This will be interesting as well. Your Linux desktop will be able to remember window positions and sizes across restarts. So if you are meticulous about an organized layout where the terminal is on the left and the browser is on the right, it will be the same even after your system restarts. Note that session survives temporary app closures, too.

It's about freaking time.

EDIT: I just realized that KWin has already had this for a year. Then again, maybe this means it'll actually get used now?

I never understood why people love Lutris so much. I've always found it extremely overrated, even before they started vibecoding it.

IMO, Lutris was already an overrated pile of junk before genAI became popular. It tracks that they're vibecoding it now.

Since you haven't mentioned it, are there any specific games you're running into issues with? If so, are these Steam/Proton games, Wine games, native titles, or emulated games?

Even if their software stack isn't totally FOSS, I'm still happy to see a potential challenger to Google and Apple in the smartphone space. Duopolies suck.

What's the going price for a MiSTer these days?

EDIT: Just checked the official website. An Official MiSTer Kit costs 159.90 EUR, or 254.63 CAD. Ouch.

Don't comply in advance, that's what I say. Unfortunately, that's what systemd is doing, and what archinstall, xdg-desktop-portal, and Freedesktop.org are on the verge of doing.

For the vast majority of people who don't live in California, including myself, California law can go fly a kite.

A toggle to switch between hiding and showing blocked communities would definitely be a nice option to have. It'd be better than just hiding blocked communities outright.

You raise a very good point. systemd isn't the only thing we should be bringing attention to. Everything in the Linux ecosystem that's pushing for age verification/attestation should have attention brought to it.

 

I'm curious if this is an oversight, an intentional design decision, or a bug. If it's just an oversight, it'd be nice if blocked communities no longer appeared on the communities page; hence why I'm flairing this as both a question and a feature request.

EDIT: Just updated my tags and flairs.

The problem with btrfs subvolumes is that you have to use btrfs. I'm good with Ext4. It's nice and reliable.

This is one of the beautiful things about open source. If the original devs do something stupid, the community can fork.
