It’s pretty uncommon. I’ve been using prerelease KDE for quite a while and rarely see any issues.
If it’s any consolation, Plasma 6 will recover from crashes like that.

I’d trust also the official Arch repo.
Yeah they’ve only rolled out a version of curl that broke the package manager a few times.
I may be a touch biased, but I feel like you might enjoy trying Gentoo one day, especially with the recent official binary package host.
Could you elaborate?
Fascinating take on Mongolian basket weaving! Though I’m not sure how it relates to the price of tea in China…
There absolutely was. Intel got smacked on the wrist for doing their benchmarks using ICC… you know, the compiler that builds code that detects that it’s not running on an Intel CPU and disables all optimisations and extended instruction sets (like say MMX/SSE).
You can never trust it for long term archival / to stay intact for a long period though.
It’s saying that incognito mode doesn’t prevent people on the web from tracking you, that’s all.
I.e. enabling incognito mode could still have an entity profile you, etc. like your ISP, government, or any corporation that you visit the website for.
This is a nothingburger.
Counter point: I don’t want an untraceable phone used as a detonator. There’s a reason that these things are linked to real-world identities.
supposedly you can grind off some plastic from the port to make it fit and it will still work.
You absolutely can do this, often slots for 1x or 4x slots come with open backs for this reason - it’s better than only wiring up that many lanes in a 16x slot IMO!
What gets me is the number of people who take a saw to a pci-e card instead of just opening the back of the slot up… :(
Backups. You want backups of your important data. You want multiple copies, and for one to be offline and offsite if it’s critical.
That’s about it. Tools won’t guarantee that you’ll catch a failing disk (or have time to migrate if you do) before it fails.
Huh, sounds like PRIME render offload with the serial numbers filed off.
IRC is fine, so are mailing lists; I use both, plus various git forges, to contribute to open source projects.
IRC is still going strong on OFTC and Libera.chat
I get that the younger folks like discord, but seriously it’s a proprietary mess that locks everything behind a wall and tries to extract payment from each and every user.
It may or may not work, unfortunately.
I successfully ran 2x32GB in a Dell XPS 15 that “didn’t support” it, because the larger DIMMs didn’t exist at the time it was designed and documentation was done up.
It’s not going to hurt to try, but if you have two DIMM slots it’s worth a shot; the slots are already wired up to address lines! Maybe try with one first?
Edit: the CPU specs say that it supports 64GB and only up to two memory channels. It’s looking pretty good on that end.
Here’s a point in favour:
You want a standard rack shelf, it’ll fit 3-4 SFF stacked sideways. You can 3D print some supports.
No idea if it’ll fit in a shallow rack.
I run Linux at work in a mostly MS shop.
You need to use Chrome/Chromium/Edge for the PWA to work; Firefox doesn’t work with it for now.
Just do that, load the PWA, say a 100 'Fuck M$'s, and move on with your life.
That space is designed for a SSD, which is half the thickness of that thing, typically.
I’m not sure why you’d go with a 2.5" piece of spinning rust in 2023 (the performance of those small spindles at 5400 or 7200 rpm isn’t great), but if it’s preventing you from closing the case I’d leave the panel off or relocate the drive.
If you insist on running it as-is I wouldn’t worry about the case panel putting pressure on the device, it’s not likely to damage the disk and the case panel is cosmetic.
It will make no difference to the performance of a VPN; nothing that those nodes are doing is IO bound.
What a hot take. I bet you’re real fun at parties.
