Nice. I’ve been running Plasma 6 on my Arch test laptop. Not a huge visual difference, but it works fairly well.

Or the return of The Cube.

OBS already does screen recording on Wayland…

Strit, 7 months ago to linux in GNOME and AppIndicator/system tray

It’s part of the “focus” workflow. Having app indicators might distract you from your current task, so they don’t want them.

Maybe some foam under the case could elliminate some of those vibrations. Like pieces of a yoga mat or similar mats.

Strit, 8 months ago to selfhosted in In search for free domain I got one but some questions

1. I would assume you’d need to keep updating the DNS record to match the IP you have.
2. I’m not. Nothing like that is completely free. I wonder how they pay for the DNS…

Strit, 9 months ago to linux in Surface Go 2 with 4GB Ram and 4425Y worth it?

No worries. Just wanted to throw some alternatives your way, since I think €300 is a steep price for a 4 GB RAM tablet with no upgrade option. :) PS: Didn’t know stylus support was a thing. TIL about EMR.

Strit, 10 months ago to linux in I made it to Linux! What is your must-have FOSS or Free Software for linux?

I’m surprises no one has mentioned the ones I use most days.

• git (version control software development)
• openssh (for ssh connections to other devices)
• handbrake (video transcoding)
• Element (matrix client)

Strit, 9 months ago to linux in Surface Go 2 with 4GB Ram and 4425Y worth it?

Not x86_64 based, but the PineTab2 and PineTab-V are 2 alternatives. The PineTab2 is aarch64 (ARM) based while the PineTab-V is, you guessed it, RISC-V based.

Both 8 GB RAM versions go for about $210 on their website.

Strit, 9 months ago to linux in State of the Nvidia open source driver in late 2023?

As far as I know, only the kernel module was open sourced and in doing that Nvidia moved a lot of stuff from the driver, to the firmware/software part of their stack instead. So you would still need those, which are not open.

I know newer versions of Spectacle can do short video recordings. But that’s a Plasma app.

I didn’t know NixOS had official aarch64 repositories. 😜

Strit, 8 months ago to linux in What are you most excited when it comes to linux in 2024?

That’s already here with systemd 255 which released recently.
