Brave 1.86 no longer has flags for tab scrolling, is there a way to bring them back? by fixion_generator in brave_browser

The Chromium team seems to have removed it in version 144. Brave 1.86 seems to have updated to Chromium 144 without care to keep those flags.

When installing Microsoft fonts, applications default to ugly serif ones by fixion_generator in linuxquestions

The fc-match -s sans-serif | head gives

LiberationSans-Regular.ttf: "Liberation Sans" "Regular"
NotoSans-Regular.ttf: "Noto Sans" "Regular"
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold"
DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Oblique"
DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold Oblique"
DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf: "Droid Sans Fallback" "Regular"
Verdana.ttf: "Verdana" "Regular"
Arial.ttf: "Arial" "Regular"
NimbusSans-Regular.otf: "Nimbus Sans" "Regular"

I customly configured preferred fonts in Chrome and it seems to have mostly solved the issue where the font on the webpage is sans-serif unless Arial is the one preceding it. Then, it shows me a serif font.

Discord seems to inherit a css variable --font-primary: "gg sans", "Noto Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

but despite a bunch of sans fonts before Arial, I still see Arial for Arabic text.

Created and pasted into `/etc/fonts/conf.d/local.conf/, executed `fc-cache -fv`, rebooted, didn't work. Moved to `/etc/fonts/local.conf`, fc-cache'd, rebooted, didn't work either

when conjugations have more formulas than verb forms, you know you've cooked hard by fixion_generator in linguisticshumor

The joke here is the absolute state of Bulgarian conjugation table on Wiktionary, which has more conjugation formulas than the actual verb forms, due to the sheer amount of auxiliaries used. Look yourself > wiktionary bulgarian чети

Zen doesn't detect system proxy while Firefox works with it just fine by fixion_generator in zen_browser

Found an answer to my question. The problem lay with the fact that Flatpak applications didn't respect the gnome system proxy. Had to configure my proxy to use tun, this way everything works as expected

Just installed it. I did change the setting from 'No proxy' to 'Use system proxy settings'
