Do you like Debian Emerald theme‘s colors, but you’d rather not have Debian’s logo, and maybe even would like a not so abstract image? I do, so here you go! Made with Blender using Cycles. Hopefully the images will stay at full resolution (1920x1080). Also, first time I play with geometry nodes, and wow, they are powerful!

"This Week in Plasma" brings the news that Plasma 6.5 will have automatic day/night theme switching, that you can choose which Global Themes to show on the Quick Settings page, and that you can set dynamic wallpaper coloration to be based on the background color scheme or the time of day, or always light, or always dark.

Can't help to wonder why does #Signal push their #smartphone version so hard? Smartphones are the least #secure #platforms for personal messaging, with a long and ugly track record of #privacy #violations, however it's very hard to register, install or use Signal without using a smartphone. Even if the #desktop #application is used, it requires constantly going back and forth to the smartphone version. That's weird for a privacy oriented service. Is there something fishy going on under the hood?

Ha! I just posted a few days ago that I am back with #Wayland on my #Kubuntu #2404 #desktop and things are working, mostly. Well... I am back on #X11. I was on it editing some pictures on #Digikam and then the ram and CPU maxed out, I couldn't even get into virtual terminal and had to hard reboot. Plus size is that #KDEconnect works. For whatever reason, KDE Connect could not see my phone while on Wayland?!
Oh well, I'll leave it for now and give it another try on #2604 haha.

Linux Kernel 6.16 is officially out!
