The main event in Ubuntu 24.04 is GNOME 46, it you improved notifications, that can be expanded, or collapsed, and they'll now show a little symbolic icon next to their title. More interesting, you get experimental support for variable refresh rate. It's not enabled by default, you'll need to use dconf to turn it on.
Fractional scaling also got better, with fonts now looking less blurry and properly aligned when using fractional scaling, and you can now login to a GNOME user through RDP, instead of having to remote into a session where someone was already logged in.
Nautilus, the file manager, now finally lets you edit the file path by clicking on the path bar, it will also search faster, and through the entire filesystem by default now, file transfers are now moved to the sidebar, and you can also change a folder's icon from the properties panel of that folder. Finally, you also get a new option to change how dates are displayed.
The main system Settings changed a bit as well, with a new "system" page, default apps have been merged into the main "apps" settings page, which also includes the default actions you can configure when you insert removable media.
The mouse and touchpad settings now let you configure how you trigger the right click, and there's a new mouse test page to make sure these settings work for you. You can also turn off the touchpad when typing.
The GNOME Online accounts also received some love for its backend: it now uses the default browser for authentication into accounts. You can also add a WebDAV account, or a Microsoft Personal Account as well, which will give you access to your OneDrive storage straight from Nautilus.
Ubuntu 24.04 comes with the kernel 6.8, the latest available right now. The main thing in here is the new P state drivers, meaning your Intel CPUs will be able to hit their advertised boost speeds, but also that using it on laptops should yield better batter life, whether you have an AMD or Intel CPU, especially since Ubuntu 24.04 now uses better power profiles based on these new P State drivers.
Ubuntu also moves to Netplan, a network management tool that shouldn't change anything for regular users that just connect to wifi, but will definitely improve the life of people who have to create complex network configurations.
For gamers, you're also getting a better experience here: the virtual memory mapping limit was increased by a factor of 16 in 24.04, meaning that games that could crash at launch, or after a few hours of play time will no longer do so, at least if the crash was related to them trying to grab a lot of memory. It's a change that Arch also recently made.
Another interesting change is that all services that are affected by a library update will automatically be restarted, to ensure that these services will be running with the latest security fixes apps one, there'slied. It's more important for servers than desktops, but it's a good change, that you can disable if you don't like it.

Key Markets report for Thursday, July 3, 2025Alex Krainer (I-System TrendCompass)
If you think the Democrats are going to save us, think again. California’s state assembly, overwhelmingly Democratic, just passed a new fascistic censorship and government control bill, AB715, with 100% unanimous support.
The bill claims to protect public school students from antisemitism and islamophobia. In reality, it simply suppresses free speech of students and staff. It’s definition of antisemitism is so broad that it will likely lead to an official policy equating anti-Zionism, and criticism of Israel, with antisemitism.
It prohibits schools from using any instructional material the state finds discriminatory, which will likely lead to bans and erasures of maps and distortions of curriculum on Palestine, Kurdistan, and Arab and Muslim history, in general.
The law would create the state’s first “Antisemitism Czar,” a new bureaucratic arbiter of what is acceptable speech and curriculum versus what is to be considered “antisemitic.”
Teachers, staff, and board members would be subject to rapid and severe consequences should the state find them in violation of this new law. Not only is this a severe restriction on academic freedom and the ability of teachers to teach the historical facts to their students, but it’s a violation of teachers’ rights to due process and to protection from vindictive and arbitrary discipline. No where does it state that a teacher must be found guilty of discriminating against a student, or a class of students. All they have to do to be in violation of the law is to say something the new state Antisemitism Czar finds offensive, like “Palestinians have the right to self-determination,” or “Israel is committing genocide.” Or even something as innocent as "Save the Children in Palestine."

