    Hmm.. upgraded my to on my main PC with a 3050 GPU.

    Note: Running with KDE Plasma 6.

    However both and browsers are both flickering like mad !

    I cleared the GPUCache folders. No change.

    I've re-installed both and but the flickering continues.

    I've tried turning off Hardware Acceleration in both browsers..

    I've tried running

    sudo depmod -a

    and rebooting but that didn't fix it.

    Any thoughts/ideas?

    BBC Homepage.

    Is this a reflection of the BBC Editors or what people in the UK are interested in.

    Or more likely both.

    Am I the only one that finds it all a bit fucking sad IMHO?

    Decided to try on my old OnePlus5T

    The phone no longer gets updates from and I don't use it much so thought it would be a good device to try it on being my first custom rom since the old days.

    Installation was a little tricky on / but if you follow the instructions carefully it worked first time. (Docs could be improved a little)

    Phone feels fresh and snappier.

    Very impressed.

    Not sure I'm brave enough just yet to try it on my daily driver !

    Tried Today to create a simple Google Ad for my Local IT Support business.

    Simple ad to let local people in my specific postcode about us.

    Didn't realise that Google blocks all ads for 3rd Party PC Support. I can understand some extra checks might need to be made to make sure the business is legit and not people scamming passwords/logins etc but surely legit businesses should be able to advertise, especially as it has my phone number and home address on the ad
