  • I prefer a simple style (just the folder icon, without the dolphin); but everyone have their own preferences. So… 🤷

    As always, it can be customized for your own taste.

  • Good information here about EXO, and ChromeOS:

    Is Exo going to continue to exist as a Wayland compositor? I figured it was going to be retired as ChromeOS turned into an Android overlay...

    Fangzhou Ge 1 week ago

    Yes, becoming Android overlay removes Chrome from the OS so Exo is going to retire. We still have to maintain Exo experience until the all ChromeOS device reach AUE or be updated to Android. Latest device AUE date I see are in 2033.

    If folks don't want Exo be listed we'll just have Chromium here. Edited 1 week ago by Fangzhou Ge

    I'm fine either way, if the Aura Shell is going to be around for a while, then it makes sense to include it.

    I don't even knowed that Chrome OS is/will be replaced by Android as an overlay.

  • Welcome. This is normal. It will be worst later (worst vision, worst reflex, laziness, etc). Just enjoy that your are alive and you will see new iterations (maybe HL3, someday) and new good games. You can not go back to your twenties or beyond, with all your over-the-top reflex, stress-free, free-time, and un-experienced view to be easy surprised. Just enjoy other things, other game types. Never play by obligation.

  • The first improvement (Media Foundation by FFMPEG) could be significant. Currently, VALVe generates large shaders to re-render those Media Foundation videos into other free codecs. These shaders can be several gigabytes in size for some games with lengthy videos. With FFMPEG, those videos could be played without being re-encoded as shaders.

    It takes a time to compile the whole project, but a way less than Firefox and Chrome. There is an AUR package for ArchLinux.

    IMHO, it is not yet daily-drive usable. Really slow for JS. The window manager is extreme limited (I can not drag tabs outside the window). It can not render steampowered neither youtube (I didn't test any more websites, just these two). The current setting page is just a window popup with a checkbox for one option. But competition is always good for the users. A web browser is a big project for today standards. Good luck to these developers 💪👍

  • Hi!

    I made my own inmutable distro using buildroot (https://buildroot.org): https://simplek8s.org

    This distro is just an AIO kernel image that will bootstrap everything in RAM. You can mount additional devices for data persistence (for example you can mount your storage in /var).

  • TLDR; the reviewer is upset because the PSVR2-PC adapter doesn't come with a Display Port cable, and his Bluetooth adapter is not compatible. So he can't review the unit on time until he receive both items. 🤷

  • It's illegal in Europe to have an opt-out checked by default, must be an opt-in unchecked by default. This is one of the reason that Microsoft has always troubles in Europe about privacy and opt-out services.

  • Hahaha. Common problem with multiscreen with different resolutions. Your laptop screen is below and left of your main display, and X11 renders this black "virtual screen".

    There are multiple solutions:

    a) Set your screen resolution and position through KDE Plasma SystemSettings and push the button "apply to SDDM configuration" (I think Plasma 6.0 removed this option, try to find it in the SystemSettings KCM SDDM section).

    b) The another solution is the old one. Create a file into /etc/X11/xorg.conf/display.conf with the proper values of position and resolution. Search in a wiki about examples (archlinux wiki?).

    c) There is a third one that I used few years ago. SDDM allows you run any command after the screen initialization. So you can exec your xrand command here. Search about /etc/sddm.conf

    KDE Plasma 6 Tip: How to remove watermark preview banner from desktop

    Hello!

    Do you hate the watermark preview banner?

    Add the text HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true just after [General] in the file ~/.config/kdeglobals. You will have something as the following:

     undefined
        
    [General]
    HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true
    
      

    Better for OLEDs displays, stylish, auto-suspend all-blacks displays, etc.

    Asking for advice: Releasing a custom rolling immutable simple distro for Kubernetes

    Hello world!

    I want to release to internet my custom immutable rolling-release extreme-simple Linux distribution for Kubernetes deployments.

    I was using this distribution for about the last 6 years on production environments (currently used by a few startups and two country's public services). I really think that it could be stable enough to be public published to internet before 2024.

    I'm asking for advice before the public release, as licensing, community building, etc.

    A few specs about the distribution:

    • Rolling release. Just one file (currently less than ~40Mb) that can be bootable from BIOS or UEFI (+secure boot) environments. You can replace this file by the next release or use the included toolkit to upgrade the distribution (reboot/kexec it). Mostly automated distribution releases by each third-party releases (Linux, Systemd, Containerd, KubeAdm, etc).
    • HTTP setup. The initial setup could be configured with a YAML file written anywhere in a FAT32 partiti
