I speak with no authority on the subject but from what I have read and heard, the hard coding of systemd into applications is mostly unnecessary. I don't know what benefits to that application it enhances other than enforcing systemd

I could be completely wrong here though.

The systemd creep! Long has it been since systemd was just an init system, It's becoming an operating system.
DJ Ware released a video on this recently.

The Windows 11 machine is a work laptop not my own, previously running Windows 10. I work in Government so these machines are security managed, they won't be running anything other than what's provided.

At home, I don't run Windows 11 or any Windows version apart from Win 98 in a VM. All my hardware runs Linux.

Another mention of Mousepad excellent!

Now orgmode, I was briefly introduced to this when I was using or attempting to use emacs.
I have been toying with the idea of another attempt to master emacs and after a quick read of the orgmode site https://orgmode.org/ I might need to look into it more seriously.
GTD (Get Things Done methodology) sounds interesting I'm going to look into this as I have a cluttered and disorganised brain.

I'm dyslexic and one trait of dyslexia is they way we work through tasks, instead of starting at 0 and working through to 9, If i don't keep myself in check I will start at 7 find myself completely in another dimension at -4 teleported to 17.5 and eventually arrive at 9. It can be quite an adventure. Unfortunately in the corporate world they don't see it that way.

Tasks for this evening.

0. install emacs

I think I can manage that!

Yes you are right about other formats I work in the field of Records and Archiving and we are well into the world of digital archiving  and my work in extracting data from the numerous file formats in existence brings new meaning to format hell! sometimes we can only extract the raw data into a text file and then try to make it human readable.

Text is best!

Yes congratulations Devuan and thank you to all that put in hard work to create such an amazing distribution.

Hello, just returning to this, apologies it has been a while. I noticed that I still, get the 'Donations to this recipient aren't supported in this country' message when trying to donate to Devuan.
My thoughts: I can donate to Dyne.org as there are a few options. This will go towards Dyne projects and Devuan. 
I use other Dyne software so I think it is a better option for me.

Wondering is a better idea to redirect the Devuan donation requests  to Dyne with a message like 'Supporting The Dyne.org Foundation you support Devuan ' or something allot those lines.

Just an update, PayPal customer service  actually rang me, I couldn't believe it!
They said that nothing on their end is blocking the transaction, and it could be an issue with the client.
I'm wondering if this is something to do with the button code on the donation page ?
Hopefully someone in the Devuan team can look into this.

Thanks
Rue.

This is excellent news! Thank you.
