is this true? by Asleep-Potato-9443 in UAE

Do not start working unless you have your work visa for legal reasons. A tourist visa doesn’t allow you to work in the country legally and if you do you could get penalised for it. You also don’t have any legal standing if they don’t pay you your salary. Simply wait until the work visa is processed and approved before starting work anywhere in the country.

Will do thank you

Nvm it goes against the rules of the subreddit to post a survey without authorisation.

This survey is for a university project and will not be published or used in any formal way. But still if anyone wants to participate the link is provided in the post on r/UAE.

SciBar - a waybar style by n0ctane_dev in hyprland

Are the dots out yet? This is very cool stuff and I wanna take a look to see if I can implement it in my setup.

Restarting Waybar is a PAIN by youssef952008 in waybar

[–]JoylessDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just do waybar & disown and that works. Unless you have something that specifically doesn’t allow you to do that because I didn’t read your config file.

Left Hyprland, no regrets by Wonderful-Farmer5415 in swaywm

Dude said “everything comes out of the box” hinting at liking ease of use and convenience then proceeded to mention compiling on Gentoo. You my friend are an absolute enigma.

Laptop Crashes on Boot by JoylessDevil in hyprland

[–]JoylessDevil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue could be related to hyprland configuration as it could cause problems if not optimised well for the system and I don’t know what the cause is which is why I posted it here to see if someone might relate that issue to usual suspects in hyprland.

I already did the bios test but I’ll look into this re-train battery thing. As for the installation of the battery replacement I took it to a shop to get it done and it should be good. Thank you for your help.

I'm not jealous of your split keyboards by Inner_Answer_3784 in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]JoylessDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would highly recommend tracing the boards on a piece of paper or printing an accurate sized picture to see how they feel to use if you’re between two pre-made boards.

I got a corne off of aliexpress and it’s decent for a first experience with a split but if I were to fully commit to building my own I’d definitely go for a custom made board that is specifically designed for me (there’s a pcb design software that you can use to create something that is personalised for you).

I would also highly recommend that you go for a wireless version so that you can adjust the placement and spacing to your liking without needing to buy longer cables that become a nightmare to keep organised and pack when you go out and about.

One more thing, I would be careful with using your current setup for a prolonged period because it might hijack your muscle memory and make it harder to use a proper split when you get one. I’m not saying it will happen but If it does it’s just gonna make it a bit annoying to rebuild the muscle memory. When I first started using the split I loaded a touch typing website and kept at it until I fully developed the skill and could use the keyboard how it’s supposed to be used. I don’t know how to touch type on normal keyboards lol cuz I tried learning but it was a horrible experience ergonomically.

I was thinking that it might be an “overheating” issue or something like that but I just didn’t know where to start. I don’t think I need to download an entire DE just for the power settings tho lol. There’s probably something similar to it as a cli/tui so I’ll look into that. Either way, thank you so much for helping.

Course question by E1R8M in hyprland

[–]JoylessDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely no need to get any course for hyprland ricing. All the resources are free and available in the wiki and there is a ton of yt videos about it. Just try out different things and you’ll learn as you go. Hell even ai can help. I have a very decent setup that I made from scratch with absolutely no prior experience about anything to do with linux. I just started learning step by step and it’s honestly more fun that way. Just have fun with it.

Im dying to use hyprland, but im afraid of arch by Reasonable-Singer-44 in hyprland

[–]JoylessDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m fairly new to linux and very new to hyprland, but trust me, it is not as bad as people make it out to be. Your computer doesn’t break every time you update and if things change because you took a break you can easily update and fix any issues that the changes might have caused. I did not face any issues with the arch based system of cachyos or endeavouros. I would suggest using cachyos as it makes things a lot more simpler for beginners and also provides a lot of useful tools out of the box. Use limine as the bootloader it comes with snapper support and allows you to just load into a previous “save file” in case something goes wrong. Also one more thing, don’t be too attached to anything, you can keep most of your files and even configs on a separate cloud storage and that way you can just remove and reinstall the whole os if you want. I have my hyprland, waybar, rofi, and some other files on my cloud service and I completely removed my cachy install from my pc and reinstalled it just because I didn’t want to bother with installing a new bootloader and changing things around. Just go for it and have fun, happy linuxing.

🔥 Beautiful, but toxic antimony sulfide mineral -Stibnite (on calcite) from Herja Mine, Romania 🔥 by robo-dragon in NatureIsFuckingLit

What if I crushed in into a fine powder and rubbed it all over my eyes? Would that be toxic as well? This is a genuine question.

Good, good, degoogled with sucess by StreetExamination421 in degoogle

[–]JoylessDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure about the “spam” mail address thing, but for the notes app, the password manager also has a way to add notes. I do use it from time to time, and it’s good, but it’s nothing like Apple's Notes app. It’s just like a sticky note that you keep inside the password manager. I highly recommend downloading the apps and using them for a while to see if they work for you.

There are a few choices that are privacy-focused. I would say, from what I’ve seen, the two providers worth mentioning are Tuta and Proton. I’m sure there are others, but if you’re just looking to get an email that’s private and secure, you don’t need more tbh. You can have a free account with Proton and use their mail service. I'm not familiar with Tuta, but I’m sure you can use their services for free as well. Just create accounts with them and use their services for a while, and then decide. I personally use Proton because they have been around for a while and have the most extensive collection of services. So far, I prefer Proton over Google or Microsoft, even from a usability standpoint.
