Debian 13 "trixie" Gnome- Software 48.3 has nothing in it to Install.
I installed Debian 13 Gnome in my Testing Environment (Last 5 partitions of my Hard Disk) and it has nothing in it software repository to Install.
It is Sunday and perhaps the Developer Friends see this post and activate the repository for me to test it.
I have "trixie" testing already installed it is working fine.
It may that by trying to keep to the targeted date they may have overseen many important features.
It is Plasma Desktop 5 and I ditched it for BlueStarOS with the most beautiful Desktop. It supports AbiWord and it has ton of applications.
Netrunner Linux
Netruuner Linux is a distribution that comes from Germany.
It is a good distribution for Linux newcomer.
I have tested it many a times.
It is only 2.7GB image.
It is based on KDE but not the typical KDE.
The password for live session is live.
In a Live session, One sees all the application categorized on the the right side.
Applications are arranged in a alphabetical order.
One can install what is not there using Synaptic Package Manager. in a Live seeion.
I liked it because it supported Synaptic Package Manager.
One can install Gnome on top of the KDE but it makes the system unstable.
I am a Gnome user that is why I do not fancy it but nevertheless it is a good distribution.
How does one have a good password?
How one can remember a password with 14 to 16 characters (what banks employ now for an account, with the help of computers)?
To begin with one has to train the brain to remember.
I have a suggestion elsewhere (under web etiquette) that I do not want to repeat here.
Beginning
Step 1
One has to remember in blocks of three or four.
To train your mind try to remember your VISA card number.
Front four are almost specific and easy.
The last four should be your next attempt.
Do this every time when you go to the bank or to the till.
Do not worry if you forget.
When you can remember the first and the last lot of four numbers, try the other two lot not in specific way.
Suddenly part of the brain not utilized before get a rush of blood and new neuron networks.
Person with any age with firm resolve can do that.
This subconscious repetitive acts can be easily extended to one's password.
I DO NOT use a VISA card now.
I used to remember all the telephone numbers of my friends by heart in good old days and friends are the ones, one frequently ring and (telephone charges were relatively expensive, then) the brain stores them for good.
I stop doing that when cell phones came into existence.
One has to have one’s own trick for remembering blocks of three or four.
Try to associate them with pictures, names, pets etc.
Your pet fish or dog or cat would have a secret code attached.
Every time you feed them repeat the code (in mind) mentally in no time it get fixed as a long term permanent memory.
Step 2
Come with a phrase to include all the 10 to 16 characters in one’s password.
This is the hard part but it can be done.
Step 3
Use elements that one never forgets (unless one has Dementia).
Birthday is an easy one to remember.
Use only two numbers from it, not all.
Step 4
Unfortunately this cannot be used if one is English but I will give some hint for them too.
For Sinhala U Mata Banna, or Muta Mata Gahanna Hithenawa or Even Puke Ariya are
good enough relatively used rephrases one can remember in
trans-literate content, which the English Search engine might have
trouble in figuring out.
From that phrase one can choose four characters (even more if the phrase is carefully constructed) easily.
For English user, one good example is to go to alchemy and remember few Elements from the Tables.
Elements like Argon, Neon, Nitrogen,Bromine could be used at lib.
Or even one can use pentagon, hexagon, octagon or any other scientific or mathematical elements.
Again one only remembers four characters.
Step 5
If
one has ever used a password before which one has remembered with
repeated usage, use the same in the middle or rearrange it and put it in
the middle.
Which will easily give you at least six characters.
You already got 12 characters now.
Step 5
Use
two capital letters easy to access from the keyboard as the leader or
the end of the password or leader and end, depending one is right or
left handed.
Step 6
If the web site requires you to use an alphanumeric pick an alpha numeral to satisfy them.
You got 16 in all and 14 probably is adequate.
Step 7
Do not tell your method to anybody.
Do not share your password even with your spouse.
One day you me be divorced!
That is real and if you have time read my book on “Myths, Miracles and Marriage”.
Usually perfectly normal people become paranoid after getting married.
That is my medical experience.
It is often the people who are near and dear (sometimes, so called friends) who steal your password, not a rouge who breaks in for quick takeaway and getaway.
Keep the record of the method in a secret hiding place that you only have access.
In case one day you forget.
The best place to HIDE is your brain.
Not even a brain surgeon would not have any access.
Resetting the password
When you change the password, drop two and take two from your birthday.
Pick four alternative block of four from your catch phrase.
Jumble your original password or add a new one.
