Commented

Ubuntu just started renaming files while exporting (sending over mail, KDE Connect, Whatsapp web). The folder is my google drive, connected to my google drive. Sometimes it looses its file ending/type as well. The file is called something like: “1Kfhgsji2rjfIS-fi3oo598nf8ajlfoi.pdf”...

I’ve been playing around with Ollama in a VM on my machine and it is really useful....

Deaths and injuries have been reported after a gun attack at a concert hall near Moscow, Russian media say....

I am in need of some help. I’m trying to find a good portable monitor for my steamdeck. I don’t need it to be huge, 12inches minimum, but I’m not having much luck with my own research. I would like low latency, high refresh rate, and colors as close to the same as on the og LCD deck (which is what I have)....

I’m using contabo and the VPS I got is advertised as 1 Gigabit. When I do a speedtest or use iperf3 to connect to public servers I get pretty close to 1 Gigabit. But from my residential IP the speed drops down to 100-250 Mbit/s. My home internet connection can handle 500 Mbit just fine....

As the title asks, how does one actually use HDR for games after upgrading to Plasma 6?...

A couple of years ago with my old phone (running if I don’t remember wrong Android Pie) and my old laptop (running Manjaro KDE) I discovered KDEConnect and how it could enable a clipboard sharing feature similar to the one Apple provides between Macs and iPhones. It was great! Now, after having changed both my phone (now...

Basically what it says in the title. I did a lot of searching in Internet. I think small form factor computers are mt best bet. But I still feel they are costly for my purpose....

I always feel awkward when asked my favorite color, song, or any other type of trivial question. I have my standard responses I remain consistent with over time, but they are only consistent lies. Are those types of questions fundamentally awkward to you too?...

Since KDE plasma 6 with hdr support came out recently, I decided to check how some of the hdr tagged movies I’d watched previously look with that. I was surprised to see that they are rather dark, even in scenes under direct sunlight. I ‘tested’ the brightness by opening the movie in hdr and sdr at the same time and...

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...

When we make an exception for a particular gender, race, religion etc, we imply that an exception is necessary for this class. Which is to imply that this class is somehow deficient. (which is of course insulting and problematic). Am I the only one who sees this?

I really want to run ceph because it fits a number of criteria I have: gradually adding storage, mismatched disks, fault tolerance, erasure encoding, encryption, support out-of-the-box from other software (like Incus)....

My ISP seems to be throttling my VPN connection. Just started a week or so ago. Anyone have any tips for correcting this shit?...

So I have a new installation of fedora, which I reinstalled because gdm would freeze and prevent me from logging in and using my computer. I then noticed the same problem on the new installation. I noticed that using an older kernel worked, but system upgrades will break gdm again. I don’t want to have to never update my...

I get it: Voyager was about Voyager’s voyage and there’s a strong case to be made that it ended exactly when it should have....

Hey all! I’m wondering if someone can help me pick between these two apps. They seem to be the most commonly recommended Android front-ends for OpenStreetMaps, but I’m wondering what the pros/cons/differences are. Thanks in advance!

Me again!...

My friend and I used to play this early 80’s arcade game back in the day. I can’t for the life of me remember it’s name. Hoping someone here can help....

I might not deserve to say this, but I really wish Proxmox GmbH maintained an “official” terraform provider instead of relying on the community completely for it, à la Vates (XCP-ng). To be fair, it was the same with VMWare, so I’m not putting the blame on them....

Can I Use my Multimeter to Test How Much Power my Appliance (TV) is Using?...
