Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this video. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one video. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW

There are people who have disabilities that prevent or make it hard to drink without a straw, for example, they have shaky hands and would spill their drink otherwise.

Actually, PulseEffects has been renamed into EasyEffects and is PipeWire only now

I learned to dab while sneezing back when the meme wasn't dead yet. I got so used to it, that I do that to this day. At least my palms are clean

Ventoy is a godsend in that case. If you have a big enough USB stick, you can just put all distros you wanna try on it

How is it progressing so fast compared to Servo? Isn't Servo being developed for a longer time?

No, I think they meant that you get better resource usage when you install an app as a Flatpak instead of a system package. You get the same benefit in a traditional distro too, if you use Flatpaks, it's just that immutable distros kind of force you to use them.

Yes, I want the most for Firefox to be twice as slow as my current browser (Firefox/Fennec)

A pop-up with a message "This website uses cookies to function. The compliance people asked us to tell you."

Really? How am I supposed to trust these guys with my data, when they show me a pop-up like that? I guess that this data is anonymous only because otherwise the telemetry would need to be opt-out… oh wait, they explicitly said that:

That said, Fedora Legal has determined that if we collect any personally-identifiable data, the entire metrics system must be opt-in. Since we are only interested in opt-out metrics due to the low value of opt-in metrics, we must accordingly never collect any personally-identifiable data.

Is it about restoring window position and size?

Heh, I thought about blocking them like a thousand times, but they are sometimes sharing neutral or interesting information so I'm just trying to ignore this type of comments

I didn't see it until I read your comment

Wait, when did they do that? I remember when some EA comment broke a downvote record

But remember to always use an incognito window and close it afterwards when using someone else's computer!

Even when you don't know the language, you can judge if something is an ad just by an overly excited tone of voice. I wonder if someone has tried writing an ad detection algorithm already. It would still be a lot heavier on resources than SponsorBlock.

Simple Calendar Pro is pretty awesome

I registered during very early days, so I signed up for the instance run by devs because there wasn't much choice. Today I would choose a smaller one

I remember seeing ads for this service in Poland: https://www.pocztakwiatowa.pl/en. I never used it though

I thought for a minute that Linux now panics when trying to play DRM'd content

They are writing a search engine from scratch

They are using Google and a few other engines, but unlike Searx, they are using the official API instead of scraping, which is a big part of costs

Not everyone has fast and reliable internet connection

There is a Polish website https://kalkulatorkuchenny.pl/, where you type, say, 1 teaspoon of sugar (łyżeczka cukru) and it will convert it to mass, volume, spoon and number of glasses. I'm pretty sure, there is an English language alternative, but didn't find any

Achtung

Zephyr is an actual operating system, but it's not Linux

Downvoted for posting news? Really?

I've never seen shitposting used like in this definition. It's just making low effort posts

LaTeX and ConTeXt are both macros for TeX. LyX is a graphical editor which outputs LaTeX.

If it is free as in beer, but not as in freedom, and is developed by a company, then what is their business model?

It's a tool (and protocol, I think) for managing displays in X11. It's displayed among two Windows tools in the Protonfixes changelog.

Mine has a little crooked eyes and a wrinkled finish at the bottom, but at least he looks like no other :).

BTW did we use the same pattern?

I always bind compose key to right logo key on Linux. Then I can enter interrobang by pressing right logo, exclamation mark and question mark.

You have entrance lanes on the left‽ 😳

  • Fish. Much, much saner defaults.
  • I am writing #!/usr/bin/env sh for dead simple scripts, so they will be a tiny bit more portable and run a tiny bit faster. The lack of arrays causes too much pain in longer scripts. I would love to use Fish, but it lacks a strict mode.
  • No, why would I?
  • I used to share all my dotfiles, scripts included, but I was too afraid that I would publish some secrets someday, so I stopped doing that. For synchronizing commands, aliases and other stuff between computers I use Chezmoi.
  • To use Fish instead of fighting with start up time of Zsh with hundreds of plugins
  • Always use the so-called "strict mode" in Bash, that is, the set -euo pipefail line. It will make Bash error on non-zero exit code, undefined variables and non-zero exit codes in commands in pipe. Also, always use shellcheck. It's extremely easy to make a mistake in Bash. If you want to check the single command exit code manually, just wrap it in set +e and set -e.
  • Consider writing your scripts in Python. Like Bash, it also has some warts, but is multiplatform and easy to read. I have a snippet which contains some boilerplate like a main function definition with ArgumentParser instantiated. Then at the end of the script the main function is called wrapped in try … except KeyboardInterrupt: exit(130) which should be a default behavior.
  • Absolutely not a bad practice. If you need to use them on a remote server and can't remember what they stand for, you can always execute type some_command. Oh, and read about abbreviations in Fish. It always expands the abbreviation, so you see what you execute.

Sounds similar to direct democracy.

Nice, lemmy.ml changed part of the link to *removed* and now it won't load…
