They're making changes to where if you have your transactions set to private it will only say "PWP*Privacy.com" on your bank statements. Say goodbye to "NSA Giftshop". Sad day

What's everyones opinion of the two? I enjoy KDE Plasma and want to use an Ubuntu based system but don't have any experience with these two distros.

I just changed from MinUI to OnionOS on my Miyoo Mini+ to try more forms of emulation such as Arcade. I specifically want to play Bosconian. I got it running via the core "MAME 2003-Plus" using two different ROMsets, "bosco" and "boscomd" from the Archive.org "MAME 2003-Plus Reference Full Non-Merged ROMsets" page.

However, I'm having the same issue with both being "Warning: audo sample(s) not found".

Did I happen to pick two bad ROMsets or is there some larger issue I'm having? Is this a common issue that people know how to fix?

Is there a reputable retailer of retro handhelds that's in the USA? I would like to support local USA businesses and have quicker shipping.

I just recently learned about the website CalTopo and how you can create maps to print out. It's exciting to me because I can create maps based on UTM instead of Lat Long. I have been looking for a solution for a while and am glad to have found this. You can change the scale, the map type, overlays, and more. I had a local store print one on tear and water resistant paper too.

Just wanted to share with the community.

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a camera still being produced similar to the Canon G1X MkIII. I've been using a 5D MkIII for years but want something smaller for backpacking that still packs a great quality sensor, glass, and full featured manual mode with RAW format. It doesn't have to be Canon either. Thanks

Edit: probably an APS-C size sensor or larger

I'm adding a business that is primarily for surfing and also has some skateboard accessories. Can I use multiple tags to designate this?

"shop=surf;skate"

Would that work? On the OSM wiki it says under cuisine you can use multiple tags but I don't see anything saying if it's proper to do that with a key for shop.

What's the most modern SMS app available? It can be only on Github too as I use Obtanium. I'm hoping for something with rounded corners and a more Apple-esc appearance.

I'm new to self hosting and just got CasaOS setup following up to part two of Tech DB's guide. The SMB works on my Linux computer, I can create documents, etc. However I'm having trouble accessing it on my Android phone. I'm using Material Files, Search for SMB shares, and find "CASAOS" but it's under a different IP address as the server. Then when I click on it, it prefills some of the lines such as "Hostname: CASAOS" and "Port: 445". I have added my login info as either my CasaOS login and SSH login but both don't work and I've changed the port to 80 as that's CasaOS default but every combination I try fails with "java8... UnknownHostConnection... and more" Any ideas?

I setup a Dell Inspiron 2-in-1 for my Dad with Fedora 40 Kinoite. He wants a basic stylus but I don't know anything about them. All the info I can find on the product page is saying that you can use an "active pen." What am I looking for in a stylus to let me know if it'll work? The Dell and Wacom stylus' say they're for Windows. Do these stylus' need software to work and thus be stuck only working on Windows? Do they actually work on a firmware level? If you know of any that work I'm down for suggestions too.

Hey everyone, I wanted to give my feedback with Linux on a new CoPilot laptop.

I just got a new generation Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 Touch laptop (Model: i7445-7326BLU-PUS, SKU: 6576720). It has the new AMD 8840HS and is a new Windows CoPilot branded laptop (with key unfortunately).

I tried booting and logging into Windows once for the heck of it and here's what happened. It wouldn't let me log in without joining an internet network first. So I successfully give it my guest network credentials. It said connected and secured. Then I hit next, next, etc. and it restarts and then would update, still prior to me being able to login. However it restarts and says oops the internet had an issue and please reconnect WiFi. It sends me back to the WiFi credential page to login again but it auto connects as my credentials were correct. So I hit next and it gives me the same problem again.

I then say screw it and proceed to install Linux.

I proceed to install Fedora Kinoite 40 via USB and have absolutely zero issues. It works flawlessly with every feature including the fingerprint scanner and when flipping the laptop keyboard over into tablet mode it even auto disables the keyboard and touchpad but leaves the touchscreen working! The only thing that doesn't seem to work is the CoPilot key. When pressed it doesn't do anything. I tried assigning it as a shortcut key for Konsole where it registers as "Meta" and gets created as "Shift+Meta" but it doesn't actually work still. I didn't change a single thing in BIOS, Secure Boot is still enabled, and I don't see any code displayed during boot or shutdown. Besides the CoPilot key being useless I couldn't be happier with how it all turned out and proved to be better than Windows yet again.

Edit: I played around some more with the CoPilot key. Like I said the shortcuts default to "Shift+Meta" if only pressing the CoPilot (Meta) key. That won't launch anything. However if you add another key into the mix it will work. I created "Shift+K+Meta" to launch Kcalc and it worked, kinda. I may have to either press the combo multiple times or press and hold it for a few milliseconds longer than a normal key press and then it launches the program, but not once, it opens Kcalc multiple times all at once and the amount of times it opens seems random.

I'm relatively new to Fedora and Plasma and trying to understand it better. I see in the wallpaper selection that some of them have what looks to be a light and dark version. I'm using Kinoite and have one of these wallpapers chosen but do not ever see it change. Is this a bug? Should it change? On a similar but different note I swear I saw it change on Bazzite with Plasma when I tried that at someone's house.
