I use FLAC for long-term storage, 256kbps Ogg when transcoding for mobile devices.

Opus is the best lossy codec in terms of efficiency, but many devices/apps don't properly support it.

Why are we giving this odious little twerp the oxygen of publicity?

Saw the new movie today. It's not as full of CGI as the trailer makes it look, but, granted, it's more noticeable than it was in Fury Road. There are still some great practical stunts in it, though, it was still an enjoyable experience. 75% as good as FR, for me at least.

And that's an X with a Chinese pronunciation, no doubt.

I've personally had issues with Fedora's version updates - once with Fedora and another with Nobara (which is Fedora based). In both cases, dependency conflicts broke the update and they were a considerable pain to fix. It was enough for me to switch to a rolling release distro and never look back.

Each to their own.

Gnome with GTK4 + adw-gtk3 looks far cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing than Plasma + Breeze, IMO.

Gnome lets you do this on the primary display, but afaik it's not possible on the secondary/tertiary displays.

Out of interest, hsve you heard/read much about VanillaOS and their AB partition system, and if so what do you make of that compared to Fedora Atomic?

Online Accounts only supports Outlook mail at the moment, so it's not a Onedriver replacement yet.

I had the same issue and was unable to find a solution.

I'd say switch to gnome-boxes or virt-managerif possible - they don't have this issue with Wayland and perform better than VMWare / Virtual Box anyway.

The installation is the easy part; first I have to back up all my configs. It's the media machine in the living room, though, so it's not super urgent.

Agreed. I was enthusiastic about Nobara all the way up until I had to do a version upgrade. If I had to start from scratch now, I'd go with Bazzite.
