Parade du Grotesque

This is the only correct answer. 😂

If that’s the case, my advice is to spend some time to understand the finer point of kernel configuration and compiling, and to compile a kernel as stripped down as possible. Hint : ‘dmesg’ and ‘make menuconfig’ are your friends.

Include only the drivers you know you need, and especially network, graphical card, and sound card, and make sure you target your CPU architecture. Then, and only then, can you start including fancy configurations like the ones you mentioned.

Finally, consider adding as much memory and SSDs in your configuration as possible, as these usually have a huge impact on performance.

Yes, they do.

The reason for this is that the Catholic church is one of the most powerful (if not the most powerful) religious movement on Earth.

Its interests may conflict with many countries interests (USA, Russia, China, Israel, etc) and its influence can be enormous in the countries where it is present. Think about the Church position on Gaza or Ukraine, for instance.

Many intelligence services therefore spy on the Vatican. The NSA, for instance, is on the record as saying they never cracked its codes (which is a debate for some other day), it was mentioned in the Puzzle Palace if I remember correctly.

I would say, like many others, Remmina.

Putty also has a Linux version, so you can use that as well. Its session management is a bit clunky, but it works and it offers some fairly good functionalities.

But ssh is first and foremost a command line tool. As others have said, invest some time to learn its commands and configuration files.

The question is this: if your distribution already provides a working kernel, and the battery life and performance are acceptable, why waste your time recompiling a new kernel?

Compiling your Linux kernel used to be mandatory, precisely because Linux was so fast moving and because hardware management was poor. This is (mostly) not the case anymore.

Use the kernel provided by your distribution, and let them worry about updating testing and securing it.

I say this as someone who used to compile kernels, to support all the hardware in my servers. I don’t do this anymore, and I haven’t done this since 2010 or so.

There is a guy named Arthur David Olson who maintains a small database of all the time zones in the world, including things like leap seconds and such. It’s used by everybody and it is updated several times a year. See here:
