As much as I like @fedora must admit no major version upgrade comes smooth :ablobcatcry:

This time, upgrading to Fedora v42 has weirdest issue on bootup when it asks for LUKS decryption phrase: it asks once, then attempts to boot, and then asks again, however, neither laptop nor external keyboard inputs anything.

So I loaded Kernel of Fedora v41 (all smooth with it) and when booted reinstalled Kernel:

sudo dnf reinstall kernel\*

Interestingly, it helped - after choosing 6.14.4-300.fc42.x86_64 Kernel, it asked for LUKS passphrase input, accepted it, then briefly flashed again (oh no, I thought!), but dialog disappeared and session manager loaded up.

There is always so much stress when upgrading :fedora: major version... :blobcatfearful:

“The #HousingCrisis has dominated the #FederalElection campaign, and all sides of politics have desperately tried to #harness or #neutralise it as an #issue.

An analysis by The #AFR of nearly 25,000 data points compiled by research firm Cotality, formerly #CoreLogic, reveals how the property market is playing out at an electorate-by-electorate level, and what this means for #voters – both at the #election on May 3 and into the future”

Oh yay, would you look at that, another “use” for AI: looks like at least my repos on @Codeberg are getting hit by a deluge of AI-generated issue spam.

Imagine the kind of sad, meaningless life you must have to attack free and open source projects on a community owned and operated source forge.

So it does look like the TypeScript language server has a limit of 4MB source size where it disables type checking (and actually shows an erroneous error stating that exports that exist in the file do not exist) for files that are imported but not open in the current workspace/session.

Still not sure if this is documented anywhere or not (haven’t been able to find it, if it is).

99.99999% of the time, unless you’re doing niche stuff like I am, you won’t run into this.

Workaround: should you have such a large file, e.g., with a large generated object, try and refactor to split it up into multiple files and rejoin it a separate file. The actual object size/memory usage isn’t the issue, it’s the file size.

Two days ago some problems started with one of our backup workflows on a specific proxmox node.

"I Love Free Software Day" is over but I love it today as well!
So, many thanks to memtest.org/ for finding the faulty ram!

This has been driving me absolutely mental the last few days.

My iPhone isn’t retaining my Location and Privacy preferences. Every day it prompts me multiple times to give location access to my Apps. Even core ones like Maps and Weather (pictured).

Has anyone else come across this issue? How did you solve it?
