Re: Fashion Thread

Yeah, that seems crazy, especially since the poster's only two posts so far are that and a post giving pierrot grief about calling them out. The response from that account was actually one of the more amusing things I read yesterday, but the thing I'm really surprised by is that they showed up agai...

Re: Linux

Oh, nice! Good to know there's some better ways to hopefully keep that from happening again. Thanks for the info! Mainly back to just say after a number of weeks with Fedora on my desktop and laptop, I've gotten things pretty much setup to function as my Windows systems did, with some minor jank aro...

Re: Fashion Thread

It's probably pretty obvious for most, but the above is an ad, possibly by a bot, that rewrote Note's original post of: That Ghost in the Shell jacket is nice, Megas! One of my favorite movies, one of the few I would contemplate getting a t-shirt of. Also, nice setup and display with the shelves! to...

Re: Linux

Oh, I wasn't planning on making any desktop manager changes immediately, but I had already found some discussion about adding JP input with KDE yesterday. It just requires a bit of setup, and I hadn't gotten around to it yet. It's just that in GNOME I literally only had to click into keyboard input ...

Re: Linux

Well, my desktop is now also on Fedora. Yesterday I blew away the Windows 10 install and did a fresh Fedora 41 install with the Fedora Everything ISO. Went with the KDE desktop manager (regretting it a little bit), and basically nothing else but the VLC option. I've gotten it mostly set up for my da...

Re: Linux

Yes, software that's maintained by volunteers instead of by the original creators themselves tend to be slightly behind the most current releases. Despite its reputation, Fedora isn't really bleeding edge. Packages are more up-to-date than Ubuntu, but less so than Arch. This is to ensure that no ne...

Re: Jago's FS: Gears of War Lot, Halo Lot - CIB 360 Lots

Not to crud up Jag's BST thread with general discussion, but I find selling stuff through Ebay to truly suck these days. A lot of the time I feel like I'm letting things go to resellers through there (even if this isn't necessarily actually the case) when I would really rather have stuff going to pe...

Re: Linux

The spins just come with pre-installed software. Doing an update should make sure that all of them are current. Labs and spins just come with different pre-installed software, but it's all still just Fedora. (Spins are for different pre-installed DEs, labs are for different pre-installed software b...

Re: Linux

Ah, cool. Good to know. So I may have gone a little bit crazy. I think I actually rolled back most of what I had done to try to install Nvidia drivers, and then I just ended up reinstalling from scratch with Fedora Everything. I feel pretty good about that, though, because I feel like I can just get...

Re: Linux

On my laptop I have AMD integrated graphics with dedicated Nvidia graphics. Fedora seemed to have Nouveau installed by default, and it looked like I could launch programs on the dedicated graphics on a per app basis, but I was running into some issues with libraries in Lutris that prompted me to loo...
