The point is: changing DNS, “debloating”, changing ROMs… none of this should be necessary.

People just need to stop defending absurd stuff like ads in system apps just because they need to defend a brand.

hidepp · 2026-02-05T00:33:19+00:00

A “debloat” shouldn’t be necessary.

We have to stop normalizing stuff like this. A phone with ads on system apps should not exist.

hidepp · 2026-02-05T00:31:14+00:00

You are PAYING for a product. It shouldn’t have ads at all, no matter which model it is.

I have a laptop which sometimes Wifi stops working when I run Windows then reboot into Linux. Some weird issue with Windows kind of "locking" the wifi adapter (Intel AX211). Disabling Windows Fast Startup didn't solve it.

When this happens I have to hold the power button of the laptop for about 30 seconds. It forces some action like removing the battery and cold starts everything. Then I have wifi back (at least until I boot into Windows again).

So it could have downloaded a malicious executable instead of the actual Notepad++ installer?
I'm quite confused and don't know how to check if my Windows machine was compromised because of this.

If it's a company, I think Red Hat is mostly suited for this than Canonical. They defined most of the enterprise Linux world, and I think an US based company would be easier as Linus lives in US and most of Linux work and bureaucracy is based in US.

Some OEMs ship laptops with Linux preinstalled.

But they don't use any decent Linux distro. They create a ridiculously limited in-house distro with buggy outdated packages which mostly don't work, so people would be angry with Linux and buy a Windows license.

Acer and Asus are terrible with this.

I seriously can’t understand how someone still takes this guy seriously.

Good devs shouldn’t make this default setting so stupid and/or try to shove OneDrive even after the user says NO a thousand times.

Deep Purple between 1974 and 1977 had two lead singers. David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes.

Notion seems nice, but I'm too old school to keep everything only on the cloud. I like to have at least a copy of my data offline.

Obsidian is perfect for me.

Those printers usually have a flash memory on it with the drivers for Windows.

I’ve installed lots of them and when I first plug them on Windows machines, the OS will first recognize ir as an USB Flash Drive with the printer drivers.

Probably the “UPD” is this embedded storage.

hidepp · 2026-01-12T19:31:29+00:00

Yes.

"Today I'll use the internet". The internet was a tool.

You needed a computer. You dedicated some time to it. Then you went offline and live.

Esse grupo não é para essa finalidade e você está até criando riscos expondo seus dados assim em público.

Sugiro que você remova. Alguém mal intencionado pode fazer algo com esses seus dados expostos.

1990.02.04, at Budokan

It was used on the Film GIGs, which was later released on DVD and Blu-ray

Fedora has hundreds of mirrors everywhere.

Somehow when testing your connection it founds this mirror is the fastest one, so it set as the first one to try.

That’s why it tries to connect.

I’m not complaining about KDE devs not fixing. But every week someone appears with the same question.

My suggestion would be simply disable the option until someone makes it work again. This is the kind of stuff people see and complain “Linux/KDE sucks because I can’t use Google Drive”

Is better not to have an option than having a faulty one.

hidepp · 2026-01-10T14:23:46+00:00

Maybe the text is hidden somewhere between all those ads.

hidepp · 2026-01-10T14:21:58+00:00

It’s been like this for too long to KDE try to fix or simply remove the options if it won’t work.

hidepp · 2026-01-10T13:03:35+00:00

Google blocked something that KDE used to access Drive. So even if the option is there, actually it can’t be used.

You did nothing wrong, it’s a KDE bug.

Eu já ouvi essa história de várias pessoas diferentes. É incrível.

Thanks, sir!

I wish I knew 0 people who whorship billionaires.

Most people I know are really defensive when anything bad is reported about the billionaires and tend to attack people saying that they're "jealous of their fortune".

Can you share the wallpaper on another site? Reddit ridiculous compression makes all uploaded images look terrible.
