We prefer the term ‘behaviorally creative’.

It looks like it’s “garbage” quality.

To be fair, that’s also true when running natively under Windows.

Don’t bother, that’s normal /sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

My two cents: Yes, it’s bad. The biggest hurdle to people not “intimately familiar” with their distro is A) what it’s using for DNS configuration and B) realizing that there are so many different ways in different distributions, and sometimes within one distribution, that you have to be very careful what googled results you follow. That many browsers do their own thing doesn’t help. I think the best way to solve it would be some desktop level abstraction like PackageKit where it doesn’t really matter what services does the resolving under the hood.

Same with Dolphin. It can even remember credentials in a safe manner in KWallet.

Be pro meatgrinder or we send you to the meatgrinder.

It’ll likely go away with an update. But you can always check xsession log, dmesg, etc to see if there’s a hint on why the screen locking process is crashing.

I have a different Brother MFC printer, but one thing which took me a while to figure out was, that the drivers required the 32 bit version of libc6.

Yah, or maybe because it smells like bullshit. All data is based on surveys from “normal” people (non-scientists), on a topic that is highly politicized, and by practitioners of one side often followed with what looks like religious fervor. The participants distribution is neither 50/50 for the compared options nor representative for the general populace of cat owners. It is pretty safe to assume bias in the reporting. Not a single cat was actually examined by the “researchers”. This has almost all the hallmarks of bad science. That it is published in a purportedly peer reviewed magazine, does not reflect well on that magazine.

I got a lot wrong initially reading that blog post (updated my comment accordingly). Though, I can sympathize with what he’s saying in that screenshot specifically. If I did maintain a popular open source project I’d rather completdly remove the social aspect than try and manage it.

Looks like I didn’t understood what I read. I should have paid more attention.

[…] the lead dev seems to be a fucking idiot.

How so? I mean, I am tempted to agree. Reaching out to that unofficial community to improve their conduct instead of just ignoring them is pretty idiotic. But, are you sure you’ve read the linked page and understood its content?

I didn’t pay attention when reading the linked page. Its author is/was the creator of wlroots, not hyprland. He reached out to the lead dev of hyprland which is very much associated with the discord community. I got so much wrong reading that …

Sorry for being contrarian.

Well, we live in a democracy: 9 out of 10 people enjoy bullying or don’t care about it. If you hate democracy, go to North Korea, snowflake!

(obvious /s is obvious)

In other non-news: Using a software doesn’t require visiting a loosely associated unofficial community. This has strong vibes of people wanting to be Christian and changing Christianity while being opposed to ~half the bible’s content if they bothered to read it. Just fuck that cesspool and move on with your life …

There is a distinction between regular updates and distribution upgrades. The latter have to be done manually. I know that distribution upgrades via GUI have been in the works; no idea if that is a thing yet.

As for what’s missing: The most important thing to keep in mind is that fedora releases only get security updates for 1 year after release + some grace period depending on the date of the n+2 release.

The extension pack isn’t though: it’s closed source and only free for evaluation, personal use, and educational purposes.

Thanks Captain Obvious.

No USB passthrough in VirtualBox without the extension pack. And unless you have a paid version it is a license violation to use the extension pack in a commercial setting. Take that with a grain of salt: it’s from the top of my head and it has been a while (years) since I touched VirtualBox. Since you are concerned about privacy, I’d suggest not touching closed proprietary software, like VirtualBox, at all whenever possible. Luckily, for virtualization in linux, that is perfectly possible. What you will want to look at is kvm/qemu. And maybe a handy UI to that like (qt-) virt-manager or gnome Boxes.