Follow
the rest as required and one may be able to go on till eighty to ninety
since you practiced your own method and is almost specific to YOUR
BRAIN which a hacker may not be able to penetrate or crack.
Unless you are one of twins there are no two people alike.
Even in them their are subtle differences not due to genetics but the brain behaves differently, even in twins.
Foot Note
But
beware your doctor with a short memory or who is cash strapped who
might steal your birth day or the catch phrase that you utter to him
every time you visit.
Remember doctors forget their passwords more often than their patients.
They will never tell you.
That is why they record every word you utter and then get the vital diagnosis
wrong.
In this computer age doctors have become robots (unlike good old days) and not real humans.
If they ask you do you forget your passwords
Straight away say NO.
The stupid guy will ask you to state the password and put it in his computer memory which is not protected from hackers.Even the nurse can steal it, if she/he is inclined.
I trust my doctor does not apply to passwords when you do visit him/her, next time, round.
That includes me too.
I might do that, catch your password, certainly not to steal but because my brain is getting absent minded, I might put that in my computer, easily accessed even by a little kid.
Do not worry, I do not practice now by choice not by design anyway.Finally I got Blender installed in Reborn OS.
After some lapse I installed Reborn OS on my NUC.
This time no problem with GRUB file and it did recognize all the other distributions, already installed.
I had to reinstall Reborn OS three times since it filled up the /var partition of 8.6GB when I installed additional applications which included 10 different browsers in addition to Firefox, my favorite.
I reduced the size of /home partition and added 2GB for /var.
That would fix my problems.
It finished installation, in double quick time.
It has STACER my favor utility which Debian 13 does not support.
But the Debian has System Monitor which is pretty good but Stacer with more graphic features I am hooked to.
I installed Gnome desktop but added the bonus of Plasma desktop.
One has to select one desktop at install time.
Reborn OS supports almost all the browsers.
Apart from Firefox my favorite, I have;
1. Librewolf
2. Falkon
3. Opera
4. Vivaldi
5. Konqueror
6. Brave
7. Dillo
8. Gnome browser or Epiphany
9. Anglerfish
10. Google Chrome browser which I never use
11. Tor Browser
I have no paranoia and I do not use it.
12. Safari of Apple
13. Internet Explorer of Microsoft and Edge
That was (IE) the first browser I ditched to go fully for Mozilla browser in it's early stages of development. Firefox was the standard for Linux Distributions and me being a Linux Guy stuck to Firefox for life. With Linux one need not fiddle with the Firefox configuration. In any case it is the strip down version of Firefox with no unnecessary cookies.
That is the beauty of Linux and that is why it is fast.
I used to use the history file when I was bit paranoid, having ditched Microsoft for it's snoopy behavior.
That was the first irritation of Microsoft which I detected very early in my web life.
Facebook of course I ditched in six months.
Now a few words about Linux Catchy OS.
It is a strip down version of Arch with only the essentials tools available and it is absolutely fast.
It has developed its own browser.
One has to have a good understanding of Linux to use it as a daily driver.
I prefer Reborn OS which is more desktop oriented distribution.
One has to choose one desktop at installation.
I use Gnome and add Plasma desktop, later.
It supports Cosmic, MATE and many more desktops one can add later.
Reborn OS
Reborn OS is pretty Good.
I tried Cosmic desktop on Reborn OS and it works fine.
I have used only 35GB of my NUC for all it's partitions and my advice for a newbie is to use at least 50GB.
It has many good features.
I am currently Installing Reborn Os on top of CarchyOS which is also based on ARCH but minimal.
This is the penultimate stage of testing ARCH based distributions which were all based on KDE (Endeavour OS, BlueStar Linux OS which I have already installed in my System) but with Reborn OS I can choose Gnome desktop when installin.
I hate KDE except Plasma, because I am a Debian Guy using Gnome.
I decided, I would promote only Gnome Desktop, in future due to many reasons.
On second thought, I am promoting both KDE Plasma and Gnome.
Then, only one can see the difference.
Gnome of Debian is my workhorse.
Its installation is fast.
Graphical instructions are intuitive and I had the choice of selecting Abiword, OpenOffice, LibreOffice and there was another word processor which I do not know anything about.
Well, I went for my favourite AbiWord.
One can install it either offline or online. Online takes a little longer and one can chose one out of about 10 desktops at install.
I prefer online install.
By the way, little while ago I installed Gnome minus LibreOffice.
Firefox and LibreOffice have to support many languages by default.
It saved 2GB and the Grand Total was just over 7GB for the basic install.
It had all the utilities I needed in a basic install and it went up to 8GB on full install and I have 11GB left, in my root partition of 19GB, for any additional packages I might Install.
