Subject: Re: Ultrathin Laptop ...
My most recent laptop is like this.
Frame.work is what I have and would recommend.
Perhaps it has more power than you are needing, as RDP would mean remote processing, though?

If you use CC for the blog, then I think that can also adequately cover a small amount of code for an example. > If you REALLY don't care, use the FreeBSD license. I generally prefer copyleft and avoid that which isn't, but if your goal is to encourage people to use your examples and run with them, then Aaron is right. A permissive license such as the FreeBSD license will have the least encumbrances. If you use a BSD license, please use a newer version without the advertising clause. BTW, answering this has gotten me to think about the code examples in my own presentations and blog posts. Thanks for asking! Also, thanks for creating documentation :). ciao, der.hans > If you care a little, use the latest GPL. > > On 8/9/22 14:42, Keith Smith via PLUG-discuss wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I am writing some source code as an example that will make it into a >> number of blog posts on my blog.

You can always re-license it later (I don't think it only applies after a fork?). I promote GPL3 usually (copyleft). If I don't care about some company stealing and selling my code or perhaps someone using it for nefarious purposes, then I often recommend WTFPL for very small projects. I think it's Apache-like licenses that are pretty good for open-sourcing projects while still granting you some intellectual property protections.

Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Seeking input on ultrathin laptops that can run Linux adequately well. Prefer a 15" screen, but don't care about much else, as it's only "real" job will be to host an RDP session to my Workstation and Server. I know a lot of laptops can run Linux, but I was hoping to get feedback from real world usage. Ultrathin and 2-3 pounds is desired.
