We are here. Please continue. Raccoon is the only client I see that makes best use of space. Having releases more often will get the interest back up.

No wonder considering all the concrete being poured into large construction projects.

I did not actually check it, but as it appeared on my phone screen thought it was a web oriented optimised one.
Edit: it is 3000 x 2250. I can easily crop it down to FHD. Thank you.

How does geographic location impact federation?

We don't use pint here. We have some traditional measures that have different absolute values depending on location. We are almost totally metric here.

The OS does not get confused once it is up and running. I had some fun times initially where I could not figure out which bootloader was loading which install. It was actually the hard disk based original bootloader that was being used even if the OS loaded from M2 SSD. After figuring this out, I changed the UUID using some Linux tool. Now there is no confusion.
To avoid this in future, I want to keep the partitions UUID intact, while only reflecting the contents. This is probably not possible with free versions of Macrium etc.
I had cloned my original hard disk installation to SSD using Macrium Reflect. But it caused confusion because they had the same UUID. My plan is to regularly image the Windows partition to the spare hard disk as a backup in case of SSD failure.

Presently I have this bottom of the barrel Logitech K200 membrane keyboard where the keys do not go down smoothly and hence fail to register.
I was thinking of lubricating the keyboard but found out that it only works for mechanical ones.
I have read through this review and decided to buy the Dell KB216 for now. The Logitech one is wireless and for my desktop I want wired one. Wireless ones tend to go to sleep and do not respond instantly after a long period of lack of use.
I remember typing on the HP XT keyboards from 1992 or so. They were soft touch with no click, you just go all the way down smoothly if you push hard. This would allow one to type silently without causing the keyboard noise. Where can I find such type of keyboards? EDIT: I bought the Dell KB216 and presently am happy with it. Let us see how it ages.

Feels nice, closing tabs is bit convoluted though.
I am trying to create an entry in nvram to boot an os of my choice. I have the xxxxxxxxx.efi file for it ready and placed in the second partition that is 32 bit FAT formatted for EFI and also contains my Windows and other OS loaders. I have understood the syntax for referring to a HDD and its partitions as sda1, sda2 etc. so that I can type /dev/sda2 for eg. But with nvme I am not sure. I have a single such nvme sdd in the only M2 slot on motherboard. How to address the second partition in it for efibootmgr command?

I got it installed, not sure if it was nature of theme or if I did it correctly. It felt really off to me, luckily it was on a test user which I deleted now. Installing and configuring Kvantum felt like blindly groping in the bathroom with soap all over face.
I won't be experimenting with it anytime in near future.
In Folder view mode of desktop if I place a folder on the desktop, it can overlap any icons on there already rather than refusing to sit in occupied areas. Is it the desired behavior or am I missing something?

Can we have a KDE splash that shows progress animation rather than the present static one?
For eg. I installed Blur-glassy theme today to check with all options selected in my Fedora 40 installation. Still I needed to install the blur option separately and colors too. After everything still Dolphin and Discover do not look anything like the picture shown. I have seen this while trying out many themes. They either partially deploy or sometimes not. Is it because they were built for KDE 5 and this is 6 or something?

Multiling-o keyboard might fit the bill.
Is there a way to diagnose cause of appearing and disappearing SSD in a desktop when SMART is OK? Mainly NVME M2 type.
What is grouping plasmoid and where to use it? EDIT: I managed to figure it out with the help of other members here and another stranger on the internet. 1. Can be used on both taskbar and desktop. 2. Needs to be in Add Widgets screen, first add Grouping Plasmoid to desktop and then drag and drop other needed widgets into it. 3. No sign of tiling option available still, top tab bar lets you change the one in focus.
I have a multiboot setup and use rEFInd to boot. The EFI option named after Neon actually fails to boot it. I have to go to the specific kernel named option to boot it. I thought re-installing the bootloader might fix it.
When we launch Dolphin, we see a pane on left side listing both mounted and unmounted partitions. If I click on any partition, I can view it but I do not get permission to write to that. As a regular user who is the only user for this PC, how can I set it up so that it gets mounted on clicking with full permission?
I just need one that can add up few items for eg. daily expenses etc. And should pop-up keyboard automatically as soon as I touch a cell. No need for complex formula support or fancy graphics. Single sheet is also OK. Edit: I am looking for something like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.thinctank.cellcalc This one doesn't popup keyboard so needs two touches to enter data. And I do not know how to access stored data!
Can I as a moderator of a community I created myself post as a regular member?
In both Fedora and PCLinuxOS Debian edition which I have installed recently it seems I need to add the only user to sudoers list to perform certain actions. How to do this?
Taking example of Signal, I need to save each and every image manually to be me available outside its sandbox. Why is it like that rather than making it easy for me to use things that have been explicitly sent to me? I have used another messaging app called Twin Me which also does something similar. I always used WhatsApp earlier that allowed me access to the media downloaded in chats and let me take local backups but unfortunately they now allow only Google backups!
I thought this community would be teeming with posts but it appears empty to me. Why?
Most of the messaging apps are "secure" hence save their data, downloads in locked space. They do allow one to save a particular image or file anywhere but it is a manual process not practical if I want to access all images I received in the last 5 years. WhatsApp has been good for me in this regard because it saves them in a user accessible directory. But recently WhatsApp has made it impossible to use offline as backup because it refuses to read from it in a new phone. Only Google Drive backup is allowed. Is there any other app which allows storage in a user accessible location?
Fedora KDE version does not seem to have all packages available through Discover. How can I see all software from Fedora repos?
I am just a regular Linux user with a bit of additional interest in customizing. I can install things from the store, change settings in the GUI comfortably etc. Occassionally there are things I am looking for are not available already but could be with few simple tweaks. For eg. right now I am looking for an analog clock widget different from the standard one already available. I need to reduce its size and/or change its background. I believe this could be done by changing the clock source and building a new clock. Currently I am not knowledgeable enough to do that and also with insufficient free time to learn everything. I would try if there is a standard pre-built ISO configured to this need with all tools pre-installed. Is there such an option available?
I use PCLinuxOS as my primary Linux OS. They are a bit conservative to adapt new updates until they are sure of stability because of rolling nature. KDE is still at 5 there. Heard about Neon and wanted to try KDE 6. I find that they have adopted Windows style approach to updates where we need to reboot to apply the updates and we cannot do anything on the system while the updates are processing. Recently managed to install Fedora because I heard that their EFI is secured or something and can survive clobbering by Windows updates in a dual boot setup. But they also seem to have gone with offline updates. Are offline updates necessary due to them using SystemD or is the Linux world in general moving in this direction?
I dual boot Windows 10 and Linux. Whnever Windows freezes or boot gets interrupted etc. I lose access to Linux because UEFI offers only Windows as boot options. On checking EFI partition still has rEFInd and PCLinuxOS entries needed. I wonder why it cannot see them?
