Ptyxis is my current go-to. It can detect available pods or toolboxes (maybe docker too haven't tested it) and you can open terminals directly into them. It also highlights ssh terms and root shells differently.

There are a huge number of built-in color schemes as well and I've had no trouble finding any configuration option I've found myself wanting to look for.

It's also available on flathub so it's easily installed in most distros.

Mine is a 2020 with 32gb storage and 3gb ram but same ballpark. I just replaced my PC earlier this year but the Chromebook is next. I'm looking at renewed HP elitebooks or renewed ThinkPads, but I'm not sure either come in a size OP would want.

Came to second this. I have an old hp Chromebook that is indestructible, has insane battery life, and still has a few years of updates left. The built in Linux terminal is fine and just about anything you can get through apt-get, dpkg, or otherwise works fine as well (if there is an arm version), it'll even add menu entries for GUI apps.

I do light reading or dev work on it, and use the built in terminal to keep track of and ssh into my remote boxes. I take it on the road to take notes or hop on a wifi.

When I first got it the interface was kinda crap for a laptop, but through the updates (dark mode, new menu, etc) it's actually just fine now.

It's slow, low ram and only usable for a few tabs at a time, but for what I use it for it does fine, and it was cheap enough I won't cry if it dies.

I dual booted a few times back in the days of winxp and win7. Never had a good experience somehow windows or a grub update always messed up things. Haven't ran windows in years but when I have to it goes on a separate drive now.

Just came here to say you could always look for alternative projects that have this built in as well. I'm not sure what logs you as looking at, but it might be best to contribute or request this feature directly for the software.

For example I use crowdsec and they have a button on the logs pages that will anonymize the entire page and is great for taking screenshots.

I agree with another poster that getting something to work with a number of different logs would be a huge undertaking and unrealistic for most solo devs. I do think asking whatever project could be a start. I'd love if journalctl and syslogd etc had a flag to anonymize the log output.

Personally often times I just open the screenshot in gimp and pixelate out the areas I want hidden, but that's not an automated solution.

I second this. I run fedora on my desktop and debian on the server. Docker works great on debian as well.

Thanks that's good to learn!

I'd suggest one of the fedora atomic installs, maybe even get a couple renewed Thinkpads all set up, one with kde and one with gnome and let them play with them for a few days. I was the only engineer in my company that ran Linux and the bosses only concession was that I carry a windows PC too when he was onsite with me so he'd understand what I was doing, but he provided a nice one for me so I never complained.

I second the people that said lineage OS. I am using it right now. I got this Nord phone because I knew they were easy to tinker with. I used it a bit and ended up with a newer galaxy. Well after I put lineage on the Nord every problem it had went away. Excellent battery life, runs smoothly, weekly security patches if I want etc. One thing that helped a lot was the "Aurora" app store. Let's you install apps anonymously from the play store without requiring google services. Many of them won't work due to the no google services, but a surprising amount of stuff does just fine even if it complains about it.

No offense taken we all have different knowledge and background. I have a general understanding of podman, but now I'm going to go play with it a bit at some point and get more familiar with it.

Docker is Apache 2.0 licensed. It is open source. Or at least all of the important parts. I'm not sure about docker desktop. It's partly that I just have a lot of experience with docker, and partly just that it's what is supported in most projects' documentation. The fact that a lot of the Linux foundation training uses docker is another reason I've got more experience with it.

As far as what you are talking about people have been trying for years. The Pirate Bay wanted to develop a new method of being entirely decentralized. Odysee is working on something like blockchain/torrents combined that is very interesting. We have I2P and TOR which have some of the features you mention. I'd love to see it happen where the big companies didn't control things.

There is progress though. https://letsencrypt.org/ is non-profit, and there are a variety of open source projects using this to automate TLS certificate signing.

Check out https://www.sigstore.dev/how-it-works and pay special attention to Fulcio and Rekor. It's not for web certs, but it's still a very interesting take on a certificate authority.

There's no technical reason what you are saying couldn't work. It just comes down to how do you trust it, and if you can't at all, it doesn't do much good anyway. That's the problem to be solved. You could compromise somewhere in the middle but then you have to work out what is acceptable. I suppose the level of trust could be configurable, with different nodes earning a different level of trust, and you could configure your accepted levels for DNS or CA. It's an interesting idea.

I'm on bookworm now myself. Check this out https://forum.greenbone.net/t/external-access-to-gsa-web-interface-ip/1671/4 and thanks I'll let you know if I run into trouble!

I think my issue was I was building it on a debian 11 bullseye. I managed to get all the individual pieces built and running, there was just one piece missing and I can't remember which now. I'll certainly give it a go. Someone just sent me a kvm build of debian sid just for that reason in fact! I believe they are working on the gvm debian package.
