You’re welcome!
Yes they’re cheap but I’ve never had any failure and the few times I had to contact their support they were quite efficient.
They are established in my city and they are a really well respected name.
They are even heating buildings with their datacenters.
I put everything on kDrive and once a year I do an external backup on a hard drive.
For password management, I rely on Proton Pass though. It’s also a company from my country but their reputation is only into the tech world and not with normies.
I use Infomaniak and I’m really happy with them even if everything isn’t perfect.
Calendar: nothing to say
Email: nothing to say
Photos: It could be better as for now it’s just about backing up your pictures but you can’t do much else since your pictures aren’t analyzed for faces, objects, … Still it’s what I need and my pictures are safe
Applications: on iOS the application is fine and on Linux too. The only problem is that I have to recreate all my synchronisations after every updates since it’s an appimage and not a flatpak. So I only update it once a year..
I’d really recommend them as they are always improving stuff and their service is way better and cheaper than when I started using them.
It might be your reality but it’s clearly not mine.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve rewatched Alien or Terminator.
So yes it’s true that I’m using Netflix more than my DVD’s, but I’ll watch a lot of these movies again for sure.
Also, despite the low resolution, DVD’s now have some kind of charm in their picture quality and it’s perfectly good enough for me.
But, of course, someone who doesn’t enjoy cinema the way I do shouldn’t be going through such a hassle.
Yeah I wouldn’t mind an Electric Golf R, but then as an estate to run it alongside my (dream) MX-5.
For now I’ll hold on to my 2018 Seat Leon Cupra ST.
I loved it but I ain’t buying it a second time at more than 10$!
Interesting. I didn’t know about it.
It’s clever, but they should have used this money to make discs more durable instead😇
I’ve found my happiness with MakeMKV for the DVD’s at least.
I’ll see how I’ll proceed with the Blurays in the future, but I don’t have any other Bluray player except my Playstation 3-4-5 for now.
I guess I'll use Make MKV Beta as it seems to work well and VLC can open the MKV files. Thanks for your help!
But then would I be able to read them on any computer without burning them?
Hi everyone,
I have a finely tuned Fedora 40 image that I cloned using Clonezilla (see: https://sh.itjust.works/post/25762756)
I wanted to deploy it on my old Acer Aspire 5737z but it won’t boot. It’s just displaying a — on a black screen for hours.
I’m not so knowledgeable but I guess it means I would have to reinstall the GRUB or whatever.
I’ve booted into my Fedora Live USB and tried the lsblk command people were talking about on the web (I don’t understand the terminal). Here's the result.
I think the SDA disk is the one I would like to boot from.
Can anyone help me understand what I have to do 😇🙏
Hi everyone!
A few days ago, I had a problem while trying to run KDE and Gnome as DE on Fedora 40. That problem was solved (see crosspost), but now, I can't update Fedora anymore as it says "the transaction did not complete" and I can't install or uninstall anything as it says I don't have space on my disk (which is not true).
Does anyone have an idea what to do?
Edit: apparently dnf clean and dnf clean all solved the problem, so thank you everyone as I was kind of panicking when I thought about all the work involved into having my perfect install again.

Hi everyone!
Today I tried to install KDE alongside Gnome to give it a try on Fedora on something else than a virtual machine.
For a reason I can't understand, the terminal couldn't finish the installation of KDE as something failed. Despite all of this, all the KDE apps were installed and Plasma is appearing as an option on the login screen under Gnome and Gnome Classic. Still I couldn't launch KDE plasma and nothing was happening after typing my login.
I took it as a sign that KDE isn't for me, especially because I'm 99% happy with Gnome.
So I removed KDE via the terminal and the remaining apps via the software center. Sadly, there is one app called "Centre de bienvenue" or "Welcome center" from KDE that I can't remove. Nothing is happening when I try removing it.
I tried removing it via the terminal, but when I type "dnf list installed" I can't find it as there are too many packages. Could anyone help me?
I also tried « dnf list installed » with the words « welcome », « bienvenue », « kde » and « plasma ».
Hi everyone!
I love Thunderbird and I'm really happy with it.
It's the flatpak version and, sadly, it doesn't allow me to open attachments. When I click on the file, it brings me to a screen where it proposes to use the system handler to open the file and then nothing happens.
Apparently, this is a common issue related to flatpak and its permissions, so I tried to circumvent it by trying to open documents inside Thunderbird (as I remember Thunderbird being able to open PDFs) but it didn't work as it's only telling me that Firefox is already running.
Does anyone know a workaround as for now it forces me to save documents before being able to open them?
Edit: it was solved by switching to the official Flatpak and not the Fedora provided one

I haven’t experienced anything weird when I used the old MacBook with Fedora 42 today.
It might be on your side.
Is it with every app?
