I say Microsoft should have no right whatsoever to have a Windows keyboard layout in the first place, and keyboard MFG's should tell them to F*ck off!! I can't stand that I have a "Windows key" with their crappy logo on it! If anything it should just have a representation of a start menu, or keyboards should come with one for at least the most popular OS's or make them available for purchase. That way I could have a tux on it which I would love!
👍Thanks again Michael.
Need some nice jazz in the background or some Suzy Solar blowing up the mids and background! 😩
I think you've made a misprint in the title
Linuz 6.7 is my favorite OS 😍
I hate fwupd with passion. It constantly tries to update Secure Boot dbx and fails.
Also, there is absolutely no reason to update dbx. Most Linux/Windows dualbooters are forced to enable Secure Boot (as some apps on Windows now require Secure Boot to be enabled). If there are exploits, it's good for us. Why arbitrarily limit what can be booted on your own computer, just because Microsoft said so?
cover floorp browser, thanks
What is Linuz ?
keep up the cool videos, i am a new subscriber btw
Hello everybody, I post again in this video hoping for answers or advice for my Lenovo L520.
I am looking for a way to install Linux on a Lenovo L520 i5 with Intel HD Graphics. I can start a live distro like Mint Cinnamon 21.1 in compatibility mode but after I click Install and Boot, I have a black screen. Any idea what to look at ? I tried to set up Grub with a different option found on a forum ( e.g. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet noapic acpi=off " ) but it wasn't successful.
Any idea ? Forum ? Successful recipe ? A distro known to work well with that hardware ?
Thanks
The AI button is nothing more than Microsoft pushing Bing on us😢
FYI, the kodi example is about the (old) app icon having a drop shadow not the screenshots
4:10 snap needs to allow community servers and themes to actually work with snaps for me to even think of installing it.
If Snaps and Flatpaks are the future why can't I find them for databases and web servers? Everything is being half arsed. I would rather Linux developers work with GUI designers to get Linux out of being a terminal OS into a visual OS like iOS and Windows so that you can give it to a normal person and they wouldn't have any issues using it. Otherwise we are never going to see an adoption of Linux into the mainstream.
I thought Solus was dead.
Microsoft isn't "creating" a copilot key, they're repurposing an existing key that almost no one uses called the menu or applications key. It's the one just to the left of the Ctrl key on the right side of the keyboard. Whether anyone actually starts using the key remains to be seen…
Closed Captions got FWUPD right!
@17:04 you said: "remember to like that smash button" was that intentional?
127th! Well I guess I needed a reason to write a comment, just wanted to mention I like your videos. Have a nice new year 🙂
How is the ChatGPT in Volkswagen cars open source news?
Linux Mint 21.3 „Virginia“ – Upgrade from installed 21.2 also possible since yesterday
Another great Linux Gnews video, Michael. Thank you!
