 Given that there are only ~430 people in the Kubuntu forums and if  contrasted against the 1000's of Kubuntu downloads, I would say skip IRC. As for torrents (and IRC's), anyone savvy enough to employ such tool are typically savvy enough to install either as needed.
 Sorry, wrong thread...
[08:06] <Mcklaren> hi
[10:47] <Alabalistic> well well well. Big thanks to all Devs and contributers to kde, The best desktop ever.
[12:30] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:43] <BluesKaj> !anti-virus
[12:44] <BluesKaj> !antivirus
[13:12] <jabberwock> Curious if Linux has a firewall GUI like that (something "spy") macos program. I've never been curious until now
[13:16] <BluesKaj> jabberwock, no GUI that I know of, but there are cli based apps like clamav
[13:17] <jabberwock> Little Snitch!
[13:18] <jabberwock> Not spy
[13:18] <jabberwock> BluesKaj: Seems totally possible though, using one of those dialog GUI frontends
[13:18] <jabberwock> a project to add to the never-ending queue lol
[13:19] <BluesKaj> there isn't a lot of call for a GUI IME
[13:19] <jabberwock> TIL: Enabling USB power sharing in the BIOS seems to cause random system freezes
[13:20] <jabberwock> BluesKaj: Makes sense. Most linux folks seem more adept with such things
[13:21] <BluesKaj> most linux users learn to use the cli to some degree
[13:29] <jabberwock> BluesKaj: TBH I wouldn't mind something like LittleSnitch within environments like KDE - where things are reaching out constantly. Also to help me note which apps contact which endpoints
[13:30] <jabberwock> At the end of the day I just ran the whole thing through burpsuite. That's what helped me pin down Korganizer not sending auth headers for icloud sync
[13:31] <BluesKaj> jabberwock, try sudo netstat -tapen
[13:32] <BluesKaj> for endpoints
[13:35] <jabberwock> lol: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/column-width-for-netstat-top-etc-260211/
[13:35] <jabberwock> some day we're going to have to give all of these tools like netstat, htop, etc. json output
[17:41] <jabberwock> I can DoS myself by entering nfs://172.16.1.251 as a network stream in VLC. Nice
[17:41] <jabberwock> regression testing is such an after thought in so many linux apps that it can bug the shit out of me.
[17:45] <jabberwock> $ clementine

[19:02] <kdeguy> hey kde buntu folk. Quick question - is it the same with kubuntu as with ubuntu - when the first point release of 22.04 comes out, i will be prompted to upgrade to it from 20.04?
[19:12] <kdeguy> anyone?
[20:01] <mparillo> Yes, AIUI, LTS to LTS upgrades are only triggered after the .1 is out.
[20:02] <valorie> not always immediately tho
[20:03] <valorie> at least once they stopped a few days to fix a severe .1 bug
[20:10] <gatekeeper137> Hy everyone (sorry for my english)
[20:10] <gatekeeper137> In my version LibreOffice 6.4.7.2, in print dialog there is no tab "Page layout", what is the issue?
