Thanks and thanks for all the hardwork on universal blue.

Who said anything about destroying cars¿? I am just talking about selling them. I do hope the people whose cars were burnt had insurance. Then they could claim that and use it to buy a better car from a non nazi manufacturer.

If you own a Telsa, sell it.

Realistically, this makes no difference. Tesla has already got the money from the seller. The only person losing is the seller who now sells the car at lower price than they bought it for and have to put in more money to buy a replacement vehicle.

Flood the market with used Swasticars that nobody wants to be associated with and nobody will buy the new ones. Money is the only thing they understand.

The only ones who will buy Teslas now are conservatives and they will buy new ‘just to show support for Musk’.

By implementing it in mutter

Which is why decentralised open source platforms are very important.

Companies are going to shit more quickly these days

Quite literally in this case

This was common in budget laptops 10 years ago. I had a Asus laptop with the same resolution and I have seen others with this resolution as well

My suspicion is that there’s some kind of extra data being pushed over the HDMI, since the Smart Board is more than just a monitor

Yeah I have similar suspicions. Maybe some non standard HDMI protocols or extensions at play. After all it is a patented, closed source protocol. Standard monitors and TVs (smart or otherwise) connect without any issue.

I would start by asking in the ublue Discord. There may be an easy fix, or they may direct you to the project where you should file a bug report.

Thanks for the advice. I will start with this.

So from some of your comments, it seems that by sharpness, you are referring to the sharpness of text in gnome on high resolution displays (4k in your case) when compared to macos or windows. Well in my experience, text rendering in Linux hasn’t been as good as the macos or windows but it has been improving steadily. If I remember correctly, the differences lie in the anti aliasing done to text to make them sharper. Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.

Also maybe edit your post to mention that the high quality you are talking about is the sharpness of font rendering.

That is one solution lmao

Hey are you still facing this issue. I also faced this twice on fedora 41 silverblue but it seems to have resolved itself after some updates

This is not a malfunctioning hardware thing. I faced the same issue for a few days on silverblue, where my 2 year old zen3 laptop would slow down to a crawl and eventually the gnome-shell would freeze. Somehow it resolved itself somewhere between kernel and gnome-shell + mutter updates

Between this comment about arch and the other comment about opensuse, it must only be apt which has issues with large updates with complicated dependency chains. I remember 5-6 years ago Ubuntu borking itself when I tried to update after a decent gap and had 100+ packages to update. There is also the fact that people used to advice me to make a clean install in lieu of updating whenever a new version of Ubuntu dropped.

Well in an immutable distro, there is little to no chance for the system to end up in an unusable state (I guess it is the same for distros which apply the updates atomically). Traditional distros are far more likely to bork when so much shit is updated at once

The ultra 7 is actually a good all rounder. Decent performance (well balanced between gaming and production workloads), good efficiency and good pricing with respect to the AMD options. AMD is of course better for pure productivity (9950x), pure gaming (7800x3d and the upcoming 9800x3d) and is better at the low end (7600, 7600x)

If you are speaking about stock Linux mint Xfce, with the default kernal, mesa version etc., your support for very new hardware - Arrow lake, battlemage and RDNA 4 will be imperfect. In general, very new hardware (launched within the last 6 months) will not be supported properly because the lts kernel being used was written before these products were launched

Yeah none of this is your fault. You bought what you had to and made sense at the time.

Now I’d try to buy a nice second hand linux friendly machine 😇

Do this only if it makes financial sense. Other than the bluetooth issues, your Surface go must be working fine.

Edit : As for your mouse, you can get one with a 2.4GHz wireless dongle/usb receiver. That way you get a wireless mouse without needing to use bluetooth.

Neither should you give up blutooth on linux. It is microsoft’s fault for using proprietary drivers for bluetooth instead of using a card that has open source support (like all the intel wireless cards are top of the line and have great open source support, they could have used that)

I haven’t hit a deer, not even come close since they aren’t a problem in my country. You are most probably right and i have seen videos of deer just jumping onto the road at the last second which causes an unavoidable accident. My viewpoint is that when you hit a creature(animal or human) at 80mph, they are most certainly dead. If you hit them at 60, they might survive but be gravely wounded. If are able to react and slow down before contact to about 30, they will be hurt but at least they have a much better chance of the survival. Somehow going at same speeds during the day and during the night seems very risky
