Strit

Wouldn’t a high contrast dark theme do something like that?

I don’t have any sources, just anecdotal evidence. I work in an IT department for a large company and we see components give up because the machine runs stressful tasks for long periods of time.

Interesting results…

I would not recommend you heat your room/house this way, as it takes a huge toll on the PC hardware. It’s not really designed for creating heat, like the radioators are, so the components might “burn out” if stressed for long periods of time.

Forgot that distinction. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

Ah, my bad, forgot about the threads thing. :)

Matter sounds neat and all, but it’s still wireless on the 2.4 GHz band, so it will still have the same amount of noise that Zigbee does.

How are you feeding this cat, while you are gone?

Get someone to take care of the cat while you are away. Either relatives, friends or some kennel/petcamp. You will feel better knowing the cat is in good hands if it’s condition should worsen and the cat will feel safe.

I’m sure one of the self-hosted RSS servers can do what you need. Look up TinyRSS, FreshRSS and the like.

Just about any RSS feed reader…

I’m not a Kubuntu expert or even user, so I will just list op the general steps.

Boot into the live USB and unlock the encrypted drive. Make sure you have an internet connection too. Then chroot (change root) into the OS drive you decrypted and look at the logs from last update or even boot logs if posisble to determine what went wrong during the update. If possible fix the issue and complete a full update again (apt update & apt upgrade). Hopefully that should fix it.

Does your PC have any known hardware that requires proprietary drivers, like Nvidia or Broadcom?

They actually got a GTK3 based release out before GTK3 went EOL. Congratulations!

Can they update ti GTK4 based before that goes EOL? :D

Just to clarify. You system is not bricked. Bricked means that it can’t boot anything. It sounds like the update is not working correctly (eg the kernel is not fully loading).

You have two options:

1. Try to repair the current broken install (can be difficult depending on skill level)
2. Backup your data and “nuke’n’pave”, eg re-install it all.

Both options require a live USB with your distro on it (preferably the new version).

Yeah, I’m also waiting for a couple of “apps” to have NC 31 compatibility.

There seems to be links to some learning materials for it at the website.

As it is just a test (multiple choice and written text) I don’t think there are any preperation tests for it.

Mine is a small N100-based machine with 2 SATA SSDs in it. 16 GB RAM and it also runs many other services.

The better the hardware and connection, the faster the interface will be.

I’m on the latest episode now. Boy, the first couple of episode was rough, audio wise. Much better in the later ones. Do you ever plan on having guests or even co-hosts on the show?

I like when there is banter and discussion between people on podcasts. Makes it feel more organic. :)

Hadn’t heard about this podcast before. Seems like short monthly episodes with about 4 in the backlog. Subscribed to see how I like it.

It’s a matter of opinion and lots of it depends on your preferences.

Github: Where most developers are and therefore has the best network effect. Easy for new contributors. Gitlab: Got some traction after Microsoft bought Github, but is very similar, just not as popular. Codeberg: Completely open source (I believe) it’s the option with most respect for your privacy. Lacks the network effect until fediverse integration is complete, which I do believe the platform is working on. Cgit: A very simple git repository viewer. You can’t do anything from it, except see the repository. Some big projects use this, like the kernel.

There are more options, but some gets very specific after this.
