Its one of the oldest ways people disribute linux sources, and while it seems dumb, its actually good because regions with poor or no internet can also be served.

Im not a big fan of gnome, but this system monitor update is pretty legit

Why are we putting decentralized money on a centralized platform that has no way of insuring the money if it gets stolen…

Did deep sleep broke for anyone else recently or is it just me?

I was running KDE Neon on ThinkBook 15 G2 and had deep sleep working after adding mem_sleep_default=deep to GRUB_CMDLINE. It worked for a while until it didn’t. I didn’t do anything other than running regulat updates. Since couple weeks back, when going to sleep, it shows BIOS Recovery progress bar or something and restarts....

I was up until 2am last night because the air felt “wrong”

Im in the same boat. Been using wayland since around that version or a little later and it has only been uphill (except for right now since i am on the development build and Qt broke itself causing the system config menu to fail to load 80% of KCMs, but this is my fault for switching to alpha software lol)

My thing with blahaj is that while its cool that trans people identify with it, the fact that theyre trying to make it universally only be a trans symbol is a bit problematic.

My family has a few and none of us are trans as far as we know. Theyre comfy and cuddly as fuck, and I feel like its something that should be for “everybody” and not just one particular community. Like a bring-us-all-together kind of thing.

To be clear, I’d have just as much of a problem with it if it were becoming a symbol for some other completely unrelated community too, so it’s not the specific community claiming it I have an issue with (trans people are people, and a lot of y’all are really awesome)

The real answee is CI/CD DevOps pipelines.

What this means is that, when I as a developer push changes to my dev branch in my code repository, a bunch of scripts and stuff automatically test my code for a bunch of things, and if all of those tests pass, another script is run that pushes the code to my main branch and then compiles my app from the main code, and finally the last script pushes the compiled “artefact” out to the public (.exe’s out on a webpage to download, a linux package gets pushed out to repos and to Flathub, Android apps get pushed to the Play and/or F-Droid stores, Apple stuff gets sent to an Apple computer and compiled and uploaded to the App store, etc.)

It streamlines the development process and makes life on the developer so, so much easier while making sure bugs also get fixed for users much quicker and the app stays more stable.

Bro the AI neural networks have been shown to be building internal world models to be able to do what they do. How is that not thinking?

I am so sick of this anthrocentrism, as if we are special because we are humans. The computers are now doing the same mathematical processes our brains are doing. The LLMs can be compared to a small subsection of our brains. String enough neural network based AIs together with different tasks and youll get sentience.

Sentience isnt required for “thinking” to happen, thinking is one of the building blocks for sentience.

OpenRGB can handle a ton of stuff like this if I recall. I dont know if its hue extension is any good as i havent used it, but ive seen videos.

Plasma on Arch. Considering switching to Plasma 6 beta to help bugtest and get the new shinies early.

KDE is very receptive to community help! I can only think of one specific example in KDE history where a developer dragged their feet in the mud about a change the community wanted/submitted pull requests for, and thats the vertical HTML indicator bar in kmail.

Gnome on the other hand…

Sad to see that it’s GTK-based. Cool concept overall though, I may give it a shot at some point to compare to CoreCTRL

ADWSteamGTK makes steam look more inline with GTK (flathub.org)

I was watching InfinitelyGalactic recent video on Linux mint and he highlighted this program. Works really well I’ve always found steam to be a bit unruly within my desktop especially as I run the forge gnome extension, which further exacerbates the weird behaviours. Supports most of the big colour schemes so finding something...

What if the DE you’re using is on x11

If that’s the case, now you have to do what us wayland users have had to suffer through this whole time and set an environment variable to tell it to run in X11 mode :)

If an application only ships with Wayland, then… well, I guess you’re using Wayland now.

Wayland is X12 - this is a “get onboard or get left behind” proposition. Nobody’s forcing you to switch to Wayland, but life is going to really start sucking for you soon.

As with all Open Source, it requires someone who wants to continue to support it to do so. If nobody wants to support X11 anymore, then it’s either your responsibility to pick up where they left off and code the X11 stuff yourself (and ideally give back to the community that’s been giving to you this whole time), or pay someone else a lot of money to do it. You don’t get to complain about something being given to you for free suddenly not being maintained otherwise.

My guess is gonna be a Dr. Who or a Black Mirror villain that utilized deep psychological horror. Maybe one of the ones that made people into immortals or data-immortals with a near infinite amount of time combined with horrifying living conditions to break their victims.

Or Hades/other Greek gods and such.

There is already something in the works (that you can technically buy right now if you wanted), and it actively respects your freedom. Granted, as with everything in this ecosystem, its a very slow burn, so it’ll be a while before the software is actually good, but it’s already made massive strides from where it started.

I would say wait a bit and take a look at this later, but i do have one friend daily driving one now to some success (this wasn’t possible a year ago).

If you want to kill x86, you need to do what Valve and the Wine foundation did with Proton/WINE (mostly proton at this point though), but for x86 to ARM and maybe other architectures like RISCV (especially because the milkV pioneer is a thing).

There is too much legacy software that will never be converted that people still use to this day. Once you make it easy to transition, it will slowly but steadily start to happen.

Box86/Box64 are promising, but need help from contributors like you. If you want it to happen, go make it happen, or continue to live in the world you have now.

You basically need to employ network engineering level security - very tight firewall rules, use NAT where it’s available (IPv6 removes NAT, which ipv6 apologists will tell you is a good thing - they’re wrong, as it removes per-service level control and moves it out to per-device/per-NIC), and punch very specific holes to grant access where needed.

Prevent north/south traffic entirely, limit east/west traffic heavily

It’s not the knitting projects at home or shooting cans in the woods people have an issue with, it’s the legislature you vote for, the way you treat people when you’re not at home, and the kinds of people you support (people in aggressive positions of authority)

Damn, those layer lines are clean. Link to STL?
