KDE brings Wayland PiP to Plasma 6.5, adds finishing touches to 6.4 as release nears by David Uzondu The KDE team has released its This Week in Plasma update, showing the final polish being applied to Plasma 6.4 ahead of its June 17 release. Last week, the KDE team brought performance upgrades, and this week the team is continuing that with improvements like faster loading for System Monitor components in Plasma 6.4. Future work for Plasma 6.5 is already underway, and it includes a feature that many have probably been waiting for: proper Picture-in-Picture support on Wayland. This uses an experimental version of the Wayland PiP protocol, which means applications like Firefox that also implement it can finally display PiP windows correctly. It is a long-overdue addition that moves the Wayland session closer to feature parity with X11. The devs also merged KWin's Background Contrast effect into the Blur effect. Virtual desktops can now be re-ordered from the Pager widget, a feature previously missing. Invert and Zoom settings have been moved into the Accessibility page, which is a more sensible place for them than the Desktop Effects page was. The team also brought consistency to the Breeze application style, with animated effects for checkboxes and radio buttons now working in QtQuick-based apps. Other small cleanups include standardizing the section headers in the Disks & Devices, Networks, and Bluetooth widgets. For those who do a lot of screen recording, Spectacle now makes it much clearer how to stop a recording, both in its notifications and shortcut names. As for the immediate future, Plasma 6.4 and its first point release are getting accessibility and user interface tweaks. The team improved text contrast for labels used in secondary roles throughout Plasma, making things like brightness indicators much easier to read. The Kicker Application Menu in 6.4 can now scroll horizontally when a search returns a ton of results, so you can actually see all of them. The team also delivered some stability improvements in Plasma 6.4.0, most notably fixing a long-standing issue where adding widgets to oversized panels could freeze the entire shell. Discover also got a much-needed fix for a crash that occurred when suggesting replacements for unsupported Flatpak apps. On the usability side, dragging files into a Folder View widget no longer causes glitchy visuals, and Open and Save dialogs from Flatpak-based browsers now properly allow the preview pane to open. Printing from Flatpak GTK apps now respects correct sizing, and installing or removing apps no longer wipes out your search input in Kicker or Kickoff while you're using it. Other notable fixes include: Selection rectangles on the desktop now render properly when using custom fonts or sizes (Plasma 6.3.6) A crash in System Monitor charts used by apps and Plasma components has been resolved (Frameworks 6.15) Switching process views in System Monitor no longer causes crashes (Frameworks 6.16) Open and Save dialogs no longer close when hovering over specific files (Frameworks 6.16) A thumbnailer crash on X11 caused by certain widget styles has been fixed (KDE Gear 25.04.3) Frameworks 6.15 also speeds up System Monitor by delaying tree view arrow loading There are still 3 high-priority Plasma bugs holding out, and the list of quick-win "15-minute bugs" has grown to 23. -

Fresh leak suggests OnePlus Pad Lite in the works, key specs revealed by Sagar Naresh Bhavsar OnePlus recently unveiled the mid-range OnePlus 13s and the OnePlus Pad 3 Android tablet in India (the tablet is also coming to the U.S.). Now, it appears that the company is working on another tablet, this time, a budget model called the OnePlus Pad Lite. Supposedly, it will be the successor to the OnePlus Pad Go, which launched in the U.K., India, and European countries. According to the leaked images, OnePlus Pad Lite follows the same design elements as earlier OnePlus tablets. The tablet is shown to have a circular camera at the center of the rear panel, with the logo sitting in the middle. The USB-C port and speaker grills are located on the right side frame of the tablet. The alleged OnePlus Pad Lite measures 254.9 x 166.5 x 7.4mm and weighs 539 grams, which is slightly taller, wider, and thinner, but weighs less compared to the OnePlus Pad Go. The tablet, courtesy of 91Mobiles and OnLeaks, is displayed in blue, which could be the only color option. One image shows the tablet with a cover that doubles as a kickstand, but may be sold separately. Gallery: OnePlus Pad Lite Based on the leaked specs, the OnePlus Pad Lite could feature an 11-inch LCD 1920x1080 resolution 90Hz display. It could be powered by the MediaTek Helio G100 processor and paired with the Mali G57 GPU. The tablet may come with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage, with more storage and RAM options available at launch. Reportedly, the OnePlus Pad Lite could feature a 5MP primary camera and a 5MP selfie camera. Under the hood, it could be juiced by a 9,340 mAh battery. On the software side, OnePlus Pad Lite may come with OxygenOS 15.0.1 based on Android 15 out of the box. There is no clarity on which market OnePlus plans to launch the OnePlus Pad Lite in. However, the report suggests that it could be priced under ₹20,000 (roughly $231). Images by 91mobiles x OnLeaks -

Zen Browser 1.13b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces.
