Oh beautiful #COSMIC, how weird it was to try your 7th alpha, by nuking and paving the #Fedora Workstation #distribution, only to replace it with Fedora Atomic Cosmic.

Again, I'm using #BTRFS with subvolumes. The "@" subvolume being recreated for probably the 7th time, effectively just deleting the old volume and making a new one - sort of releasing all the storage space of the original.

The "@home" subvolume has been there for a while - even retaining the COSMIC settings from #NixOS.

Feel it All

20th track in the Stand Alone Singles series. I’ve fought long and hard to keep finding the joy in music. Sometimes this means making nothing at all. Sometimes inspiration strikes. It took me a long time to get here, but I’m here now. It’s the new me, much like the old me but newer.

Everything done by me on this one.

Lilbits: Recall, AI-enhanced search, and Click to Do are rolling out for Copilot+ PCs, Microsoft also preview support for swearing while using voice typing

Microsoft’s Copilot+ PC platform was predicated on the idea that Windows computers with processors that have newfangled neural processing units would be able to do all sorts of nifty things with AI. But the most impressive features that Microsoft promised have been slow to arrive… after the company faced backlash over the potential privacy and security implications.

I took the #COSMIC #Fedora Spin for a test drive on a VM. I've been using it as my daily driver for a few weeks and it's pretty feature complete. No crashes. I can change the wallpaper and toggle dark mode. I can install flatpaks and software from the repos. QT apps load and play well with the UI. I can tile windows and move them around intuitively. I already like it better than the default #Ubuntu experience. Excited to see the beta release features.
