Plasma is great for the flexibility (shortcuts), and so easy these days.

I was searching for task switcher, expose, etc. And just completely gapped on searching ‘overview’. (Web searches didn’t show it either, possibly because it’s too simple, so nobody posts about it.)

Next up I might have to play some window tiling (e.g. like i3, sway & hyprland).

Amazing - Thanks for that!

I just switched from GNOME to Plasma in the past week, after a long time on gnome, and Plasma 6 is great. The only thing I miss so far is viewing all my windows on the desktop when I push the meta key - alt-tab seems clunky in comparison.

Any suggestions there?

The post you commented on links to the video… If you need an alternate link, here’s the video on NBC: https://www.nbcnews.com/video/elon-musk-delivers-remarks-at-trump-s-inaugural-rally-229787717860

I also wonder how much the shift toward mobile devices in browser market share (>60% today from nearly non-existent 20 years ago) played into declining Firefox market share.

Not only was Chrome lean, clean and fast at the time, it was also the default option on mobile for Android. Same for Safari on iPhone. Since (most?) people use the default option, especially if it worked well during early adoption on mobile, it seems pretty understandable why we see chrome / safari where they are in browser market share.

Anyway, I’m glad we still have options like Firefox, and hope we don’t see decreasing support for the Gecko browser engine associated with the lower market share.

We’ve done this with Home Assistant (on a raspberry pi), and Zwave / ZigBee. Its been working great for years. Also allows for really customizable alerts for different things - and has been super stable.

Not very difficult to setup either - the interface is pretty polished these days!

I’ve had a pretty good experience with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, with a pretty similar use case / criteria.

I’ve done my share of tinkering, and while I learned a lot, and enjoyed Gentoo, Arch, Debian, NixOS, and others (Mandrake, Ubuntu), I sometimes I just want get my work done…

With Tumbleweed, there are a few packages that you’d need to install for codecs, but that’s easily done via the CLI zypper package manager with a single command.

I’d definitely recommend checking it out - its been a solid daily driver for almost 3-years now with very few issues, and lets me focus on getting stuff done. I wonder if this is due to their QA build process (OBS)?

Anyway, good luck & have fun whatever you choose!

Looks like they don’t allow direct linking to the PDF. I’ve updated the link.

If you’re looking for a comprehensive beer style guide, I’d recommend checking out the Beer Judge Certification Program (BJCP) style guidelines: https://www.bjcp.org/download/2021_Guidelines_Beer.pdf

It’s a pretty comprehensive beer style guide, for those who want to go a bit deeper into all the variations of beer, with a decent amount of detail on each style.

From American Light Lagers through to some obscure and historical styles such as the Piwo Grodziskie, or Sahti… And everything in between.

Just checked our major urban centre in Canada, and it’s around 1:450. As a comparison, that makes New Orleans (1:385) pretty well staffed.

Would be cool to find data covering major urban centres across the world for comparisons.
