Plasma 6.4 is out and it's' more welcoming than ever!

https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.4.0/

Check out the tweaked tiling that lets you have different layouts for every virtual desktop; the overhauled Spectacle that makes capturing your desktop faster; how KRunner now understands color; and in general the literally dozens of other fixes and features that make Plasma friendlier and easier to use.

A general view of Plasma 6.4 with several applications open, as well as the launch menu. The launch menu shows you which new apps you have installed with a "New" flair.

@psybernaut that's a very quality look build, nice!

@rottedmood Pequods Pizza shoutout! #soGood

@fedops as much as I don't like the exploitation adjacent Uber tactics, their mobile website which can do account setup, driver and your own tracking with an active map all in a browser proves pretty much anything bar a few exceptions (maybe some hardware specific?) can and should be done this way.

Yes. Why would a company all but force you to use their shitty app when a website should do... #innocentLooks #maxFineTime https://www.zeropartydata.es/p/localhost-tracking-explained-it-could

@psybernaut in various experiments it seems to effect it! But antennas are all witchcraft so really I've no clue...

@psybernaut yeah had a lad put a chimney liner in ours... had to go inside... up standing on the chimney itself... just nope.

@psybernaut Behold!

@psybernaut hahaha ahhhh dear... so I have a 60cm custom one but I need to find a lad to stick it on my chimney because no, I'm not going up there! So right now out of several bought antennas mine is crappy we wire one snipped to the correct length, sitting on a large syrafoam cold water tank lid I covered in tinfoil. Shockingly I get over 200, I did get to 211nm Monday I think

@psybernaut I'm on the X and the circled Mourne Mountains block a massive big V shape in my reception, same to the south with the Wicklow mountains...

@psybernaut Love it, have you it on the roof? Hmmm I'd have thought you might get a bit farther than that until I saw you were up there, damn mountains! 🙂

@padraic @joeress not had much time to try it yet... want to make sure it also isn't dodgy 🙂

@padraic @joeress No no, I have it already as one of mine, it's only for me, they left, they can't have it #cartmanNaNaNaNaSounds

A smiling protester holds a large illustrated sign at a public demonstration in a city square surrounded by tall buildings. The sign features a black-and-white drawing of a man in a suit and hat pointing outward, with bold text that reads: “THEY BLAME IMMIGRANTS SO YOU WON’T BLAME BILLIONAIRES.” The style of the sign resembles vintage political posters. A crowd of fellow demonstrators is visible behind metal barricades in the background.

The "Written using Claude" section of the readme at https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-oauth-provider/

CVE-2025-4143 description with the highlighted text "Readers who are familiar with OAuth may recognize that failing to check redirect URIs against the allowed list is a well-known, basic mistake, covered extensively in the RFC and elsewhere. The author of this library would like everyone to know that he was, in fact, well-aware of this requirement, thought about it a lot while designing the library, and then, somehow, forgot to actually make sure the check was in the code. That is, it's not that he didn't know what he was doing, it's that he knew what he was doing but flubbed it."

@rottedmood Sorry/Not_Sorry :-) Ah can't wait... trek to other side of the city on a Wed... it's gonna be a bit of a mental one, Dublin is a bit arse in the transport department at the best of times...
