@ravikiran_dev7 Install the Xubuntu desktop, its just so much friendlier

I am a window user and I just installed Linux for the first time. What should I do next?

@CR1337 Xubuntu for Desktop, Debian for servers. Simples

Linux distros by difficulty, for anyone who wants to give Linux a shot, but isn't sure what distro to pick:

@archeroo No, it's exactly what I thought #stfc should do. Need to keep the momentum going, last time we had the international break or weather break, we lost form. Also we need to keep the games spread out and not bunched up. Scanlon not playing. Mabete fringe, Hoillet only plays 45 mins

Anyone else puzzled why we haven’t called off Saturdays game with 3 players on international duty and some injuries? Seems stupid to not have an extra week to recharge/recover

@onu_slim Speaking from my experience this is nonsense. I am actively doing, and planning lots of things to do in the next 10 years, I don't have time to think about all the many things I've done in the past, too much still to do, make the most of every day! Carpe Diem!

Something I have noticed about age 67 is that life becomes painfully quiet, and in that quiet, the truth finally speaks. The noise is gone, the rush is gone, the need to prove anything to anyone has faded. What remains is you, your memories, and the weight of the choices you made when you still had time. At that age, you don’t argue with reality anymore, you sit with it. At 67, people are not chasing life, they are reviewing it. The conversations are slower, the laughter is softer, and sometimes, the silence says more than words ever could. You begin to feel the absence of people who once filled your world, and you realize that time didn’t just pass, it took things with it. It is also the age where regrets become clearer than dreams. The chances you didn’t take, the love you didn’t express, the time you wasted trying to be everything except yourself, these things don’t shout, they sit quietly in your chest. And yet, there is a strange kind of wisdom that comes with it, a deep understanding that life was never about how fast you moved, but how well you lived. At 67, the truth is no longer negotiable, it simply stands in front of you, asking one question: Did you truly live, or did you just pass through time?

@paulw36 My exact thoughts

Can we wrap Taffs in cotton wool and bubble wrap during the week and then unwrap him on match day #stfc

@stfc_1969 Why? Scanlon and Mabete hardly feature and Hoilett only plays 45mins. Better to keep the schedule I would have thought

I guess with Mabete, Hoilett and Scanlon called up Fleetwood could now postponed? #stfc

We need your help to #SaveDenby! We are sad to share that we may be forced to close and a British institution could be lost. We need your help: 1. Share this post 2. Sign the government petition 3. Buy Denby 4. Visit us at the Pottery Village Read more: denbypottery.com/pages/save-den…

@Official_STFC Finally Holman gets to start!

Junior Hoilett has received an international call-up to represent Canada during the upcoming March FIFA international window ❤️

@LoathedStranger Taf best game for #srfc immense at back. Ripley and JKL outstanding. Kilkenny and Nichols were really off it tonight.Midfield was weak, kept losing the ball. Holman must start over Hoillett.Palmer had a good game. McGregor and Kirkman good.Batty needs a rest. Funny game football

👑 VICTORY 👑 0️⃣ Gillingham 2️⃣ #STFC Delight as Town leaves.Priestfield with three points for the first time since 1986. Recording on-the-whistle so concise MOTM shouts and hot takes please. Cheers, RPU

@henrywinter I'm afraid many people will think that there is corruption involved - given the legal cases that are involved over much more minor infringements of rules (e.g. Swindon Town being kicked out of the Vertu Cup this year), this has to see the forensic disinfectant of sunlight

At some point, senior Premier League execs have to offer a proper explanation in public for their leniency towards Chelsea. They owe an explanation to fans of clubs punished more harshly. They owe an explanation to those clubs who did abide by the rules. They have to offer some explanation as to why PSR breaches are deemed far more serious than acts of "deception and concealment". Yes, these are the offences of a previous regime at Chelsea. But inconsistencies run through the PL's defence and their reputation is damaged. They can’t hide from a controversy of this magnitude.

@Official_STFC Taf 😍

Here's how #STFC line-up to face Gillingham this evening:

@SBeaverss @themichaelowen Lets hope we get another one of those tonight!

Yeah we tried that @themichaelowen #readingfc

@JohnSimpsonNews Diplomatically I suggest it may be 'postponed' for a plausible reason

A big decision coming soon for Keir Starmer: can Britain really allow the King to pay a state visit to the US when Pres Trump is so publicly insulting to the UK?

@SustainableTall Because they are shite

London has built lots of flats…but few people want to buy them Since 2014, some 20,000 flats have been completed in Wandsworth. But nearly 40% of modern flats there have sold at a loss in the last 5 years archive.is/A3rfy

@PolitlcsUK Good lad

🚨 WATCH: The Irish PM defends Keir Starmer as Donald Trump repeats he is "not Winston Churchill" "Starmer has done a lot to reset the Irish-British relationship. I do believe he is a very earnest person who you have a capacity to get on with"

@henrywinter Not very realistic - sounds like it has been written by some risk averse person who has no real experience of what L1 / L2 clubs are like

New licensing system for the 116 clubs in Premier League, EFL and National League requires them to hold “sufficient resources” to steer them away from any potential “cliff edge”. Level of risk will be assessed on a club-by-club basis by Independent Football Regulator. From 2027/2028 season, clubs in the top five divisions will require a licence from the IFR in order to compete. Clubs need to show liquidity to meet their financial commitments and cope with "stress" such as relegation or withdrawal of owner funding. Club liquidity will be monitored on an ongoing basis by the IFR which can also impose measures such as “reducing expenditure or restructuring debt”. (Players not counted as liquid assets as “clubs cannot readily realise their value outside transfer windows”). Clubs must also show evidence of “having meaningfully consulted" with fans. “It cannot be right that so many clubs exist on a cliff edge where one change could threaten their entire existence – fans should be debating formations not finances,” says IFR CEO Richard Monks. “Our licensing regime will ensure that club risk is managed appropriately, creating a more stable environment for growth and investment.” Four “key risk factors” that IFR expects clubs to “monitor and mitigate” are... *Business Model – funding gaps between income and costs. *Liquidity & Cash flow – the ability to meet short-term financial obligations. *Solvency and Debt – risks to operating in the medium to long term. *Governance – adequacy of financial decision-making and risk management.

@DurhamWASP Sundays could be dull, but now they're no different from any other day, no day of rest. I rather wish the Sunday Trading Act 1994 had never been passed. Ironic that it was John Major's government, he of “old maids bicycling to Holy Communion through the morning mist” which did it

Sir John Betjeman, Thank God it's Sunday

@LifeOfAKitman is this likely / typical?

@TownEndersSTFC Interestingly that would also agree with what a fan who has been following STFC/football for years would think. My current estimate for final points total for Swindon is 76, based on the remaining fixtures. Alternative requires CamU to lose form and Swindon to gain - unlikely

Results this week mean that #STFC's chance of automatic promotion have reduced from 17.9% to 6.2% Chances of a play-off place have increased from 67% to 69%. townenders.com/stat_elo_table…
