Topics for a Linux intro course in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] tla@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

+1 for the FOSS philosophy and why that's important when it comes to privacy (ie closed source crypto implementation back doors etc) + full system control, lack of spyware etc. KVM for the VM demo - keep it Linux, right? Introduce the concept of how almost everything in Linux is a file and can be read from / written to. This is important when understanding pipes. Show pipelines - logical && ie cat x | grep y | grep z. Logical || ie grep -E 'x|y|z' Useful commands like top and ps. Explain selinux and why it's a good idea.

Question about gre tunnels in c/linux@lemmy.ml
