Coming to #RedHatSummit next week? Come see #CentOS and #Fedora in the Open Platforms track of Community Day on Monday, or in Community Central in the expo hall. centos.org/events/summi...

Fedora 44 includes a small improvement for enabling/disabling repos that makes my OCD happy. old syntax: dnf config-manager setopt $repoid.enabled=1 dnf config-manager setopt $repoid.enabled=0 new syntax: dnf config-manager enable $repoid dnf config-manager disable $repoid #fedora #dnf

@carlwgeorge.bsky.social Fedora RPM package lab @ Fedora Hatch Day is not only informative (so much to learn about packaging and spec files) but also really accessible and made easy to learn. Carl is a great teacher! #Scale23x

Talarico is the real fucking deal. "The culture wars are a smoke screen, because the real fight in this country is not left vs right, it's top vs bottom." youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A #Texas #USPol #Vote

CentOS Connect is next week, just before FOSDEM. Can't make it to Brussels? Register to join virtually. We livestream and relay chat questions to the speakers. www.centos.org/events/conne... #CentOS #CentOSConnect

Got a talk you've been thinking about? Want to GIVE a talk you've been thinking about? You should submit your proposal soon, the CFP for SCALE is closing soon. This is hands-down one of the best community-organized conferences you can attend, and Pasadena is great in the spring...

Big news! Our friends at Universal Blue have released an LTS of their Bluefin OS, built with the power of bootc on top of CentOS Stream base images. If you love Bluefin but want CentOS stability, check it out. docs.projectbluefin.io/blog/bluefin... #uBlue #Bluefin #CentOS #bootc

Software is made by people. Trashing software is trashing other people's work. It's fine to have negative opinions about a piece of software, but you can just not use it instead of trying to publicly shame it.

From #CentOSShowcase: @carlwgeorge.bsky.social talked about how minor versions work in everybody's favorite extra package repo, EPEL. youtu.be/xXdsTD7Oo-0 #CentOS #FedoraEPEL #EPEL

I've been an AI skeptic, even to the point of refusing to try it, but I finally gave in and started tinkering with ChatGPT over the last month or so. Besides that tool being really popular, it was nice to be able to just get started without creating an account. Some of the things I've tried:

EPEL 10 launched a little over five months ago. Today, RHEL 10 was released. In that time EPEL 10 has grown to 17,756 packages (from 5,451 source packages) built by 249 different Fedora packagers. 📦🎉🤩 #epel #fedora #centos #rhel

The premise for this talk has been bouncing around in my head for a few years now. I finally submitted it to @lfnw.org to force myself to follow through and create the presentation. I'm proud of how it turned out. Thanks to everyone who attended, and to the organizers for selecting the talk.

From #CentOSConnect: @carlwgeorge.bsky.social talked about the work leading up to EPEL 10. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pbj... #CentOS #FedoraEPEL

In case you missed him at Connect, Carl George will talk about EPEL 10 at 13:00 in the FOSDEM distros devroom. Carl is stepping in for a cancelation. Schedule should update soon. https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/track/distributions/ #FOSDEM #FOSDEMDistros #FedoraEPEL

ICYMI: @carlwgeorge.bsky.social and Adam Samalik sat down with Eric Hendriks on the Fedora Podcast to talk about everybody's favorite EL package repo, EPEL. https://www.youtube.com/live/rZzDjJc-q_4 #Fedora #FedoraEPEL

On behalf of the EPEL Steering Committee, I’m happy to announce the availability of EPEL 10. communityblog.fedoraproject.org/epel-10-is-n... #EPEL #CentOS #RHEL

We're excited to announce CentOS Stream 10, the latest in Enterprise Linux: https://buff.ly/4iAVAfm Not enough newness? EPEL 10 is now also available with over 10k packages: https://buff.ly/4fbxsgt #CentOS #CentOSStream #FedoraEPEL

You owe it to yourself to watch this killer talk from @adamhjk.me about free software, open source, fair source, and business. "You sell that shit for money!" 🤣 youtu.be/rmhYHzJpkuo #KubeCon #FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FairSource

One episode in, it looks like Landman is going to be another hit for Taylor Sheridan. If you like his other work such as Hell or High Water and Yellowstone, check it out.

It occurred to me the other day that, for better or worse, the majority of my vegetable intake is from salsa. Thanks San Antonio.

CentOS doesn't have an account here yet, so I'll post it. CentOS Connect is happening January 30-31 in Brussels, right before FOSDEM. The CFP is open. Join us to collaborate on the future of Enterprise Linux. connect.centos.org #CentOS #CentOSConnect

First impressions here: The app is pretty nice. The website isn't bad either. But it seems like lots of the nerdy conversations I enjoy are missing. I'm interested to see how that shapes up over time as more folks join. For now Mastodon will still be my primary I think.
