Has anyone ever found a job via linkedin? I got the impression that the jobs there are fake and used to harvest CV data or something (particularly those quick apply ones)

Istanbul in May, but with everything going on there now it seems like a poor choice!

Amazing to think that they criticised "freedom of speech" in Europe

Memories (1995) is a brilliant Japanese animated anthology film produced by Katsuhiro Otomo, consisting of three distinct science fiction stories. The first segment, "Magnetic Rose" (彼女の想いで, Kanojo no Omoide), is particularly outstanding and bears similarities to what Netflix's Love, Death & Robots would later become.

Of all the distros to base it on, why would they choose fedora?

Here in Ireland I got a meagre 2 weeks (but took an additional 2 weeks unpaid!)

 

Hi all, Dublin resident here, trying to figure out some data related to car pollution. I stumbled across this google study: https://insights.sustainability.google/labs/airquality?hl=en-US which purports to map out the air pollution in a few cities in great detail (hyperlocal, street-by-street, air quality data). Remarkably, Dublin seems to come out on top. This is flabbergasting to me, a resident of this car riddled city. I am especially surprised that the average Nitrogen Dioxide levels in Dublin seems to be about half that of Amsterdam (in my mind, a cycling utopia). What am I missing here? I can see that the data from Amsterdam is pre-pandemic and the Dublin data is post-pandemic. Is that the major difference? I can also see the Amsterdam data seems to contain a ring road (or two) whereas the Dublin data is missing the M50. To be honest, I am surprised that the Dutch levels are high at all (even in 2019) , I found some info on the modal share of Amsterdam from 2018 that suggested only 20% use private cars with the rest cycling/walking or using public transport (https://www2.deloitte.com/content/dam/insights/us/articles/4331_Deloitte-City-Mobility-Index/city-mobility-index_AMSTERDAM_FINAL.pdf). Any insights welcome!

 

I recently opted to move from XFCE to KDE Plasma after hearing so many good things about the KDE desktop environment. While I like the desktop interface/experience a lot more on KDE, there is one glaring issue... I can’t remote into it.

It should be noted that I use DWService.net as my remote desktop solution while out and about, and honestly it works flawlessly on other distros. I am also running on a mini computer in a headless configuration.

When I connect remotely, I am presented with the login screen with no issues, I can type in my password and submit that like any other time, however when it is supposed to present the desktop, it’s just a black screen.

I’ve worked around the issue temporarily by attaching a monitor to the HDMI-1 slot, but that defeats the purpose on how I want to use it. There was a similar issue with the XFCE environment, and the solution was adding a virtual HDMI-0 ‘display’, designate the resolution size, and carry on.

I’ve done a lot of internet searching so far, and nothing that I’ve read and tried has helped.

Is there a similar solution for KDE that I can implement and disconnect the monitor again?

 

Does it make a difference which one I use? I am using an old phone (~5 years old). Currently using liftoff! and connect. Feel like my phone is dying a lot quicker since I switched from using infinity for reddit a month or so ago
