Die geschmeidigste Version war, glaub ich, die 14. Ich bedauere, dass man danach den #Unity #Desktop aufgegeben hat.

Er hat m. M. nach ein innovatives Bedienkonzept gehabt. Schließlich möchte ich kein besseres Windows, weshalb ich mit dem #KDE Desktop oder #Linux #Mint nie richtig warm geworden bin. Das sind trotzdem gute Projekte.

Could you please do something ?

Fedora 43 is expected to be released within weeks. I decided that the late stage of the beta process was a suitable moment to upgrade my server. Several days of debugging and configuration changes ensued, but not due to its being a beta version. The most complex problem was to adjust to the new (backward-incompatible) syntax of the Dovecot 2.4 IMAP configuration. Thanks to participants on the Dovecot mailing list for recognizing one of my errors, I was able to fix the configuration and return my email service to normal. #Fedora #Linux #DovecotIMAP

@frameworkcomputer sponsors a transphobic developer: Vaxry, developer of the Hyprland compositor.

xcancel.com/FrameworkPuter/sta…

Vaxry has been known to harass trans ppl. If Framework is putting money towards that, maybe I won't put money toward Framework anymore. Maybe you shouldn't either, until they stop this.

Transphobia is not appealing, especially for the kind of people who would normally be interested in Framework's devices.

I heard that KDE could use some fundraising campaign artwork, so calling all artists who may follow me:

  • If you like KDE stuff like Krita or Plasma etc..
  • And if you like Konqi and Katie

We could use some artwork: Drawings of Konqi and Katie for fundraising efforts. Here is a good example: community.kde.org/File:Konqui-…

The promo folk will explain more what they need specifically, I'm mostly a messenger.

It is volunteer work (so very likely no payment) and the artwork will have to have permissive license such as CC-BY-SA. And I understand for many artists that's a lot to ask.. But you never know if you don't ask right?

There's different style campaigns for different holiday seasons. If you're interested, let me know here or my email, and I'll give out details how to contact the promo team. You can also chat with them directly through their Matrix channel: community.kde.org/Get_Involved…

Here's examples of various artwork we have: community.kde.org/Promo/Materi…

Edit: I don't think there's participation limit either. :)

And yes, this makes you a contributor to KDE! :)

One of my posts here gained popularity in the #Flathub vs. traditional #Linux distributions debate and I still stand by my claim that @flathub enforces its rules more strictly than Linux distributions and checks maintainers more thoroughly. None of my #Fedora packages have ever been held for review after being accepted into the repositories.
Even though it's a complication for me as a maintainer, I approve it.

#Firefox :firefox: unterstützt nun unter #Windows die Einrichtung einer Website als sogenannte #WebApp (support.mozilla.org/de/kb/web-…). Dafür gibt es rechts in der Adresszeile einen neuen Button: „Tab zur #Taskleiste hinzufügen“. Danach taucht die Website unten in der Taskleiste (und nicht mehr im Browser) auf und wirkt wie ein eigenes Programm. Wer das grundsätzlich nicht möchte, kann diese Funktion auch deaktivieren: about:config aufrufen, dann nach browser.taskbarTabs.enabled suchen und auf false stellen. 💡 Momentan gibts die Web-App-Funktionalität nur unter Windows. #MacOS und #Linux sollen aber folgen.

I found this screenshot again and I still think it's brilliant. The best OS overview I've ever read.
#Linux #FreeBSD
Screenshot of a Reddit comment saying this: Time for my OS opinion that's guaranteed to be unpopular with someone... Sun Solaris used to be the OS that required overpriced proprietary hardware and still couldn't compete with Linux. That OS is now MacOS. MacOS used to be the colorful and friendly walled garden OS that your non-techie parents would enjoy but was completely useless to you as a power user. That OS is now Windows. Windows used to be the OS that could run a lot of apps, but was a headache to setup and maintain correctly and would sometimes blow up for no reason. That OS is now Linux. Linux used to be the techie and developer oriented command-line OS that was lacking in desktop apps and might not support your hardware, but once you got it going, was rock solid and had no limits. That OS is now FreeBSD.

