I love KDE. It's got easy to use power user features and is very robust.

He also said he'd leave the country if he lost to Biden. Of all the lies he's told, I wish that one were true.

Install it, don't stress and have fun 😊

I switched someone recently (she installed mint instead of kubuntu that recommended) and soon after exclaimed that it's just like windows. I think she assumed everything would be in a terminal lol, now she gaming in steam. Anyway you'll probably find it more similar than different. The one big difference is that we don't download and run software from the Internet, we have something like an app store where everything is vetted and trustworthy.

Ironic that the desktop client is hosted on GitHub lol

Possibly, but that's a much smaller project being run by 1 guy. Linux has a lot more people and reviews involved.

Unfortunately the only evidence that we have of the Tim Pool show ending is that Tim Pool said it. Does anyone have a more trustworthy source?

Well it's clear whose side God is on.

My first thought is that this was to make Linux palatable to western regulations, like how companies can't use Kaspersky anymore. Stupid if I'm right because it's not like the fsb is going to sneak spyware into Linux.

Edit: Linus commented on this and I was right: https://lemmy.world/comment/13034386

If it were me, I'd do a fresh minimal install of the same OS, boot to the livecd and then delete pretty much everything except for /etc and /boot. I'd then cp -ar all my files from the failing drive and then manually merge /etc back. I say manually merge because most things would get replaced by my old files, but I'd manually modfify my fstab to keep the new partition information and add my extra mounts after it. Maybe that's just me though. You can also just dd and then resize partitions if necessary.

Google is not killing uBlock Origin. It's changing how Chrome works. uBlock Origin will continue to work in my Firefox and other browsers.

When I go to Lemmy, I'm not logged in until I click on a post to read, what's up with that? I used to stay logged in.

 

KDE 5 had a feature in the keyboard shortcuts in settings where you could set a Window Action as a trigger instead of a keyboard shortcut (Documentation in the link). This means that KDE would do something every time a certain window appeared. This was very useful, my use case was changing the TeamViewer authorization prompt to NT logon as I don't use the normal TeamViewer password. I think there should be a workaround if it's truly gone, but for the life of me I can't remember or search for the name of this software that does something every time a certain window is created.
