Exposure time/ shutter speed is capped

Got banned from ml and made a meme about it. Thought you guys might appreciate.
Since I was curious I checked the actual amount of upvotes and downvotes of my post on mbin. It got 56 upvotes and 66 downvotes according to them since I was curious. Seems I hurt their little ego when I mentioned blocking their instance.

I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier but here I made a Spotify collaboration list! The only rules are 1) don’t remove somebody else’s song and 2) don’t spam-add songs....

will ad-blockers in chromium follow suit when chrome discontinues them?
Hey all, I was about to setup uBlock Origin in chromium, when I saw the notice that it may soon be ended due to not following best practices, etc. I looked this up and some articles and posts state that Chrome is discontinuing content blockers / ad blockers soon.

Fedora KDE suddenly wont boot properly
I am running Fedora KDE 40 alongside Windows 11 23H2, (the PC in question is also sometimes used by a few other family members, which is the reason I still have Windows) When I tried restarting into Fedora today, everything appeared fine, I selected the normal boot fedora option in GRUB, and the normal loading screen showed up....

First off, if there is a better place or forum to ask this, I will take suggestions. I haven’t gone to any Linux forums because most of the ones I looked at did not want to support anything specifically Windows related, and this is primarily an issue in Windows....

Gamescom. What did those of us who just watched Opening Night miss on subsequent days?
I remember planning to watch some showcase on the 28th. But I forgot and now it’s past and I can’t remember what I was gonna watch. And there’s no calender I can find of what showcases were happening on what days.
