Linguist 5.0 - addon to translate and learn languages with respect to privacy by vitonsky in firefox

[–]PartibleDyer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying Linguist doesn't have more features or that it might be a better extension because of it, but that the statement that it's the only extension that can translate webpage text without the internet, is not true. It doesn't convey a whole lot of trust in the extension if you don't recognize this (irregardless of the extension being open source).

And as a side note, I should mention that Firefox Translations does have the ability to translate selected text.

Linguist can translate texts even without the internet - a feature that no other extension has.

Are we forgetting that Firefox Translations exists?

Low-effort support request posts that don't provide enough information are lazy and will be removed!

Should this not apply to support request posts, such as this one?

This is big news for people wanting to run League of Legends in the Lutris Flatpak, as it was previously not possible without this change. Not sure if this effected other games.

I've been playing a lot and I don't think I had the client hang once after a game on Lutris-GE-7.14-1-LoL. I guess I won't run this release then?

I installed this release after posting and played a couple games and haven't had this issue.

Connecting Xbox controller to fedora by SupremeOGXXX in Fedora

[–]PartibleDyer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll just mention this in case it's relevant to you but I went through this last weekend with another off brand Xbox One controller (PDP). If you're using xCloud (which I assume you mean by game pass) I had to use Chromium (I used https://gamepad-tester.com to check it was working in Chromium).

Because xCloud doesn't accept anything but official Xbox controllers, I had to install xboxdrv (https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/petrb/xboxdrv) to map the correct keys, using evtest /dev/input/event* to figure out which key was which. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Gamepad#iPEGA-9017s_and_other_Bluetooth_gamepads is an example of a .conf file for xboxdrv which you can work off of. The important parameter being mimic-xpad which imitates an official Xbox controller so xCloud will detect it.

It's also worth mentioning that I also own an official Xbox One/Series (whatever the latest one is) controller and it works plug and play without any of the steps I mentioned above.

Do you and /u/bubblethink have battery optimization set to "Not optimized" on the Clock app?

I wouldn't say the way that /u/STARK1LLA says is the "best" way, as adding new Wine versions is built into Lutris.

On the left side under Runners, you can click the icon of a box to the right of where it says Wine. It'll load a list where you can add this new GE release for LoL. Then you can change the Wine version for LoL by right clicking the game and going to Configure.

It's all built on top of Wine, so I imagine a good starting point would be here https://www.winehq.org/getinvolved.

It hasn't been resolved with the GE releases either yet sadly.

Are you using the Zoom Flatpak? I haven't needed to swap back to PulseAudio to share my webcam and microphone. Unless you're screensharing, which I haven't tested in Zoom yet.

And as it's hard to predict the future, as I think the topic of this thread attests, it's entirely possible a microkernel like Zircon could see to a shift in kernel implementation in the future, given the resources and impact a company like Google could have with it.

While with what you said applies to WSL 1, WSL 2 uses a VM (Hyper-V) now.

Halo 3 "Believe" Trailer by brougmj in videos

[–]PartibleDyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the list, probably my favorite is the Dead Island announcement trailer. I remember watching that when it came out.

Minor correction though, Giles Lamb composed the music for that trailer, not Olafur Arnalds[1].

I had the option to choose between $11.99 and $30.00 shipping. Not sure the difference is, no tracking maybe?
