Anyone been daily driving Bazzite?

Been keeping a keen eye on Bazzite as it seems like a good distro for people like myself who mainly use the desktop pc to play games on. But it doesn’t seem like a “typical” distro for a daily driver? How does Bazzite for example differ from Nobara which is another gaming-oriented distro? I’m just curious as I keep...

If the order of events were different, what might we be calling smartphones?

I had this shower thought earlier and I actually wanted to post it in that community. The name I came up with was SmartWalkman, but later I realized that Walkman is Sony specific, so I doubt other companies would’ve gone for that name, but I didn’t want to let this shower thought slip so here I am now asking you guys.

VMWare black screen after installing all updates with Fedora Linux

So I’m trying to play around with Fedora in a VM with VMWare Workstation Player (v17.5.1) but I’m running into a problem I don’t know how to solve. I use the Fedora 39 1.5 ISO file which is the most current version that’s available for download and after installing it in the VM everything works fine. I setup the install...

Would anyone be interested in a telegram channel for lemmy ? Do read ALL the edits as i have added much more context than i had put in the orginal post.

I can set it up . This idea popped into my head after i joined some good foss telegram channels and i personnely think matrix is not there yet also telegram does supports third party apps there are some privacy concerns but i don’t think it matters to our use case and it is all speculation but matrix instance hoster could be...

Raspberry PI Retropie or Batocera images?

Trying to find a ready to go image for a Raspberry Pi 5, either RetroPie or Batocera (or others I’m not aware of) for retro gaming. I know of Arcade Punks, but is there any other resource? Tried downloading a 128GB image from them and its taking forever due to no seeders. I did check megathread but wasn’t able to find...

OpenWRT gateway with TP-Link brand access points

Hello, I have a grievance and need a proper solution. It seems that TP-Link’s Deco mesh WiFi APs don’t tag the three SSIDs to vlans (and they see no operational issue with this), and I would like to make the most use out of the “iot” network they provide to separate smart devices from my own. I could do by IP and assign...

Booting from M.2 on HP EB 840 G2

Anyone have experience getting an HP EliteBook 840 G2 to boot from M.2? There’s only one setting in BIOS to enable it, and it’s enabled by default. Latest BIOS update. It’s in the boot order. It’s even seen when pressing F9 for boot options. I see MX23 but no grub (under legacy) or EFI files found in the ESP partition...

Why are mental hospitals run like prisons?

I was recently involuntarily held in a mental hospital where I went through prison like conditions (strip search, had to wear scrubs, was locked in a room outside certain times a day, stuff like that) and thankfully came out in one piece after 8 days of this crap. I was just wondering why we subject people to these conditions...

Can't reach my Android device from Linux Mint

I am trying to set up KDE Connect between a machine running Linux Mint and my Android-device. It does not show up, and it turns out I don’t receive any response if I ping it, and I have the same issue trying to ping the machine from my Android device (from Termux). I’ve tried two different Android devices, but no luck....

Man playing music out loud on train: What are our options? [Update: Solved]

There’s a man on my train this morning, and he’s listening to stuff out loud on his phone, like fully out loud, not even slightly subtle. The train is in Britain. He keeps listening to 5 seconds of an annoying song, then switching to another song. It sort of sounds like kids TV music. He appears dressed to go work in a fancy...
