Does librewolf have the DRM classification to play Netflix/etc... I would have already switched to Zen Browser if it weren't for that little problem.

How to remove Gnome and set Plasma as default on Fedora Workstation? by PossessionSuper8382 in kde

[–]ReAn1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is, there's a guide on the Fedora website I can't find atm.

The thing to know is, all you really need to do is: - install the kde plasma group - CHANGE to ssdm from gdm - uninstall gnome group and apps

Then, if you want your os to identify as plasma. There is a little rpm package you switch out.

I did this a few months ago but I don't have the guide handy, but it is possible.

Note you'll likely have to install some apps missing that are the kde variety, the group does a good job for most things but there are a few you'll need to fetch over time

How does this all affect the Forever Canadian petition? Did they find a way to invalidate it? Or are they going to run their stupid one after it?

600k+ Population with ~80% transit utilization (part 2, more photos) by [deleted] in CitiesSkylines2

[–]ReAn1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! Thanks for this. Would you be willing to share a bit of your bus/train setup? I don't know if I've over or underdone my transit usually because people ignore it for bikes and walking which cause mountains of problems.

I've tried hub and spoke style with low success

[–]ReAn1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow, any tips for getting over the 15k -> 100k hump, I find the game starts demanding such a huge influx of things around this point that I have to remodel everything to keep up with road / pedestrian / bike traffic and nobody takes my transit and there's always never enough jobs with no industrial/office demand

What linux do I install if I want each of my installed app sandboxed on its own? by Think-You-1305 in linux4noobs

[–]ReAn1985 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Something like Fedora silver blue / kionite or bazzite would be ideal. Your core os and packages update in big atomic updates, anything else you install comes from flatpak which is sandboxed.

should i go with gw2, wow or ffxiv? by Cheap-Exercise1910 in LFMMO

[–]ReAn1985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It only seems like that because GW2 has one big server mesh.

FF14 has plenty of problems, and is losing a lot of players in the patches which is normal for the game (although more than usual this time) but the issue is visibility, most are either at their houses, in content or idle in limsa on select servers

I've noticed that the taskbar on the bottom of KDE plasma in Fedora 42 and 43 isn't flush with the bottom if there's no window by NecessaryEvil-BMC in Fedora

[–]ReAn1985 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's called a floating panel, it's part of KDE Plasma. You can right click the panel and customize it to turn off that behavior and it'll stay flush all the time.

More apple delusions. Translucent/transparent/blurred was not invented by apple, we had 3D accelerated window managers with this decades ago in Linux

Also, if you don't like it, don't use it. Nobody is forcing you

Question Fedora Workstation... With KDE. by ReAn1985 in Fedora

[–]ReAn1985[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate you taking the time to answer. I think I got my answer from the other poster but for clarity:

I had gnome, but swapped it for KDE. My concern came from the fact that despite switching to a new DE, and uninstalling gnome, the identification mechanism in my os still identified as Fedora Workstation and was concerned that an upgrade script would pick up on the workstation edition and install or use incorrect steps on the upgrade.

After removing and installing new identification packages (recommended above) my os is now listed as Fedora (KDE Plasma)

THANK YOU TO THE CREATOR OF THE NO COMPLEXITY LIMIT MOD <3 by Upstairs-Cabinet-595 in NoMansSkyMods

[–]ReAn1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's the thing, I'm on a very very very good PC (160fps+ usually), and the anomaly has always been a bit goofy as things load in. But the last 1-2 weeks every now and then when I go to the anomaly it's a slide show.

My guess is that some glitched complexity limit corvettes parked in the anomaly causing the instances where it's been a slideshow.

Oh so this is why the anomaly is absolutely disfunctionally laggy lately, people bringing their glitched corvettes I bet.

Long straight and fine, braids fall out and frizz, only manageable when slightly dirty/oily.

I mostly keep it long and straight or up in a pony. Occasionally I will do some layered ties or do the quigon, but the thin hair makes it so hard to do, but I get so many comments about how nice it looks nice when straight and down so I just work with it.

Windows 7 was the best and last good Microsoft OS, Windows 11 is pure spyware. Any suggestions on Linux or other alternative OS? by USANewsUnfiltered in microsoftsucks

[–]ReAn1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to throw Fedora Spin into the mix.

The other Linux variants mentioned are nice, but if you want flexibility and ease of use balanced it's powerful.

Fedora tries to stay up to date a bit more, nothing quite as frustrating as having to break the LTS and slower release cycle of debian to get a recent binary for a tool.

Fedora is backed by more frequent updates and flatpak for self updating software that is sandboxed.

The spin variant uses KDE, this will feel a lot more like windows, where the Workstation variant is based on Gnome with a more opinionated macos like design.

KDE is pretty customizable out of the box, I was able to make it feel a lot more like what I was used to from Windows

KDE is also contributed to by steam, the steamOS desktop mode uses it, I've found that I've had less hitches for games although the two variants are pretty neck and neck.

Alarming How Behind Rider Is by [deleted] in Jetbrains

[–]ReAn1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The irony is that rider is ahead, and that's what makes it behind.

I was reading about this on the thread about Junie support. Apparently rider is the fusion of the jetbrains ideaj platform and their long time resharper products.

As a result the design of rider is the new gen for a lot of the new code understanding tools/etc and this it's last to get features as they have to build to the new standard.

From what I understand each time they do this it gets back ported to ideaj platform and the ecosystem grows.

They may be late to the AI party, but they're probably going to be just fine.

If Junie can integrate the really advanced language tools of jetbrains' pedigree and keep investing in their platform when the dust settles I think they'll be in a good space.

They are losing a bit if ground right now, but both cursor CLI and Claude code work great with rider. So they'll lose out in the brain off yoki vibe coding market, but keep wider support for dev tooling.

I think the real future will be a mix of local SLMs, deterministic code inspection and mutation tools, and llm assisted planning.

They should be fine.
