Is it easy to get NVIDA drivers, Vulkan, Cuda etc in Debian? I somehow thought that was kind finicky, not sure why …

Can confirm that the Razer BIOS is absolutely bar bones. Never really minded that and as I said aside of the non-working speakers (apparently a known problem with Razer) it was all good.

I’ve used a Razer Blade 16 last year and could never get the speakers to work no matter what I tried. Tested quite a few distros (Mint, Manjaro, Debian) and ultimately settled on Fedora. Didn’t mind the speakers not working much since I used Bluetooth speakers/headphones mostly anyway. Other then that Fedora worked prefectly.

Oh, that sounds nice! I think it would be very smart of Europe to build their own (open-source) infrastructure just in case someone not reliable were to become US president … Can’t hurt to start preparing (better far to late than never …)

I’m really having high hopes of Schleswig Holstein doing of right (I’m also being prepared of these hopes being crushed 😸). A Swiss Linux podcast (Captain, It’s Wednesday) did an interview with one of the politicians responsible for the project and it sounded like the looked at why these projects have failed in the past and are trying to learn from the mistakes:

So I would love if this would be the case (German gov using open soruce software) but tbh this reads like marketing bs to me, sorry. “Aims to transform public administration”, “providing Germany’s public sector with a secure and open-source alternative”. Yes, good. Nice. Cool. But are any government agencies are actually using it? I feel like if they wpild be they’d surely name them …

Not much new for me, already on Plasma 6.2 with Kinoite, but there seems to be an alternative to rpm-ostree coming up (not sure if/why it’s needed/better but if I don’t have to remember when it is “rpm-ostree” and when it’s “ostree” in cli I’m all for it 😸):

You’ve checked out this:

? I think I’ve used --write-subs and --sub-langs all and it worked as expected in the past.

Yeah, making that G capital really makes it look like a C, amazing job 🤦‍♀️

Ah, ok. Very nice!

Intro-skipping is build-in now? Did I get this right? I thought they decided against it?

Would https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/ work for you? It’s Osm plus markers etc(?) you can put on top of it. Not sure if you can make it work offline/selfhosted. I used it for marking interesting locations in a city some friends wanted to visit that I know quite well.

And it doesn’t seem to have any consequences anyway, since in capitalism you can get away with anything if you’re rich and they know that.

Also Blender = Nvidia (judging by Blenderbenchmarks, never had an Amd card so can’t compare in praxis …)

I can’t believe that there’s actually finally some good news in all this horror that has been the last years. Can this be true?

I’m running two servers in two different locations on two i5 NUCs with USB-attached HDDs (blasphemy, I know) for storage and lots of Docker services. Its not super fast (e.g. Jellyfin) but good enough for me.

Check the manual (online if you don’t have one). Usually you longpress a (touch)button on the earbuds to get them into pairing-mode, then add them as a new Bluetooth device on your OS.

This is part of how to keep us docile, though isn’t it? Give us stories about all that’s evil in the world again and again and at some point we’ll all go: “Well, yeah. Meh.”

You’ll have to check on torrent or dl sites that might have the type of content you want (or be more specific here). E.g. I think Audiobookbay has a forum where you can request stuff.

There’s also tonnes of custom CSS stuff people are doimg for the web view, I think. E.g.:
