Here's the thing: Apple's design you'll find that they carefully included an extra margin between the "Don't Save" and "Cancel" buttons. This avoid accidental clicks on the wrong button so that people don't lose their work when they just want to click "Cancel".
And gnome has those dialogs in a different colour to achieve easily noticable differentiation between the two options
That same logic could be applied for the save and discard button. Should there be a bigger gap between them lest somebody misclick and discard things instead of saving them¿? Atleast in the case where they accidentally click cancel instead of discard, they are not losing any data.
Hell if this really about data safety, discard/don't save should be the isolated button because it is the only destructive option
Well fitts law doesnt mention anything about asymmetrical spacing anywhere. Infact going by fitts law, the new gnome design is great because the hitboxes are pretty large
Can you share any study for this. If this is true, it is fascinating and worth looking into in more depth
So let me get this straight. My county banned most of the popular porn sites because of the negative influence it can have on the populace but has such a poorly written and enforced law that people who possess and watch CSAM are deemed to be not breaking the law. What the actual fuck is going on here. This is a dangerous precedent being set here and I can only hope that supreme court overrules the case and holds the guy guilty.
It is the nuclear power vs fossil fuels vs renewables debate all over again. Nuclear is much greener than fossil fuels but comes with its own challenges regarding cost, safety and waste disposal. Renewable energy like solar, wind and hydro are better than nuclear but the point is that nuclear and renewables are not enemies rather they are allies who have to band together to beat fossil fuels.
Public transport is like renewables, the best solution but one which needs time because years of underdevelopment and under-funding means that they are not as developed as they should be.
EVs are like nuclear. Not the perfect solution but have the capability to serve areas and use cases that public transport (renewables) can't. There are issues like them costing more than the alternatives and that the disposal of waste produced by both is a problem with an unsatisfactory solution.
ICE vehicles are like fossil fuel energy plants. The worst of the worst with regards to their effect on the planet. Their only advantage is that they offer convenience.
So I think we should stop the narrative that EVs(nuclear) are bad because the are not the best solution at hand but rather combine increasing adoption of both EV(nuclear) and public transport (renewables) to combat the true threat that is ICE(fossil fuel energy plants).
As for discover wanting to restart to do their update, that's a fedora thing for an extra level of safety while updating
That shouldn't trigger for flatpaks though. No risk of breaking the system while updating flatpaks
You have got to be the biggest promoter of immutable distros on lemmy.
Good job though. While there are some pain points with immutable distros, i feel they are great for the casual users who will just browse the web, play some games and maybe do some document reading and editing.
Well for Firefox, the one getting updated is the native rpm version which is part of the standard Silverblue install while the one already updated is the flatpak version. The native version is just called 'Firefox' while the one from flatpak is called 'Firefox Web Browser' if I remember correctly. I have no idea why signal is showing up there. Maybe it is a bug.
Also next time a system update is shown in GNOME software, check using rpm-ostree status to see if any updated image is staged. If yes, then you don't have to bother with gnome software - when you shutdown or reboot, the update will automatically be applied.
(͡•_ ͡• )
Which core Unix principles though¿?
No way pop os will ship with snaps. System76 devs have already said they prefer flatpak
Wow. I was not expecting this especially considering that feature freeze was in place for gnome 46.
Tigers are fairly common household pets in places like India
Are you sure this statement is true¿? I never heard about any story of anybody having a fucking tiger as a pet
Flathub does provide
warning like system.
I don't think we can filter using these though
You don't have to worry. The folks at fedora have decided that the X11 session will remain in fedora 40 so you will be able to use X11 if you still face issues in wayland.
Edit : I was not clear enough. Want I mean to say is that the kwin-x11 and other required packages will be part of the fedora repo and people can just download them to enable the plasma-X11 session
My experience has been positive so far on a laptop with RDNA1 graphics(5500m). There is no true graphics switching. The iGPU is responsible for drawing things on the screen. What it does is offload heavy rendering tasks to the dGPU and then draws the rendered output provided to it by the dGPU. This leads to a small performance penalty but gives graphics switching on laptops without dedicated hardware to enable it.
So all in all, hybrid graphics works well in laptops with an AMD dGPU. I would argue the experience is better than the one in windows.
The bottles flatpak is the official release so people not on an arch based system can/should use that
Well @Guenther_Amanita@feddit.de suggested bazzite as it is the image built for gamers and OP is asking about nobara which is also packaged specifically for gamers. In general though all the ublue images are great
but I would really prefer native if there is the opportunity.
