  • I think that speaking out loud about malicious activities towards women is important and yes, harassment is real, but it really feels like society became almost too sensitive when it comes to approaching women. Some years ago there were video campaigns where they would literally show how one men stops another from talking to stranger female, before he was given a change to be either creepy or nice and respectful with like assumption that this is bad anyway. And also who's to judge where's the boundary between being creep or not anyway, this can be very subjective.

    And it's not my POV, I just speak about what I see in internet/media. Being gay introvert I couldn't care less about talking to strangers...

  • So much fucking this. So many people these days are straight up just useless at their jobs, but companies and managers tend to fall into some sort of toxic positivity bullshit and it's just so hard to give negative feedback to someone notoriously bad at their job somehow. An advice would be to just keep it honest and expect some sort of improvement, otherwise they may try their luck somewhere else.

  • It literally hasn’t changed even a tiny bit since I first saw it in 2006 :)

    I currently use Strawberry - a well maintained fork of the old Amarok player before they redone the UI for KDE 4. It does what I care the most:

    • Tree view collection with artist -> album grouping
    • Files view
    • Lyrics
    • Tag editor
    • Queue
    • Last, but definitely not least - gapless playback
  • I have no idea how people keep recommending that distro to beginners and regular end users only based on what the experience is like right after installing it.

    It was such a pain daily driving it for couple of months even for experienced user. updates breaking stuff every now and then, packages reverting versions oddly, causing conflicts in plasma packages, when using SteamDeck mode it would auto-install updates on boot without asking and bootlooping for no reason until I disconnect it from the network, plymouth theme changing randomly. Usually to troubleshoot I had to go to their Discord to see what broke this time. I mean, fine, but this is an unstable tinkerer purely community-driven distro, not meant for those who just want easy time dealing with their PCs. Besides, none of that shit happens on just regular plain Arch btw, once setup properly it updates just fine.

    EDIT: maybe it's any better in Nobara 41?

  • Yes, because back when I was learning almost 20 years ago I was able to google terms and read stuff for myself and it was also requirement for posting on forums, yet I was still getting a lot of help from the community. Times has changed it seems, so did the culture. Should I always assume ignorance and lack of interest? And now before I saw your comment I responded more comprehensively anyway, because why not, I'm not mad or anything. Should I take more time to write the response the first time around? Uh maybe idk

    Gamers Nexus might start including Linux gaming tests in their hardware reviews

    Pretty exciting times ahead as Valve might finally release SteamOS to more hardware. This amount of Linux desktop coverage would be unimaginable few years ago.

    Gamescope Steam exclusive session no longer able to connect to networks

    Hi, I'm using Arch with gamescope-session-steam and I switch between this and Plasma, usually booting right to Gamescope session. It was all fine and games, but with recent Steam update it is no longer able to connect to any network with its built-in NetworkManager integration.

    It shows all the wifi networks as well as my wired connection, but WiFi simply doesn't connect (asks for password and fails immediately) not leaving any log anywhere as if nothing happened.

    At first I thought that this might be problem with kwallet not being open, but there's pam log that it opens kwallet fine + it worked before not requiring any extra configuration. The problem also reproduces in gamescope nested mode from within Plasma, though it fills the remembered password from kwallet, fails exactly the same way immediately (not waiting for anything) without producing any log in either NetworkManager service or output from gamescope/steam.
