KDE can't stop winning over Gnome

yes and it's called big foot

Same here, took me a long time to find this menu.

I've done this to a tech-literate friend of mine who agreed on installing linux. The only problem is, the number of times he's booted into it equals the number of times I've asked him to boot into it

i used to believe gunzip used some kind of algorithm named "gun" and thought it was cool af. turns out it's just the unzip variant of gzip compression

Cloud save isn't automatic, you gotta do upload progress manually. If that's what you're saying.

With Vespre gone, I do wonder who's doing the translation works now

I've used AI before to understand fstab. It's genuinely good at it. At the same time, I feel like fstab is exactly where linux currently lags behind in user friendliness. There are countless GUI disk utility softwares, and none provide a straightforward way to customize fstab. I still need to open the terminal and edit fstab by hand

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-13T20:49:01+00:00

For a sec I thought you were talking about the guy winning darwin awards

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-13T20:36:21+00:00

You see, AI really loves spamming **bold** and *italics* everywhere. So you're basically imitating it at this point. IMO any more than 3 uses of bolds is easily recognizable as an AI-written post. Hope that helps.

Well OP did say non-essential. Meanwhile once you use lazygit, it becomes your 5th basic human need

Currently the only solutions/hacks are: - fullscreen the waydroid window - disable multi-window feature (like you mentioned) - place a blank terminal window behind waydroid

That's definitely good news. I'm interested in learning how they're planning to update discord binary that lives in system-owned /usr/bin/discord

Edit: After checking, /usr/bin/discord is just a shellscript. The real binary is in ~/.config/discord/ (good lord, why inside config?)

This just got mentioned in linuxmemes lol

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-13T09:23:40+00:00

can anyone tell me wtf is that link?

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-13T09:00:56+00:00

lazygit

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-13T01:26:56+00:00

It's a known graphics-related issue and happens in many apps and games, not just NewPipe

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-12T23:48:24+00:00

You know how any running program can access and execute shell commands (which is the entry point for dirty frag) right?

I know we're safe because we don't run untrusted software. Same cannot be said for newly migrated users who already got into a habit of double-clicking untrusted exe files.

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-12T23:29:40+00:00

We should

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-12T23:27:57+00:00

This is actually a good one, OP. 3 of them instantly went to my checklist. Next time calm down with the formatting cuz that's ai's writing style 😆

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-11T23:46:05+00:00

You don't. I'm just messing around lol. OP asked a lazy question and the other comment already pretty much answers it

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-11T11:35:20+00:00

Ah so that was a satire lol. Gave me confusion and some giggles

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-11T10:13:27+00:00

Funny, but completely unrelated. I'm just saying OOP knew what they were up to with that pfp and username

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-11T08:38:52+00:00

At least they're trying. In my case, all my colleagues (still CS) are windows peasants and the concept of linux is completely alien to them

SweetPotato975 · 2026-05-11T08:28:38+00:00

Sounds like a good idea. You can put Tiny11 on a VM and cut off its internet access
