I should really look into peertube. With YouTube always breaking compatability with Newpipe and other apps, I’m tired of having to deal with YT’s outages

I remember when it used to be all the REALLY interesting stuff was root only, yet a lot of normal interesting stuff was non-root. Now even with root, modern Android can be a pain and the interesting stuff just pales in comparison with true Linux
Thank you for including RSS. I’ll be adding your site to my feed :)
Do you have a link? All I see in a quick internet search is about a crypto company
If it’s the Steam version, why not play through proton?
Totally off topic but what is that “Anti Commercial AI thingy” that you have linked? Is it to prevent AI scraping?
Apple remote desktop? Apple doesn’t support RDP. They do have a VNC client built in however
For desktop there’s ncspot, which is a Spotify TUI client written in Rust. Not exactly what you were asking for, but it does work well
Matrix bridges are nice until you realize that you have to be a mod in the server to add the bridge, you need to do it not only for every Discord server you want to use on matrix, but every channel as well. It’s a huge chore. And ofc it doesn’t work with Discord DMs.
Not blaming Matrix or the matrix bridge developers here because it’s not their fault. But let’s be honest: matrix bridges are a pain to set up for Discord and for a majority of people aren’t worth the hassle. Moving to Matrix would be the better choice if at all possible
Just ot make it clear to OP, Stable does NOT nesesarily mean bug free. Just like how most people are on the “stable” branch of Windows 10 or 11,but they still encounter bugs, “stable” Linux distros can also have bugs.
The difference between “stable” and not stable is that: 1.) The system is “stable” in that it’s very unlikely to crash. Stable Linux distros are much preferred for servers, for instance. 2.) Any OS related bugs you find will still be there likely until the next big release. (with Debian iirc this is like every 4 years)
How did you ever get the controls mapped correctly? I LOVE Outrun 2, but my ZR /ZL were mapped to a single Z axis, meaning I can’t break and use the gas at the same time, making drifting almost impossible :(
Totally agree with basically every point here. You hit the nail on the head. App images are the .exe’s of the Linux world and I don’t understand how someone can say they love app images but hate Window’s portable exe’s. Even Windows doesn’t have nearly as many portable executable as they once did. And when they do, most people (even those who prefer app images) prefer an exe with a Windows installer.
Anyways, this is all to point out why I avoid app images if at all possible
I can’t speak for the T460, but I have a T480 with dual batteries and battery swapping works just fine. With a bit of tinkering I was even able to get the fingerprint sensor to work as well
OpenSuse is great except for one (imho) zypper. When I do updates zyper has this huge section which is labeled “will not be upgraded”. For me it’s really distracting and makes reading which packages will be upgraded harder to parse visually at a glance
This is what I mean: https://superuser.com/questions/273424/am-i-using-zypper-correctly#361047
Installed from F-Droid. I still see it here
Awesome! Yeah, that’s what I was a bit apprehensive about. I’ve only seen screenshots of a blank desktop so far, and they always show the dock. And the “apply pressure” method is definitely the better way to go.
I love the new lockscreen. Looks great so far.
I’ve got some concerns about the screen space usage for the desktop itself however. Between the top “Gnome” bar and the bottom panel for apps, that’s a lot of vertical space used up. I can imagine this being awful for small screen laptops. Gnome doesn’t have this issue because the bottom “dock” is hidden until the actitives button is pressed. Will Cosmic in some way allow the user to hide or move the bottom panel?
It’s for when you have really nested directories. It happens especially when you’re working in a file space used by others. I used to have a folder I would often reach called /media/nas/documents/personal/school/foo/bar/foobar2001/projectA
I ended up going back to that project so many times, I could just do j projectA
and get there from anywhere. “Why not use a symlink?” I hear you say. Well it’s because I often have to go to projectB or another which was in another really nested dir. Or I needed to jump to another directory which was equally as nested, and only had to use it frequently for like a week or so. Making and deleting symlinks all the time wasn’t practical. Not to mention some software doesn’t properly follow symlinks
Have you looked into Autojump? It works with bash and zsh and is even faster than using a terminal file manager if you’ve already visited the directory before
What do you mean? You can always use a distro like Steam OS (or any other Linux distro) on any x86 PC and still use a mouse and keyboard. Or use a Steam Deck and plug in a mouse and keyboard.
