Just fyi, that is not Fedora workstation, thats a Fedora atomic spin, which is an immutable os. Installing packages and updating works a bit different than a normal distro.

Ahh I see, that makes more sense :)

The toilet paper drags against the wall either way though?

The bootloader thing doesn’t happen anymore with UEFI I believe. Each os has its own boot partition now.

All windows can do is make itself the first boot option, which you’d have to reverse in your bios.

There’s a Mac download option right there on the home page.

+1 for ventoy. With that you can just flash ventoy on it once, then copy iso’s over to the usb drive without reformatting or reflashing anything.

Yeah just wish it would show the verified status in the cli, that’s the only reason I still go to the website

That is also a form of basic auth, you still pass the credentials like “username:password”, optionally base64 encoded but I don’t believe that’s required.

Edit: actually, after looking into it a bit more, it seems like passing credentials in the url will actually cause the browser to send it as an authorization header instead. So in essence it’s doing the same thing.

I think they’re talking about basic Auth, with which you can pass credentials in a URL like this:

https://username:password@website.com

You already don’t have to do that. That’s what IDE’s have autocomplete for.

Have you tested if hardware acceleration even works at all? On my Fedora install, whenever I try the latest 545 driver, it just doesn’t work. glxinfo just returns an error, insufficient resources.

535 still works great for me though.

Ah i had no idea, that sucks

You could just buy a prepaid throwaway SIM. Pretty sure those are super cheap.

Does this apply to Proton as well, or have they had their own fixes for Vulkan or something? Cause I’ve been playing games on Wayland with Proton just fine for a good while now.

Also, when you choose either of the update or restart/shutdown options, it actually tries to restart, (for me) always boots back into linux because that’s my default. When I’d eventually boot back into Windows, it just continues installing the update I’d long forgotten about.

Pretty happy to be rid of that mess entirely now.

Are you using Wayland with KDE? For me the taskbar freezes if I’m on Wayland and hover over some windows so it shows the preview.

If you’re also using Wayland, try turning off window previews (right-click taskbar->configure->Show small window previews).

Also, as a workaround if this doesn’t fix it for you, you can execute plasmashell --replace and it’ll replace the existing frozen instances instead of starting new ones. If you use krunner (alt+space) it’ll stay in your recent commands as well, so you can easily run it again when it freezes again.

Fyi the size of the repo doesn’t really matter. The source code gets compiled down and optimised to machine readable code, which is usually much smaller. So that 12mb could still be correct, for the compiled app.

It does work wirelessly, but I’m not sure if it’s also stable long-term since I mostly use it wired.

I’m pretty sure KDE’s window manager, kwin, can do all of those things through kwin scripts and window rules, except the pager doesn’t show the details of windows on other desktops, just the outline.
