Some kind of easy notification system and panel/dock/taskbar notification emblems. The support for stuff like that is incredibly spotty right now and is one of the final things preventing me from switching off windows.
EDIT: Have found a decent solution to this via Dash to Panel. I have been running Zorin OS for over the last month now on my main PCs!
Israel was dumb as fuck and attacked the ship, thinking it was an Egyptian ship:
The combined air and sea attack killed 34 crew members (naval officers, seamen, two marines, and one civilian NSA employee), wounded 171 crew members, and severely damaged the ship.
The US had a radio intercept flight in the area Israel didn’t know about, which heard the pilots identify the US flag before attacking (discussed in the book “Body of Secrets” about the NSA). This was swept under the rug, but the Israeli fighters knew they were attacking a US ship, which was in conveniently close to some reported mass graves.
I saw the cool feature of ChromeOS Desktop where you can save all open Window states inside a Workspace and resume them on another day again. Never used it on ChromeOS as I am not sure how but this seems easily possible soon with Plasma 6 where you can hibernate or rather store the current state of your Window.
I remember there were UX bugs though it’s been some time so I don’t really remember much.
One of them was that when I pressed windows and searched for an app sometimes it just wouldn’t react at all, and I had to press it multiple times or use another way to launch an application.
Also the default file manager would often hang up for no apparent reason.
The desktop widgets would change their position every single time I logged in and would even disappear.
They’re the same kind of tab; not a completely different application. Should we also listen to music in Dolphin? Watching video in Dolphin? Edit files in Dolphin? Should we make Dolphin the only app on the system and do everything in it?
Typically, when I open a terminal I want a normal size one, so I can see file listings, scrolling data etc. In my case I would say 99 times out of 100 I want a regular terminal rather than a small one at the bottom.
Should we also listen to music in Dolphin? Watching video in Dolphin? Edit files in Dolphin?
I mean, yeah. I use Krusader, and the reason why I use it instead of Dolphin is because Dolphin doesn’t give me an easy way to edit files and view images. In Krusader, “Edit” is F4 and “View” is F3.
Music and video files are easy. Previews, baby! Previews are very convenient. I want to make sure that I’m about to open the correct file. Or I’m trying to find a specific file, and the file names aren’t making it obvious. And so on. Now, this isn’t something that I’ve felt the need for, but it’s easy to see use cases for it.
Should we make Dolphin the only app on the system and do everything in it?
I would say that if something is going to take me only a minute or two to do, then it’s more convenient to do it from the file manager than to open a whole new program. Technically, Krusader is using kate, etc. under the hood to do all of that stuff, but it’s through the Krusader interface.
HOW? I looked all over the menus, pop up menu too.
Assuming you’re talking about XFCE’s Thunar file manager, it’s either File > Terminal or Terminal in the context menu for a directory.
If you don’t already have it for some reason you can add it in Edit > Configure custom actions. Create a new entry that runs your favorite terminal app and give it %f as the parameter that will take the value of the directory you want. Please make sure to select only “Directories” in the “Appeareance conditions” tab.
You can create other custom actions too, for example I use zenity --question && shred -fu %F to shred and remove a file after asking for confirmation.
I don’t have it, and the custom command doesn’t seem to apprear anywhere, but thank you anyway - at least I now know it’s supposed to be there and can look for fixes
Edit: i’ve reread your post and Appearance Conditions did the trick. Thank you!
Sometimes I just need to type one or two quick commands, maybe at the current path. I don't think this is necessarily to do a lot of work, it's just to give some more flexibility.
Nothing wrong in having options that some might find useful sometimes.
