A lot of swiss government data is also stored in AWS, made a few headlines during covid because we "delegate our data to the americans"

The link you posted leads to a 404, do you have any mirror available?

Crystal Linux. It is a arch based OS which means you get to take advantage of the huge amount of packages in the AUR with the added benefit of being easy to install and sensible defaults.

It comes with amethyst (`ame`) as AUR helper pre-installed, which is also in my opinion the best AUR helper out right now (and it's written in Rust!).

Automatic BTRFS snapshots before package upgrades have saved my butt once already and I couldn't live without them.

100% recommended

This may be an unusual recommendation but a music subscription service such as Spotify, Tidal or Apple Music.

Music helps me personally to be way more productive when working on IT problems.

I remember in high school our teacher showing us enthusiastically a documentary about Gorbachev.

It was unbelievable how he managed to end the iron curtain and come closer to the west at a time at which it was thought to be impossible.

Trurely commendable. It is sad to see how Putin nullifies all of his effort and that he had to witness it now shortly before his death.

May he rest in peace.

GitArena - https://github.com/mellowagain/gitarena

GitArena is a GitHub/Gitea/GitLab clone written in Async Rust using Tokio and Actix-Web on the backend and server-rendered HTML with htmx for interactivity.

I commented on the "Who wants to be hired?" thread of this month with this being my main portfolio show-off project. It worked and I have gotten already 2 job offers now.
