Can anyone recommend a lightweight, stable distro for a thinkpad?

    First you need to explain what you want by lightweight. RAM, Disk, GPU, Pre installed packages? Features?

    Readme needs updating. Still references GNOME stuff.

    Yeah, looks to be an instance specific bug I guess. Hopefully it can get addressed soon. I think the thumbnail helps with drawing people's attention to posts.

    Ah I see it's just Lemmy failing to get the thumbnail that I was trying to fix. I guess it's just something in Lemmy's code.

    The new crash reporting doesn't require an account. It's all sent to KDE's Sentry instance.

    It's prompted to the user when there's a crash that is caught by Dr Konqi.

    Apparently in Lemmy you can't post a URL and an image 🤷.

  • Arch celebrating plasma 6 dropping a week after NixOS
  • justin justin Now 100%

    I gotta say and it feels weird to but I'm happy Arch are spending a bit longer testing these days. When I used to run it updates just felt rushed into the repo so Arch got it first.

  • KDE connect on MacOS - Where are the binaries now that binary-factory.kde.org is down?
  • justin justin Now 100%

    I think most KDE developers use Linux. The Windows, Mac and Android builds are generally extras to show off KDE software to more users.

    I would jump into the KDE Connect Matrix room: https://go.kde.org/matrix/#/#kdeconnect:kde.org and the KDE Mac room: https://go.kde.org/matrix/#/#KDE-Mac:kde.org to discuss. Builds are now done on GitLab directly, but it may be the case that nobody has set up the CI builds.

    Don't look into code, you'll find killing children.

  • Is there a downside to Flatpak?
  • justin justin Now 80%

    Probably JSON. I haven’t been involved in Flatpak for a long time but I’ve never seen XML. JSON is quite close to XML in it’s layout sometimes I find so easily mistaken.

  • Average NVIDIA driver experience
  • justin justin Now 100%

    The driver installation has got a lot easier over time, still shit that you have to install a driver, still shit support for older cards. The open drivers they're building are too little too late for me. They didn't care about my slightly older GPU so I stopped buying their hardware. All AMD/Intel from here on in.

  • Has anyone purchased a Steam Deck in Australia and had to use the warranty? If so how was it? Who did you buy through, was the warranty easily navigated etc?