RebornOS is a desktop oriented Linux distribution based on Arch Linux.
Although the RebornOS live image provides Xfce desktop, the installation process offers a choice to install one of the many popular desktop environments and window managers.
Other interesting features of the distribution includes the support for Flatpak packages, optional installation of Anbox for running Android applications
It has the capability to rollback the system to a previous date, and graphical system configuration and maintenance tools.
OS Type Linux
Based on ARCH
Origin USA
Architecture x86-64
Desktop XFCE
Category Desktop and Live Medium
Status Active
Blender
Blender is huge application.
Update on Gnoppix Linux
I downloaded the latest image of the Gnoppix but it is nowhere near the original Knoppix.
It is nothing much to talk about but if you have low RAM do not try it.
It is trying to introduce this strange AI mode installation, which is bizarre for me to comment on.
It's image is 4.5GB. Mind you I do not like any image over 4GB, except BlueStar Linux.
Regarding Ubuntu, it is again a waste of time testing it it is over again.
It has no utilities, even though it is 6.5GB image.
MX Linux Revisited-Thank YOU
There some problem with GRUB file and it did not recognize Reborn OS. I am reinstalling Reborn OS with a big /var partition for my additional applications.
It has finished installing.
I am currently installing MX Linux 6.1.0-35-amd64 Kernel.
It is almost two years.
I is using KDE desktop as its base.
I am installing Gnome desktop now.
Make sure one start with Gdm and not Sddm (one has to look for the type of desktop from the panel below).
I am used to the top right hand scheme of the Gnome.
Installation is very slow but everything is streamlined for a newbie with graphic instructions.
It is nice to see even Reborn OS use MX Linux methods.
I hope it gets my GRUB file OK.
Fortunately it lets me access my Gnome /Home folder to copy my books to MX Linux folder., in case I mess up with my Gnome.
I am well into Debian 13 series which bit refined and no complaints.
I have 2 Debian and one Reborn OS and MX Linux in my NUC with 320GB.
It has a 50GB NTFS folder which stores all my favorite Linux distributions that include Reborn OS, Manjaro, Bodhi 7.0.0.64, Arch, Antix, Debian old and new and many more images.
I went back to Gnome Desktop and got Synaptic Package Manager installed.
Stacer, Gdebi, Gparted and USB writer and USB formatter included.
Yes, using KDE is a pain in the arxx>.
I do not need to respond to every OK approval now.
By the way it supports open office.

Mx Linux 23.3-Install
Since,
I have given up on Ubuntu, I decided to use another Linux distribution
on top of Debian, Gnome, with a Light Weight Desktop.
I am beginning to Love Light Weight Desktops where on can fiddle with icon and windows.
In Flushbox Windows can be taken out of the monitor screen but they do not disappear but come from the other end.
It reduces the clutter even on a giant monitor.
I have also decided to Install it on a USB, instead of writing on a USB to mount.
I want it to be persistent copy and not a Live session.
It has lot of options and it is finishing install with Efi partition and a SWAP partition, in case I mount it on a Windows Box.
I takes long time to install USB stick which is understandable.
It booted with a user password and root password for Synaptic Package Manager.
I am currently installing,
1. AbiWord.
2. Stacer.
3. Notepadqq
4. Ranger
There is no LibreOffice.
Efi
/root is just under 10GB.
/boot
SWAP
No additional partitions.
I have found a way to add additional partitions say /var or /tmp.
Arthur Buchwald (Born, October 20, 1925 – January 17, 2007) was an American humorist best known for his column in The Washington Post. At the height of his popularity, it was published nationwide as a syndicated column in more than 500 newspapers. His column focused on political satire and commentary.
Buchwald had first started writing as a paid journalist in Paris after World War II, where he wrote a column on restaurants and nightclubs, "Paris After Dark", for the Paris Herald Tribune, which later became the International Herald Tribune.[2] He was part of a large American expatriate community in those years. After his return to the United States in 1962, he continued to publish his columns and books for the rest of his life. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 1982 for Outstanding Commentary, and in 1991 was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, in addition to other awards.
Early life
Buchwald was born in New York City in 1925, to an Austrian-Hungarian Jewish immigrant family. He was the son of Joseph Buchwald, a curtain manufacturer, and Helen (Klineberger). His mother suffered from depression and was later committed to a mental hospital, where she lived for 35 years. Buchwald was the youngest of four children, with three older sisters: Alice, Edith, and Doris. When the family business failed at the start of the Great Depression, Buchwald's father put the boy in the Hebrew Orphan Asylum in New York City, as he could not care for him. Buchwald was soon placed in foster homes, and lived in several, including a Queens boarding house for sick children (he had rickets because of poor nutrition). It was operated by Seventh-day Adventists. He stayed in the foster home until he was 5.
Buchwald was eventually reunited with his father and sisters; the family settled in Hollis, a residential community in Queens. Buchwald did not graduate from Forest Hills High School, and ran away from home at age 17.
He wanted to join the United States Marine Corps during World War II but was too young to join without parental or legal guardian consent. He bribed a drunk with half a pint of whiskey to sign as his legal guardian. From October 1942 to October 1945, Buchwald served with the Marines as part of the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing. He spent two years in the Pacific Theater and was discharged from the service as a sergeant. He said of his time in the Marines, "In the Marines, they don't have much use for humorists, they beat my brains in."
On his return, Buchwald enrolled at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles on the G.I. Bill, despite not having graduated from high school. At USC he became managing editor of the campus magazine Wampus; he also wrote a column for the college newspaper, the Daily Trojan. The university permitted him to continue his studies after learning he had not graduated from high school, but deemed him ineligible for a degree. After establishing his national reputation and winning the Pulitzer Prize, he was invited as a commencement speaker in 1993 and received an honorary doctorate from the university.
In 1949, Buchwald left USC and bought a one-way ticket to Paris. He got a job as a correspondent for Variety in Paris. In January 1950, he took a sample column to the offices of the European edition of the New York Herald Tribune. Titled "Paris After Dark", it was filled with scraps of offbeat information about Parisian nightlife. Buchwald was hired and joined the editorial staff as a restaurant and nightclub reviewer. His column caught on quickly, and in 1951 Buchwald started another column, "Mostly About People". They were fused into one under the title "Europe's Lighter Side". Buchwald's columns soon began to attract readers on both sides of the Atlantic.
In postwar Paris, Buchwald met many American expatriate writers, going about with Janet Flanner, E.B. White, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, and Thornton Wilder. He also had brief encounters with the artist Pablo Picasso, writer Ernest Hemingway, directors Orson Welles and Mike Todd, actress Audrey Hepburn, and attorney Roy Cohn.
In November 1952, Buchwald wrote a column in which he attempted to explain the Thanksgiving holiday to the French, using garbled French translations such as "Kilometres Deboutish" for Myles Standish; Buchwald considered it his favorite column. He published it every Thanksgiving during his lifetime.
Buchwald enjoyed the notoriety he received when U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower's press secretary, James Hagerty, took seriously a spoof press conference report claiming that reporters asked questions about the president's breakfast habits. After Hagerty called his own conference to denounce the article as "unadulterated rot", Buchwald famously retorted, "Hagerty is wrong. I write adulterated rot." On August 24, 1959, Time magazine, in reviewing the history of the European edition of The Herald Tribune, reported that Buchwald's column had achieved an "institutional quality".
While in Paris, Buchwald became the only correspondent to substantively interview famous American singer Elvis Presley, who had entered the U.S. Army. They met at the Prince de Galles Hotel, where the soon-to-be Sergeant Presley was staying during a week-end off from his army stint in Germany. Presley's impromptu performances at the piano at Le Lido nightclub, as well as his singing for the showgirls after most of the customers had left, became legendary after Buchwald included it in his memoir, I'll Always Have Paris (1995).
Buchwald returned to the United States in 1962. He wrote as a columnist for The Washington Post, frequently commenting on the political scene. When once asked where he got his ideas, he said simply that he read the newspaper every day. He could not make up the absurd situations that were reported. His column was syndicated by Tribune Media Services. His column appeared in more than 550 newspapers at its height. He also wrote memoirs and other books, a total of more than 30 in his lifetime. He also contributed fumetti to Marvel Comics' Crazy Magazine, which tore apart statistics regarding 1970s campus life.
During his time in Paris, Buchwald met Ann McGarry, and they married. She was an Irish-American apprentice couturier from Pennsylvania. After returning to the United States, they later adopted three children. They lived in Washington, D.C., where he wrote for The Washington Post. They spent most summers at their house in Vineyard Haven on Martha's Vineyard. After 40 years of marriage, the couple separated, and then decided to get a divorce. However, before the divorce proceedings could start, Ann was diagnosed with lung cancer, and passed away in 1994.
Buchwald had a cameo in Alfred Hitchcock's To Catch a Thief (1955). Near the beginning of the movie, an issue of the Paris Herald Tribune is shown in close-up to highlight a column, bylined by Buchwald, about jewel thefts on the French Riviera, which sets up the plot.
