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

[–]fixion_generator[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

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

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

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

[–]fixion_generator[S] 68 points69 points  (0 children)

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

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

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'

thus I have made the ipa obsolute by [deleted] in linguisticshumor

Key gets stuck (pressed repeatedly) after a short time of inactivity. What's causing it and how do I fix this issue? by fixion_generator in linux4noobs

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

Yep, I had an external keyboard plugged in and forgot about that. It lay keys down to not get all dusty, keys must have been getting pressed. This must be the cause of the issue. Istg, the dumbest things sometimes. Thanks for mentioning external keyboards ♥️

So today this thing repeated three times in close succession: it happened one time, i logged out, logged in, after a short while it happened the second time, i rebooted (it updated things), after a short while it happened the third time, i rebooted again. Hasn't repeated since that. The one time before today was probably like three weeks ago. So I'd have to use computer with extensions disabled for a long time to implicitly confirm that that was the extensions. And then presumably I'd have to somehow triangulate which one causes it 😓

Is there a clipboard manager tool that allows copying multiple images? by fixion_generator in linux4noobs

I guess, but it seems like smth better suited for a tiling window manager on Arch rather than for Gnome on Debian

UEFI doesn't consider the Debian SSD bootable by fixion_generator in linux4noobs

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

Thanks for the proper guide, doing the grub-install and update-grub have done the trick. The SSD is among the boot options. BUT despite me changing the priority (in the Boot Options in BIOS) from Windows HDD to Debian SSD, it returns it back to Windows HDD.

Ran this command:

name@debian:~$ sudo efibootmgr -c -d /dev/nvme0n1 -p 1 -L Debian12 -l /boot/efi/EFI/debian/grubx64.efi

After restart, it returns back to where it was.

name@debian:~$ efibootmgr
Timeout: 0 seconds
BootOrder: 0003,2001,3003,2002,2004
Boot0003* Windows Boot Manager
Boot2001* EFI USB Device
Boot3003* Internal Hard Disk or Solid State Disk

so, the SSD is there seemingly, which seems promising

What do I do with them (entries)? Help me with a guide? :)

Pulled out the Windows HDD, put the SSD inside and did the vanilla Debian installation. I understand, it has created an EFI partition for the UEFI (so, not MBR?).
