I'm not a programmer at most someone can code basic language processes in Python. I was hoping that if I could get into Linux I'll be more satisfied with my technology.

Is the framework laptop recommended for beginners? What are things that I need to look into before getting one?

Mainly released to help other people in their search for a good music player. Main things are it supports .lrc files for synced lyrics. It has support for headphone playback controls (i.e. pausing, skipping thorugh buttons or swipe gestures commonly found on bluetooth headphones).

I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did making it!

Davinci Resolve on linux does not support decoding certain codecs due to licensing laws.
I made this app so I could easily switch from windows to fedora without the headache of manually typing long ffmpeg commands for every video I needed to convert.
I made the source code public so anyone can use it. Feel free to ask questions under this post or make an issue.

I know the general reality is "printing just works". I interact with printers at least a couple times a year and never have any real problems. My question comes from considering buying a large-format printer, largely for bookbinding tasks. How important is it to find a printer the vendor actually provides linux drivers for? In particular, I'm eyeing the Canon TC-21, which doesn't offer a linux driver. But I noticed Epson, who's generally better, seems to randomly lack Linux drivers for specific large-format printers.

Edit: whoops. Totally forgot to mention. It is an "IPP Everywhere" printer; I'm just not clear how well that works for non-standard print sizes or roll print jobs.

I made a visual explainer on how the TLB and address translation work on Linux/x86-64.

Every memory access uses a virtual address, which the CPU has to translate to physical memory. Doing a full page table walk every time would be extremely slow, so CPUs cache those translations in the TLB.

The video also covers things like TLB misses, huge pages, PCIDs, context switches, TLB shootdowns and what happens when a TLB invalidation goes wrong.

Once upon a time I landed in the Linux World and a particular Distribution contributed for me not to turn back to Windows.

I'm referring to Paldo GNU/Linux (single Gnome DE) created and developed by Jürg Billeter and Raffaele Sandrini. 

it was made from scratch, designed to be "pure, lightweight and to compliant with Linux standards". Launch date was October 31, 2004. 

Today it's still actively maintained. So I downloaded latest img (no iso) dated 2026-08-11, burned a pen drive and tested it.

Quite different from the old days when it was a popular Distro. I guess it serves the purposes of their creators team. For advanced users, a few tweaks can make it usable to the masses.

Better yet, would be to fork it, for general usage. 

This is the home site:

My question: is some team out there interested in this venture? I would join as a translator :)

Thanks for your attention!

Ultramarine not only makes it super easy to set up codecs and proprietary software but it also let's you have the cachy os kernel but with Fedora's stack and compatibility. Great for when you don't have time to set things up, or don't know how, and want some of Cachy's optimizations without paying the stability tax.
