It would be nice if Nvidia could fix the "*ERROR* [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000b00] Attempt to wait on invalid sync FD: -24" bug that freezes the Plasma panel.
#PlasmaDesktop
Did Plasma 6.5.3 or another recent version change the Breeze context menu items so they're 1.5x size or something? I would like to change it back but didn't find a setting for it and it's not mentioned in the changelogs.
Just realized that, according to this thread, Diamond version 2.0.3 was the last version of the Plasma 4 Diamond theme, and that version is what I have archived. If you click the link to go to the KDE Store, it returns a 404.

idk what happened but i just updated my system, which took a pretty long while (building qt something or wtv), but once i got in.. the #kde #plasmadesktop seems to have regressed a bit? lol. the obvious ones being the dock, for wtv reason, has jagged edges now in its rounded corners - and it's also pretty buggy where it'd leave some weird extra width that overlaps (idk how to explain it but it's janky). as usual with these plasma panel/dock jankiness, it 'goes away' by moving your cursor to it. don't dig the colours on my dock/panels either, but that might have to do with my applied themes, perhaps needing an update.
Como llevo varias semanas aprovechando el plasmoide Day/Night Switcher y los viernes por la noche no suelo estar frente a mi laptop, tenÃa rato de no mostrar mi escritorio en tonos oscuros.
En cada Actividad de Plasma tengo un par de fotografÃas diferentes del amanecer tomadas por mÃ, estas las ubico en "Trabajo".

KDE Plasma 6.5.2 Improves KRunner’s Search Result Ordering and Fixes Regressions
I freaking love that #KDE Dolphin has a checksum checker built-in. I was shocked that I never knew of its existence, when I first discovered it. Previously I'd need to check each file manually through the terminal.
Anyway, imagine if KDE/#Linux is mainstream - at least among the game modding/#emulation scene, we might be able to see people making/publishing tutorials use this feature to showcase to viewers how their (perfectly legal) so-and-so.iso may not be the same as the OP's so-and-so.iso by showing the checksums.
Pretty niche example lol but it really doesn't have to be. In short, it'd be nice if in any situation that requires teaching/telling people to obtain a certain file (i.e. an app, an update, a script) - we could educate how to easily identify if the files you have are exactly what you need. If something like KDE #PlasmaDesktop was mainstream, it'd be as simple as right clicking your file and inspecting its properties - no terminal commands needed.
KDE Plasma 6.5.1 Is Out to Fix Compatibility Issues with Older AMD GPUs
As it turns out, weird-looking blur in Plasma 6.5 is a bug:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510818
Found out about it from here:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/blur-effect-is-brighter-on-6-5-and-doesnt-match-the-theme/40946
I think I will need to get a KDE 4 VM installed to do testing to see how Diamond originally looked, because I want to modify Diamond4on6 to both 1. use the version from my backup (2.0.3, meaning the repo version will be rebased [this is because 2.0.3 works better]) and 2. I need to have a way to mess around with it in a state where it works and doesn't have a grey background.
#Diamond4on6 #KDE #KDEPlasma #PlasmaDesktop #KDE4 #KDE6 #Plasma6
Plasma 6.5 appears to have changed something that makes the Plasma 4 Diamond theme not look like it used to before the update. I'll have to work on that now I guess. Not looking forward to it.
KDE Plasma 6.5 Desktop Environment Officially Released, This Is What’s New
Did you know that #KDE 's KRunner accessible via Alt+F2 hotkey(combination) can do simple math, convert units and currencies for you?
All of that offline. No need to query a web search engine or use a web browser at all, not to mention asking a large language model that'd probably give you wrong results at a million times higher computational, memory and energy cost than what this launcher does.
I love you, @kde ! Plasma is the best :D
KDE Plasma 6.4.5 Fixes Brightness Flickering Issues with AMD GPU Drivers
@rolarizpe @natofe @spideymang @v No habÃa tenido tiempo de grabarles este corto para ilustrar las funciones de escritorios y actividades en #PlasmaDesktop... Echen un ojo, las actividades son útiles más allá del acomodo de ventanas en el espacio disponible (agrega valor incluso si tienes muchos monitores).
Escritorios y Actividades PlasmaDesktop
Ayer compartÃa la disposición fÃsica de mi escritorio con los dos monitores llenos de aplicaciones en plena acción; hoy, muestro la tradicional captura de pantalla, con las formalidades del dÃa.
Las fotos fueron tomadas por mÃ, en el bulevar de #Veracruz. Para la del monitor de la izquierda, apunté la cámara al lugar donde pensaba sentarme y usé timelapse. En la foto del monitor de la derecha sale mi hija a sus tres años.

Ni un solo problema.
Comprobando en #btop como va el rendimiento.
First Look at KDE’s Initial System Setup (KISS) Tool in KDE Plasma 6.5
Estoy iniciando un doctorado en educación, con una mezcla de entusiasmo y temor a que mi vista no aguante el ritmo :al_e_sweatyflush:
Aunque nunca he dejado de usar #Zotero, ahora vuelve a estar en el top 5 de mis aplicaciones frecuentes. Por cierto, con este uso más intensivo he notado mejoras formidables en su séptima versión.
Ya es #ViernesDeEscritorio en Beijing (no estoy ahÃ, solo justifico infantilmente mi adelanto 😅).
