Okey then! I think it's a bad suggestion. Peace out

I was just curious about why you think this way. It's not a big deal to anyone except you. The KDE team already has a deadline for new feature before a big release in order to have enough time for testing and fixing. And this wasn't a big change or new feature so they decided to implement it. It's pretty bold to assume this was a huge change. Both of us can go check the source code but I don't care enough to do it.

The edit mode works a lot better now and it's not as buggy from my experience.

If you really care about stability then use Debian or any other distro that delays big updates and does backports to fixes. Exactly like you are suggesting. If you are using Arch or any other rolling release distro then this is what you signed up for.

The desktop edit change is a huge change for the developers and for the end user, with lot of background changes to make it work correctly, with lot of fixes after it.

How do you know this? The desktop edit feature was already in place. It's not new. They refined the UI in 6.1 and made the desktop zoom out

Let me guess. You're an American?

In Europe we have rules, regulations and consumer protections because our respective countries and the collective union actually give a shit about the people that live here.

Did you even read what this is about?

The European Commission used its statement to detail its concern "that Microsoft may have granted Teams a distribution advantage by not giving customers the choice whether or not to acquire access to Teams when they subscribe to their SaaS productivity applications. This advantage may have been further exacerbated by interoperability limitations between Teams' competitors and Microsoft's offerings. The conduct may have prevented Teams' rivals from competing, and in turn innovating, to the detriment of customers in the European Economic Area."

Vanilla OS 2.0 looks promising in my opinion. But it's not out yet unfortunately. It's an immutable distro that has integrated containers for all the main Linux distros. You can for example install Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch stuff on the same machine.

Yeah kinda. A container has a lot better performance than a virtual machine and can interact with your system

You must be American

Damn, even the chair got older!

Notepad++ is also pretty nice

They do actually. Right at the top they explain that

"Passengers re-board flight to Spain after eight-hour delay while social media posts describe flight crew mopping up mess"

There's also a video linked that show a trail of diarrhea in the aisles

"The Microsoft-powered bot says bosses can take workers’ tips and that landlords can discriminate based on source of income"

Well it ain't wrong. Business can absolutely do that and do absolutely do that. If they get caught they get a slap on the wrist and that's it.

As long as the punishment does not match the crime the American society will never get better. This is why proper rules, regulations and oversight needs to be in place. The "free" market will never do the right thing on its own.

What's up with all the negativity around flatpaks? I use Arch (btw) and I try to install as much as I can using flatpak. I think they are great. They are compatible, usually up to date, easy to install, easy to remove and it won't break your system. The sandbox can be edited to include more paths etc.

It's illegal to kidnap kids but Russia don't care about war crimes and human rights violations

The Plasma desktop is well supported and is pretty close to a Windows experience.

I hate Gnome with passion because it's nothing like Windows. I tested Ubuntu 2009 and the Gnome DE is what made me not like Linux. I did not know at the time that KDE Plasma also existed

Valve also made a really thought out and well designed product, which I think is pretty rare these days. The instant hibernation feature is just one example of why the Steam Deck is so much better than the competition

If Linux is to go mainstream I feel like KDE needs to be the default Desktop experience on distros. The Windows-like style is what the majority of people recognize and are familiar with and the KDE developers seems to care a lot about their userbase.

New users already has a lot to deal with and learn when it comes it Linux. They don't need their desktop environment to work against them too.

Wouldn't that be illegal in Europe with GDPR and other consumer protection laws?

Then the question should be; are we holding Russia, Israel and Ukraine to the same standards at Hamas?

Even that is a weird question because Hamas is not a country. It's a terrorist organisation.

I don't get the point you're trying to make here. I feel like you just want to hate on Ukraine. You are arguing that cluster bombs are illegal, which they are in most part of the world but not in Ukraine, and then crying about Ukraine using it, while blantly ignoring the human rights violations and war crimes committed. Things that are actually illegal internationally.

It's not correct in Swedish because of Sju (7) and Nio (9)

Are you high? S/he's paying 15 euro less than you each month with slightly worse upload speed than you but also with faster download speed

I am using Asuswrt-merlin on my router that does not support openwrt

Inside a sheepfold under the haystack is a cellar. If I understood the text correctly.

I would guess its selling point is that it's easy for beginners to use and look a little like Windows. My friends dad recommended it to me and I tried it for some time but I never liked and probably never will like Ubuntu.

Yes, it's great that every company can choose to not give a fuck about anything except for their bottom line. I mean who cares about everyone else living on this planet, right?

The only thing these companies keep proving is that they will never make the right choice unless there are proper rules and regulations.

Have you had any use for the screen protector? I got the 512gb model with anti-glare and it stopped working with a glass protector on top so I decided to just skip it. Still no scratches anywhere on my deck. I just keep it in the original case when I am not using it

Does it? I assumed it works like this but I could be wrong.

Three out of five members in the family has the same game. That means three people in the family can play that game at the same time.

Check out the btrfs filesystem with snapshots

This meme makes me think of a classic from Steve in Brickleberry

On Arch I installed the "auto-cpufreq" package and my battery life is fine

I have heard that Nobara Linux is great for gaming but I can not confirm since I use Arch btw

I can recommend Garuda KDE Lite. I had some problems with pacman keyring being outdated when installing and had to set it up but other than that it works great

You can use distros like Arch or Debian as a base and install KDE to it as a desktop. Many distros based on Arch or Debian come with a desktop pre-installed. Like KDE. My favorite distro with KDE is Garuda KDE lite (it removes the visuals from regular Garuda). It uses Arch as a base, just like Steam OS and works well for me to game on. Steam OS for desktops is something I think will become popular once the official release from Valve comes.

I remember my first time installing Ubuntu as a teenager and the fact that the desktop environment was Gnome made me hate it. At that age and time I wanted something familiar and Windows-like. Since then, 13 years ago, I always hated Gnome (and Ubuntu) and I don't feel like that is going to change any time soon.

The new SteamOS opened my eyes to KDE Plasma and now I am running Garuda on my main desktop. Eventually I plan to switch to Arch and "make my own distro" or just use SteamOS once it gets official desktop release.

From my experience on the Steam Deck is doesn't matter if I run low graphics or medium graphics (some high settings) the performance is almost the same

I think you should try VanillaOS 2.0 when it comes out

You could set up a development environment using distrobox in an arch container and keep the downgraded packages installed in there if it happens again

I use a betterfox userscript for hardening Linux Firefox

You can make a separate home folder for the distrobox container if case you don't want to get your main home folder dirty
