OH MY GOD I HAVEN'T LAUGHED THIS HARD AT AN INTERNET POST FOR YEARS LMAOOOOO

So fucking true. We are going through our own phase of work alcoholism worship like USA did in the 70-90s. It's still much better in urbanized areas than it was in the 90s tho.

Where is this btw?

Only ever use 25% of my already small nvme lol, I am at the other end of the bell curve I guess

For me X11 just flat out doesn't work, fucks up the icons and scaling. Unusable.

After searching for it, I think it makes perfect sense since fedora people switched to TuneD in Fedora 41 and that's what I was running.

It has been since like 2022 at least for me. I was on X11 and it looked blurry as hell. Same thing on wayland. One day, out of the blue a KDE update dropped and boom everything was crisp and clear. I thank the lords of wayland everyday 🛐. Since then, it has only gotten better

Switching to tuneD worked! Thank you so much!

Here's what I did, from here. I've slightly modified the commands since that guide is from when tuneD was still on the AUR.

1. Uninstall power-profiles-daemon

    
sudo pacman -Rns power-profiles-daemon


  

2. Check that power-profiles-daemon.service is gone

    
systemctl status power-profiles-daemon


  

The output should be : Unit power-profiles-daemon.service could not be found.

3. Install tuneD:

    
sudo pacman -S tuned


  

4. Enable and start tuneD:

    
systemctl enable tuned
systemctl start tuned


  

5. Check that tuneD is running correctly:

    
● tuned.service - Dynamic System Tuning Daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/tuned.service; enabled; preset: disabled)
     Active: active (running) ....
 

  

6. Check the active profile:

    
tuned-adm active

  

Now, you can use tuned-adm to switch to profiles, but since I am using a DE, I won't be doing that. Now reboot and the power profile slider should be working!

You could check if powerdevil is installed, also the applet won’t re-check if the requirements are fulfilled so you have to restart plasma and maybe even the whole PC

Obviously powerdevil is installed, hence the service, unless I am getting something wrong. I have restarted multiple times.

Didn't she say something like "can't we just drone him" in reference to assange?

Haha, soviet union at its finest I suppose.

God am i tired of this meme

Yeah, that's a good idea. Thanks for the suggestion.

I hate how I need the pressure to amp up during the start of a new semester to actually study.

Also a tip if you haven't used WMs before, run nm-applet --indicator and blueman-applet in the hyprland config file to get WiFi and Bluetooth working on the bundled nwg-panel.

No issues here. Will I don't think I will continue using hyprland but I installed it for curiosity's sake. The only sort of hiccup is the speed with which packages get updated which is enforced by the fedora packing system. Varexxy (?) is insane when it comes to commits so there is a little delay of a week with packages. Some packages like hyprcursor aren't there yet I think. But apart from that no problems.

Hmmm. I didn't know Dell had a Linux laptop. I bought a vostro with windows pre-installed and flashed fedora on it, expecting to get no WiFi webcam but everything worked out. It's interesting that their windows machines run Linux better than their flagship Linux machine.

Ay Mr. Beat! Love his videos.

Is that Joe Biden squatting.
