You can normally query a Windows OEM Product Key bound to your hardware in a Linux shell quite easily:

If you want to start with Kubernetes on your workstation or even want to test with small clusters, I really recommend to take a look at Rancher’s k3s.
I want to introduce a little command fu for reporting broken symlinks on the shell, because I found several variations while searching in the net, that were not very satisfying.
In the former post Ansible meets CurseForge on Linux I described the installation and updates of Minecraft ModPacks with Ansible for Linux users.
Now it’s team to mention MultiMC for a more user-friendly solution also ready for Linux.
If you want to play modern Minecraft ModPacks on CurseForge in Java on Linux, the Twitch Launcher for Windows is not very helpful.

I have already quite a zoo of Single-Board Computers running Debian derivates, but the latest pet Raspberry Pi Zero W was the first missing standard ethernet.
If you want to reduce your nginx logs to non-personalized resp. anonymized