El ecuatoguineano, una de las voces más relevantes de la literatura africana en español, será desahuciado de su casa en Espinardo, donde reside desde hace 20 años.
El ecuatoguineano, una de las voces más relevantes de la literatura africana en español, será desahuciado de su casa en Espinardo, donde reside desde hace 20 años. La comunidad africana y afrodescendiente ha lanzado una campaña de apoyo ante este "nuevo capítulo de abandono institucional"
Donato Ndongo-Bidyogo (Niefang, 1950), considerado por muchos como el mayor intelectual africano en lengua española, se enfrenta a un desahucio que amenaza con dejarlo en la calle junto a su esposa e hijos. Será el próximo 7 de julio, en Espinardo (Murcia), donde reside desde principios de los 2000. El impago de su hipoteca, producto de una situación económica asfixiante agravada por su exilio forzado y décadas de exclusión institucional, ha desembocado en una orden de desahucio que ya no tiene marcha atrás. “No estoy deprimido, ni me voy a suicidar. Llevo toda mi vida plantando cara al poder y no voy a agachar la cabeza ahora”, ha declarado a elDiario.es de la Región de Murcia.
Ndongo vive actualmente con su familia en una vivienda que compró en 2002, al instalarse en la Región de Murcia tras su expulsión de Guinea Ecuatorial, donde fue perseguido por el régimen dictatorial de Teodoro Obiang. “Me dijeron que estaban hartos de mí y que me tenía que ir”, contaba en una entrevista con este medio. Fue ministro del gobierno en el exilio, corresponsal de EFE en África Central y director del Centro Cultural Hispano-Guineano de Malabo hasta 1994, cuando tuvo que abandonar su país a punta de pistola.
Desde entonces, su carrera ha sido una sucesión de vetos. Fue cesado de su puesto en la Agencia EFE tras presiones que él vincula directamente al entonces director general de Política Exterior para África, Miguel Ángel Moratinos. Más tarde, en 2000, ganó el concurso público para fundar y dirigir un Centro de Estudios Africanos en la Universidad de Murcia, pero su contrato fue rescindido en 2004 sin explicaciones.
“Si no he podido pagar mi hipoteca es porque el Estado español me debe una pensión por todos los años que trabajé para EFE. Todo eso está acreditado, documentado y demostrado”, expone. Pese a su prestigio internacional como autor de obras como 'Las tinieblas de tu memoria negra' o 'El sueño', Ndongo sobrevive con una pensión mínima. Según relata, todos sus ingresos están destinados a que sus hijos puedan estudiar.
Ahora mismo se encuentra afrontando la ejecución hipotecaria en solitario: “Mis hijos están en Madrid y mi mujer, que se operó de la rodilla hace poco, está recuperándose en Francia con su madre. Estoy aquí solo, recibiendo telefonazos de medio mundo, porque nadie se puede creer lo que me está pasando. A finales de julio tengo una ponencia en Canarias y no sé cómo voy a prepararla sin casa”.
Durante décadas, Donato Ndongo ha denunciado las dictaduras africanas, el neocolonialismo europeo y la instrumentalización de la identidad negra en los discursos oficiales. Fue el último periodista que informaba desde Guinea Ecuatorial hacia el exterior antes de ser forzado a huir.
Sin alternativa habitacional, sin apoyo institucional y con apenas medios para resistir, Ndongo se enfrenta al desahucio con la dignidad de quien ha plantado cara al poder toda su vida. Asegura que no tiene intención de irse por su propio pie. “Si quieren que me vaya, me van a tener que sacar esposado o muerto. Si no resistimos, nos aplastan”. La fecha ya está marcada: el 7 de julio. Ese día, las autoridades acudirán a la vivienda de Espinardo para ejecutar la orden judicial.
La noticia del desahucio ha provocado una oleada de indignación en la comunidad africana y afrodescendiente en España, que ha emitido un comunicado urgente denunciando el abandono institucional que Ndongo ha sufrido durante décadas. “Cuando el sistema abandona, la comunidad se hace corresponsable”, afirman en el texto, en el que acusan al Estado español de invisibilizar y maltratar a quien consideran “nuestro escritor más universal”. Para evitar que la familia se quede en la calle, han lanzado una caja de resistencia con la que esperan reunir fondos que permitan, al menos, cubrir una vivienda en alquiler: ING - ES61 1465 0320 0617 4412 9794.
En su comunicado, los firmantes advierten de que lo que está ocurriendo con Ndongo no es un caso aislado, sino “una muestra más del racismo sistémico que a menudo impide nuestro progreso en países como España”. Pese a haber dedicado su vida a la recuperación de memorias históricas invisibilizadas y a la difusión de la cultura hispánica en tres continentes, denuncian que sus aportaciones han sido sistemáticamente ignoradas por las instituciones. “O quizá precisamente por eso”, ironizan. Reclaman no solo una solución inmediata a su situación habitacional, sino también el reconocimiento público de su trayectoria y la posibilidad de que “pueda ser contratado en algún lugar donde le valoren como se merece”.

