Vbox will create a bridge with my wifi card (I’m a laptop user with no option for a wired nic in the host).
I’ve never been able to get kvm to do that and haven’t found any working instructions online that a simpleton like me can follow
You can always try the ‘Contact’ form on the site, it’s not likely anyone here is going to be able to give you good advice
So what is your suggestion for a viable alternative that auditors will also accept?
I’m surprised that no one has commented on the Mastodon post’s author recommending people ‘use a privacy concious browser like Chrome’. What a way to invalidate her arguments
I don’t have a better answer for OP, but telling them to switch distros is also not answering their question at all.
I would highly recommend against installing a pirated version of Windows like BearOfATime suggests (at least via the second link he provided) - it could cause trouble for both you and your school.
There’s a docker image already that makes it easy to deploy and use, no compiling required.
Have you checked out Stirling-PDF?
This is why I prefer using Distrobox on my personal computer. No package for Signal-Desktop? No problem, run it through a Debian container using Distrobox.
I don’t think it’s comparable to Amazon Linux even, it’s more infrastructure oriented. From the Wikipedia page:
CBL-Mariner is being developed by the Linux Systems Group at Microsoft for its edge network services and as part of its cloud infrastructure.[5] The company uses it as the base Linux for containers in the Azure Stack HCI implementation of Azure Kubernetes Service
Another community will take its place one day, so no real value will be lost.
Sounds like it’s better for you to ask now so you can decline the job if they’re a Windows only shop.
The day Discord dies will be a massive loss for the internet.
What loss will that be? Discord’s value is the same as MSN Messenger - the history on Discord is already unusable for resolving issues, so when it’s gone people will just move to the next real-time communication platform that fills the same gap. It’s not a forum that people can search and find answers on years after discussions have happened and solutions have been posted.
One thing I would recommend is using a note taking app to create snippets of fixes or personalization changes for your OS that you’ve made. For me that includes things like how to add my laptop’s webcam to the blacklist and other things that I’d need to spend time looking up since I don’t do them that often.
This is one of the reasons I’m using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. It’s been a solid distro for me.

How about grammar errors?
Ah, looks like I should have used journalctl -b | grep stirling-pdf
A couple of reasons - I switched from Pop! OS to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, and the Docker version in the repository is 24.07 compared to 25.02 (the current version of Docker) with the official Docker site only supporting SLES on s390x, not Tumbleweed on x86_64. The main reason though is that it can run without root which is appealing; apparently I have a lot to learn on setting that up. The glib statements of ‘drop in replacement’ that I"ve seen isn’t quite accurate apparently outside of the commandline options.
I didn’t know enough to try running it interactively - that was a great suggestion and showed many access denied errors trying to access a log file path, so thanks for that suggestion.
Sounds like you need to familiarise yourself with PowerShell and Group Policy.
