because it’s a pocket computer that fits in a small place and can drive an external display

maybe you could install a “portable” linux system on it. you may want to encrypt it though

I admit I didn’t read the article, but yes, I meant all corners, and not such those of windows but widgets amd popups too

bit out of character that this is what kde does not let you to customize by default

I’ve been told that opensuse tumbleweed has it. I’ve also read a suse forum post saying leap 16 will support offline updates, releasing in January, so they could be the first to support all of this with fs snapshots

Even just the updating from Discover can be broken on some systems

if you didn’t enable offline updates in systemsettings, then it’ll do roughly the same as you would in the terminal, so that’s not unexpected

that’s exactly how updates should work in every desktop distro. as an option of course.

systemd made it possible to install updates on shutdown.
packagekit enabled kde software to automatically obtain and prepare the updates.
plasma does the final touch nowadays to ask you on the reboot/shutdown dialog whether you want to install them.

Basically all the system is in place, with code from widely used parties. packagekit can even integrate with your filesystem to make a snapshot before install. It’s wonderful. yet, it seems as if only fedora supports this full setup right now? or is there anything else?

windows 12 now runs in the cloud! requirements: always available internet, with low latency and high bandwidth, and ignorance over privacy

what, you could move the taskbar across monitors in 10??

Win L. the next, superior edition of windows, if someone asks.

eastern, or middle, depends on how you look at it. orbán is not representative, he’s special

Sorry American readers, we in the real world use soccer metaphors, we are manly like that, even our women

As a European reader I highly doubt all claims in that sentence. refe what?

Actually I would have thought its the Americans that do this.

especially when you are connecting from the android client… how do I type a dash instead of an ü??

my 750 ti works. nouveau can’t increase the clock speed to the operating clock on boot, on boot the display on that card shows random data with colorful pixels, and nvtop does not see it either, but it works.

unexpected lesson, but that umask in a subshell is very clever!

I mean with something easier than OBS, but which works on KDE or any other desktop. something like OnTopReplica on windows

isn’t it possible with some external utility? OBS can capture individual windows with pipewire, and it can render that to a new window, so it must be possible with something easier too

I have heard less about phone chargers failing catastrophically. They also handle much less power (except the fancy ones), and I haven’t seen a hot phone charger adapter yet, but plenty laptop chargers of which some were just very warm, and some so hot just on its outsides that it was uncomfortable to hold it in hand.

this is why I’m more worried about laptop chargers

I would assume that landfill laptop manufacturers are trying to minimize costs even harder on the charger.

but what timeframe do you mean with “anymore”? laptops made in this decade, or the last 10 years, or something else? there’s plenty of old laptops that fitinto OPs category.

I think 5W probably can’t be achieved, maybe with chromebook-like hardware, but I guess GPIO could be solved with a USB accessory

in my opinion the bigger problem is the fire hazard of an unsupervised charger. I have seen enough that runs super hot, and even if it doesn’t, I just can’t trust them.

but what will fix the fire hazard of the charger? how will you be able to keep it plugged in 24/7?
