Fedora 33 released with lots of improvements to the Linux desktop
28 Oct 2020 at 12:23 am UTC

I (usually) love fedora, and I love the changes introduced in 33. But the post, and comments so far, seem to miss the most important and controversial changes this iteration includes (for me); systemd-resolved as a default dns daemon.

For other complaints; I'm still waiting on docker fixing cgroup2 or having podman-compose on a production level capability.

Quoting: Perkeleen_VittupääI like the 4th one.
Heresy!

P.S: I like the 3rd one, also a heretic for the purists I guess :D

AMD reveals Zen 3 and the Ryzen 5000 series - out November 5
9 Oct 2020 at 8:22 am UTC

I have a 2600 + Radeon 5700. Considering the games I play, I will be waiting for AM5, Zen 4 and whatever GPU is out in a year/couple of years*

* Except Baldur's Gate 3 and Cyberpunk think otherwise :grin:

Dell announce new XPS 13 laptop models, will support moving from Windows to Ubuntu
29 Sep 2020 at 9:21 am UTC Likes: 1

I use an XPS 13, originally with Windows, at work. Performance is nice, but the screen is horrible, flickering constantly -a lot of garbage when unplugged- and the keys and feel aren't of my like. I'm even considering returning the laptop to my employer and get one that I like for myself and use it for work.

Microsoft Edge comes to Linux in October as a preview

Quoting: peta77office 365 works without any problems with firefox on linux... we have it at work and i didn't have any problems yet (ok, i still use thunderbird and libreoffice most of the time)...
Not all the options in the O365 apps are available on the web version though.

Quoting: Kimyrielle
Quoting: x_wingWake me up when they release office.
Unlikely. MS wants everybody to use Office 365 anyway, and is very likely to make local versions less and less desirable over time, until the elbowed everybody into their cloud. The last thing they're likely going to do is add new platforms to stand-alone office.
Not necessarily. Office 365 can also be self-hosted, and even included with Nextcloud. Granted, this is the backend service for their cloud but I can easily imagine a flatpak/snap/docker version of O365 might be released for Linux.

Microsoft Edge comes to Linux in October as a preview
22 Sep 2020 at 4:27 pm UTC

Most likely though, since they (like a lot of others) target Ubuntu directly, they might mean the Snap Store.
If the release it's anything similar to PowerShell, it will mostly be available for apt, zypper, yum, etc via repos too.

Not interested in Edge though.
