After months of testing, weeks of writing, here is finally my new full Linux install guide: "Interim Install Guide: KDE Neon User Edition for a professional digital painter workstation": https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1145/interim-install-guide-kde-neon-user-edition-for-a-professional-digital-painter-workstation
Everything about Drawing Tablet, Color Management and Calibration/Profiling on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and all to survive the packaging mess with eg. built-in tutorial to revert version of Flatpak, scripts to beta-test Krita, and more!
The most complete article I ever published!
Facho, no te quejes de los "moros" que viven en España.
La presencia multisecular del Islam la tienes en tu boca cada vez que usas la jota.
Incluso cuando crees que les insultas diciendo "jamón", ya estás paladeando su legado histórico en tu boquita de piñón.
Lo mismo para cuando usas en tu cotidianidad palabras como "alcohol", "azúcar", "alcalde", "almohada", "berenjena". La huella árabe del español tiene más de 4.000 palabras. Hay que ir con cuidado.
Para combatirlo, mejor no hables. Cierra ya la boca. No sea que otros fachos te quieran expulsar del país donde naciste por usar palabras de origen árabe en tu vida diaria.
Europe imported a record amount of fossil gas in 2025. Trump's US now supplies 58% of the EU's #LNG (source: ACER).
Europe is handing its energy supply to Trump.
Fossil gas means dependency. Renewables mean security.

I updated monday to Ubuntu 26.04.
The audio in some of my browsers is totally broken; no audio at all. It worked nicely before the update.
Browsers affected (no audio at all): Vivaldi, Vivaldi (snapshot), Ungoogled Chromium
Browsers not affected (audio still works right): Firefox, Gnome Web, Chrome, Chromium, Tor Browser
It doesn't seem to be a packaging issue, since Chromium works in Snap and Flatpak. On the other hand, Ungoogled Chromium is a Flatpak and it doesn't work (no audio).
The original Bourne shell was written in a *very* strange style of C, which shows that even in 1979, some of the original Unix greats disdained C's famed terseness & wanted _keywords_ instead of punctuation marks.
TIL it has a name: it's known as "Bournegol".
Al final no me pude aguantar y me he actualizado.
Es la peor actualización de Ubuntu en años.
Motivos:
- La ruleta de espera en el arranque es horrenda. El mismo diseño aparece en el fondo de escritorio por defecto. Al menos esto último es fácil de arreglar; lo he cambiado por uno de los alternativos. Primera vez que cambio el fondo de escritorio en ni sé los años.
- Los nuevos iconos en el gestor de archivos son bastante feos; eran mucho mejores los anteriores. Supongo que me iré acostumbrando, pero son cantosísimos.
- Han movido todas las unidades externas de /media/ a /run/media/, quién sabe porqué. Ando ahora teniendo que cambiar rutas en todas las aplicaciones que hacen referencia a mi disco externo. En fin. Menos mal que no son muchas ni son cosas muy importantes.
Sí, ya sé que comparado con los destrozos que hacen otros SOs cuando te actualizas no es gran cosa, pero estoy acostumbrado a que las actualizaciones sean 100% indoloras.
Ahora tiene una sección de Bienestar en las opciones, estilo Android, con estadísticas, recordatorios para que no te quedes mirando mucho la pantalla, etc. No creo que lo vaya a usar, pero tampoco me parece mal que exista.
Por lo demás, todo perfecto.
We already produce enough for everyone on our planet to have a civilised quality of life. We only need 30% of Global productivity, Global Energy production, and Global GDP:

And those figures are based on the data fropm September, 2024, before the new Chinese and EU solar farms came online, and before the new automated factories came online in China. The new percentages will be a smaller slice of the overall amounts.
We already have enough Global GDP, Global Energy Production, and Global Resource Production, to produce enough for all 8 billion people on our planet. :D
We do NOT have enough for all of the billionaires...
We're running a big fundraiser for @osnews, in honour of my 21 year tenure and 20000th post! Since my wife can barely work due to health issues (caused by her work, ugh), my family has to rely on my income much more heavily. And that means OSNews donations.
We've also got a bunch of fun incentives!

To celebrate my 21 years and 20000 posts as OSNews' managing editor, it's time for a massive fundraiser: a euro for every story I've posted over the past 21 years. Because OSNews is ad-free and independent, I rely entirely on your donations and support for my income and OSNews' continued survival. Yo
@pes_maravilla Que además, tampoco entiendo una cosa. "Voy a tener un hijo", al menos significaría "Voy a gastar más dinero en alguien durante bastante tiempo", pero "Me voy a casar" es "Voy a convivir con otra persona, que seguramente tenga su sueldo, nos vamos a apoyar mutuamente, y nuestros gastos en absoluto se van a doblar". Es razón para bajarle el sueldo, no subírselo.
Me bajé del pájaro y me subí al mastodonte. Pasé de la #ciencia al desarrollo de software, sobre todo #web.
I got down from the bird and jumped onto the mastodon. Went from #science to software development, mostly #webdev.
