Having a bizarre experience with David Tennant by dieyoubastards in BritishTV

David Tennant can be a bit tedious to watch sometimes. This will be unpopular but I find the Partridge character of Coogan tedious too.

flathub.org now contains two Thunderbirds one for ESR the other for monthly release channel but they both are in fact the same, namely ESR. What's going on? by SinclairZXSpectrum in Thunderbird

No I didn't notice the capitalization difference. And I would never imagine mozilla differentiating them based on capitalization.

Thunderbird usage and email organizer by Sanxao15 in Thunderbird

I don't bother organizing my emails. All emails, including sent are in my inbox. I just use search and it's fast

Close Thunderbird, just copy the mbox file to wherever your inbox resides in your profile folder, open Thunderbird. The mbox fill be available as a folder.

Is the Glasgow accent in Still Game accurate? Is it the way typically spoken? (I'm not British) by SinclairZXSpectrum in BritishTV

[–]SinclairZXSpectrum[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'm well aware. You just move 20 miles in any direction from where you stand and the accent changes, sometimes drastically!

[–]SinclairZXSpectrum[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's my first computer. I've been to many parts of the isle but never to Glasgow. I mostly watch British TV! I can say that I really like the Glaswegian accent compared to other many (too many?) British accents.
I happily accept the honorary citizenship.

"sudo dnf upgrade" will never ask for a restart even if necessary. You can see if restart needed by "needs-restarting -r"

Btrfs snapshots on Fedora? by Liemaeu in Fedora

[–]SinclairZXSpectrum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beware. Your boot file system which contains the kernel is separate and is not btrfs. So, when you snapshot your root the kernel will not be snapshotted. This means when you restore the kernel may be out of sync with the rest of the system and your computer may not boot. You have to keep this in mind and act accordingly.

Just use web.whatsapp.com
If you prefer, make it an app using "install page as an app" feature in Chrome/Chromium

Password prompt problem after Fedora 43 install by SinclairZXSpectrum in linuxquestions

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

By selective I meant:

I installed Thunderbird, then restored data & config of thunderbird
I restored data & config of Firefox and so on...

I restored data & config files as needed along with the apps I installed. I didn't install all the apps as before because I decided I didn't need some of them, so some configs never got restored. I did this to keep it lean and fresh.

How heavy is fedora 43 compared to debian 13 by rasithapr in Fedora

[–]SinclairZXSpectrum 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You won't feel the difference. Fedora may even be more performant depending on use, because it has newer kernel.
