Our new version of our configuration service Tomte (2.33.0.) brings a new module called text-boot to the users, which implements the correction of a bug when switching to TUXEDO OS 3 and Plasma 6.
Move over, AMD vs. Intel: there's a classic rivalry in the computing world that arguably laid the groundwork for modern personal computing and gaming. Zilog #Z80 vs. MOS #6502 !
A new #article inspired by the fact that even most modern 8-bits are either Z80 or 6502. #retrofunpl
On 28 February 2024, the KDE project released Plasma 6, a rock-solid release with sensible changes. We have integrated Plasma 6 into TUXEDO OS for you over several weeks and tested it extensively so that it now acts as the updated desktop environment for TUXEDO OS.
People were sharing all sorts of conspiracy theories about how Bethesda is trying to erase F1, 2 and NV from history before Howard did the interview, like here: pcgamer.com/…/in-which-i-mostly-debunk-the-latest…
It’s tiresome to see the wrong interpretation repeated, even after they set the story straight.
Today, #Portugal is celebrating 50 years since the #revolution against dictatorship and fascism. This #article tells the stories about what kind of information the state #police (PIDE) collected about its citizens. It tells the stories of 6 people with #documentation from the #archives
Given the troubling times we're living through and the far right growing in Portugal itself, is it still possible to hold the values our parents and grandparents fought for in 1974?
"The Death Spiral Effect: a vicious cycle of self-reinforcing dysfunctional behavior, characterized by continuous flawed decision making, myopic single-minded focus on one (set of) solution(s), resource loss, denial, distrust, micromanagement, dogmatic thinking and learned helplessness."
"In its most compelling stretches, Technofeudalism argues that Apple, Facebook, and Amazon have changed the economy so much that it now resembles Europe’s medieval feudal system. The tech giants are the lords, while everyone else is a peasant, working their land for not much in return."
This just shows, how this site has no clue on what they are talking about. As Chibi review said, they're heading in to becoming the next Kotaku, and he's right, they are.
Affinity has been bought by Canva, to compete with Adobe.
It was of course a matter of time before Affinity would outgrow its status of sympathetic small-scale Adobe alternative, and be sold for large proceeds.

KIRK HAMMETT On METALLICA: "It's Culture In Its Highest F*cking Form"
"That's a blessing, and at the same time, it's hard to contend with."
Interesting article about noise sensitivity. Very recognizable. I couldn't live without my noise-cancelling headphones and earbuds anymore. They've made my life less stressful.

it's a pretty accessible read, IMO!
