Looks like some people in Justice Department do not value their life. Let's see how long it will take for Glenn Leon to meet up with Joshua Dean and John Barnett.

Red Hat 5.1 CD from a magazine. Ended up at fedora and couldn't be happier.

I knew something was off, I never really could watch his channel for some reason. This is one more hint that my intuition wasn't wrong.

What would you change about your favorite Linux distribution? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

You have two options to switch to systemd-boot on Fedora:

Use inst.sdboot as kernel parameter while installing Fedora, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/cleanup_systemd_install

Or use conversation scripts systemd-boot-conversion provided by Sebastiaan Franken

I used the script for two of my installations without any issues: systemd-boot-install-fedora-no-secureboot.sh

Battle.net update breaks Wine/Proton compatibility (lemm.ee)

New Battle.net update Version 14542 breaks Linux compatibility with Wine/Proton via Lutris or Steam and will only display a gray screen.

Workaround is to delete the update folder Battle.2.net.14542 under $wine_root$/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Battle.net/ and then start the client again.

Update workaround: Set WINE_SIMULATE_WRITECOPY=1 environment variable in Lutris

LineageOS is currently installed on 1.5 million Android devices in c/android@lemmy.world

If we could fix the issue with non working Google Wallet/Google Pay, that would be great.

But it is also worrying that there there seems to be only Apple and Google Pay in Europe - no alternative solution for wireless paying.

Other than that, Lineage OS on my 9T feels great. Battery life got almost doubled and it feels great to use a device with all current security patched installed. Next step would be to use a completely degoogled version with only FOSS software installed - just for some app there are no real alternatives available: Banking app, Fitness watch app, Carsharing app etc

Could this be any more sad? :(

The accusation by Bryan is out there, its detailed and looks profounded - there is no response from SUSE anywhere and this seems to follow the described pattern in the accusation of not talking about it. So as of now the public opinion is that the accusation was not withdrawn and is still standing. Not talking about it won't make it go away for anyone.
