@AdrianVovk [I'd prefer to use Fractal but it does not have threads yet. Otherwise Fractal is all rounds superior user experience, and Element is somewhat... well not that great ;-)]

@AdrianVovk OK so cool I'll use Flatseal as a workaround up until that. Not the end of the world. Thanks for explaining this. With normal RPM's I do encounter PolicyKit queries from time to time so I'd figure this is what should happen also with Flatpak apps?

@AdrianVovk I use Fedora universally in all my machines, i.e. somewhat conservative choice :-)

The Matrix client in question is the official Element client.

@AdrianVovk

I can elaborate my earlier answer just a bit.

1. SSH service can be enabled from GNOME settings.
2. Network settings can be changed from GNOME settings.

Security-wise both are potentially much more destructive actions than let's say allowing app to access home directory files.

I'm not sure what you are referring to on asking permissions but I have never encountered a Flatpak app that would do that. E.g. in order to use a Matrix client I sometimes need to save or upload files. Without using Flatseal it simply is not possible.

In my iPhone the app both asks permissions OR I can enabled/disable them explicitly from settings. I don't really think this is too much robustness to ask but obviously it is in the end the choice of those who develop GNOME.

Just my silly opinion I guess...

@AdrianVovk It's a too broad question to answer :-)

@AdrianVovk So... But... You can even enable some system-level services from GNOME settings. And you really have no use for Flatpak for any productive work if you don't have this functionality.

#Flatpak would be much better if #Flatseal functionality would be somehow embedded nicely straight into #GNOME settings. Lack of such functionality out-of-the-box is the main glitch of the Linux app ecosystem for me.

I would take the reference from privacy and security settings of macOS. Flatseal is pretty much the same deal, isn't it?

"A Short History of the 303 in 12 songs 🙂 How the 303 failed successfully - our fav TB-303 patterns"

Personal trivia: the oldest noticable 303 song I know is "Let me go" from Heaven 17. It came out 1983 and 303 was discontinued 1984 (manufactured 1981-1984, it was a commercial flop).

@piiabartos tunnistin spotifyn top kympistä taylor switftin. kaikki muut oli never heard. tosin eilen mulle selvisi myös, että saturday night livestä on ollut joskus suomi-versiokin (telkkarin katsominen päättyi vuonna 2007 kun olis pitänyt hankkia digiboksi).

The most obvious feature one could ever imagine would be trivial filter by status but not in #Github 🤷

@ezivkovic @davidlattimore Rust should be quite feasible for that because it is for most part static linking blobs together to a larger blobs. There is no DSO deps and complexity of PLT/GOT.

@FSMaxB OK got it :-)

M4 Pro is really super good. For me x86 has the benefit that sometimes I end up using toolchains that are provided only as binary. Kind of stupid reason but not that uncommon in embedded.

Or you have option to compile toolchain yourself from source in some cases but you know super incovenient...

I sometimes do ARM64 Linux compilations with my M2 Pro Mini.

@FSMaxB OK.... so I'm not sure where's what, but that said whatever works for you works for me and I hope vice-versa ;-)

@ezivkovic @davidlattimore I've been playing with mold. I guess this is something more fresh?

I'm always eager to try out latest and greatest in linking so I thank you for the tip anyhow :-)

9950X has been pretty good choice for compiling complex Rust projects.

I doubt that ThreadRipper would have been worth of the price and also electricity consumption given that linking is the main bottleneck of the larger project. In single-core performance 9950X is great and I would cherish the day really when 16 physical cores would be THE bottleneck for the liking process to be honest.

E.g. for compiling Buildroot/Yocto images or similar multi-executable project you could get much more out of ThreadRipper than in my use.
