Every time I search for a USB key, I end up finding the ones flashed with OS ISOs! I don't have a normal key anymore lol
  • I got a 128GB dual connector usb-c/usb-a drive, and installed ventoy on it. I have my normal files and for my ISOs I simply put them in the ventoy folder. It works really well.

  • Upstreaming Linux kernel support for the Snapdragon X Elite
  • Oh wow, kind of like apple puts an M chip in iPads now, maybe a throttled version of a Snapdragon X chip could be used to make a phone. Didn't think of that but that would be very cool

  • Proton Mail Discloses User Data Leading to Arrest in Spain
  • How is proton being dishonest here? I'd like to read your point. They never pitched themselves as a way to protect yourself from the law, they always clearly said they are a confidential email provider, meaning they don't know what you are sending and receiving. It works like a doctor meeting, the information is very confidential, but not anonymous, it is tied to you even though nobody except authorized parties should be able to access this info.

  • Why is head hair different from other hairy parts?
  • It's how this question started loll

  • Why is head hair different from other hairy parts?
  • Makes sense, thx!

  • Why is head hair different from other hairy parts?
  • Yeah, but why is it much thicker and less dense? Same for beard and leg hair and every other hair I can think of as well, so for protection? From what (I can think of rubbing maybe)?

  • Why is head hair different from other hairy parts?
  • This post is made semi-jokingly, but it's still a real question of mine btw. In other words: why is ball hair all fucked up when head hair is so smooth?

  • Why is head hair different from other hairy parts?

    Why is my hair smooth and soft compared to the other hairs?

    Benefits of resolutions beyond 1080p
  • 1080p is just fine, but it's not good and definitely not great. If you've tried a high DPI display like the ones on MacBooks, you'll know what I'm talking about. Using a computer at 200% scaling just makes everything so much more pleasing to look at, especially the text. The pixels are gone, so everything looks sharp and smooth. I really cannot wait for 5K 27" monitors with high refresh rates to come out. This will likely be an instant buy from me, except if it's like 2 grand.

    General high DPI with the same relative UI scale as 24" 1080p, but with much sharper visuals:

    24" 4k 27" 5k 32" 6k

    And the good thing is you can always set your game to use half the resolution and it will look as if it was the lowdpi equivalent, because the pixels are simply grouped using 3 neighbors, no fractional scale BS.

    My laptop has a 3072*1920 screen that I use at 200% scale on Linux, and I wouldn't buy anything that doesn't work well at 200%. Apple seem like the only ones who understood this with MacOS that is designed to be used at 200% on basically ALL their retina monitors. this is why they have weird definitions, because they need to hit 200%, and based on the size of the display, a standard resolution won't reach exactly 200% and the UI will be too small or too large.

  • Zed Decoded: Linux when? - Zed Blog
  • They have not made a final decision on packaging it, in fact it's not even distributed at the moment, you need to compile it yourself. From what I've seen they will very likely package it as flatpak when it's out of alpha/beta

  • Zed Decoded: Linux when? - Zed Blog
  • No idea, especially since MacOS has limited OpenGL support and no Vulkan support, Metal is basically the only graphics API on Mac

  • I think Flameshot is very close to ShareX

  • System Extensions from Flatpak – Happenings in GNOME
  • I have learned about the existence of system services with this post, it seems pretty great. However my question is: would this allow flatpak apps that require a systemd service to run to be installed by 1 package? I am thinking of VPN apps for example

  • the new neostore UI is really great
  • Moving the sort and filter menu to the top header bar Moving the sideways tabs for app categories to the hamburger menu, that's what the icon suggests for me. Remove the app version from the app list, it just adds noise All the buttons on the app page are primary actions, they all have the same importance. For example, the favourite button is the same size and style as the launch button, in this case it could be a simple icon button to give the importance to the launch button. Also I think there is generally too much padding around the elements and that makes it look cluttered/busy when there is not much going on

  • the new neostore UI is really great
  • Heh, I mean its more modern than the current F-Droid app and it is definitely and improvement, but it really looks like it was made by a back-end developer that used material 3. The spacing and sizing of items is all over the place and that makes it look kinda goofy

  • Apple ecosystem is overrated, welcome to the gnome ecosystem 🤓
  • Wow!!! When I tried it a few months ago on my OP6 it wasn't nearly as smooth as this. In the replies of the linked post there is a link to a patch that adds better scheduling for the UI from 2 months ago. So cool to see it is now smooth enough to be used

    Huge cursor with 200% Scaling (Libadwaita 1.6?)

    Hey there, I don't know if any of you noticed something similar recently, but I have noticed my cursors have gone HUGE, like 2x what it should be at least. I think this is related to the affected apps using a beta version of Libadwaita 1.6, but I just wanted to confirm here before I create an issue in the repo. I use 200% scaling, GNOME 45, Fedora 39. Does anybody else have this problem? Thanks!!

    How it should look (in Pods, firefox and most other apps)

    !

    How it looks in Ptyxis

    !

    How it looks in Adwaita Demo (latest update, which bumped the libadwaita version to 1.6)

    Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer Revealed

    Rockstar has revealed the GTA 6 trailer earlier than expected, probably because it was leaked on Twitter. I think it looks amazing!!

    I can't wait to see what the community does with the images and what we will know almost for sure before the release
