Some racing recommendations:

Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition

Enthusia

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 (the PS2 version is the best one)

Burnout 3 Takedown AND Revenge, both are stellar

Tokyo Extreme Racer 3 and Drift 2

I yearn for Fedora

When CPUs were a lot slower you could genuinely get noticeable performance improvements by compiling packages yourself, but nowadays the overhead from running pre-compiled binaries is negligible.

Hell, even Gentoo optionally offers binary packages now.

That’s easy, just pick btrfs, gnome, pipewire, systemd, gdm, grub, and add flatpak in your additional packages.

Every other configuration is wrong.

/s

Now imagine the same meme but with Gentoo and LFS

Readable on Voyager as well.

EDIT: Not to say it looks good, but it’s readable.

Nice, waiting paid off. I’m actually interested in picking up the new God of War and Horizon games now.

Fedora/dnf makes installing additional desktops super easy, also with no risk to data. To hijack your comment a bit:

To install Plasma: sudo dnf install @kde-desktop

Logout and log into the Plasma session to use it.

To rollback, get the transaction ID of the above: dnf history list

And then rollback: sudo dnf history rollback <ID>

If Gnome’s fonts/icons don’t revert, install and open gnome-tweaks and reset settings.

Yeah if you’re looking for a traditional/Windows-like metaphor, you’re WAY better off with Plasma than trying to wrestle Gnome into that shape.

Definitely worth a try, especially if it’s been a few years since you’ve last played with it.

I’m amazed by the level of polish overall, I’ve encountered very little jankiness that used to be super common with Plasma when I last tried it. Plasma feels like a really mature desktop now, which is awesome. I’m running Plasma 6.2 at the moment, and I think 6.3 is right around the corner as well.

My problems so far are more subjective. Gnome may be a very opinionated desktop, but I happen to agree with most of its opinions. Gnome’s workspaces feature is miles better than Plasma’s virtual desktops, which feel tacked on in comparison. I’m still trying to tinker with this to make it work for me, but honestly this seems like the thing that will push me back to Gnome if I don’t find a workflow I like.

KDE obviously has more features overall though, HDR support happens to be the one that I’m interested in at the moment since I’ve been toying with the idea of buying a new monitor.

Ironically most of my customization so far has been to make it more like Gnome lmao

Still trying to figure out how to make workspaces/virtual desktops more…usable.

Overall though it’s amazing how solid Plasma is now, it sure as hell isn’t the buggy mess it used to be in the earlier Plasma 5 days.

I started using FreshRSS around the same time Reddit killed their API, it has rapidly become one of my favorite self-hosted apps.

Also,

open source software releases I follow

You have just taught me that I can add github release pages to my feed, I love FreshRSS even more now.

Ubuntu in Nobody (slightly nsfw), great movie too.

It checks all the boxes. Pinging some random IP, checking their python version, installing pip updates, the output of ls -l /etc, all in a virtualbox VM. Clearly a professional hacker. /s

I’ve been itching to upgrade to AM5, this might finally be the CPU to finally make it worth it. Hopefully power draw and thermals are good, I’d like to do an ITX build if possible.

i’m on a diet, i’ll just take the crackers

sudo eat | grep -v "Chocolate Cream"

it’ll usually be the artist’s name. Like if you search for “Taylor Swift”, you’ll get exactly zero results because that phrase is blacklisted due to a complaint from the label. If you instead search for a specific song, you will see results, and can work backwards from there to find the album you’re looking for.

The last time I had trouble finding something on Soulseek, it was an album that had released a month or two ago, so it might’ve still been too new.

Yeah, I’ve had to use that blacklist workaround on many occasions, lol

Oh wow, I never realized that was an option. Fixed, thanks!
