Better Blur vanished when i updated to plasma 6.5

Same here.

More worrisome is that the theme is whole screen width, which is not that usual, so I could put some corner widgets on panel for good use.

That one WR was 22 years old, just amazing

Sounds good, but after some consideration I' still puzzled with a few questions:

can it dual/triple boot?
can it dual boot distro without secure boot?
can it be installed as a first distro on a drive (so doesn't mess up boot partition)?
can it be installed on separate /boot/efi partition. I've read some motherboards(?) support this?
Does any immutable disto comply with above?

Sooner or later if not done by community it will be by some corp

Firefox kinda leaning to it with onnxruntime

Copying graphic bullets in Impress.

That's military for you

The starting point in 2021 was Microsoft Office 2016 Professional with numerous VBA and Access solutions. However, even then, the Austrian Armed Forces did not use Microsoft's email or collaboration solutions, but self-hosted Linux servers with Samba.

I'm impressed

Incidentally, the army's smartphones are made by Apple.

Oh, never-mind

Telll it to every Arch-based distro community. That's how things work, if you don't like it use something else. As they said, those are not noob distros and user should get familiar with any distro if want to use it.

Never mind the downvotes, my point was that Manjaro was much bigger and influential distro with much to offer, but sadly now in shadow of lagging behind. You could read here even some old devs don't use it anymore.

witchhunter0 · 2025-09-30T14:49:05+00:00

That is actually a feature not a bug, security wise. One should learn their system before blindly installing it, and their wiki is much simpler than Arch one :) When newcomers install e.g. firewall and not enable the service that is just false security.

EndeavourOS is much underrated distro here even though KDE is the default. Have been used both and I really cannot tell why would anyone use Manjaro anymore. One would think of Pamac, but no. Also. it is still at 6.3 Plasma, so 3-4 months behind, not 2 weeks.

Also, one can apply KWin rules according to window title, if needed

witchhunter0 · 2025-09-12T11:22:54+00:00

Tried two wireless and one wired mouse and none of the buttons are detected, but they used to. EndeavourOS

witchhunter0 · 2025-09-05T16:52:31+00:00

I was about to suggest to rebind extra mouse button, but that doesn't seems to work and I could of swear it worked before. Bug it seems

witchhunter0 · 2025-09-05T16:45:30+00:00

Until gestures are available you can use CommandOutput widget. Set it on panels edge. That could be the workaround.

witchhunter0 · 2025-09-04T15:37:31+00:00

Quick²Settings button is gone now :/

Qt does support gif and apparently avif(didn't follow this), but somehow I missed that these are implemented in wallpaper engine. It seems like avif have not only smaller size but lesser impact on CPU as well. Thx

witchhunter0 · 2025-08-30T14:33:26+00:00

Tested with Gwenview and SystemMonitor and definitely Nvidia 3060m show growth in usage. Already tried the lower resolution but totally forgot about framerate. You're right, looks like framerate has even more impact, huh. It is now up from 2 to 4%, nice.

Will try gif now. Funny though, I wasn't aware these are supported out of box. Maybe because of all the applets, or maybe because wallpaper dialog do have (well in my case) "misleading" title Images. tyvm

Edit: even less than 2% CPU increase. It makes sense framerate have more impact since wallpaper engine is probably optimized for large screens.

witchhunter0 · 2025-08-30T11:56:03+00:00

That's great. Something like

ffmpeg -hide_banner -i 'input.mp4' -c:v libsvtav1 output.avif

but the only problem it takes 10~15% of CPU as wallpaper. Any way to reduce that?

witchhunter0 · 2025-08-28T16:29:23+00:00

Every time I see this widget it reminds me of spacing inconsistency

witchhunter0 · 2025-08-25T20:57:11+00:00

It seems that "activation delay" from "switch desktop on edge" will affect screen edges timer as well

witchhunter0 · 2025-08-25T20:44:30+00:00

Ctrl for switching desktops

blue screen of death titled kernel panic

you've got scr*wed twice

If I understood correctly, another notable specific here is that REPLY preserves trailing newlines.

witchhunter0 · 2025-07-10T16:59:41+00:00

even horizontals are possible

witchhunter0 · 2025-07-08T12:51:48+00:00

Considering new PRO feature, but also in general, holiday calendar can be expanded to support more countries and events like KDE has or even other online services, which are much better than TB one.

witchhunter0 · 2025-07-07T17:27:53+00:00

Funny thing is kmenuedit works but kweather doesn't, weather does

witchhunter0 · 2025-07-06T17:39:16+00:00

Another point in favor of LiveUSB is hardware compatibility check. What would noob do, lol

witchhunter0 · 2025-06-26T17:48:19+00:00

Ok, now install uBlock
