Fedora Core 2 (2004)

[fedora-official]

This job is so hard. I need to follow #fedora to keep up with current events and that means I have to suffer posts about a stupid hat. Could be worse though, at least I don't have to follow #ubuntu and see posts about a stupid distro

I got Fedora installed on my 2018 Mac Mini!!

It went mostly ok, but there were a few bumps along the way.

I used this guide in case anyone is interested. :)

My Favourite Gnome Extensions

Over the past few years I've found myself settling into gnome and I would like to introduce y'all to some of my favourite extensions.

1 - Gtile

Gtile is easily a must add to any Linux install with gnome, a highly customise-able shortcut to tile your windows onto a grid size of your choosing. An absolute must have for people with large/multiple monitors and a perfect extension for the power user in you. GitHub: https://github.com/gTile/gTile Gnome: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/28/gtile/

2 - Just Perfection

Just perfection is the tool for getting those slight tweaks you didn't know you needed out of gnome, from hiding parts of the system UI to simple behaviour changes its got at least one feature for you. I personally use the workspace wraparound while disabling the visibility of the activities button and workspace popup for a cleaner UX. GitLab: https://gitlab.gnome.org/jrahmatzadeh/just-perfection Gnome: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/3843/just-perfection/

3 - Dash to Dock

Dash to Dock is my preferred options in a sea of dash replacements, its simplicity and ease of use with excellent GTK theme compatibility and array of options won me over compared to the others GitHub: https://micheleg.github.io/dash-to-dock/development.html Gnome: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/307/dash-to-dock/

4 - Honourable Mentions

Here's the spot for all the extensions that are great but i don't think need a whole spot and a GIF (pronounced GIF of course) Caffeine Caffeine is an extension that goes on your toolbar, it adds a button to disable your screen from fading over time, excellent for when you need to keep something open. GitHub: https://github.com/eonpatapon/gnome-shell-extension-caffeine Gnome: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/517/caffeine/ Workspace indicator Another toolbar extension to display whatever workspace you're on at the time, a perfect pair with disabling the workspace popup in just perfection for a clean minimal alternative GitHub: https://github.com/tty2/horizontal-workspace-indicator Gnome: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/3952/workspace-indicator/ Launch new instance A great extension included by default with Ubuntu, ever have your browser open on one workspace and try to open it on another and it takes you back? this fixes that, you can now pretend to be productive on one workspace and open Tumblr on the other with ease ^w^ GitLab: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell-extensions Gnome: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/600/launch-new-instance/ Rounded Window Corners For my final extension I'm going to mention something not everyone needs but I use for the aesthetic. Does your GTK theme have rounded corners but some windows (I'm looking at you Firefox and gnome terminal) have sharp corners at the bottom? Fear no more, this extension gets rid of those pesky right angles with a wide array of settings to customise the angle, size and even border of those corners. With options to blacklist certain applications and even have custom settings for specific applications its a must have for the ricer in you.

In Linux, after changing a user's group memberships, those group changes don't always take effect immediately within their current session without logging out. This can lead to issues with permissions and access to resources. This page explains using the 'sg' and 'newgrp' commands to refresh a user's group membership in Linux without a complete logout and login.

Bluecurve icons from Red Hat Linux / Fedora Core

[fedora-official]

Logos are a bit too old school. I think Fedora needs a flag. I made a few sketches, tell me what you think, or share your ideas

Hey fellas, sorry for being quiet for a while, I was a bit embarrassed. I have been using Fedora KDE for the past while, with my windows partition still intact, but today I believe I shall delete it once and for all and in all honesty it's been great apart from a bit of a struggle with steam, and with deleting my windows partition I shall truly become a true lil Linux fucko

I'm really hoping Red Hat doesn't continue to be a garbage company so that I don't have to switch my laptop from using fedora but I'm not holding my breath either tbh.

Today's yak shaving consists of compiling Gentoo (prefix) so that I can get img2sixel so I can use Neofetch to test the new update to emacs-eat on my m1 macbook running Asahi fedora Linux
