I’ve been told by my peers throughout my life that I was a bad person. I can’t say I disagree. I sometimes do nice or selfless acts but in the end I do things that hurt people around me and I prioritize my needs above others. Sometimes i don’t even think about other peoples needs.
I constantly need to remind myself that other people are real people just like me and must have their own emotions and their own motivations. That doesn’t come naturally to me. Was raised by a successful narcissist so I ended up seeing and viewing the world like he did.
Came to terms that I’ll never actually be a good person but I can be a little less evil than he was. I’ll never kill people or rob disabled people like he did though. Even if it is easy.
This is the first and only distro I’ve tried that has display link drivers already installed. Was able to plug my laptop into my work dock and immediately have it all work. I used to have to install a community version of the displaying driver for my Ubuntu and Debian based distros. Shit just works the first time.
Ah gotcha okay. Probably explains why sudo dnf update/upgrade wasn’t quite doing what I expected in my Bazzite install. Force of habit since I’ve used Fedora and Debian based systems in the past.
I’ve factory reset every Google home of mine multiple times over the years. Never had any effect.
Google Home. Bought them for $40 CAD and back then they were great. Responsive, did quick google searches, played my music all over the house.
Over the years they’ve lost functionality. Mine no longer accurately respond to voice queries and no longer complete google searches. I can still play music on them manually from my phone but when I ask it something, it responds back in French or does something completely different than what I had originally asked.
Worst part is that I ask it something, it does something different, and then when I say “hey Google stop” it just keeps going and going. Have to manually pull the plug for it to stop.
It actually is officially supported by the hardware team who builds my laptop. I’m not sure why you had to be so hostile with your wording.
from the context I gather they mean the area where a user does actions (file system, home folder, stuff a regular user comes into contact with)
Right? I’ve had these issues with a Framework 13 AMD and have experienced these problems on Kubuntu 23.10, Ubuntu 22.04, and Kubuntu 24.04.
Otherwise the computer runs stably albeit certain flatpaks and snaps just stop working for some reason over time (like BambuStudio and Webcord and a Notion web wrapper and Kdenlive).
I basically treat this laptop as I would a bigger steamdeck. I video edit, play games, and browse the internet. That’s basically 99% of my use case
For me it’s easier a lot of the time to just reformat and reinstall the OS than to troubleshoot every little problem as they arise. It’s great for learning and I’ve certainly learned a lot along the way but for my use case I just want this computer to work with my stuff right off the bat.
Now that you mention it I do get another bug where if I pick up my computer in a certain way it logs me out. I’ve got a Framework 13.
This is promising. I’ve got the exact same laptop as you. Laughing at the need to make things complicated to keep your skills up.
Switch from Ubuntu to something immutable?
Sup penguin people.
I’ve been running various flavours and variations of Ubuntu for a while. I find I have to nuke and reset my laptop every 6ish months because things eventually stop working or I get weird bugs.
Recently I’ve been having this on and off problem where the computer just shows a black screen after turning it on. The only way to fix this is to tap keys repeatedly until a console shows up and it seems to kick the computer into gear and log in. Other times I have to restart 2-3 times before it logs me in.
I’ve had a lot of small issues like that (like having to jiggle the volume knob in the sound mixer to get sound working) and I’m wondering if switching to an immutable distro (like bazzite) would solve this apparent config creep.
I have a Steamdeck and it’s been solid and stable ever since I got it. I know it’s running an immutable distro and after researching a little bit it sounds like they can be more stable.
I’m no power user but I play some steam games and run a local 7b LLM and like to have a virtual machine or two for Windows XP emulation for some retro gaming.
Anyone have any opinions? What are your thoughts on immutable distros (like Bazzite)? Pros? Cons? Success/doom stories?
X plane is leagues more stable than MSFS, I can guarantee that
I bought FS2020 a couple days ago and was unable to download the game. It was 160gb and the connection to Microsoft servers kept cutting. Most of the times I tried opening the program it would just crash on the loading screen. I was almost 2 hours in trying to just get it to download the game when I made the executive choice to just refund it before my refund window was past.
Bought xplane 12 instead. Less pretty by all metrics but it takes barely any time to open and is highly modable. At least now I can fly planes.

Switching from GNOME to Plasma 6 on Ubuntu - what makes the most sense?
Hi all!
I have a laptop running Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and I want to switch to KDE Plasma 6.
How should I change over and why?
Option 1: Install KDE Plasma 6 alongside GNOME
Option 2: Backup and fresh install KDE Neon.
Can’t log into my Nextcloud
Hi all!
I’ve had Nextcloud installed on Docker and it has been working for a while until now.
I had to change my server from wifi to Ethernet and gave it a new static IP. I also uninstalled docker and reinstalled it so I’d be starting fresh.
I have Nextcloud working and when I go to localhost:8070, Nextcloud works properly. When I use another device connected to the same network by wifi, it doesn’t work.
I made sure the config.php file has the server’s static IP address listed in the trusted domains category.
This used to work before but now after hours of troubleshooting, I’m all out of ideas and frustrated 😩 Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: My wife to stroll by and casually was all “did you check Windows Firewall?” and lo and behold, Windows Firewall chose today to block private connections on Docker Desktop backend -_-
Once I enabled it everything worked perfectly. Leaving this up here in case someone else stumbles upon this exact issue.
KDE in high res screen with Wayland?
I’m running KDE Wayland session on a Surface Pro 6 and the UI is much too small.
I changed the UI scale in System Settings which works for all my apps except for the system text (panels, menus, Dolphin). The text in my system UI is super blurry.
I’ve done a bit of research and it looks like Wayland may not support fractional scaling properly, but I’m finding conflicting info on this.
At this time, is it possible to run a Wayland session in KDE with 150-200% UI scaling?
I’m about to throw my entire Pihole out the window
Every month or so all my devices lose internet and the only way to connect them all back is to disconnect them from the DNS server that Pihole is running.
I set my Pihole to have a static IP but for some reason after around a month or maybe longer, it just fails. This has happened 4 times over the last while and the only fix is to essentially uninstall everything on my Pihole, disable it, and then reconfigure it from scratch again.
I’m not sure what’s going on so any help would be appreciated.
Hello friends
