It depends on the type of machine you’re talking about. Pet machines, bare metal or VMs, such as workstations, desktops, laptops are generally upgraded because it takes a while to re-setup everything. Cattle machines such as servers are generally recreated. With that said, creation of such machines typically involves some sort of automation that does the work for you. Setup scripts are the very basic, however configuration as code systems such as Ansible, SaltStack are much preferable. So if I had a VM that runs acme.sh, I’d write an Ansible runbook that creates it from a vanilla OS installation. I stop here for my own infrastructure. When we do this in cloud environments where we need to spin up more than one such VM and quickly, we’d have the OS install and Ansible run in a Jenkins job which builds a VM image that’s pushed to the cloud. Then we spin up ready acme.sh VMs from that image which takes seconds.
Its weird that its not consistently needed though, for the workspace and modifying existing gaps in real time, it looks like the postfix ‘px’ isn’t needed.
I’ve been using SALOME to create parametric 3D geometry. My use case is to parameterize my geometry features and export to STL files that I use with OpenFOAM. SALOME is integrated with a couple of grid generators, and I really like it’s 2D/triangulation/STL integration with netgen. You can specify faces for refinement to a desired mesh size, so for example around complex features you can create a fine STL mesh and on simple shapes you can have a really coarse mesh.
I’ve found the 3D modeling to be pretty straightforward, and SALOME usually does a pretty good job if you have to go back and modify previous features (something I’ve struggled with in FreeCAD).
I’ve also used FreeCAD for mesh generation, and it works ok but I’ve found the triangulation leaves a lot to be desired for splitting up the mesh as needed for OpenFOAM boundaries.
If you’re making STL files for 3D printing and you want a parametric CAD modeler for engineering parts, give it a try. If you want complex faces with artistic style, I would suggest Blender.
Try out LeftWM ! It’s a dynamic tiling window manager, and it’s a reamly cool project with a very nice community. It’s still a bit rough around the edges but it’s worth trying considering how much options it offers.
Unfortunately for this use case rough around the edges won’t do. If something doesn’t work instantly I get blamed for using nonstandard software so the most reliable is what I’m looking for really
For personal use I have no problem with rough around the edges (evidenced by my using hyprland on Nvidia lol)
I think you’re supposed to use the new notification panel now, which kinda works like those in android and ios, but it’ll take a while until 3rd party apps supporting them.
Their design was more mobile type wherr you don’t minimize windows, you just switch between them or between spaces. I’ve used Gnome forever, including the rough times on Gnome 3.0, and I’ve always used a system tray as well. Never liked leaving clutter everywhere and imo it goes against the minimal design. But thankfully easily extendible.
It looks like you’re still using PulseAudio? I’d highly recommend switching to PipeWire+WirePlumber instead, installing it should make your earbuds work automatically.
Don’t really have an Idea, but to add to your problem…
I have a 4K TV and 2 1080p Monitors and switching beneath them. Using NVIDIA graphics card with up to date drivers. All I can say, I’ve tried using KDE multiple times now, but always ended up getting weird Bugs, Micro stutter, etc on my 4K TV with KDE. So I always reverted Back to Cinnamon, GNOME, etc, because there it is working fine.
