Aleksandr Borodetckii lowered the default scroll speed to follow the globally-configured scroll distance more closely. Scrolling one "tick" with the mouse wheel should now move the view by a similar distance in Dolphin as it does in KWrite.
These little inconsistencies really bother me for some reason. I suppose I should thank the KDE/Plasma devs it’s not as bad as Gnome! 😅
I think I can blame that on the Framework touchpad and some oddities that Gnome has no control over though. Would be nice to have a slider!
Disappointing but predictable. Looks like the new possible target is Fedora 46, though, unless Valve is on board, it may not go anywhere…

arstechnica.com Found in the wild: 2 Secure Boot exploits. Microsoft is patching only 1 of them.
The publicly available exploits provide a near-universal way to bypass key protections.
I thought you could just install the missing bits to enable Gnome support of X, but that doesn't seem to be the case:
If you require Xorg specifically, you can install and use a non-GNOME desktop environment. Xorg itself is not going away, only GNOME’s support for Xorg.

Ubuntu 25.10 will replace the sudo command with sudo-rs, a new Rust rewrite designed to improve memory safety and security. What does this mean for users?
Not really. Seemed like bookmarks to me. I did like the articles on the new tab page, though, and that seems like it’s going to survive.

Updates on what happens across the GNOME project from week to week
Always been a pretty big fan of Pinta for just that reason. Good to see they're still cranking out the updates and fixes.
Just a good reminder why we’re here
Fedora and OBS came to an agreement. More here.
A concurring statement from Greg KH
I do think it's "well" designed. "Best" is going to be up to you. Lots of folks look for different things.
I still go back to it from time to time. OpenRA adds some nice flavor, and then you have cool mods like Combat Arms that brings in some of the newer races/groups.
Good call, good call!
Maybe 3 months for it to compile and start up? Good thing it's fall in the northern hemisphere... that's gonna be toasty!
Don't let your dreams be dreams, friend.

You would be correct :)
It’s their best feature!
Just turning off secure boot and giving Linux its own drive. Much better this way!
Windows killed Windows? Oh the irony!
It’s not enforced, but I kept it on and was using Fedora until I turned it off recently since they support it. If I turn it back on, good chance Secure Boot will complain when booting into Linux.
I think this is the issue here
