    • Let's put an end to the discussion; what is the best way?

    Jump

  • always using a bag clip. Reusing the bag clip if it needs to be eaten soon (e.g. at a party) since it's less of a fuss to remove it.

    • Why is coal and fossil fuels still used?

  • not saying it's important, but if you tell a meat-lover to give up meat they will say no. Maybe it wasn't the best analogy...

  • Money mostly. It generates a lot of profit and it costs money to switch. In many of countries oil, gas, etc. are like a huge portion of their GDP. It's like trying to get people to eat less meat. It would be better and more environmentally friendly, but everyone is too dependent on meat.

    • howdy facial recognition with fedora workstation 42

    Jump

  • Yeah it was mentioned in the github repo near the bottom I think. They really don't want you do use it as your only method of auth. I use it because it's convenient, not for its security.

    p.s. howdy is WAY faster at recognising than Windows Hello and doesn't show up the stupid "looking for your face" pop up. Probably bc it isn't as secure (it can be fooled by a picture of your face)

    • LibreOffice: We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues

    Jump

  • LibreOffice's UI is fine on Linux, on Windows not so much. OnlyOffice is a good alternative for Windows

  • This happened to me once and I had to redo my coursework over the weekend...now I use Fedora :D

    • What's a good, beginner-friendly distro that allows for easy switching between GNOME and KDE?

    Jump

  • woah, that's a lot of information. Atomic distros do sound pretty good. I might try one someday, but I've already setup Fedora Workstation and am very happy with it :D

    • It's basically a cheat code

    Jump

  • i thought that was a hand with too many fingers. teeth make more sense.

    • (RESOLVED) Network is slow after installing Fedora

    Jump

  • Aside from this issue, Fedora has been great! Everything works as expected, UI is fast and snappy, and somehow the file system seems to be a bit faster too (read/write speeds are more consistent)

  • I have thought it might be because dual booting makes the drivers confused or soemrhing

  • Yeah, my phone’s download speeds are fine (>100MB/s)
