Some people will grumble. Majority will just continue tapping their cards without looking at what it costs, because they can afford it. Some will fall prey to the gamification and think they're "saving" when the prices are &q

To finish my review: there are a lot of rough edges and questionable defaults, but ultimately, KDE is impressive. It's extremely snappy, full of useful features. I can live with it I think fast + full of features gets KDE a LOT of mile

I recommend only sitting on a leather seat, or laying a waterproof jacket over a cloth seat. Too many times I've come out of Wetherspoons itching - and not from knackering my liver! Worth it though for ~£1.30 unlimited tea and coffee.

Yes, not perfect, but MUCH better than their current version of touch-screen only climate control, which is an exercise in frustration. "Relative perfection" :) The numbers are centigrade, which for the local market is mostly very

So I just tried KDE with Fedora 43 on a 4 year old Intel Dell laptop (I've used Linux pretty extensively for 15+ years). It's hilariously bad : - I managed to make a process crash just clicking around the Settings app - Sleep does

BTRFS is certainly adventurous. That's one way to make sure you have a good backup policy in place. Corey (a character of mine) says stick with ext4.
