I've once read the short bio of a conference speaker. And she was like "XY is an accomplished senior engineer and manager […] Also she likes to write about herself in third person."
THAT'S the kind of bad ass vibes I live for

Fedi, it’s your lucky day! You get to recommend me a Linux distribution to install on a partition of my new AMD Framework 13 laptop.
I’m much more comfortable with dpkg-based distributions than rpm-based ones. I have no favourite desktop window manager.
I will be using it casually, dual booting with Windows 11. Bonus points if it handles suspend well.

I'm listening to Brian May's guitar solo in Queen's "Somebody to Love" and realizing how much I've subconsciously copied his style, or at least tried to
he so often plays these classical, major-diatonic solos
it sounds like he wrote it on a trumpet and transcribed it to a guitar
very few bluesy bent notes
Man I do this *all* the time too

Question to all the #KDE users out there. On Gnome I use this extension to improve battery life: extensions.gnome.org/extension…
It allows to set charging limits, e.g. to keep the battery charging level between 60% and 80%. If the charging level is reached and the Laptop is plugged-in, it runs completely with the power from the plug and saves the battery.
Does something like this exists for KDE?

The bill gives new teeth to the Environmental Protection Authority, which will have a mandate to regulate and oversee all matters related to the environment and climate change. It also brings several key laws under one umbrella, including legislation regulating pesticide use and growing electronic waste. Asaase Radio buff.ly/40W9li2

Once again @pluralistic has managed to distill into once sentence something I've had trouble finding the words to explain. I'll be stealing this one!
> "The classic leftist distinction goes: leftists want to abolish a system where 150 white men run the world; liberals want to replace half of those 150 with women, queers and people of color." pluralistic.net/2023/09/05/not…

The first thing to understand about USA politics is: everything is shifted one slot to the right.
Forex, Democrats aren't wishy-washy 'Liberals' really. They are more like a European Center Right party. What Europeans call 'Liberals', we call 'Socialists' and what Europeans call 'Socialists', we call 'Communists'.
The founding fathers of the USA tried to create a system hostile to political parties. In the end they created a system favorable to only two parties.
When I lived in Europe (where there are actual left-wing parties), I found it comical that Americans thought the Democrats were “left-wing”.
Now I live in the US, it doesn't seem comical at all.
But Trump & friends now claim the Democrats are "far-left radicals”: absurd, but many Americans seem to accept the new lie as uncritically as they accepted the previous one.
Meanwhile, the American right has gone far-right, but still pretend to be moderates.

It seems that a few people are being misinformed about the deprecation of the X11 backend, usually because they read screeds from well-known bad faith actors.
The X11 backend being deprecated mainly means that we're not going to spend time implementing new features, like dmabuf, graphics offloading, or Vulkan support. X11 support will still exist until GTK4 is EOL, which will happen once GTK *6* is released. We're talking about a 20 years horizon, at this point…

A think people miss about Ghandi is that he and his activists didn’t merely march in the streets.
They took mass direct action. They non-violently shut down facilities and dismantled procedures directly relevant to the operation of the British empire.
It is civil *resistance*.
For it to work, the thing you are peacefully doing needs to directly undermine their power and authority.
The idea that all they did was march and write strongly worded letters is liberal propaganda. They shut down railways. They openly flaunted the British salt monopoly. They sewed their own clothing both as a symbolic protest against western cultural norms AND because it undermined the British textile industry.
Obviously, doing that would be very illegal. As were the things Ghandi’s people did. It is not safe to do.
The reason people march holding signs that accomplish little instead of doing that is because it is ostensibly safer.
And the reason it is safer is because it isn’t nearly as threatening to the ruling elites.

Theologin: Katholische Kirche trägt Mitschuld an religiösem Trump-Kult
"Schande für das Christentum!": Die Theologin Hille Haker prangert eine enge Verbindung zwischen der US-Kirche und Donald Trump an. Sie sieht sie als Mitschuldige an einem Missbrauch von Religion für politische Zwecke.Katholische Kirche in Deutschland - katholisch.de
Interessantes Detail: »Hille Haker lehrt seit 2012 theologische Ethik an der Loyola University Chicago.«
Bie Loyola Uni ist eine private Anstalt der Jesuiten. Auch wenn ich mit der Kirche sowie der mit ihr verbundenen Organisationen wenig am Hut habe ergab es der Zufall, dass ich Anfang Oktober 2024 die alte Mission San José de Tumacácori (ca 1h Autostunde südlich von Tucson AZ) besichtigt habe. Im Visitor Center des Tumacaori National Historic Park war auch folgende Info-Tafel:

Wie viel fehlt hängt davon ab, wie viele Stimmen an Parteien gehen, die nicht in den Bundestag kommen. Du brauchst die Mehrheit der Sitze, nicht der abgegebenen Stimmen.
Und allein bei der letzten Wahl hat Laschet es während weniger Wochen geschafft, sehr viele Stimmen (und damit Prozente) zu verlieren, sonst hätte es die Ampel nie gegeben.
⅔ der Interaktionen sind positiv: Menschen die Flyer wollen, ehrliche Fragen stellen oder sagen „Ich Wähl euch eh“.
⅓ sind Leute die Probleme mit #Waffenlieferungen habe.
Interessant: Es kam ein #Schwurbel vorbei, der erklärte es wird Zuviel über #Migration gesprochen!

Admittedly they're not running particularly new hardware (mostly Haswell era) but as long as your machine is older than the newest Ubuntu LTS it should be just fine

Als Antwort auf Deborah Pickett • • •I'm looking into Bazzite for my dual-boot setup. It's a Fedora remix, and leans into the "atomic linux" setup.
Downside is that it's gaming-centric, so there's a lot of focus on that specific kind of plug-and-play.
Otherwise ... I've heard good things about Elementary OS, and Mint.

Als Antwort auf Deborah Pickett • • •Fedora is my go-to. As far as dpkg-based distros go, though, Ubuntu is my second place recommendation. Generally Just Works, good update cycle, stable without being outdated, supports basically any piece of software you throw at it.
I wouldn't go for an Ubuntu derivative like Mint, Pop, or elementary, just because (despite those all being very good distros in every other way) having an extra level of indirection in the packaging process means that they can get very, very out of date.