I don't know if this is common knowledge but I hadn't found anything on the web (for Windows specifically) that stated that this was possible.
I kinda badly want to fully switch to Linux in the short term but wanted to first properly test how different distros feel at these specs (and maybe try some basic gaming too); maybe someone that wants to do the same can find this post useful (I hope this is the right community to post to).
To do this I used QEMU, and had to edit the source code and recompile it to enable 240hz.
Forcing higher refresh rates is surprisingly not that hard, I only had to edit a single line of code (hw\display\edid-generate.c, line ~390, set '75000' to '240000').
So far Mint, Fedora and KDE Neon work perfectly at that refresh rate (after adjusting mouse input polling rates), then I added a couple other nice features like shared clipboard and mouse device toggling (I tested q2pro and it wouldn't work with absolute mouse coordinates, and relative mouse was a pain to use in normal desktop browsing, so I had to find a way to toggle them if I didn't want to reboot the VM every time).
This is my very first lemmy post (hi fedi!), I wrote this lengthy blog post detailing how I did everything, hopefully I'm allowed to post it here (reddit traumatized me with the blanket banning).
Ever wanted to run a VM at 240hz on Windows? No? Understandable. But I did that anyway cause it seemed very cool to me (still is), and I've explained how to do that in this post. K bye.blog.enkhayzomachines.net

Singapore’s dynamic urban lifestyle requires healthcare systems that accommodate the schedules of its active residents. An ENT specialist in Singapore delivers timely care for ear, nose, or throat conditions, ensuring that symptoms do not disrupt work or personal routines. Hearing loss in Singapore can significantly affect productivity, social interactions, and overall well-being, necessitating prompt intervention to maintain quality of life.
ENT clinic Singapore facilities have adopted streamlined scheduling systems to address conditions like giddiness or chronic sinus issues efficiently. These systems allow patients to book appointments that align with their busy schedules, minimizing delays and ensuring timely access to care. This accessibility helps prevent symptom progression and supports patients in managing their health effectively, even for those considering advanced solutions such as a cochlear implant Singapore for profound hearing loss.
An ear nose throat specialist Singapore clinic provides rapid yet comprehensive evaluations for conditions such as throat discomfort or nasal congestion. By combining advanced diagnostic tools with thorough assessments, these facilities deliver accurate treatment plans that promote faster recovery. This approach enables patients to resume their dynamic lifestyles with minimal disruption, balancing health needs with daily responsibilities.
Ear nose throat clinic facilities in Singapore centralize a wide range of services to simplify the treatment process for patients with diverse ENT needs. A nose specialist performs detailed assessments to manage conditions like chronic sinusitis, allergies, or structural nasal blockages, developing personalized treatment plans to restore respiratory function. This integrated model reduces the need for multiple visits, saving patients time and effort.
Hearing challenges, including hearing loss in Singapore, are addressed through advanced diagnostics like audiometry tests, which provide critical data for treatment planning.

Thyroid conditions impacting the throat or neck region are managed by a thyroid specialist in Singapore who conducts comprehensive evaluations to address systemic issues.

ENT doctor Singapore clinics provide integrated care plans tailored to each patient’s specific needs, ensuring effective management of complex conditions.
For individuals with severe hearing impairments, cochlear implant Singapore procedures offer significant benefits in restoring auditory function. An ear specialist in Singapore works closely with patients to assess candidacy, provide preoperative counseling, and offer ongoing support throughout the recovery process. These advanced interventions highlight the capability of Singapore’s ENT clinics to address specialized healthcare needs with expertise and precision.
Singapore’s healthcare system prioritizes accessibility, and ENT doctors in Singapore practice have implemented user-friendly scheduling platforms to meet patient needs.

This flexibility ensures that health concerns, such as hearing loss in Singapore or giddiness, are addressed promptly without disrupting daily routines.
Conditions like hearing loss in Singapore or giddiness can significantly impact work productivity, sleep quality, and social engagement, making timely access to care essential.

This accessibility supports faster recovery and helps patients maintain their professional and personal responsibilities with minimal interruption.
Ear nose throat clinic facilities enhance patient convenience by integrating advanced booking systems that cater to busy lifestyles. Patients can select appointment slots that align with their schedules, ensuring that healthcare visits do not conflict with work or family obligations. This focus on accessibility underscores Singapore’s commitment to delivering patient-centered healthcare that meets the needs of its residents.
Choosing an ear nose throat specialist in Singapore requires careful consideration of clinical expertise and operational efficiency to ensure high-quality care. Clinics equipped with advanced diagnostic tools, such as those used by a sinus specialist in Singapore, streamline the evaluation process for conditions like chronic sinusitis or nasal obstructions. This approach reduces the need for external referrals, ensuring timely and accurate diagnoses that lead to effective treatment.

A mass extinction event around 252 million years ago wiped out around 90% of life.
A new study shows that the loss of vegetation during the event significantly reduced the planet’s ability to store carbon, meaning very high levels remained in the atmosphere.
A key takeaway from the study is what might happen if rapid global warming causes the planet’s rainforests to collapse as humans continue to heat up the planet by burning fossil fuels.
