KDE's Android TV alternative, Plasma Bigscreen, rises from the dead with a better UI

Jump

  • I had lots of problems with the previous version when turning the TV off/on while it's running, like losing keyboard access (no focus) until you use the mouse at least once and it updating the display settings every time. Hope it's getting better now.

    TBH the keyboard focus issue is happening on most Login Managers and DEs, so it's not really their fault. I will try it out some time, until then I keep using my SteamOS install.

  • Depending on your TV it might not be enough. I've set it up, but my TV decides my PC doesn't have CEC because it only starts responding after boot, not immediately.

  • Water UK basically said so in the article too

  • I tested chatgpt, it needed some nagging but it could do it. Needed the size, blank and white keywords.

    Obviously a lot harder than it should be, but not impossible.

    • The amount of sugar consumed by children from soft drinks in the UK halved within a year of the sugar tax being introduced, a study has found.

  • They didn't mention how it affected overweight/obesity rates, which is what they aimed to tackle. Every research I found had problems in its modelling or just straight up speculative.

    Plus they are not actually using the extra income for related programmes instead they include it in the general budget, which is not nice...making it just a tax.

    Although from a dental perspective there is no way it's not working.

    Why are other countries are not struggling with obesity rates is what I would like to know even without a sugar tax.

    I just hope they are not planning to introduce a salt tax, food is already bland as is.

  • You can do the same with cp too. Also safer.

    But I use Ventoy nowadays.

    • What do you think it would take for people to drop Twitter & Reddit and move to the Fediverse?

    Jump

  • I didn't even know Lemmy existed until last week (when I specifically searched for a Reddit alternative) even though I heard about Mastodon.

    And it might be confusing to decide where you need to register and what's the difference without reading up how the Fediverse works. Most people don't care about that.

    Also if they are based on the same technology why I can't use a Mastodon account to login/interact with Lemmy (conveniently)

    I guess if we ever have Nomadic identities most of the above could be solved? Except that Lemmy is still almost completely unknown for most of the people.
