Did I understand it right that you installed the driver manually? It's generally better to use the Fedora Nvidia driver package (sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia), than to download from Nvidia's website. I'm on Fedora 40 too, and currently using the 560.35.03 version of the driver on a 2080, which upgraded from 555 recently - I wonder if that's what broke compatibility with your version of the driver. It may be that you need to update. Only thing I'm not sure of is how this will interact with manually-installed drivers...

I've wanted this for a while; when I'm done with my computer, I don't mind it staying on a bit longer to do this, rather than when I next turn it on when I (presumably) want to do something. Great add!

That will downgrade you from plasma 6 to plasma 5. Not worth it!

my favorite thng about this image is how the mandatory hamburger acknowledgement is interrupting a scene where a man is getting shot in the face, emphasizing that the target audience is Americans

I get so aggressively spammed with this shit that I have deleted legitimate invited talks at real conferences

In defense of this warning, when I first put my application on Flathub, I had it because of how file i/o worked (didn't support XDG portals, so needed home folder access to save properly). It did actually motivate me to get things working with portals to not request the extra permissions and get the green "safe" marker.

A lot of apps will always be "unsafe" because they do things that requires hardware access, though, so I could see them wanting something more nuanced.

If you're on KDE using Discover for updates, the default on a lot of distros is to apply updates on reboot, but you can change this under the Software Update section of the System Settings app. I think it's not a bad idea; I'd rather have a bit of controlled downtime than risk borking my system.
