To add to another comment, Okular PDF reader has a back button, which is super convenient to come back to the main text after clicking on a reference.

I use a rolling distro (OpenSUSE Tumbleweed) and have had zero issues with my NVIDIA card despite it pulling the kernel and driver updates as they get released. The driver repo is maintained by NVIDIA itself, which is amazing.

This method is unsupervised and does not train on annotated data. They use a similar approach to GPT: autoregressive sequence modelling.

KDE Plasma not only looks great but is arguably the most powerful desktop environment on the market right now, in terms of features and configurability. Windows and Apple are not even close. Its downside is that there are some bugs, which i

Couldn't be happier switching to Tumbleweed, it is fast, robust and up-to-date. One of its creators, Richard Brown, explains well why rolling distros are so great https://rootco.de/2020-02-10-regular-releases-are-wrong&

I'd be very curious to know what are those packages. But this is not surprising, OpenSUSE is less popular than Debian, Fedora and Arch.

It's a bit tricky for OpenSUSE to replace CentOS at the moment, as their stable distribution Leap is due to be obsoleted and replace with immutable-bases distribution, which is still not quite ready. No one quite knows what happens aft

I run Tumbleweed on my desktop PC and the laptop, both of which have NVIDIA GPUs. I have to say this is the first time that my systems are bug-free. Previously on Kubuntu I constantly experienced graphical glitches. I pray they don't c

I'm also interested in running it on Linux, would be great if the game officially supported running in Wine.

If you are not on a rolling distro, it's a major pain to install latest versions of even open source apps.

I don't think it's just one font. I recently switched away from Ubuntu to OpenSUSE TumbleWeed and on occasional webpages and applications I get these badly rendered fonts. I fixed them to some extent by installing additional fonts

I recently put Tumbleweed on my laptop and am pleasantly surprised. You get new packages very fast thanks to automated testing, built-in btrfs snapshots allow you to undo a problematic update. Will be moving my main Ubuntu desktop to it soo

Tbh, I never understood the whole hype about IDW. Sam Harris is the only one worth respecting there, whereas Dave Rubin and Ben Shapiro are both absolutely disgusting.

It took me a good part of 2020 to write up my PhD thesis. I began writing right when I was hit by a life-threatening depression. I could not make any progress for months while being pressured by my next employer to submit the thesis quickly

That. I disabled Baloo because it's cache was growing uncontrollably. And Firefox with many opened tabs uses most RAM anyway, in that sense I don't see how much it's the problem of KDE.

I usually shit on GNOME because KDE is technologically better. Qt is undoubtedly superior UI framework which is used far more outside KDE community unlike GTK. I feel that little issues KDE has here and there are mostly the result of it bei

I've been meaning to switch to Fedora because of more up to date packages after 10+ years on Ubuntu. It does work for me though, and by now I reached a point of where everything works, so I'm afraid to change things too much.

I'm not a design expert, but KDE looks absolutely fine to me. Maybe because I'm a programmer and it was designed by people like me for me.

It wasn't chasing the design. The major change was upgrade to Qt4 and they rewrote almost the entire thing from scratch. Long term I think it was for the best.

Well, in Ubuntu and Fedora all DEs are equal but GNOME is more equal than the rest. I just wish they switched to KDE because it is so much better.
