Far superior colorblind adjustment option in KDE with Wayland

Fri, 18 Sep 2026 07:06:31 +0200

I am making this post so that it archives and helps those with colorblindness. KDE is dropping X11, so xrandr will not work globally on KDE anymore since it needs X11 for that. What DOES work is Kgamma2. It lets you make your own custom icc profile within KDE using Wayland. No need to make scripts, you just move a Red, Green and Blue slider and... Weiterlesen

Miracle-wm v0.11 gains a fancy new overview mode

Fri, 18 Sep 2026 06:31:55 +0200

Miracle-wm v0.11.0 gains a fancy new overview mode inspired by GNOME Shell. For those unfamiliar with miracle-wm, it’s a tiling window manager built around the Wayland compositor Mir, created to be a “hackable and flashy” alternative to other tiling WMs, like hyprland and sway. The overview mode gives users an easy way to select windows and... Weiterlesen

Considering moving to Mint from Ubuntu in our team for software development as the upgrade issues with Ubuntu have been a bit of a headache and its just wasting a lot of time but concerned about the security implications of potentially having packages up

Has anyone done the same? I am very familiar with both OS's but don't fully understand the security and update paths of Ubuntu vs Mint and how much expose we would have. In an ideal world I would like the best overall option for security but in terms of resources we are limited so need something that doesn't take up too much time to maintain.... Weiterlesen

Last week a PS5 Linux kernel maintainer quit, and the quote that spread across Hacker News was blunt: "a bunch of noobs using LLMs" that "they don't understand."

Would you actually use a Linux desktop with an infinite canvas?

Thu, 17 Sep 2026 16:37:07 +0200

I'm curious what Linux users think about a desktop environment with two different ways of managing windows: Classic mode — a traditional desktop workflow, closer to what you'd expect from KDE Plasma, GNOME, Windows, etc.: normal window placement, familiar multi-monitor behavior, a configurable panel/dock, and no infinite canvas.

[$] Thread-identity switcheroo for io_uring

Thu, 17 Sep 2026 16:37:06 +0200

The io_uring subsystem is all about asynchronous execution; applications count on it to not block — unless explicitly requested to. Within io_uring, maintaining the "never blocks" guarantee has sometimes been a challenge, given that many paths in the kernel were never designed for asynchronous execution. This problem has been worked around, but at... Weiterlesen
