August 16, 1993, Ian Murdock's announcement that started it all (https://wiki.debian.org/DebianHistory?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=Debian-announcement-1993.txt#CA-c114de97e513912ade3e21cedd1d833957c8edf6_13). January 1994, Ian releases the Debian Manifesto (https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/project-history/manifesto). April 1, 1994, Ian was struggling to keep up with it all and needed a break (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1994/msg00005.html). March 1996, Ian steps down as Debian Project Leader (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1996/msg00003.html). Leaving Bruce Perens to take up the job. The FSF pulls sponsorship (https://groups.google.com/g/comp.os.linux.misc/c/A30TG4KRx4Y/m/WKi_Yx0iuTAJ) but later the FSF "resumed cordial relations" (https://www.debian.org/intro/cooperation). June 17, 1996, Debian 1.1 is released (https://web.archive.org/web/19970616164301/http://www.debian.org/1.1/release.html) with the first ever codename based on Toy Story characters. It was named Buzz (https://wiki.debian.org/DebianBuzz), after Buzz Lightyear. A list of all the Debian releases (https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/project-history/releases.en.html). February 1, 1997, A board of directors had been elected (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00000.html) for Software in the Public Interest. February 20, 1997, Debian shows its intent to ratify a constitution (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00005.html). July 1, 1997, Debian is really launched into space (https://www.debian.org/News/1997/19970626a) this time to monitor plant growth in microgravity, sending video and other data (https://www.linuxjournal.com/article/2186) back home. December 2, 1998, Debian ratifies a Constitution (https://www.debian.org/devel/constitution.1.0). At the beginning of 1999, Wichert Akkerman was elected Debian Project Leader and started with giving Debian a permanent identity. Logo on debian.org as of April 14, 1997 (https://web.archive.org/web/19970414140629im_/http://www.debian.org/Pics/debian.jpg) January 24, 1999, the logo license for Captain Blue-Eye, expired again (https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/1999/4/mail#mail2). February 4, 1999, a Logo contest announcement (https://www.debian.org/News/1999/19990204)! May 3, 1999, the submissions were in. (https://www.debian.org/vote/1999/vote_0004) Captain Blue-Eye was thought to be too Linux-specific (https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/1999/14/mail#mail1). June 8, 1999, The iconic swirl that we see today won the vote (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/1999/07/msg00005.html). July 6, 1999, dpkg version 2, which was hinted (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/1999/05/msg01405.html) at by Ben Collins back in May, is now officially a thing and the specifications are out there boasting a more modular design (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/1999/07/msg00012.html). Debian weathered the Y2k storm with no major problems (https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2000/1/). In October 2001, LAN Comp Systems begin mastering Debian 3.0 on DVD (https://slashdot.org/story/01/10/25/2250255/debian-on-dvd) ahead of the official release. Debian 3.0 was delayed because of broken boot floppies (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2001/04/msg00004.html). 2002, the first net installation images were available (https://people.debian.org/~ieure/netinst/). 2007, through a disagreement with Mozilla on backporting security fixes, would be replaced (https://wiki.debian.org/Firefox#Iceweasel) by the free-software version, Iceweasel. 2013, the trailing 0 on the major release is dropped (https://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2013/05/msg01020.html). Minor releases will continue adding the point, as in .1, .2, etc. Also in 2013, multi-arch support (https://www.debian.org/News/2011/20110726b) is added. 2020, Jonathan Carter (https://jonathancarter.org/) was elected Debian Project Leader and has been reaffirmed three more times, and is currently serving as Leader.

Jupiter Broadcasting covered it in Linux Action News too. (https://linuxactionnews.com/280) The question of why isn't KDE Plasma the main DE for a main distro comes around every once and a while (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/x8m0bt/comment/injemm2/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3).

Mozilla's pitch (https://blog.mozilla.org/en/privacy-security/privacy-security-tips/your-childs-name-makes-a-horrible-password/). Brian Krebs has this to say (https://krebsonsecurity.com/password-dos-and-donts/). You can check your passwords against Have I Been Pwned (https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords). If you use Bitwarden/Vaultwarden, you can use the reports (https://bitwarden.com/help/reports/) to check exposed, reused, and weak passwords.

We pitched Gnome Web a couple of episodes ago (https://www.linuxuserspace.show/315). Version 110, Firefox (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/110.0/releasenotes/) got the addition to import bookmarks, passwords and history from Opera, Opera GX, and Vivaldi. Vivaldi makes improvements to their Window Panel (https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-5-7-on-desktop/). Brave does HTTPS everywhere (https://brave.com/privacy-updates/22-https-by-default/). Microsoft Edge adds Adobe Acrobat (https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-edge-will-switch-to-adobe-acrobats-pdf-rendering-engine/). Feedback "ee" "dee", gotcha 😉 Turns out we were the joke instead of making one. Apologies. Anonymous Listener suggests ownCloud ownCloud (https://owncloud.com) We'll check it out and report back. Daniel M. says... Podman (https://podman.io) Daniel's document (https://github.com/TeamLinux01/melzak_site/blob/main/SETUP.md) Frank W. says... Brave is great and cheer from the Great White North, eh! Thanks Frank! Eric M. on Youtube says... Pixar and other animation studios use RHEL for their workstations. In Podman, the pod comes from kubernetes. A pod is a group of containers that are in the same namespace.
