Hi all,

I am about to do a bit of a distro hop, and I am looking at Fedora and its spins, after years on Debian / POP.

I am not looking forward to setting it all up again, it's a drag.

I wonder, is there a tool that lets me script installs?

I'll want to check if application exists, and if so, update, otherwise, install. That kind of thing.

Things like:

• Telegram
• Joplin
• Docker
• Firefox
• Ungoogle Chromium
• Sublime Text
• VSCodium
• Keepass
• Thunderbird
• DBeaver
• Gimp
• Inkscape
• KDENLive
• Syncthing
• Steam
• VLC
• Localsend
• Flameshot
• Element
• Cherrytree
• Calibre
• Anydesk

I show the list, only to give an idea of what might be involved.

I'm new to Fedora, so not sure how it differs beyond the package manager. But, thought I'd ask.

Does such a tool exist, and is it worth my time? I can practice on a VM before trying on the final install/s.

Thank you

In town for a few months. Been watching the tap on rates on the trams.

I'm going to hazard an approximation of about 20% of people are actually tapping on. Maybe 30% at a stretch.

Surely if they did a Brisbane, and dropped it to 50c or even $1, then most everyone would tap.

There comes a point , when things are affordable rnough, that it's not worth the risk / anxiety.

At current pricing it's obviously still worth the risk.

I can only imagine if the 70% or so that are not paying, paid $1, that there'd be more money in the system.

Hi everybody, just checking in to see if there's anything like the subject is requesting.

I really love the pinterest back in the day, but it's privacy abuses are obscene.

And I just want to know if anybody is aware of anything that is a better option for someone who's more privacy focused.

Thank you so much.

As per title.

I've avoided updating for months now seeing all the complaints.

Did Samsung resolve the issue?

If there is in interest in the reference material let me know.

Hi all,

I have a USB C headset.

I am setting it up, so it's plugged into my Linux box, so it can listen to music, and make calls, etc from my phone, via bluetooth.

Then I don't have to keep unplugging my headset and plugging it into my phone.

Also so I can record directly to the Linux machine, that is broadcast from my phone.

But, how can I intercept the Bluetooth audio, and record it?

Thank you.

Hi everybody, I find a huge part of my job is talking to colleagues and clients and at the end of those phone calls, I have to write a summary of what happened, plus any key points that I need to focus on followup.

I figured it would be an excellent task for a LLM.

It would need intercept the phone call dialogue, and transcribe the dialogue.

Then afterwards I would want to summarize it.

I'm not talking about teams meetings or anything like that, I'm talking a traditional phone call, via a mobile phone to another phone.

I understand that that could be two different pieces of software, and that would be fine, but I am wondering if there is any such tool out there, or a tool in the making?

If you have any leads, I'd love to hear them.

Thank you so much

I'm doing a big lap of Australia.

We spent some time in and around Sydney recently and we were shocked, and appalled at the state of the roads.

After a few days in, we started counting potholes that were big enough to HAVE to avoid, and at over 40 on one road, gave up counting.

I honestly have never seen worse roads in my life.

Km after km of bumpy, holey, accidents waiting to happen.

The worst roads in the country. Totally shameful in a country like Australia.

So the question is, how did it come to this?

I know the last state leader, Gladys, was done for corruption.

I've followed friendly Geordies and the mafia like corruption of Barilaro is blatantly obvious.

Is it "leaders" being corrupt, or something other issue.

I'm not from NSW, so am interested to know.

Brisbane for example, was woefully lacking in infrastructure, so they had to play catch up on their roads, and over 20 or so years have caught up. The roads were never a death trap like Sydney's though.

Any thoughts?
