  • Firefox screenshot causes system to freeze in KDE

    March 26th, 2023

    This bug was first reported on 2021-12-06 with KDE Plasma 5.23.4 and there is still no fix in version 5.27.3!

    https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446581

    The freeze is presumably caused by Firefox attempting to update the clipboard and show a notification at the same time.

    A temporary solution would be to disable Firefox notifications:

  • Gordon Moore, Intel Co-Founder, Dies at 94

    March 25th, 2023

    He proposed the so called Moore’s law:

    The number of transistors in an integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years.

    “The observation is named after Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel (and former CEO of the latter), who in 1965 posited a doubling every year in the number of components per integrated circuit,[a] and projected this rate of growth would continue for at least another decade. In 1975, looking forward to the next decade, he revised the forecast to doubling every two years, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 41%. While Moore did not use empirical evidence in forecasting that the historical trend would continue, his prediction held since 1975 and has since become known as a “law”.”
