    We've got everything on tape!
  • You would be correct :)

  • The Fated Linux Dual-Boot Killing Update Is Here
  • Just turning off secure boot and giving Linux its own drive. Much better this way!

  • The Fated Linux Dual-Boot Killing Update Is Here
  • Windows killed Windows? Oh the irony!

  • The Fated Linux Dual-Boot Killing Update Is Here
  • It’s not enforced, but I kept it on and was using Fedora until I turned it off recently since they support it. If I turn it back on, good chance Secure Boot will complain when booting into Linux.

    I think this is the issue here

  • COSMIC Alpha Released! Here’s what people are saying.
  • Not sure how, but alright! Take it easy.

  • Chrome is Entrenching Third-Party Cookies For Some Sites In A Way That Will Predictably, Inevitably Mislead Users
  • Agreed, but I suppose if all you can do is a make a better product and scream into the void, might as well!

  • COSMIC Alpha Released! Here’s what people are saying.
  • What types of mind blowing improvements were you hoping for?

  • 3 New AI Features Rolling out to Chrome Users on Linux
  • We’re making it even easier to search what you see with the power of Google Lens, compare products across multiple tabs and rediscover sites from your browser history, whether you’re at home or at work.

    • Tab Compare
    • Natural Language Search
    • Visual Search using Lens

  • Zed, GPU-accelerated IDE Written in Rust, is now available for Linux
  • Ah, no full git integration breaks it for me. I’ll definitely check in again when that feature shows up.

  • Which linux podcast do you guys listen to?
  • I knew my ears were burning. Thank you for the shout out! :)

  • GNOME tablet support papercut fixes
  • I agree it's awesome. Looking forward to more, but the blog isn't mine, it's Peter Hutterer :)

  • Improved browser features for desktop and Vivaldi Mail 2.0 amped up with new functionalities
  • Sort of? Their Chromium specific code is kept open, as per the parent license, but their Vivaldi specific stuff is, indeed, closed.

    But that's why you can't Outfire the Fox. 🦊

  • Framework Laptop 13 is Getting a Drop-In RISC-V Mainboard Option
  • Pretty much. If I could get a lock on a price, I might buy one as a glorified Raspberry Pi and stick it in one of those Cooler Master cases for fun and testing.

  • postmarketOS 24.06 Linux Mobile OS Brings KDE Plasma 6, GNOME Mobile 46
  • Could you slap custom roms on those things?

  • How can I quickly "unclog" firefox when it runs out of memory (with 1000/2000 tabs)
  • Kodi and Emby. Ohhhhhh. ISOs. Ha! I knew exactly the types of sorting software that was coming when the idea clicked.

    "Search in all tabs" would be so awesome. I don't do 1000 tabs, but when doing research, I regularly have 30-40 I'm flipping through, and I tend to lose my place, know I saw something, and need that exact tab, and it's always a bit of a chore to track it down before I forget why I wanted the tab in the first place.

    I hope Firefox gets where you need it to be soon. I recently read the story of the 7000 tab person, so it's clearly a use case.

  • How can I quickly "unclog" firefox when it runs out of memory (with 1000/2000 tabs)
  • Those ISOs must go back YEARS! Same with the files! What sorting software helps keep track of all that?

    Notepad++ surely has some type of global search feature to help find the thought you saved for later, right? I'm utterly impressed with how much stuff you seem to have around, yet can still find and make sense of it. I would have long since buried myself under it all and given up.
