@schmiddionmobile when rate limiting is happening while watching a video after a while the player does not detect that and switch to lower fps or lower resolutions, first it could drop from 60fps, to 30fps, if that doesnt work drop from 1080p to 480, and then 360 if it still stutters. Please add "stutter" detect and not only go up automatically but also drop back down, alternatively allow manual selection (similar to freetube)
On the way to the #KDE Plasma (Mobile) Sprint in Graz, and putting the final touches on the @openrailwaymap support in Itinerary's live view.
to me, it seems like it would have been news that Google stopped 30 million #ads for "misinformation" in 2023 but zero in 2024 https://blog.zgp.org/google-ads-shitshow-report-2024/ (I guess misinformation has friends in high places now, and there was enough other Google news last week)
Solid furios 13.0.9 upgrade!
1. with pipewire decoder and other gnome/ gtk camera apps can now connect to built in flx1 camera and it works (still have to toggle camera on/off once prior to use at times so not fully debugged and switching back camera 1/2 and back not wired up correctly)
2. with phosh 0.46 and other updates feels like it runs more stable and polished when switching apps and its nice to have the lock screen wallpaper
3. android apps seem to scale more consistently

Reposting this video here from community member Hrdl.
This video demos the improved display controller driver which means goodbye artifacting and welcome to automatic redrawing on a per pixel basis. As seen in the video, the display runs at a higher (and stable) 84Hz refresh rate than the stock 80Hz thanks to some tuning.

@alcinnz i wonder if it is grub but my desktops bringup and boot process is rediculously slow, time to show Apple Logo, takes a while, afterwards it takes again a lot of time to show the grub menu, then on kernel select it takes forever to show the ubuntu encryption unlock screen - in contrast decrypting my entire lvm and time to show ubuntu login screen, and launch ubuntu desktop after logging in is way faster. i surprised i am the only one complaining about grub speed
Google is so sneaky. This prompt inside Gmail gives you three options. The two most visible options (number 1 is 'Try it now' and number 2 is 'Continue') basically mean 'Enable Gemini AI to write emails.' The third option cancels it which is hidden well. Google, you could do better than this. This is a perfect example of a dark pattern. For those who want AI to write basic emails can enable it but there is not need to do this kind of "shady" stuff.
Here @jorge nails the disconnection between traditional Linux desktop distros aimed toward sysadmin (like me), versus what non-sysadmin actually want.
"Many of the things that user run into is that they are using a Linux distro based on this old model of mangling individual packages. And as users have told us, and as we know, remember, it's not like we are interrupting a hockey stick growth party around here for the Linux desktop. Users do not want this."
