I'm a newbie and am using kubuntu. I've installed a widget called plasma fancy clock. I rotated the widget on the screen to fit with the wallpaper (brick lines of a tilted wall) but realized that the angle I wanted was between non-rotated and the smallest angle I could rotate. Could someone please give me some advice? Maybe a certain file that I can input the accurate angle into (have been searching but can't find anywhere)?

I've been looking for a way to update my KDE connect binary on my Mac and realised that the binary-factory.kde.org was gone.

Found the new site at kde.org but I fail to find the updated MacOS binaries now.

Can anyone help? Thank you

ATTENTION PLASMA WIDGET, THEME AND ADD-ON DEVELOPERS:

KDE loves all your stuff, but you need to port it for it to work in #Plasma6. We have created a handy, easy-to-follow guide for extensions and widgets at

https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/widget/porting_kf6/

Theme developers, please check out this:

https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/theme/theme-porting-to-plasma6/

Porting is quite straightforward and should not take you long.

Keep your users happy! Port your stuff!

Title says it really, I really want to have both the sleep and hibernate option added to this part of my setup, but how? I use the Application Dashboard for when I click the meta button.

Am on NixOS if that has anything to say in the matter.

I feel stupid for asking this. I always did fresh installs in the past but now I have an install that I've customized and use as a daily driver.

Will endeavor os automatically update to KDE 6 with the pacman -Syu command?
