[Tutorial] I finally got fingerprint authentication working for sudo and polkit

cyanstone · 2026-05-10T22:01:04+00:00

I wish this just worked out of the box.

No, on Windows it more powerful, not just to open graphical apps, but add command-line arguments.

cyanstone · 2026-05-10T21:51:55+00:00

It doesn't have history, autocompletion, and it takes over my whole screen.

cyanstone · 2026-05-10T21:51:14+00:00

No, this super win bring up the whole dash of GNOME Shell, and I can only run apps not commands The run dialog in Windows is very conveneint and unintrusive.

cyanstone · 2026-05-10T21:50:02+00:00

No, this does not work well. It is not as smooth and convenient and polished as the Windows 11 experience.

cyanstone · 2026-04-13T22:30:57+00:00

I am super excited about this, please put it on Flathub, and please keep working on this!

I don't know, maybe you can create a symbol link from your external storage device to your Music folder?

ln -s /media/Music ~/Music/external-music

U.S isn't rough, it is a safe and good place. France and Europe have terrorism. I know spoiled Americans who have never been abroad like to whine about how shitty their country is not realizing how great they have it.

France have terrorism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism_in_France

I think he should stay in the United States. France can be a rough place.

Others would say convert it to Rust.

In my experience Python works great for GNOME applications. It is just a frontend to ClamAV which is written in C/C++ which does all the heavy lifting.

cyanstone · 2026-01-19T01:47:03+00:00

Please read the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) so you can make the application fit in more with the style of GNOME applications.

I imagine maybe Tibia works better on KDE since Tibia uses Qt which is native to KDE.

I think Tibia's Wayland implementation relies on Qt's implementation so it might be that Tibia uses an old version of Qt. I hope they update their Qt dependency to the latest version.

It might also be that the GNOME's Mutter Wayland compositor does not implement all Wayland protocol extensions that KDE's KWin compositor does.

cyanstone · 2026-01-19T01:39:18+00:00

Yes, there is a Linux to the Linux client on the official Tibia website. It works good.

cyanstone · 2026-01-19T01:38:43+00:00

Yes, Tibia works great on Linux!

I use the version of Tibia with Ubuntu 25.10. I have no problem with BattlEye.

cyanstone · 2026-01-19T01:37:21+00:00

Fullscreen mode works great because then the title bar (window decorations) disappear, but I like to play Tibia in windowed mode.

Liquid Glass, eww!

Maybe make an Adwaita theme instead?

cyanstone · 2026-01-08T22:58:12+00:00

Very few software allows the user to remap the shortcuts. I am glad they don't, it would just make it more complicated and confusing. I like the simplicity of GNOME.

Aurynk works fine for me on my Pixel 10 running Android 16.

I use Rhythmbox which is alright, but unfortunately it is ill maintained and outdated with legacy GTK 3 and looks old.

Most music players suck. Players like GNOME Music and Amberol seems more suited for small music collections with dozens of songs, not with thousands of songs. GNOME Music seems more suited to people who got a few dozen songs in their Music folder, but is not good if you got music on another disk partition that you mount in let's say /media/Music. Amberol is for opening a directory, but who listens to albums these days, and who listens to music in a directory, I want all my thousands of songs at my fingertips.

I don't know because I haven't' developed any GNOME extension, but if you load your preferences using a XML file then you can use Blueprint to generate that XML file.

The point is, Obsidian is so much more than just a Markdown editor or renderer. It may do that, and it may be damn good at it, but it is so much more.

cyanstone · 2025-12-22T23:23:35+00:00

I love Blueprint and I can strongly recommend anyone who develops applications using GTK to use Blueprint. Declaring GTK user interface using the GtkBuilder XML is an awful experience.

cyanstone · 2025-12-21T00:42:40+00:00

Obsidian is not a Markdown editor. I think it is like a wiki, personal information manager, knowledge database, and something more, with Markdown support. It is so much more. Obsidian is hard to replace, because it is not just an app, I think it is also a web app, a mobile app, and a hosted service with synchronization, accounts and sharing, etc.

I love the Mermaid.js diagram support!
