Croatia has also effectively dropped Coke (at least for the moment) but for an entirely different reason

Thank you for conforming, just ordered the earpods

Thank you for the detailed testing, that helped!

From what I've seen the issues didn't appear for everyone so not sure what the deal was but for the past few days everything's working and fixed

Man you just nudged me to it, will definitely try it out with my Legion together with PopOS as I'm fed up lately with Windows 11 lately, saving this post for later. I do very much like and prefer KDE, didn't Mint have a KDE integrated release at some point or am I going senile? EDIT: definitely not senile, they had it as an option until 19, bummer

It seems they are silently fixing stuff on their end, packages are being repaired in Package manager and version check is working normally

On the safe side better to wait out for a few days for things to stabilize but it appears everything's getting back up

This one's hilarious, but that one's not gonna work for long as they will axe almost all non-government approved VPNs

Thank you very much for this, finally managed to disable and rebind some remote buttons for apps that Ive already nuked off the TV. Works great with some workarounds.

Thanks for the heads up, I'm distro hopping these days and looking for options on where to settle

Seeing a lot of Manjaro here, what's the deal? I installed it just yesterday on a test machine to check it out as I plan on steering over from windows long-term so just browsing what's out there. Don't really have issues and it ticks the boxes of a more user-friendly installation and comes out of the box with Plasma. I may try out pure Arch or the GUI fork just not to have the hassle of setting up the DE

I blame people's shorter attention spans for it, to a degree I'm also guilty of it. Can't read a book nowadays before my focus shifts somewhere else.

Just to add a perspective from the other side of the fence, I have a gaming laptop running Windows 11 (yes I know) where this (or a very similar) issue has been plaguing Ryzen users for at least a year and a half. The issue is that TPM per se is not causing issues if turned on, but if BitLocker encryption is on it will cause occasional audio stutters and intermittent complete system halts. The only thing that reliably helps is completely turning off Bitlocker, the TPM chip can stay on and is of course needed for W11. OEMs and AMD have been digging their heads in the sand like ostritches and they have released the odd fix that does nothing to fix the underlying issue. I can't see MS doing anything to reverse course on requirements and am getting a bit fed up with their BS lately, browsing what distro might suit me best and might pull the trigger and finally switch...
