If you're interested in the Twisted networking protocol, this is by far the best introduction: https://krondo.com/an-introduction-to-asynchronous-programming-and-twisted/. You won't even notice that this was written 13! years ago.
A quick search on Google reveals that there's approx. 2,195 commercial bank branches / 100,000 people. Let's just assume, that there's an equal amount of ATM machines.
I wonder what the collective energy usage of millions of bank branches and ATM's, and keeping those ATM's stocked with money, add up to?
Not to talk about the brainpower wasted on misleading customers, manipulation of markets and lobbying politicians to keep their eyes closed...
How does that compare with "crypto"?

PantherX desktop builds on LXQt and the 1.0.0 release of LXQt is available to all our users on "rolling" as of right now.
The LXQt desktop environment is available on virtually all Linux distributions and whatever you're running, I recommend you to give it a try: https://lxqt-project.org/release/2021/11/06/lxqt-1-0-0/.
For most distributions, it's yet another desktop, on PantherX, it's the only desktop - and get's all our attention.

Erhöhte Hardware-Anforderungen von Windows 11 sorgen derzeit für viel Diskussionen, da einige erst kürzlich gekaufte Systeme diese nicht erfüllen.
Dagegen sind die Hardware-Anforderungen der #OpenSource #Betriebssysteme moderat und können daher älterer Hardware zu Software mit aktuellem Patchstatus verhelfen. Für Desktop-Oberflächen gibt es darüber hinaus Alternativen mit explizit geringem Ressourcenbedarf.
So verbinden sich IT-Sicherheit und Nachhaltigkeit.
