    EndeavourOS Marks Fifth Anniversary with Plasma 6.1 Release

    Over two months after the debut of the Gemini release, EndeavourOS, a beloved Arch-based Linux distro known for its user-friendly yet powerful interface, has launched its latest update, Endeavour, to celebrate its five-year anniversary.

    [13:23] schestowitz[TR2]

    During the last year, the distro faced some challenges, but fortunately, those seem to be over.

    OpenBSD Power Management
    [13:30] schestowitz[TR2]
    [13:30] schestowitz[TR2]

    OpenBSD's power management features are powerful and plenty. My current setup floats the battery at 80% charged, to reduce battery wear during the work week, and it doesn't suspend when I close the lid as long as it's plugged in. On battery power, it adjusts the CPU speed under load to optimize battery life without sacrificing performance when I need it, and it will automatically suspend a [13:30] schestowitz[TR2] t 5% battery to save me from the system powering off unexpectedly. When I plan to head out, I can use a quick alias to allow the battery to charge all the way, which takes about 20 minutes from 80%. We'll go through how I have it set up.

    [13:30] schestowitz[TR2]

    Long-time readers of HiR will not be surprised I'm running OpenBSD as my primary general-purpose operating system on my ThinkPad X1 Carbon. Over on Instagram, people do a double-take. One of the surprises was the fact that in a NeoFetch screenshot, it was noted that my CPU was 400 MHz because I was on battery power without anything heavy running. Power management on OpenBSD also blew some [13:30] schestowitz[TR2] minds.

    [13:30] schestowitz[TR2]

    Out of the box, power management is disabled on OpenBSD. It's one of the few things that do not "just work" by default. The vast majority of OpenBSD systems do not need power management features, but it's a must for laptops.

    Initial work on Keychain

    [13:32] schestowitz[TR2]

    A month ago, I started working on a new application to manage your passwords in Plasma. And while still at a PoC status, this weekend, it finally started to look like something almost usable, so it sounded like a good occassion to write a small blog post about it.

    [13:32] schestowitz[TR2]

    The current name is Keychain or Plasma Keychain but this is subject to change and suggestions are more than welcome.
