Nice to see Incus doing well after canonical’s forced overtaking of the original project lxd.

Effects’ settings are being completely reworked: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/7473

legal challenges for the OpenStreetMap India

what is this about?

Found this just after posting this: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/3173#note_2456170204

Updates taking that much space is a bit surprising. I used to run linux mint on a 20 gb partition and usually had 3-4 gb space free. Does Linux mint comes pre-installed with flatpaks (you check with flatpak list)?

But 20 gb is on the very low side, you will run into issues on updates. You probably need to extend the linux partition by at least 10 gb.

For the printer issue, check the status of the cups service (sudo systemctl status cups).

I think you can disable the new header bar in VSCode (iirc from View).

The old one was too confusing for new users. It wasn’t clearly step by step like all the other installers on linux.

Not sure tbh but probably anything around the time you experience the issue. Check the time when the issue occurs, then look at the logs from around that time for any errors warnings. That should at least give you a clue.

Exactly this with me too. If they know me I have to hold myself to different standards and more small talk and stuff like that.

I have been trying to force myself to go to the same places but I usually fail. The only thing that works for me is going with someone else.

Having a constant noise in your head/ears. It was so normal to me I didnt question it for many years. I randomly asked my friends about it one day and found out most people actually dont have an old crt tv like noise in their ears (and that its the disorder tinnitus).

In my case its not very severe thankfully, I dont notice it unless Im in a silent room or Im actively thinking about it.

if you put the same NVME to one of the other slots does it still give this issue?

There is also bluefin lts (from the same ppl) if someone wants a more actively supported bootc system.

is there a setting for this in voyager?

you should also post it as an issue on the peertube repo: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube

Currently most cooperate linux companies are not in the business of selling linux desktop itself. Rather its linux for servers, administration, embedded things (like cars), and other enterprisey stuff. So at least at the moment they are not looking to profit of linux desktop users directly which has saved us from enshittiffication attempts.

But even if they in the future attempt to do something fishy, that most users dont agree with, I think by the virtue of how stuff works on linux it will be very easy for people to move to something else or a fork, and still get 95-99% of the same experience. This in turn will force companies to think twice before doing something like this.

A good example here is canonical/Ubuntu who has made questionable decisions in the past and each time they had to take it back. Even now, Snap due to its use of a centralized store is almost universally shunned by the linux community and is only supported maintained by canonical. While Flatpak is supported by the wider linux community with people from different projects contributing to it (though I sometimes worry about everyone centralizing on Flathub to the point where they are actively discourage other projects from launching/maintaining their own stores/repos).

This is why we need to build and champion tech that is resistant to control and enshittiffication. Then we dont have to worry too much about who is developing it.

It would be really awesome if they gave up AOSP governance to a foundation under the linux foundation but I doubt they would. They recently made Android development completely private.

are you using any sddm themes? splash screens?

Also check/share the logs (you can use ksystemlogs or gnome logs if you prefer guis).

Impressive work, thanks!

Are there plans to apply for it again? Gnome got a lot of mileage from it, would be really nice if they applied again.

And what happened to Sonny Piers? Did more info come out about why he got suddenly expelled from the foundation? It looked like he was doing a really good job with STF and I haven’t heard anything bad about him all this time.

KWin has gained support for the initial version of the Wayland session restore protocol

I found it interesting that they were merging support for a not-yet-merged protocol so I looked it up.

It seems the plan is to use the new experimental protocol thing that was introduced a while back:
