The repost is a week late, but yeah

If you know how to use VB, using Virtmanager wouldn’t be too different. You’ll have to find how these are packaged for your distribution, but the instructions for everything else on the wiki will be helpful regardless of the distro

You can keep your existing partition, and just mount the disk in a libvirt/qemu on kvm setup. Here is a good place to start

This kind of announcement is just a bandaid for a self-inflicted wound. They worded it as if it’s a “hehe here’s a free little bonus”, after locking half the planet out of playing games, that don’t even have any online capability outside of the mandatory authentication. Disgraceful

Especially on Linux, libvirt/qemu on kvm is a no-brainer. It works, it’s fast, the setup is practically effortless

There are plenty of uses for machine learning, that are genuinely helpful and useful, but the way people shove generative AI, and surveillance down everyone’s throat needs to stop

They definitely exist, and there is progress, but even in the best case scenario, you’re far from being able to comfortably daily one. postmarketOS is probably the most consistently updated project at this time

I really enjoy erdtree as a ls replacement

Turns out free speech costs 40% more now

My experience is aligned with this. I’ve barely had any issues at all, especially in the 6.x cycle.

There was one pretty annoying panel bug, which was caused by Nvidia, but i’ve sent them reports, and they fixed it in the next driver release. The other one is a thirdparty addon, where under a certain setting combination, your shell would occasionally restart, but again that’s not a Plasma bug

For nix-darwin specifically, the cleaned up build process, and SDK packaging is nice. It hasn’t eliminated all the issues, but a lot of those are less of a fault of Nix, and more an issue with macOS design. Hoping they can be addressed somehow, but for now, the issues with workarounds are tracked.

And just in general, Python has kind of been a pain in the ass to understand, so any improvement is exciting, as i’m still learning how things work here.

A bunch of packages I want got officially merged or updated during this release cycle too, and as much as I appreciate thirdparty flakes, I don’t want to rely on them too much

Been a very exciting release.

The nix-darwin upgrades come along right as i migrated my Mac to Nix, but even outside of that, all the package and module merges are always welcome. All my machines run Nix now, so the less work I have to do manually, the better

People continue to buy it, so they will continue selling it. On top of that, gaming isn’t even their biggest market, so we stopped, it wouldn’t put a dent into their business.

It’s a big shame though

Can’t wait to try this one out. Every other fitness tracker i’ve used has either been acquired by some soulless corpo, or just gone down the drain anyway, reaching an unusable state in both outcomes. Most of them can’t even display basic calorie information without dishing out 10$ a month anymore

Twitch is garbage, so you moved to a platform ran by a gambling company, where rules practically don’t exist, and the majority of the userbase is vehemently sexist and racist? That’s a level of mental gymnastics I genuinely will never understand

I replaced docker with podman on all of my systems, and so far i really have nothing to complain about. Works exactly as advertised

I use Bibata however I don’t really have a strong preference for any specific one.

Going to return to this thread a bit later, just to see if other people link something interesting

My mom got my XPS9350 i used to bring to uni, and at the moment, it has Fedora in it.

She repeatedly claimed it was a lot more straightforward for her to understand, compared to the endless inconsistencies and issues on Windows. All things considered, she is fairly tech illiterate too.

Plus it’s easy for me to remote into, in case something breaks
