I like the before more. I would also like the color of the active tab to be the same as the area’s backgroud it’s connected to, like in Linux Mint’s default theme.

Definitely an odd choice.

There is Fedora CoreOS (meant for servers), but I’ve never tried installing a desktop on that.

Yes, though it’s not exposed to the user yet.

You can install Fedora Atomic Sway then install Hyprland on that with rpm-ostree install hyprland.

It’s weird how the templates folder is so rarely used. Even on Gnome, where basic things like creating a .txt is not there (only new folder), “new user friendly” distros like Ubuntu don’t add them as templates.

There is a second runtime for KDE stuff.

I think Ultramarine Linux is close to that. Unfortunately their site doesn’t make specific mentions of all their changes.

There’s still OpenGL backends, a newer one that shares the same backend as the Vulkan renderer and the old OpenGL renderer.

I’m using Silverblue and it also symlinks to /var/mnt. I don’t think it does that on traditional distros, like Fedora 40 Workstation.

Not aware of any correct pictures, but I can tell you what’s wrong with this one

• /usr: explaining it as “Unix System Resources” is a bit vague
• /bin: /bin is usually a symlink to /usr/bin
• /sbin: /sbin is usually a symlink to /usr/sbin, distros like Fedora are also looking into merging sbin into bin
• /opt: many, I’d say most, “add-on applications” put themselves in bin
• /media: /media is usually a symlink to /run/media, also weird to mention CD-ROMs when flash drives and other forms of storage get mounted here by default
• /mnt: i would disagree about the temporary part, as I mentioned before, stuff like flash drives are usually mounted in /run/media by default
• /root: the root user is usually not enabled on home systems
• /lib: /lib is usually a symlink to /usr/lib

I would also like the mention that the FHS standard wasn’t designed to be elegant, well thought out system. It mainly documents how the filesystem has been traditionally laid out. I forget which folder(s), but once a new folder has been made just because the main hard drive in a developer’s system filled up so they created a new folder named something different on a secondary hard drive.

I don’t get why this sort of picture always gets posted and upvoted when it’s wrong for most distros nowadays.

My drive was brand new when the issue started. I don’t think SMART showed anything wrong with it, apart maybe from the improper shutdowns count.

Not sure if it was Linux only, I never had Windows installed on that drive.

There’s nothing technical stopping Google from sending the prompt text (and maybe generated results) back to their servers. Only political/social backlash for worsened privacy.

I experienced that failed run shutdown binary a lot, the issue was that the OS I installed the drive on was defective. In use, the entire filesystem would become read only, the OS would freak out, and shutting down would fail with that message.

LLMs are expensive to run, so locally running them saves Google money.

Are the default policies good though? There’s some collaboration between Fedora and Tumbleweed for SELinux policies, I imagine even more now since Tumbleweed plans to move to SELinux in the near future and derivatives like Aeon are already using SELinux.

Not a fan of the look or feel of the teaser. I feel like adapting the Fallen Kingdom series into a movie would be a better choice. Or even something more akin to Minecraft Story Mode in spite of its somewhat controversial nature.
