I dont have a chance to check specifics but if theres no way to do it using the gui you can try the xrandr command. it has lots of options for screen positioning and the like.

In-progress COSMIC apps: terminal, file manager, text editor, and settings (fosstodon.org)

COSMIC is a Wayland desktop environment for Linux that is written in Rust with Smithay and Iced. COSMIC applications are developed with the libcosmic platform toolkit, which is based on iced. They are cross-platform and supported on Windows, Mac, and Redox OS in addition to Linux....

its sad that you’re so closed-minded and brainwashed to think “communism bad” that you wouldnt even consider the possibility of this being true

i think the high arch use is mostly steam deck users running steamos.

switch to linux and the Windows key becomes the Super key, unused in shortcuts by any application and so you can map it to whatever you want. super useful.

funny how peoples experience differs. Been using linux for years, and never had something break in a major way. I understand your point but would encourage you to try again someday.

Thanks to dust I deleted a 70 gig file on my drive

Dust is a rewrite of du (in rust obviously) that visualizes your directory tree and what percentage each file takes up. But it only prints as many files fit in your terminal height, so you see only the largest files. It’s been a better experience that du, which isn’t always easy to navigate to find big files (or atleast...

ah yes, one should expect people to just magically find your blog. Not trusting the site is your choice, but calling out honest, transparent self promotion is ridiculous. The alternative is lying and pretending to be somone else, that’s whats actually gross.

temu is a blatant scam even without the spyware. its sad so many people fall for it just so they can buy more cheap garbage.

you might be able to fix webpages telling you you’re outdated by changing your useragent string.

linux is often called a unix but it is only unix-like. It’s not officially unix cerrified the way macos, hp-ux, and others are.

fyi this summary is nonsense and gets multiple things wrong. great example of ai getting confused.

specifically, the context for the 5th paragraph is replaced, making it seem like it’s talking about the social democrats when in reality it is talking about the sweden democrats. Your logic is flawed, falsehoods can be and are introduced despite each sentence being taken straight from the article.

its called no stupid questions mate, no need to be a dickhead. as other people have said op probably isnt a native speaker and lots of other languages don’t capitalize titles the way we usually do in english.

in my opinion you shouldn’t guage quality of life by how advanced the devices we have are. i dont feel like having a high-tech smartphone provides me much happiness, it’s just a necessity for participating in modern society.

its hard coming from discord when you cant see messages from the past. do people just leave their client open 24/7. ive always wanted to use irc but never managed to find a room that had any activity

unified terminal colors.

I cant be the only person who wants all of my terminal applications to use same color scheme. It frustrates me that almost all terminal apps seem to set their colors with no respect to the 16 I chose for my terminal palette. I understand that more than 16 colors are sometimes useful, but additional colors could easily be...

Good on you for donating to kde and gnome! In case you don’t know, there is an option in discord settings to quit whenever the window is closed.

Could someone create an automated tool for installing dependencies from AUR? I've been getting nothing but errors trying to do so

I have a Steam Deck and I’ve been trying to install packages from AUR and have gotten nothing but endless errors trying to do so. The dependencies I want to install have dependencies which have dependencies which have dependencies....

sounds like something is going seriously wrong, you should never really be having to deal with this stuff (ive been using arch and the AUR for several years and never have). Im not sure it its a steam deck thing or what. Only thing I can say is make sure to always run sudo pacman -Syu before you install a new package.

Starting with a blank slate is so refreshing. It takes time to build everything up from scratch and I understand that you can get a great experience out of the box with other distros, but I love the simplicity of not having any bullshit I didn’t install myself.

my impression is that grapheneos is only private and secure compared to regular android. likewise, any linux distro is going to be secure and private when compared to windows.

if you’d read it you’d see the author has no problem with people who choose ideology over functionality, only people that try to force others to.
