Tldr: pass the env variable XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 to discord command
This way it's finally possible to open the share screen without it going on a loop forever with asking for you to select a thing to share with the xwaylandvideobridge!
FOSS - ensuring even new hardware stays in use when vendor-support eventually ends!
Whether or not you install GNU/Linux on it today, your new #Mac will eventually lose #Apple support. Thanks to the impressive work of #Asahi#Linux project (@AsahiLinux), it will not need to end up in the landfill once it does.
Damn yeah. Finally fixed the pin entry program to actually use the secret service on #linux#kde#plasma and to stop asking all the time for the password for signing commits.
It seems a somewhat recent breaking change, since this worked before. Anyway, someone had already written about it on #archlinux wiki.
Tldr: after setting the pin entry program on gpg-agent config to use the qt version, we need to change the gpg-agent service to have XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP as anything but "kde".
@winterschon I installed #KDE Neon on a #Thinkpad P14s and everything worked out of the box including WiFi, power management, the printer, and the fingerprint reader. Fantastic experience
New at #HaikuOS / #HaikuPorts, #KDE#markdown 23.08.5, a nice plugin that let's you preview your markdown files while editing them in #Kate (and others).
Okay, this is a question for #Linux desktop enthusiasts out there. I'm getting real tired of the spotty fractional scaling in GNOME so I'm looking to replace it with #KDE. What are some themes/ways you've managed to make your desktop look beautiful?
One of the things that I truly miss in @kde is a modern and actively-maintained diff tool. Gnome/GTK has Meld which despite of ugly GTK style, is a very decent diff tool which also allows comparing "blank files" which user can copy-paste snippets from elsewhere. #KDE has kdiff3 and kompare, both of which feel and look dated and old-school.
#KDE will mentor ten projects in Google Summer of Code (#GSoC) this year, including two projects for #LabPlot, a FREE, open source and cross-platform #DataVisualization and #DataAnalysis software.
Matrix certrainly has its rough edges, but I find it awesome that pretty much every major Linux community now has their dedicated space. All federated, of course.
This is wonderful news but seeing the list of patrons, why does #Valve not join the sponsorship programme though? - I know (or I think at least) that they often/occasionally sponsor #KDE (as an org, or devs) to do some work for them, and I'm not denying that they contribute a lot through funds/code to #FOSS/#Linux, but seeing that the #SteamDeck comes shipped with #KDEPlasma (which I still think is a really smart decision) and since Plasma is a huge part of the Steam Deck (literally half of the software exp), it'd be great to see Valve commit to a recurring sponsorship programme to the KDE folks.
They certainly have the money for it, surely. I hope this will be true someday.
Truly very happy that Nancy Drew: Mystery Of The Seven Keys is released!
I spent a large portion of last year working on it, and I’m excited to see how all the fans will receive it.
Hoping to catch some of you streamers solve the puzzles, the HeR team really stumped me with some of them!
I just received an email from the #KDE bug tracker about a KHTML bug I subscribed to 20 years ago. It was not fixed, but that's ok. 🙂🤷 KHTML was eventually forked into WebKit and in turn Blink, powering Safari and Chromium. Two projects that receive a constant flux of contributions by @igalia and are one of the focus of our business. Long live KHTML! 🥂
