Tldr: It's just better compression

Firefox also has a built-in list of user agent overrides for websites that don't work on Firefox for no reason.

You can create an issue here, and maybe they'll fix it at some point. Not sure what the normal turnaround is for fixes like this though, could take a while.

You can see the list in about:compat btw

Based on everything we learned about coreboot, we think you can port a laptop board in 40 hours or less. There are tools that you can use to dump most of the code you need. For instance, the GPIO can be done in 30 minutes, as opposed to the 30-50 hours that was quoted by several developers.

OK, so why didn't you just port it yourself in 40 hours? Apparently it's super easy.

+1 for ventoy. With that you can just flash ventoy on it once, then copy iso's over to the usb drive without reformatting or reflashing anything.

Did they say that? Cause it looks like there is at least some work being done on this:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1882872

If you find any websites that don't work with firefox, you should report them to Mozilla. Firefox has a list of known bad websites, and has fixes for them, usually just a user agent override.

I think we're looking up at a drinks dispenser, one where you push your cup against the metal thing to start filling.

There’s no indication that any of the apps were available through Google Play.

So it's just users installing untrusted apps to their phone?

scour infected phones for text messages, contacts, and all stored images

They also can't do that without the user explicitly giving the app permission to do those things, unless they found an exploit or something, but the article doesn't say that.

Also, why would you have images with passwords in them on your phone anyway?

People really should know better nowadays than to do any of this shit. Every step here is preventable by the user just thinking about what they're really doing.

I mean I'm not worried about anything, I'm just not going to buy it.

I'm not sure about the others, but I'm pretty sure Hitman isn't linux native.

As far as I can find on protondb, neither are Deus Ex or Tomb Raider.

I've never had any issues running those games through Proton though, so that's great.

Definitely, but unfortunately TV's don't usually have DP.

But don't you have to first wait minutes, then hours, then days etc. before you finally get to 10 years? That's some dedixated toddler

Why would you downvote a video you haven't even watched

That's actually pretty simple to do. I don't know if this is how they did it, but one way is just creating an tag with the href to google.com. that'll show the destination if you hover over it. Then you just add an event listener to the click event, prevent the default event from executing, and manually redirect somewhere else.

Made a quick example: https://codepen.io/Ghoelian/pen/poXeOyo

Your script uses gh, which I think is the github cli, to clone a repository.

It would be easier for most people to just do a git clone git@github.com:umlaeute/v4l2loopback (or git clone https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback). I don't really understand why you'd use gh for something as simple as a clone tbh.

There's also web push. You can send push notifications straight to someone's browser, no need for a dedicated app anymore. Not sure if patreon has implemented this, but they could if they wanted to.

The people that keep saying that should really just try to use a 144+hz monitor for a while. Surely they'll be able to notice the difference as well.

Yeah just wish it would show the verified status in the cli, that's the only reason I still go to the website

Protons spam filter is really good in my experience as well, and you can also use your own domain.

The only downside so far imo is that you can't just add it as an imap or pop3 server to any mail client, you have to use their apps or host their bridge somewhere. Something to do with their e2ee I think.

I'm personally not a huge fan of the ones in the power button, they never worked very reliably in my experience. Even worse than the under-screen ones usually.

I'd love to see phones with a fingerprint sensor on the back though. Granted I have pretty big hands and could easily reach it. Always worked reliably for me, and on my oneplus 5t i could even set actions to swipes on the fingerprint sensor.

tl;dr: bcachefs dev sent in a massive pull request, linus thinks it's too big and touches too much other code for the current state of the release cycle, dev says his filesystem is the future and should just be merged

Nothing prevents you drom installing a linux os on an android phone, provided someone made a rom for your device. It's just not very useable due to proprietary drivers. Ubuntu touch exists for example, but on most phones you can't even use the cellular antenna iirc

Exactly what they're describing lol

Doesn't really work when 99% of posts are marked undetermined.

This is a native android feature since 13 I think. It's disabled by default though, you can enable it in the notification settings.

(not a designer myself btw)

Isn't design language mainly used to describe general things about how a design should work?

Take Material for example. Material itself is a design language, telling you how far apart certain click targets should be, how big text should be, stuff like that, to make a generally useable UI. It doesn't tell you what shape or what colour your button should be, that's up to the implementation, like Material UI, to decide, which is what I would call the general design.

Just fyi, that is not Fedora workstation, thats a Fedora atomic spin, which is an immutable os. Installing packages and updating works a bit different than a normal distro.

Could you not already do that? My previous bank had their own nfc payments bullshit, but I've always been able to set that as my default.

I'm pretty sure KDE's window manager, kwin, can do all of those things through kwin scripts and window rules, except the pager doesn't show the details of windows on other desktops, just the outline.

I haven't used them, but wouldn't those be way heavier than PBT keycaps? I'd imagine they would actually affect the actuation force, but I wonder if it's enough to be noticeable.

They look pretty nice, but looks like they don't include a split spacebar, so not for me unfortunately.

Just press volume down once and it'll stop ringing without actually hanging up. I think that works on pretty much any smartphone.

If you just want it to auto-start at login, you could create a symlink from the .desktop file to ~/.config/autostart.

Something like ln ~/.local/applications/spotify.desktop ~/.config/autostart (or ln /usr/share/applications/spotify.desktop ~/.config/autostart if that's where it installed to).

I believe most DE's will pick this up automatically.

Isn't light pollution like that just illegal?

Edit: In the US, it is in some states, though not all. Haven't found a source for Europe yet.

Yeah but on PC you usually get graphics settings you can tune to whatever you like. I'd personally rather have a slightly worse looking game running at 60+fps, than a beautiful one at 30.

Sure, but typically you can only get contacts in specific strengths (increments of 10 as the other person said), while they can grind the glasses lenses to pretty much anything. So you usually get a different prescription for contacts.

It doesn't according to LG's product page at least.

Also, wtf is this spec:

Also, even on laptops/desktops this might not always be possible depending on the bios configuration. Corporate devices for example might have the bios and booting from untrusted media locked down.

I'd say 60+fps is especially necessary for first-person games. I seriously have issues making out objects and other things when looking around first-person at 30fps.
