tldr: Install plasma-x11-session if you are still using x11


Who remembers Freesco?


My phone my data. I’m not sure if factory reset deletes all data.

KDE Plasma 5.27.5, color selector, from… Windows 95 era?

Interesting,
non-scientific speed test:
kernel 6.1.0-37-amd64:
$ time for i in $(seq 1 100000); do cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid > /dev/null; done
real 3m53,388s
user 1m37,366s
sys 2m13,847s
$ for i in $(seq 1 100000); do cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid ; done | wc -l
100000
vs. uuid 1.6.2-1.5+b11:
$ time for i in $(seq 1 100000); do uuid -v4 > /dev/null; done
real 4m44,854s
user 1m37,867s
sys 3m4,414s
$ for i in $(seq 1 100000); do uuid -v4 ; done | wc -l
100000
EDIT: I’m blind (wrong result).


Try tig, unbelievable.
