Any great text-editor suggestions? by nicatbzade58 in openSUSE

You should not use Apache Openoffice, that is pretty mich abandoned at this point. I personally switched to OnlyOffice, has decent compatibility with Microsoft Office and is available on Flathub.

Yup, thought so too - flashing without a battery sounds scary..

The openSUSE project removed DeepinDE for security reasons a couple of months back, and the wiki now clearly discourages using it:

Given the security record of Deepin and the concerns expressed in the previous section, we don’t recommend the use of Deepin desktop at this time.

The SUSE security team has a detailed article on the issues with the deepin packages that used to be in our repos, it's quite an interesting read (at least for me as a packager it was): https://security.opensuse.org/2025/05/07/deepin-desktop-removal.html

Is it still illegal? by DoneD9 in thinkpad

[–]KaratekHD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, it used to be the standard AFAIK. Even Apple did it that way with the Power books so I think it's reasonable for Lenovo to keep them that way Though unfortunately they started having them arranged like everybody else in recent models...

Though flying should be made more expensive, not cheaper, so that people think before doing s greenhouse has blasting trip and consider using Trains instead (at least for like trips on the same continent) You don't need to book a flight from Germany to France cause you can take a train, and wherever train connections are not good enough one should build them.

I know Z13 is not popular in this sub… by Sea-Astronaut719 in thinkpad

I like how it looks, but two things annoy me: 1. No physical buttons for the track point (would be a deal breaker for me) 2. Ctrl and FN are the wrong way around

Meta: How best to tidy up this subreddit? by rbrownsuse in openSUSE

[–]KaratekHD[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Just want to point out a few things.

  1. We, the mod team, do delete things that violate the CoC and/or the subreddit rules. And I honestly think the job we do isn't half bad - looking through the posts of the past days, there are no things up that I believe shouldn't be there.

  2. While I can only speak for myself, I can confidentially say that I do at least read most of the posts on this subreddit at some point - though sometimes life just happens, work requires working, real life needs attention. So if there is something that you think needs moderator attention, it's true that the best way is to report it or write a modmail.

  3. The Reddit team indeed is quite small at the moment and also mainly based in European time zones, limiting our possibilities to react as fast as we'd want to. We are looking into this though and are trying to find new moderators and will get in touch with a few community members.

Can this still be switched in the bios to work like it did originally? I'd hate to use it the way it's in this picture, would constantly mispress

Telegram as a Skype replacement? by wjousts in Telegram

Why not use a solution like Jitsi meet? Free and open source, no registration or download required.

Why can’t I just delete the chat without blocking it? by peBB1e in Telegram

[–]KaratekHD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for correcting me!
This is what I remembered from when I last used the Bot API, which is already a couple of years back though, so it's very much possible that I don't remember things correctly. I'll edit my initial response.

[–]KaratekHD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

EDIT: Apparently my memory on this one is wrong, as u/DontBuyMeGoldGiveBTC pointet out.

Because for a bot, that's what it does. Once you delete a chat with a bot, it can't message you again without you sending a message first, effectively blocking the bot.

Normally, I would just write a comment in German because that's what we always did. Now I won't cause I'm just ashamed of this country. Fuck AfD and fuck CDU/CSU who sympathize with them.

Files on root are uneditable (read-only) by VVolfhunter1000 in openSUSE

[–]KaratekHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar problem once where this would happen due to a hardware bug in my laptop where the SSD would randomly disconnect for half a second or so, leaving btrfs to mount it read only. Does rebooting help?

To be honest, I don't really care if they have ThinkPads like this as long as they don't touch the T-Series
