You can’t even install it on Linux, they killed the native app years ago and now tell you to use the browser version


Link previews happen if you hold click on a link or choose it in the right click menu. By default it shows pretty much just the title of the page and a banner asking you to enable ai summaries.
It’s kinda annoying, but not because of the ai. And you can easily disable it


That’s the old way to support calls. The new way is MatrixRTC/Livekit. Not all clients support it yet, but the website says commet supports that too.


If you want to send files between just your own devices KDE Connect is great and can do many other things too. If you are on Gnome there is a gnome extension for better integration (gsconnect I think?)

You don’t need Thunderbolt for Displayport alt mode. It’s a separate spec that can also be implemented independently. I have a dock that’s not Thunderbolt but supports DP alt mode.
But Thunderbolt has some additional stuff too


Last I heard Cinnamon does not have stable Wayland support yet. One of the reasons Wayland was made is because multi-screen support on the old X11 is an ugly hack. Unlike wayland, it doesn’t play well with screens of different resolutions, refresh rates, adaptive sync compatibility or HDR.


Mint isn’t wayland yet and X11 does not support adaptive sync if multiple monitors are connected


No. The Rust code in the kernel is GPLv2 just like the rest of the kernel. The licence of the compiler has nothing to do with that, that’s nonsense Rust haters make up.
You can argue against independent projects like the Rust coreutils not using a copyleft license, but that has nothing to do with Rust or the kernel. There are independent C projects without non-copyleft licenses too.


“USB4” (not USB 4.0) released in 2019 and “USB4 Version 2.0” (not USB 4.1) released in 2022.


Love that channel :(


Nvidia doesn’t support vaapi, so when I still had an nvidia card I needed to install a compatibility layer like this. You might have more problems if you want to use a Chromium based browser though


For .de you don’t need any of that domain privacy stuff. .de domains don’t reveal anything over whois except the company you registered the domain at (and DNS servers, but domains are useless without that). You have to do some special request to get more than that. Idk how hard it is to make such a request though

But apparently btrfs can get corrupted if it unexpectedly loses power?
Afaik this is only a problem if you use RAID 5 or 6. Otherwise it’s as solid as other CoW filesystems like zfs.

uBlock origin blocks it from even downloading, so it can’t even try to run
