Trying out the Photomatix for Linux piece of HDR (that's High Dynamic Range) software and pleasantly surprised at how good (very good! so far) it is. Compared to my older (v4.0) Nik HDR plugin it is both faster, and deals better with challenging frame alignments. The HDR generated options aren't as out there as some of the ones Nik has to offer, but that's something I prefer since I like my HDR a little dialed down.

Still evaluating the unpaid version (free, but leaves watermarks) and definitely worth a look for anyone interested in messing around in the HDR waters.

But what if you just want to start working immediately? We have Fedora Labs for that! These are offerings with specific use cases in mind, like astronomy or design.

Wondering when's the best time to prevent #LinuxKernel regressions from hitting #Fedora #Linux?

It's now, as the first pre-release of #kernel 6.18 is out – which leaves plenty of time to find, report, debug, and fix any problems that Fedora might encounter when it will switch to 6.18.y in about eleven weeks. And testing is not even hard: just use the mainline-wo-mergew copr (https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/kernel-vanilla/mainline-wo-mergew/).

In case you want to play it a bit safer, then testing in two or three weeks is still great! But you really should be testing 6.18-rc6 (five weeks from now), as Linus by then wants all regressions fixed. But at the same time there is still enough time to report, debug, and fix many problems before they reach Fedora – or Arch Linux and openSUSE Tumbleweed, that just like Fedora regularly switch to the latest upstream series.

Testing a newer kernel series only one or two weeks before it enters Fedora[1] is way too late: most bugs can't be fixed anymore before Fedora has to switch to the new series, as the previous series by then is usually obsolete and unsupported upstream.

[1] e.g., either as part of a "kernel testing week" or through the "updates-testing" repos – this is how the update to 6.17.y will soon be prepared for #Fedora 41 and 42, which right now are still on 6.16.y, which was EOLed yesterday.

Hello Fedora 43 Beta, COSMIC spin/remix edition!

Ran into a hiccup while going through the web installer the first time around (bug already reported), but was able to restart the web installer without rebooting and got it installed.

There are some graphical glitches, but I could very well see myself switching from KDE Plasma to COSMIC when it becomes stable.

@firebreathingduck @Em0nM4stodon When it comes to my computer, I use Linux - specifically Debian But I guess your question was about my phone - I use @GrapheneOS. It's a custom ROM based on Android that focuses a lot on privacy and security 🔐 Right now, it's considered the most secure system for mobile devices.

By default, it doesn't include any Google services, but you can install them in a sandbox - they work like regular apps with precise permission control ⚙️ The system even lets you block apps from accessing the network or sensors.

GrapheneOS also has stronger security - many vulnerabilities just don't exist on it, and if they do, they're fixed much faster than in AOSP. I get updates every few days 🔄

Sounds too good to be true? Actually, no - GrapheneOS works just like the regular Android on Pixel devices. The interface, how you use it, and the overall experience are almost the same, so there's no learning curve. The system runs smoothly, is stable and responsive - I haven't had any bugs, crashes or app compatibility issues ✅

About payment apps - I only use cash , so I haven't needed them. From what I know, some of them work fine, especially if Google services are installed in the sandbox. If any don't work, the GrapheneOS community has good documentation for workarounds and alternatives 📚 So any issues are more about setup than system limitations.

Installing the system is easy - you unlock the bootloader, enter fastboot mode, and click a few times on the install page 🖱️ You can find more info at https://grapheneos.org.

I have finally moved over to Linux as my primary platform. In many ways it is like coming home, as I loved working on UNIX machines in the past. Of course, I have been using Linux as a secondary OS for a long time, but I finally made the switch. Microsoft cancelling Windows 10 and the direction Windows 11 is going was just too much for me.

@ruario helped the transition, by making it easy for me to work with multiple concurrent @Vivaldi installs.
That is a must for me as I test a lot of builds at the same time.

📣 Hello! We've formally sent a proposal to the GNOME Foundation and KDE e.V. leadership for a unified Linux App Summit (LAS) that would merge GUADEC, Akademy, and the current LAS into a single event.

We're sharing it with you as an open letter. Our goal is to create a more efficient, cost-effective, and impactful conference for everyone. We invite you to read the full proposal and share your thoughts.

@nixCraft There should be a #nobel price for #gnu and #linux. But I am not sure in which category.

@nixCraft

Historical, indeed.
...and thanks Stallman for #GNU:

Without GNU there'd be nothing open for Linus to start with or contribute to in the first place.

Imagine where we'd be at without those decisions back then?

Forced to either choose Windows or ... ? oh. Without #FOSS/GNU and #Linux, Apple would not exist anymore - and there'd be no Google too.

Wow. Thanks everyone doing GPL to provide choice and hope for all of us!

As you might be aware some of our services (AUR, Forums, main
website) are currently affected by a DDoS attack. We are aware of
the issue and are actively working on mitigation efforts. We are working
with our data center operator and various network security providers,
and we are aware of the community offers to help.

We appreciate your patience and will provide periodic updates while keeping technical
detail internal for security reasons.

I suppose an introduction is in order. Better make one before I forget...

I'm Ferrus, your local queer goat! 🐐

I'm a #pansexual, #agender, and #aromantic of the #autistic #furry variety! My presentation is primarily feminine, though I incorporate some masculine or neutral pieces when the mood strikes me.

I was born and raised in #newzealand, though you wouldn't know that from my accent, a weird american-british-kiwi hybrid.

My Hobbies/Special Interests include but are not limited to: #linux, #anime, #vidogames, #tabletop, #books, #movies, #tv, #space, #fantasy, #sciencefiction, #oldtechnology, #lego, and #sustainablefashion

My favourite pieces of media are: #Warhammer40K, #TheExpanse, #StarTrek, #StarBlazers, #Tensura, #DungeonsAndDragons, #Pathfinder, #WorldofDarkness, #Stargate, and the #nasuverse

I may occasionally toot about these

Currently looking for education in some kind of Systems Administration Role, and run #NixOS on a daily basis. I also build my own machines.

My toots and boosts may occasionally be #NSFW. DNI with these unless you are of legal age.

Feel free to DM me, unless you're a #troll, #bigot, or anything else of the sort.

Offenders will find themselves fed to an Elder Wyrm (the mute/block button)

Together we can reclaim tech for people, not profit.

It was a brief mention, but we're grateful for the positive feedback on our change proposal process from @thelinuxEXP :)

The Fedora change process is supposed to be open and transparent so that contributors and also users can discuss the finer points of Fedora. It's an invitation to see how we work and even engage yourself.

We're glad that folks see the value and participate!

@nixCraft It's because, as companies, their focus is on the enterprise market and specifically server and cloud. Those companies abandoned desktop as a core focus in the business market 15 years ago or longer. Sure, they "have" a desktop in their enterprise products, but they mainly just package up what others do or provide some funding to open source community efforts.
