KDE

Do i do it, idk if it looks better or worse [Yes i also felt like changing the eyelashes]

[Yes im using Ibis Paint X, i don't have any good device suitable for Krita since I'm on a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 😭]

Kross was a scripting framework dropped in KDE Frameworks 6 with no announcement that I could find. I'm trying to find a reason to add to Wikipedia.

Calligra is the office and graphics suite developed by KDE and is the successor to KOffice. With some traditional parts like Kexi and Plan having an independent release schedule, this release only contains the four following components: Calligra Words: Word Processor Calligra Sheets: Spreadsheet Application Calligra Stage: Presentation Application Karbon: Vector Graphics Editor The most significant updates are that Calligra has been fully transitioned to Qt6 and KF6, along with a major overhaul of its user interface.

STK is the main reason I started to draw Konqi, so uhh, this was the first drawing, with Katie featuring as Cheerleader.

What's everyones opinion of the two? I enjoy KDE Plasma and want to use an Ubuntu based system but don't have any experience with these two distros.

9th graders learn Linux for the environment!

Last week in #Hannover, #KDEEco joined Akademie der Spiele, an event for 200+ students with 20+ career/cultural workshops.

Students salvaged dozens of computers with #OpenSource #FreeSoftware.

They learned about the #environmental costs of #eWaste and device production.

They presented their work to peers and teachers!

Some even played games🚀

We're proud of our students - congrats for all you achieved in only 5 days!

I'm not sure if this is related to Night Light (which I don't have enabled) or even just the monitors dimming in power settings, but I constantly have to go and bring my brightness back up from 20% when I sit down at my computer in the AM.

I have disabled Sleep as well, and the only thing left is the regular Energy Saving features of dimming after X minutes and Turn Off Monitors after X minutes, but I've set both of those to short timeouts and when it comes back, it's at 100%.

Edit: For some reason I was on X11. I've switched to Wayland and will see if that changes anything.

Any ideas what's causing this?

An interpretation of what Konqi's current design might look like [Since imo theres not been a concrete layout and its for a character design which i absolutely love] [No this isnt perfect lol]

In Folder view mode of desktop if I place a folder on the desktop, it can overlap any icons on there already rather than refusing to sit in occupied areas. Is it the desired behavior or am I missing something?

For eg. I installed Blur-glassy theme today to check with all options selected in my Fedora 40 installation. Still I needed to install the blur option separately and colors too. After everything still Dolphin and Discover do not look anything like the picture shown.

I have seen this while trying out many themes. They either partially deploy or sometimes not.

Is it because they were built for KDE 5 and this is 6 or something?

This week in KDE: System Settings modernization and Wayland color management

Pretty much the title. I have been trying to pinpoint what's causing it and the proper logs, but the only thing in common so far in all times it has happened is firefox and another xwayland application are present.

logs show several errors, including this one - but how could I file a bug report, if I don't know how to reproduce it ?

Aug 15 17:09:37 hostname konsole[3721]: The cached device pixel ratio value was stale on window update. Please file a QTBUG which explains how to reproduce.

My Okular settings are messed up (menus are broken, details probably not important to describe).

I tried purging the package and reinstalling,
tried clearing okular files from "~/.config",
got no relevant output opening from terminal,
saw nothing in man page bout getting more feedback...?

What do?

I couldn't find anything on the man page about, like, a flag to get it to tell you what files it's reading when it starts up or anything like that?
(
the only output I get when I open it from the commandline is:

Unable to open QuickAnnotatingTools XML definition
kf.xmlgui: Shortcut for action "mainToolBar" "Show Toolbar" set with QAction::setShortcut()! Use KActionCollection::setDefaultShortcut(s) instead.

)
