Shout out to logitech, the G502 Hero wireless I'm using doesn't install or start anything on it's own. What a low fucking bar to look at.

You mean the feature set in the grub config? Their guide on setting up your system to get all the features is quite easy to do and linked on their git lab page

He means that his laptop has a dedicated GPU from AMD and his CPU with iGPU is also made by AMD

Thank you for the hint, but disabling the unneeded user just caused the welcome screen to show up again. I just reinstalled it now.

Use the default mesa drivers and use corectrl. Depending on the version of mint you're using, you might need to install the appropriate ppas (just google them, you'll find them)

The number of IPs hitting their software repos can be a decent way of estimating active users. Also, ISO downloads and so on.

Hi everybody, I recently reinstalled ubuntu 23.04 on my laptop. I had a backup of my old home and copied that into my new home after installation, installed updates and rebooted. Sadly, I forgot to make myself the owner of those files before rebooting. Instead of the login screen where you would normally enter your password, It showed me a welcome screen where I had to create a new user. I did that, then fixed my earlier mistake, logged in as my real user and ran userdel to get rid of the account I had to create. However, now it always shows me this welcome screen and I always have to create a new user. If I go through that and log out, I can log in with my real user after clicking on "not listed?" on the login screen. I could just reinstall again, but is there a way to fix this?

Wayland on AMD is amazing

Powershell as admin then type set-service wuauserv -startuptype manual; stop-service wuauserv

This will disable the windows update service. If you do want to run updates again (and you should do that regularly), just type start-service wuauserv and use the windows update page in settings.

Linux is still way better though.

Bro, most people don't even care about their own privacy and keep using edge/chrome in windows. Some lemmy users care about Eich's beliefs, like you, but most people don't.

Use nala instead of apt, it's mostly a different frontend that looks way nicer, but also has vast improvements such as simultaneous downloads and a controllable history

It's (rightfully) currently illegal, but that doesn't stop people. Keep it illegal, increase punishment drastically, make AI-created material a grey area.

Occasionally my laptop will just loose all wifi connectivity. Running dmesg at those moments provides this output: [ 1588.714014] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Error sending REMOVE_STA: enqueue_hcmd failed: -5 [ 1588.714017] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Failed to remove station.

and running sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi && sudo modprobe iwlwifi results in this:

[ 1588.961411] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Failed sending remove station [ 1597.465190] Intel(R) Wireless WiFi driver for Linux [ 1597.465235] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) [ 1597.465342] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: HW_REV=0xFFFFFFFF, PCI issues?

I'm unsure on what this means and how to procede. Any advice?

I have a partition on a remote computer that I mount to my laptop via sshfs. That partition serves as network storage and thus has a lot of pictures and videos on it. But it does not have thumbnails for those. I have installed ffmpegthumbnailer, but that did not fix it. I'm on Ubuntu 23.04. Any ideas?
