As glitches go, I thought this was pretty cool. Let's just say that I was in the right headspace for psychedelic colors. This happened to me last night on Bazzite Nvidia. It lasted for a few minutes, but before I could think to take a picture, it corrected itself. Must be a game issue if it is also happening on PS5. The only reference I could find online was this reddit post. May be HDR related. https://old.reddit.com/r/BaldursGate3/comments/1kbqqn4/weird_color_issue_on_ps5_since_dleding_patch_8/

This is a beautifully written and incisive article that I chanced upon this evening. I don't know how we happened on the subject of the film, but my wife wondered aloud if there was a chance that the diva's performance was authentic, meaning voiced by a single person in real time. To my knowledge, there's no way for a human to be polyphonic to the extreme degree of the diva, but I tried to dig up some info on the subject anyway, eventually coming across this lovely piece. I hope you'll find it, as I did, an brief respite from the terrible reality in which we find ourselves. ✌️

You'd think we'd have come up with a better system in the last twenty years. 😆

I've been meaning to cancel online for two years. Went on the web site tonight and spent 30 minutes trying to turn this off. The cancel link takes me to a page with two sections, one where I can apparently buy vouchers (whatever they are) and the other just says I have a subscription. No option to turn off auto renewal. Talk about dark patterns. Any suggestions?

Edit: OK, whew. Took me two hours but I finally got it. Had to do it on the eShop on the Switch, which I didn't want to do because I knew I'd have to put in my new WiFi password and then run updates before it'd let me do anything.

This was not a good experience. Very hostile.

Thanks to all who tried to help. ✌️

We know now that you can't turn "base metals" into gold through chemical processes, but if you could, gold would no longer be scarce and therefore no more valuable than the base metals.

I was looking at the RTX 5090 listings on NewEgg and the last picture (7/7) on this MSI card is a thing I don't recognize. Anyone know what it is?

This started a couple days ago. I tried clearing the browser cache, which did not change the behavior. The counts show up normally in the Lemmy UI. My slrpnk account is my only Lemmy account so I have no visibility as to whether this is an issue on other instances.

TL;DR: Beware! Tried to send 32 tabs from Windows VM browser instance to Fedora browser instance. Entire VM crashed then browser process on Linux host crashed.

Before winter break I virtualized a Windows PC and set it up as a KVM/QEMU guest on Fedora running on the same hardware. Got IOMMU/Vfio passthrough working on guest. Loving the near-native performance. Seems really solid. Left it running continuously for several days, compiled multiple projects. Got over a week of usage with VM and had no issues.

Set up a new Firefox account for work to accommodate new workflow. Set it up to only sync certain items, but I forget which. Can't tell from account management page. Logged in on browser instances on both host and guest. I'd accumulated some tabs on guest instance that I wanted to bookmark on host instance. Tried a single tab using Send Tab to Device. Worked fine. Selected all tabs, did Send 32 Tabs to Device. Tabs appeared on host instance, appeared to be loading. Then my external monitor went black. VM had crashed. Browser instance on host stopped responding moments later, then closed itself after a brief time.

Both host and guest running 133.0.3. Host instance was installed from flatpak.

Nothing notable in Windows System log except for the usual "previous system shutdown was unexpected" EventLog and Kernel-Power events.

Edit: Was able to reproduce the VM crash with only 10 tabs. At 20 tabs, the VM crashed and the host browser process died as in the original incident.

Final edit: I got all the Linux stuff right but made a dumb mistake generating the image on the Windows side. Watching the VM boot right now. Thanks to all for your support!

Contemplating Fedora Kinoite for work daily driver. Need to prove that I can virtualize an existing physical Windows 11 machine. Using Bazzite on a personal laptop as a host test bed.

Test host seems to be set up correctly. I layered the packages in the virtualization group, layered virtio-win (from downloaded rpm package), added my user to the libvert group, and enabled libvirtd. After a reboot or two, I can connect with the Virtual Machine Manager and define my VM.

On physical machine I used Disk2vhd to generate a vhdx. Moved that file to the test host and converted to qcow2. Copied disk image to /var/lib/libvert/images and added it as my drive image when I defined the VM.

VM starts but will not boot. Stupid question: Should I have installed virt-win-gt-x64.msi from the virtio-win ISO on the source Windows install before I created the vhdx?

Edit: Since I posted, I installed a Debian guest from scratch in this environment and it runs like a champ. 👍
