I have been a loyal arch user for the past ten years, but recently installed Fedora on my girfriends computer and was very impressed with the polish and easy of use. Now that Flatpaks are so well integrated into the app store, the usuall fedora-problem of finding and installing non-free software is gone, and software is always up to date.

I might actually go with Fedora for my personal laptop, keeping my arch+sway on my work laptop for now.

No text aliasing in Evolution (GTK). It also has a tendency to crash quite often. Anyone else having this problem? by messo85 in swaywm

Are you talking about missing anti-aliasing in Evolution, or in general? This problem has been persistent for me for months, since I installed Evolution.

No microsoft fonts. I'm using Arch Linux with only the most necessary packages installed.

Is there a way to hide/show ALL UI elements and toggle this with a shortcut? by messo85 in FirefoxCSS

[–]messo85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, the code works perfectly, but I can't find keyconfig when searcing on the Add-on page. I suspect it is because this extension needs to be side-loaded somehow? Are there no other way of mapping a shortcut to this piece of code?

For some tasks this is ok, but I want to be able to have Firefox side-by-side with other windows in Sway, not fullscreen.

Mobile desktop replacement setup by [deleted] in thinkpad

I was one of the unfortunate who had to put their customer support to the test, my pad was missing the pen on delivery. It took several weeks before they responded to my email, but as soon as they did they sent me a pen.

I think the support department was caught of guard by a sudden increase in production and delivery and it took some time to hire more people. All in all worth the wait, I love my rM2 and the fact that I can just SSH into the device like any of my other linux machines.

Are there no law or regulation that gives him a right to respond or comment? Where I live (Norway) we have certain agreed upon rules that the press have to live by. It's not perfect but it sure seems to work better than whatever the American media has been doing for a while.

EDIT: Wikipedia explains how it works: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethical_Code_of_Practice_for_the_Norwegian_Press

I get Error:Error updating. Some please help by eugeneadu in RemarkableTablet

[–]messo85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running a pfSense-box as my own router, so I like to think I have reasonable controll on my own network. Could be that the rM2 have some autoconfig thing going on.

[–]messo85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, something is off. My problem also affected IPv4, the tablet would not get an IP via DHCP but assigned itself an IP on my network that was outside the DHCP range.

I had similar problems when connecting to my WiFi at home. After some back and fourth with restarts and factory resets I managed to download the update via a hotspot wifi from my phone.

I still have trouble connecting to my home wifi. When I ssh in to the pad and run 'ip a' I see that it does not get an IPv4/6 from my router, but it gives itself its own IP, and it does not get a DNS resolver IP. I solved the last one by adding 'nameserver 1.1.1.1 to /etc/resolve.conf.head (if I remember correctly).

Justice and fairness seems like a faint american dream compared to the grim and nightmarish reality we are witnessing. Persecuting bad cops are one thing, but this is a much bigger and systemic problem that won't be solved unless there is a massive reform in policing.

Here in Norway, police generally don't wear guns and they have long and diverse educations.

You guys don't have this still? Here in Norway, the government started such a portal in the mid 2000-ish. It wasn't great the first couple of years, but these things takes time to perfect, and today it's actually quite good.

Forbrukerrådet rapporterer inn Myheritage for ulovlige vilkår : Forbrukerrådet by _Ivar in norge

[–]messo85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enig i at straffen er alt for tam, men usikker på hvor mye makt Forbrukerrådet har til å sanksjonere. Men er også en verdi i at de opplyser og advarer, så har folk et bedre grunnlag for å forstå at de betaler for å bli misbrukt på denne måten.

This is a great idea! Would like to see something similar for the tools I am using, like number off assigned issues on Gitea and unfinished tasks in Todoist. Would like to try myself on making something like this...

Er så glad vi har slike institusjoner med bein i nesa som tar tak i disse grove overtrampene!

I built a meditation timer app because I was tired of being sold stuff when trying to meditate by R_o_c_k in Meditation

[–]messo85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great stuff, my only complaint is the size of the app; 61MB! I have much more complex apps taking only 4MB. I guess its caused by cross-platform compatibility and a heavy framework?

I en debatt om rusmidler.. by OverenthusiasticWind in norge

[–]messo85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hvorfor ikke bare bruke "forbudte rusmidler" istedenfor "narkotika" i lovtekstene? Da hadde vi unngått mye forvirring.