Ik zat vanochtend net een halve poging te doen om dochterlief naar Linux te helpen. Haar leptop is stuk dus dit is een mooi moment voor verandering.

Maar eigenlijk weet ik niks van Linux. Net zo min als de dochter heb ik veel zin in systeembeheren.

Ik zou wel tips willen welke tweedehands laptop geschikt zou zijn voor een verse Linux-installatie waar een eh, normaal mens ook mee kan werken.

Dochter: "Mijn minimale eisen heb ik niet in specs gekwantificeerd voor me maar opzich als zo’n ding 100 tabbladen firefox, een statistiekprogramma en zes worddocumenten tegelijk aankan zit ik goed.

"For decades, the phrase “Year of the Linux Desktop” has been tossed around like a tech industry punchline. But now, it’s no longer a meme—it’s a movement.

This isn’t just about numbers—it’s about momentum. GNU/Linux’s desktop share hovered below 2% for years. But since 2020, it’s been climbing fast.

From the lens of @purism this shift is more than market share—it’s a cultural awakening."

Have you ever run a sanity check on server? Perhaps had a service that’s hung?

Maybe you’ve had a housekeeping script, or wondered if a particular platform supports something natively?

Well, next time you look in the mirror, you’ve got a low-down, dirty bigot looking back at you and you should be ashamed at the incredibly insensitive language you’re using.

According to the new Inclusive Language Guide they’ve endorsed, most of the language that IT people use to discuss services, software, and projects is downright disgusting.

Check out some of the condemnations:

Instead of “black hat” and “white hat”, you must say “malicious hacker” and “approved hacker”. Ironically hacker itself is a co-opted word whose originally meaning has been subverted.
You can’t say “housekeeping” because…people shouldn’t keep house? Strange, because “housekeeper” is hardly a gendered term. Instead you must say “cleanup” or “maintenance” or “logistics”.
“Sanity Check”? How dare you, you ableist.
You can’t say “normal” or “abnormal” because…reasons? Instead you say “typical” or “atypical”.
“Dummy”? You might as well be spitting on people in wheelchairs.
“Hung” is labeled “violent Language that practices a degree of aggression”.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this was an Onion article, but it’s something the Linux Foundation actually believes in.

If everyone took these suggestions seriously, they would quickly turn into euphemism treadmills. Today we can’t say “normal” – tomorrow they’d be horrified someone says “typical” and would be suggesting a new term.

But really, who would take these ideas seriously?

“Avoid using idioms and jargons,” is another key recommendation. I’m not sure how someone has a conversation about information technology without using information technology jargon. Can we no longer use terms like “CPU”, “network”, and “compiler”?
Suggestions

The list seems to have a lot of room for improvement, in my opinion. Here are some terms they missed:

Horsepower: deeply inconsiderate to horses (and those who identify as equines), since they did not consent to their strength being commodified for mechanical comparisons.
Primary/Secondary: these terms practically scream hierarchy, if not patriarchy.

Firewall: may be alarming to those with a history of house fires or fear of walls. I suggest using “Boundary of Warmth.”

Bug: derogatory toward insects, portraying them as inherently problematic when they’re just trying to live their best lives.

Thread: offensive to knitters, as it trivializes the noble art of textile creation for mere CPU scheduling.

Deadlock: insensitive to those dealing with jammed doors or locksmith trauma. And the violence!
Fork: can cause distress to spoons and knives by implying cutlery hierarchy.

Cloud: could upset people who live in perpetually sunny climates and feel cloud-excluded.

Ping: might offend submariners who still have flashbacks from Cold War sonar drills.

Mouse: unfairly stigmatizes rodents, who do not deserve to be synonymous with point-and-click servitude.

I've finally just submitted the RFC series for USB3 support on Apple Silicon machines. RFC because the entire Type-C machinery spans multiple subsystems and has quite a few quirks which makes the entire thing rather annoying to deal with and I'm not 100% convinced about the current approach.

This also includes some initial work for DisplayPort-altmode and USB4/Thunderbolt but both will require much more work after this is upstream, so don't get your hopes up just yet.