He contributed to the English dialogue of Jacques Tati's Playtime.[10] Buchwald also had a cameo role in a 1972 episode, "Moving Target", of the TV series Mannix. He is shown in Frederick Wiseman's 1983 film The Store delivering a tribute to Stanley Marcus, the store's owner.
In 1988, Buchwald and partner Alain Bernheim filed suit against Paramount Pictures in a controversy over the Eddie Murphy film Coming to America. In the Buchwald v. Paramount lawsuit, Buchwald claimed Paramount had stolen his script treatment. He won, was awarded damages, and accepted a settlement from Paramount. The case was the subject of a 1992 book, Fatal Subtraction: The Inside Story of Buchwald v. Paramount.
In Buchwald's later years, his detractors characterized the column as hackneyed, tiresome and not funny. Political analyst Norman Ornstein in 1991 said he thought Buchwald's column was more popular "outside the Beltway"; others disagreed.
Roy Bode, editor of the Dallas Times Herald, said that when his paper canceled Buchwald's column in 1989, the editors did not receive a single letter of protest. By contrast, when the paper cancelled the comic strip Zippy the Pinhead, so many readers complained that the editors were compelled to bring it back.
In September 2005, Timothy Noah wrote in Slate, "Yes, Buchwald still writes his column. No, it hasn't been funny for some time."
Buchwald underwent hospitalization twice for mental disorders: once in 1963 for severe depression. In 1987, he was hospitalized for what was then diagnosed as an extreme episode of bipolar disorder, which he had probably had for years. He publicly recounted these experiences in 1999.
In 2000, at age 74, Buchwald suffered a stroke. He was hospitalized for more than two months. On February 16, 2006, the Associated Press reported that Buchwald had had a leg amputated below the knee and was staying at Washington Home and Hospice. The amputation was reportedly necessary because of poor circulation in the leg, resulting from diabetes.
Buchwald invited radio talk show presenter Diane Rehm to interview him. During the show, which aired on February 24, 2006, he revealed his decision to discontinue hemodialysis, which had previously been initiated to treat kidney failure, another result of his having diabetes mellitus. He described his decision as his "last hurrah", stating that, "If you have to go, the way you go is a big deal." He reported that he was "very happy with his choices" and was eating at McDonald's on a regular basis.
Buchwald was later interviewed by Miles O'Brien of CNN, in a segment aired on March 31, 2006. Buchwald discussed his living will, which documented his wishes not to be revived if he fell into a coma. As of the date of that interview, Buchwald was still writing a periodic column. In the interview, he described a dream in which he was waiting to take his "final plane ride".
Buchwald was interviewed by Fox News' Chris Wallace for a segment on May 14, 2006's edition of Fox News Sunday.
In June 2006, Buchwald left the hospice. He was again interviewed by Rehm and reported that his kidney was working. He said that he "blesses him every morning. Some people bless their hearts, I bless my kidney." He reported that he was looking forward to getting a new leg and visiting Martha's Vineyard. In July 2006, Buchwald returned to his summer home in Tisbury on Martha's Vineyard. While there, he completed a book titled Too Soon to Say Goodbye, about the five months he spent in the hospice. Eulogies that were prepared by his friends, colleagues, and family members and were never delivered (or not delivered until later) are included in the book.
On November 3, 2006, television news reporter Kyra Phillips interviewed Buchwald for CNN. Phillips had known Buchwald since 1989, when she had first interviewed him. On November 22, 2006, Buchwald was again featured on Rehm's show. He described himself as a "poster boy for hospices – because I lived."

In December 2006, in his final interview, he told nurse/writer Terry Ratner that he was also a poster boy for nurses. The article, "The 'Art' of Saying Goodbye", appeared in the January 2007 issues of Nursing Spectrum and NurseWeek, national nursing publications.
Buchwald died of kidney failure on January 17, 2007, at his son Joel's home in Washington, D.C. The next day the website of The New York Times posted a video obituary in which Buchwald said: "Hi. I'm Art Buchwald, and I just died."
In 1977, he received the S. Roger Horchow Award for Greatest Public Service by a Private Citizen, an award given out annually by Jefferson Awards.
In 1982, Buchwald was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Outstanding Commentary.
In 1991, he was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.[
In 1991, he received the World Humour Award, from the Workshop Library on World Humour.[
In 1994, he received the Golden Plate Award of the American Academy of Achievement.[
Buchwald published numerous anthologies and collections of his columns, as well as memoirs.
