After first ring got destroyed the eruption of Mt. Doom was so loud that Sam and Frodo got tinnitus.

It rings in their ears constantly. Sauron will live on until hobbits find a cure or become deaf or until they both die.

I suppose so. The fact he's getting down voted is also funny.

I've looked trough your comment history and I've found at least 7 instances in which you were not involved in any drama. That's surprisingly not enough examples so the lack of evidence is kind of suspicious and serves as an evidence against your original statement.

I'm fine with it as long as it's out of the way until I'll need it and not shoved down my throat like Google or MS do it.

Every time you need to use a Snap application half of your data will randomly disappear

I've never used fractional scaling but it's obvious you don't understand that it's not about resolution but about screen size+resolution. On small displays with big resulutions like modern laptops a fractional scaling is absolutely essential unless you want to squint your eyes even with 20/20 vision.

I'm still waiting for ThanosLinux that's based on Ubuntu and only uses Snaps.

It would. At least we've go Photopea which can cover most needs. Probably still not a viable alternative for professionals... depending on what you need to do.

Not yet but I'd at least narrow it down to Arch and Fedora. I don't think either of those is a bad choice.

Guess I wont stop then. Kids crossing the road? Too bad, I don't wanna see the ads just because you have to get to the other side...

Depends on how you spin the narrative

 

For context:

I'm copying the same files to the same USB drive for comparison from Windows and from my Fedora 41 Workstation.

Around 10k photos.

Windows PC: Dual Core AMD Athlon from 2009, 4GB RAM, old HDD, takes around 40min to copy the files to USB

Linux PC: 5800X3D, 64GB RAM, NVMe SSD, takes around 3h to copy the same files to the same USB stick

I've tried chagning from NTFS to exFAT but the same result. What can I do to improve this? It's really annoying.

EDIT - UPDATE: Booting live Windows11 USB has worked and BIOS has been updated (but holy cow, Linux live USB feels like it's running on SSD while Windows live USB feels like it's running from floppy disk)

Hi, I have a Yoga Slim 6 14APU8 - Type 82X3 laptop with Fedora Workstation 41 and I've tried to go and update my BIOS but unfortunately they only offer the .exe file to do it from within Windows. I don't want to install Windows just to update my BIOS. I honestly though it will be a matter of few minutes by me just copying the BIOS file on a USB drive and then installing it directly from within BIOS as usual on other devices...

I've tried the sudo fwupdmgr update command but it just says that there is nothing that can be updated.

My current BIOS version is M4CN30WW and the new one is M4CN36WW.

I've tried searching for how to do this and I've found multiple guides using geteltorito but they all say to download the .iso and not the .exe version of the BIOS file but I can't find the .iso version anywhere on their website, or am I just blind or is there some other way to do this?

 

Hi, I'm trying the desktop Grayjay app and it seems to work fine.

I just have to keep locating the app in folder whenever I want to launch it so I found out how to make it appear in the GNOME Apps and launch it there.

However it requires me to copy 2 folders (cef,wwwroot) from the app folder into my "/home/werecat" folder and I don't understand why when it can launch just fine from the executable without me having to do that.

Any idea on what I'm missing or doing wrong? The main goal is to add the app to my Dash to Dock.

Hi, I'm trying to get SCALE to work but I'm so confused by what they mean by PATH and I'm stuck.

https://github.com/spectral-compute/scale-docs/blob/master/docs/manual/how-to-use.md

I'm at the CMAKE step.

This is the official guide I'm following. I do understand what they mean by SCALE_PATH though as that is clearly explained but PATH is just very vague to me or I'm just misunderstanding it completely.
