You should totally post your credit card number. Have you made your password database public yet? Don’t keep knowledge locked up…

Ubuntu users fight Canonical all the time too.

Really cool project, even though it has its flaws. Be prepared to search the documentation and update the configuration via the command line, as there’s no settings page in the web interface.

I had some trouble with it throwing a fatal error on URLs longer than the max filename length on my filesystem, but the author has been very responsive on GitHub. I replied to a 3-4 year old closed issue and the author opened it again and tried implementing a new fix in the dev version. I’m encountering another issue with using the dev version in my setup right now, but I think that’s being worked on.

Between Nepal and Nigeria, it seems.

What exactly does this mean for everyday Linux usage?

Once it’s on the internet, it’ll be there till the day you die.

Unless it’s something you want to stay. Then it vanishes into the ether, and nobody seems to have it archived anywhere.

Probably because it looks like he only speaks in anime quotes and brings his plastic replica katana (“well ackchyually, it’s a tachi, as you can see because of the way…”) when going to the mall with his mom.

Shamelessly stolen joke. Here’s the original tweet, which I think is much better too: twitter.com/0xAsync/status/1607541407937339392

I’ll happily donate 5 bucks now and again to Firefox development, but I don’t want my donation to go to a 5-6 million dollar CEO salary.

clb92 ,

Which is why I’m not donating right now, even as a satisfied user of Firefox for 15+ years.

clb92 ,

By the way, you can still buy the old licenses, which will be grandfathered in, and they will keep the old license upgrade paths too (Basic -> Plus -> Pro), so now may be a good time to grab a Basic license if you think you might want a lifetime Basic, Plus or Pro license in the future.

For everyone who’s read Discworld, I imagine that’s Dibbler.

Some people in the comments here seem really hostile towards those who want to disable the feature, but I support your “right” to customize your Firefox exactly to your liking. I’m just happy that we can even do that.

Getting this feature is awesome, and being able to turn it off is also awesome.

To be super pedantic (sorry), that depends on how they’ve customized their UI. You can define a larger minimum tab width, if you’d like. Almost everything in Firefox is customizable.

clb92 ,

There’s a bunch of different ways you can customize it.

  • Default right click -> customize toolbars fore simple rearranging of toolbars, density setting and stuff
  • Changes made in about:config (such as “browser.tabs.tabMinWidth”)
  • And the most powerful but difficult, userChrome.css. The UI of Firefox is actually defined by CSS. More info: www.userchrome.org

EDIT: Oh and there are of course addons and themes too

Any anesthesiologists volunteering to crawl down there?

That wasn’t this guy, it was different cave. Turns out lots of people have died horribly in caves.

clb92 ,

You and I define “safer” differently.

clb92 ,

Call me selfish, but I’m worrying more about what’s safe for me.

Also, If I’m at a distance where I’m exploded into chunks, then the people who could be hurt by those chunks are likely to not be doing so great themselves either.

clb92 ,

Like == but more strict. The == operator will do type conversion, so 0 == ‘’ will actually be true, as an example. Sometimes (honestly, most times) you may want to compare more strictly.

See this StackOverflow answer: stackoverflow.com/…/which-equals-operator-vs-shou…

Omg, it’s scary how accurate this is!

I’ve found that they don’t always fit properly in all female Micro USB connectors, but they are quite interesting.

I’ve previously used versions 1.4.* and 1.5.* quite a bit for print, because I’m a one-man marketing department in a tiny company.

Scribus was (is?) somewhat finicky and cumbersome to work with. It had certain quirks and workarounds you had to learn to deal with. It lacked many creative features you find in bigger suites. I didn’t feel like I worked quickly and efficiently in it. BUT I got my work done in it nevertheless, and I really appreciate that it exists for the people that simply can’t afford the alternatives.

Nowadays I use the Affinity suite, which includes Affinity Publisher, a competitor to InDesign. It’s quite affordable and not subscription-based.

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

clb92 ,

Most of the problems I’ve experienced with Ubuntu recently were caused by Snap. I really hate that they insist shipping that buggy mess.

Did you check that the date and time is set correctly in the BIOS?

What about the predictable beginning and the predictable middle part, between the beginning and the end? I usually just skip those too.

EU Article 45 requires that browsers trust certificate authorities appointed by governments (www.eff.org)

EU Article 45 requires that browsers trust certificate authorities appointed by governments::The EU is poised to pass a sweeping new regulation, eIDAS 2.0. Buried deep in the text is Article 45, which returns us to the dark ages of 2011, when certificate authorities (CAs) could collaborate with governments to spy on encrypted...

I read it as “UAV strike”, and thought the workers had brought the big guns to the negotiating table.

Well, my screensaver tonight was quite unpleasant. I was back in school, about to go into an exam, but I couldn’t find any of my materials, I hadn’t done any work, I didn’t have any notes, and I couldn’t even remember what the topic was. I was panicking the whole time, waiting for someone to come in and call my name, all while desperately trying to figure out what the fuck was going on, looking in my bag for anything that might help, trying to find any exam related papers or files on my (apparently brand new) laptop.

Luckily I woke up and remembered that I’m not in school any more and haven’t been for years.

clb92 ,

Well that’s on you then.

  1. Keep encrypted backups of your password database, so that you can migrate to something else if you need to.

B. Make sure to have your password database synced to your phone or accessible in some other way when you’re out and about.

III. If purely offline and local password manager with no syncing, have a way for a trusted person to be able to access it, if you need them to.

• Lastly, attempt to not suffer memory loss and forget your main credentials to the password manager.

haha php bad, kill yourself 👌 lolol 💯👌👌😂😂😂

If you’re going to make these “If programming languages were X” jokes, at least be a little bit creative with them.

They have -30% sales sometimes. I actually bought the whole suite at 50% discount some years back, but I don’t think they’ve had another 50% discount for a long time now.

If you’re interested in any of the Affinity programs, keep an eye out for sales. I’m guessing the next one will be Black Friday / Cyber Monday.

Fuck Adobe.

I’m raised in a time were foxes had forelimbs

…and were bigger than a planet and were made of fire? Sure grandpa, let’s get you to to bed now.

(The second one is indeed really good)

No it isn’t?
