Welcome to a new issue of "This Week in Plasma"! Every week we cover the highlights of what's happening in the world of KDE Plasma and its associated apps like Discover, System Monitor, and more.

What if you're really constipated?

The look of no regrets


I guess salt and dodgy kidneys are a no go

Excuse me, I was told there would be cats

No, it's a full Tom Selleck

That's what friends are for!

When I'm in bed, Percy comes into the bedroom (he can open the door) and on to the bed. Then he proceeds to thump me in the head until I lift the covers for him to snuggle under them with me. Is that cute? I think so.

The Pragmatic Programmer, Your Journey to Mastery and Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices are both books I found very helpful.

So I suppose you never use a browser to run a web application on the desktop :thinking_face: Anyway it;s a client server architecture designed for remote installation on servers as well as local installations. It makes sense to have one installer do both.
As to the old installer, when you knew about the un-obvious features, it was brilliant from a user perspective, but I'm willing to bet that from a developer perspective, it was hard to maintain, hard to add new features to, and fragile.

That's kind of like asking why we're not all driving Ford Model T cars, after all you could drive in them just fine. Technology moves on, best practice moves on, Hell, everything moves on.

A quick glance at the Agama repository suggests that the server is written in rust and the front end in react. I've no idea how it all works in practice as I don't use Tumbleweed any more. I really liked the yast installer but it was getting old.

Why isn't everyone working on Arch instead of wasting time with all those other distros?

Maybe, if they ever repeat it, I'll give it another go.

My favourite Garfield cartoon

He really is a fucking tory

I only watched about three episodes before I gave up on it.

Stargate Universe

Trump’s actions don’t even make sense, let alone meet any standard of fairness or intelligence.
They do if you look at him like a foreign agent, working to take down the US.

For Android, you can install DNSNet

Aww, it smells of her human.


This week was full of major feature work and UI polishing, in addition to a lot of bug-fixing! I'm pretty sure everyone will find something to be excited about here:



Welcome to the new home of "This Week in Plasma"! No longer is it a private personal thing on my (Nate Graham's) blog, but now it's a weekly series hosted here on KDE's infrastructure, open to anyone's participation and contribution! I'll remain the editor-in-chief for now, and welcome contributions...

At this point we’ve addressed most of the nasty regressions people found in Plasma 6.2. Thankfully most were not widespread, and were instead related to people’s diverse hardware setups…
