  • Why openSUSE is the perfect OS for handhelds

    Jump

  • Agree with this. Also they extensively use OpenQA CI and testing framework and it is what makes the rolling release openSUSE Tumbleweed the most stable rolling release distribution I have used since they can quickly catch an updated package that would cause problems and halt it being introduced. And even if something problematic would get through they really have excellent integration of BTRFS snapshoting with zypper and GRUB and system in general so you can easily boot from the last known working snapshot before the problematic update. And I would also say they have the best integration of KDE Plasma and KDE software of any distro out there. so yeah for these reasons I also consider openSUSE the bets GNU/Linux distribution out there.

  • Kiosk Mode and Linux

    Jump

  • KDE Plasma desktop and apps also have a Kiosk mode/framework for deployment and lockdown built-in, that can come in handy

    Introduction

  • Bench-marks with phoronix test suite

    Jump

  • As far as I remember you can only compare after you upload a benchmark test/suite result to the site. For example when you upload a VkMark benchmark your result should be shown on that test page under Recent Test Results. You can then select your result and some other to compare them. And if you select to re-run a test suite from Latest Test Results the text at the top gives you the command to run it and automatically compare the results, e.g. for GPU CPU HDD Usage and Temperature test Unigine Heaven Fullscreen 2560x1440:

    Compare your own system(s) to this result file with the Phoronix Test Suite by running the command: phoronix-test-suite benchmark 2410251-MRPI-241025885

  • Mastodon 4.3 released

    Jump

  • I hope not. Had very bad experience with these and toxicity they enabled on Xitter and one of the main reasons why I left it for mastodon quite early. I would much more like to see if they focused on making it possible to also migrate posts when you change an instance/server.

  • Installed on my openSUSE Tumbleweed and Gentoo computers and so far Plasma 6.2 working great 👍

  • Looking for a distribution that I could replicate from one computer to another

    Jump

  • Cloning the system and home partitions always worked fine for me with openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma desktop. Another option openSUSE offers is AutoYaST

    AutoYaST is a system for unattended mass deployment of openSUSE Leap systems. It uses an AutoYaST profile that contains installation and configuration data.

  • HDMI 2.1

    Jump

  • Oh how I wish those TV manufacturers would get rid of HDMI and replace it with DisplyPort. HDMI mafia does not allow opensource implementations of HDMI specification and so not all latest features of it can be supported by graphics card drivers on GNU/Linux. Death to HDMI!

  • linux or windows?

    Jump

  • GNU/Linux only, with KDE Plasma for desktop as possible. Using it on work laptop (Kubuntu), home laptop (openSUSE Tumbleweed), PC (openSUSE Tumbleweed, also used for gaming), Steam Deck (Arch-based SteamOS). I don't use spyware/adware so Windows is out of question for me. Also it is not free as in freedom and opensource.
