thank you Linux for giving a damn about Bluetooth headphones (feddit.de)
For context, LDAC is one of the few wireless audio codecs stamped Hi-Res by the Japan Audio Society and its encoder is open source since Android 8, so you can see just how long Windows is sleeping on this. I’m excited about the incoming next gen called LC3plus, my next pair is definitely gonna have that.

[solved] How to set up absolute mouse movement mode on KVM
Hello! I use virt-manager as frontend for KVM, and I’d like to set the mouse movement mode to “absolute”, that should fix weird mouse problems in the VM for certains applications (games at most: minecraft mouse lock does not work with the default setting).

Ran into an issue with the latest arch Linux update, how to prevent in the futur
I’ve been using Linux for the better part of 4 years so I’m not new to it, but I’ve always learned stuff on an as-needed basis. Today I ran into an issue that I want to prevent in the future since I had a mini heart attack thinking about how my last backup on this system was… Never since I’m an idiot who forgot to set...

Happy 30th birthday, Slackware! (www.slackware.com)
Why is Linux so frustrating for some people?
Don’t get me wrong. I love Linux and FOSS. I have been using and installing distros on my own since I was 12. Now that I’m working in tech-related positions, after the Reddit migration happened, etc. I recovered my interest in all the Linux environment. I use Ubuntu as my main operating system in my Desktop, but I always end...

Does anyone actually use Enlightenment?
One of the first wow-moments when I first installed linux (2003ish) was Enlightenment. I though it was very pretty, and quite different from the mainstream WMs. It was presented as a feature, not a bug, that development was slow: the people behind it wanted to take the time it took to get it right....
Was Fedora always so unstable?
I was on Ubuntu for a year. No major issues, although I used the interim releases, which are supposed to be less solid than LTS. Then, a couple of months ago, I decided to switch to Fedora, just out of curiosity. Many people stated how Fedora is rock solid, Fedora is the new Ubuntu, etc. First some rpmfussion updates broke mesa,...

`pkill -9 -f firefox` won't work, what can be a possible explanation? (social.fossware.space)

Distro hoppers, how do you manage your config files?
I am currently trying to keep track of my config files in a repo to be able to get the configa back together easily if/when I change distro, but I am not sure if that’s the best way or if I should be using some tool to help me since I some programs keep preferences in other directories other then $HOME (at least I think so)....