This only makes sense if the native port is better. In the witcher 2, I get better graphics and performance when playing through proton instead of using native. And there are certain games with 'native' ports which don't even run and just crash.
I have heard about wealthy people all over the world keeping big cats as pets but those are always kept in cages or their own enclosures. What seems wrong is you claiming that regular people are keeping tigers as pet. Infact people and tigers are more in conflict due to encroachment of humans into formerly forested areas.
I think the argument is that since it not the default and not visible in the fedora landing page, the kde spin gets less coverage and hence people are more likely to come across and use the fedora workstation in favour of the kde spin.
I think evince will be eventually dropped by GNOME but there is time for that. While papers is porting things to GTK4 and adding some great features, it still has a long way to go in performance and optimisation. Currently it is more than twice as slow to open a pdf when compared to evince. Also scrolling performance is not optimised as it will stop mid scroll for things to render. Well it is only a new project so hopefully all this will be fixed. I am still using papers so that I can report any bugs that I run into
Or what his fascist friends like.
Wine doesn't allow donations from my country. Is there anyway to get around this restriction¿?
Entirely possible
Jen said. “We all just hope that we get through this pregnancy unscathed.”
Something that I never thought regular people who are having a baby would have to say/think.
There is enough money to fund both EVs and public transit. No need to cut money from one to give to the other. We should take this money from the funding for military or religious purposes.
According to several estimates, the guy is nowhere close to being a billionaire
includes all the extensions I want
This is what people dont get. Different DEs best serve different people. We should always push to have a better experience but sniping between DEs makes no sense
I guaranfuckingtee you that if Israel gets glassed by its numerous opponents in the Middle East because America held up aid over Gaza.
I don't see how america holding up aid will instantly result in Israel getting glassed. It should be theoretically feasible to stop aid to Israel unless a) Israel stops its murderous campaign in Gaza or b) Israel comes under attack from a non Palestinian country. Unless Israel will fall within a few days, the US should be able to back them in case of an attack even though aid was previously being held back.
While this is true, several core elements of pop os 22.04 continue to receive updates. The kernel, pipewire, Firefox, etc. all continue to receive updates to modernish versions. It is not an ignored distro by any means
This is not a fix though. This is some sleep related issue that even I faced in my laptop for the mt7922 wifi card. Ensure that fast boot is disabled in the bios. Also all the kernels since 6.2(I think¿?) have patched this issue so you should not be facing this issue now. I no longer face it.
Edit : though in my case, it was only WiFi which was not working because the mt7922 kernel module was failing to load at startup. If this issue occurs again, post the output of journalctl so we can see what the exact issue is.
So I see people on the phoronix forums complaining that this is a bad thing because they have TVs which are HDMI only. From what I read, the HDMI 2.1+ spec is only needed to support extreme cases like 4k@120Hz and above. So my question is how many people are there who have a TV old enough to have no display ports but be of that outrageous specification.
Edit : it seems I am mistaken in thinking that new TVs have display port.
I suggest rebasing to ublue. https://universal-blue.org/images/
Packages from rpmfusion (codecs, mesa-freeworld) are all added to the base layer of silverblue so shit works ootb
Unfortunately that is way too expensive for me at this moment. Maybe I will buy it when I am a little better off money wise
I am confused a little. The space taken by silver blue increased by around 3 gigs but the space taken by workstation increased by 4 gigs. So flatpak actually resulted in less space being used the apps. Is this some sort of faulty space usage reporting¿?
At today's FESCo meeting, we agreed on the following proposal:
AGREED: KDE packages which reintroduce support for X11 are allowed in the main Fedora repositories, however they may not be included by default on any release-blocking deliverable (ISO, image, etc.). The KDE SIG should provide a notice before major changes, but is not responsible for ensuring that these packages adapt. Upgrades from F38 and F39 will be automatically migrated to Wayland. (+5, 0, -1)
For additional clarification: this means that all users performing upgrades MUST be migrated to the Wayland session. They then MAY opt-in to the X11 session by installing a package for that purpose. We are explicitly not providing detailed technical implementation requirements here, but we expect all parties to follow the spirit of this decision when making technical decisions.
You can turn it off somewhere in the settings
Currently, gnome has moved away from eye of Gnome to Image Viewer/Loupe. The website doesn't have the dependencies though I don't think you should need the gnome-desktop package. Perhaps you can look into it. Just be aware that the app is pretty barebones for now.
Edit - Alternatively, you could look into gwenview which is normally shipped in kde. That will have the advantage of shipping with a lot more editing options and since it is a more mature(I think is the right word) project, I expect it to have better support for esoteric file formats.
