stable, reproducible, and easy to restore on any machine?

Why do both snap and flatpak exist when they both do the same thing?
As noscript
Basically my understanding is snap is a sandbox packaging system that works on all distros developed by canonical
And flatpak is a sandbox packaging system that works on all distros developed by themselves?
Why have two formats that fundamentally do the same thing?

Will the Steam Frame cause VR Linux Distros to start popping up?
Been thinking about the frame a bit, and its got me thinking. If it runs SteamOS, why cant anyone with enough VR technical experience and knowledge of the device put together a custom distro? Would there even be a reasonable reason to do that or would it literally only be something to do as an unnecessary mod?
