I just want a consistent name for my home dir

Assigned system configuration at birth

Justified is the wrong word.

numanair ,

Do you have recurrent corneal erosions?

numanair ,

Is this a joke about the 2038 problem?

numanair ,

Sometimes the limits they tell you are wrong. Sometimes they truncate your password without telling you. Sometimes the app has different requirements than the website.

numanair ,

Yeah, this. Freecad does not count even though it’s slowly getting better. There needs to be industry tools available.

numanair ,

Most of them are, but there are non UWP apps on there too.

numanair ,

ADB and Fastboot both run natively on Linux. I don’t think I’ve needed other tools since the HP Touchpad days. And that didn’t come with Android in the first place.

numanair ,

That does not sound like trash to me. I can see how those issues with Google connections are problematic for some users, but as the article acknowledges, lineage is primarily targeting people who want to update their old devices. Sounds like degoogling is best done with a different rom is all.

numanair ,

You mean as a prefix, right?

numanair ,

Oh I see, thanks. Good alternative to final3_release2.

numanair ,

Same. 3?

numanair ,

Have you tried Eternity?

How’s touch though? From what I’ve tried Linux touch doesn’t scroll the way Windows does.

EDIT: It was just firefox I was thinking of. One line added to a config and touch scrolls just fine.

numanair ,

Oh I meant touch screen. In my experience they do work out of the box, but not quite in the way I expect is all. I’m already dual booting so I could easily test out that stuff.

numanair ,

The university here had someone change a building name to Bladee Hall and no one ever fixed it.

numanair ,

Never had something break on Linux that was not my fault (outside of running hardware so old I had to fix some boot options). Meanwhile, using Windows feels like I’m back at my bug test job. Issues persist for years with no solution!

numanair ,

Isn’t that both a feature and a potential difficulty? I’ve never used it, but I would think that’s part of the appeal for some people/use cases.

numanair ,

This is the biggest issue for me. No idea what we can do to get those companies to switch. I think it would benefit them in the future too. Autodesk had that cloud-vm version of fusion for a while, but I’d imagine that was costing them more due to Windows.

numanair ,

What about other products-as-a-service? And on what grounds? I think it’s unwise to use/rely on these services, but I’m not sure how they should be regulated. At a minimum your data should be freely exported in bulk on request.

Kog = dog with KDE?

I totally forgot how terrible a non-ad-free YouTube experience is

So I’ve been using youtube ad blockers since pretty much when ad blocker extensions were first available. Lately though I’ve been getting hit more and more with these messages that YT was sending out every 5 or so videos telling me that adblockers aren’t allowed. No problem, just gotta wait 5 seconds to x it out and then...

numanair ,

It won’t stop ads delivered by the same servers as the content.

I hate how everything requires you to download a shitty proprietary data harvesting app nowadays when everything can be done just fine without an app.

I have recently started a new position and am required to use an app that has three Facebook trackers, one of them being a Facebook location tracker according to Exodus App Privacy in order to get your food when it would literally work perfectly fine ordering to a real cashier or shit even a website rather than having to...

numanair ,

Yeah, same but they also worked as bus passes.

numanair ,

In addition to the emulator someone mentioned, you might want to try scrcpy, which lets you control and view your phone on your computer. No root needed and easier to use than an emulator.

numanair ,

Well when the mobile site is purposely a worse experience with nags and many dark patterns, I can understand that!

numanair ,

Forgetting is actually very important. There was a study done on mice that had been made unable to forget. One mouse was placed into a pool of water with a randomly placed rock for them to cling to. The mice that were unable to forget would not look for the new rock location when it was moved. Instead they endlessly swam around where the rock used to be.

numanair ,

They also turn them off for a number of other reasons.

Krita is amazing. The color-fill live layer is fantastic.

GNOME’s Native Screencasting Feature is Taking Shape (www.omglinux.com)

The developer working on integrating network display functionality into GNOME Shell shared short video clip to the GNOME sub-reddit […] the feature adds a “screencast” button to the row of actions in the Quick Settings menu. Clicking this opens a modal picker where the user can select any Miracast or Chromecast compatible...

numanair ,

Snapcast?

numanair ,

Last time I tried it, the liveCD booted fine but the full install had an extreme yellow tint to it.

numanair ,

Should be one of those stickers on the case.

numanair ,

Which AGESA version?

numanair ,

Thanks for the info! I’ll have to check that against what I’m using.
