My girlfriend’s 2012 MacBook Pro is also running Fedora like a beast with its upgraded 16GB or Ram and its SSD.

It’s great that old hardware gets a bew chance to shine!

• AppIndicator and Kstatusnotifieritem Support
• Auto move Windows
• Maximized By Default Reborn (doesn’t work on some of my apps which open at the start of every session)
• Tiling Assistant

I love Gnome stock but I really think these should be there by default.

I’ve also learned to wait a few months after each new version of Fedora as the extensions always need time to become compatible.

Sometimes I’m intrigued by how much I could recreate what I love in Gnome in KDE.

I won’t donate now as I only do that at the end of the year, but I’m really happy about Peertube getting a good mobile app!

This is where I got answers about how to get the wifi working on my wifés 2012 MacBook Pro running Fedora

I don’t remember the steps but the answers are in there.

It might be your reality but it’s clearly not mine.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve rewatched Alien or Terminator.

So yes it’s true that I’m using Netflix more than my DVD’s, but I’ll watch a lot of these movies again for sure.

Also, despite the low resolution, DVD’s now have some kind of charm in their picture quality and it’s perfectly good enough for me.

But, of course, someone who doesn’t enjoy cinema the way I do shouldn’t be going through such a hassle.

But then would I be able to read them on any computer without burning them?

I think it should be possible to still run Linux on almost every 25 years old computer.

If the computer is older than this, it really becomes a piece of history and I can accept that it’d take efforts from the user to keep it in use, just like a collection car.

I only hope no bricking update is gonna be proposed to the people running such old hardware. The distribution should check if the hardware is compatible with a newer kernel before updating.

Still I think it’s important that Linux remains the OS of choice for old hardware and that the some distros remain deficated to these museum pieces.

I had never thought about this but this is a great argument in favor of digital vs physical.

Still I prefer owning my games when given the choice.
