We canβt afford not to have GNOME when Big Tech already has so much influence on our lives.
If you can afford it, give them the financial force to build systems that work for all of us.
We had to start charging the electric car from the grid this week due to bad weather and shorter days, but between this week and mid-April, when we got the car, we charged it exclusively from solar power. Six months and six thousand kilometers. Not bad.

My next few videos are going to have to be shorter and more straightforward or I'm going to lose my mind. π
It's up on Nebula first for now:

Red Hat Engineer Working On DRM Panic Support For AMDGPU Driver
Red Hat engineer Jocelyn Falempe has been working to sort out DRM Panic support for the AMDGPU driver. The DRM Panic infrastructure is useful since it's what allows presenting a panic screen, a.k.a. a "Blue Screen of Death" type experience when running into major kernel problems.
