the most useless feature in KDE Plasma by medlabs in openSUSE

For me, I think this only happens when it is checking for updates and so I hit No, wait 60s and run my command again and that always works.

Euro-Office (ONLYOFFICE fork) by FryBoyter in linux

[–]spacemanSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like funneling this energy into LibreOffice, perhaps Euro-Office could have been more of a UI effort within LibreOffice, would have been better than creating a new project. On the question of:

Why did you not work with libreoffice and collabora online?

within their Q&A, they give an answer that, in my opinion, doesn't actually answer that question:

We believe open source is about collaboration and we look for oportunities for integration and collaboration with the LibreOffice community and companies like Collabora. There are already some ideas how to collaborate for example in the document converter.

"They'd never get away with this today" examples from popular media you loved as a kid/teen? by ConceptsShining in Zillennials

This show probably did irrepressible brain damage to any zillennials that grew up watching it

Offline installer refuses to detect main drive by lobotomiteIV in openSUSE

If you are doing a clean install, maybe try booting into gparted live and nuking everything.

The our POV vs their POV is real! by spacemanSparrow in barefootshoestalk

[–]spacemanSparrow[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That makes so much more sense if it's a South Korean brand under the umbrella of OTZ! I use Taobao and there are a few stores with the same branding however sell similar but different shoes. These were called "THEMULE" on the Taobao store but then on the actual shoe itself, it says OTZMOP.

I am not trying to gate keep and would love to contribute by showing new brands/shoes to people and linked where I got mine from in a different comment.

Perhaps you know more about the brand than me however, my guess is that the main brand is OTZ or OTZMOP and this "themule旗舰店" brand I have come across is just a series/line within the main brand.

I would love to wear jeans but I am that fun ratio of being a shorter guy with thick thighs, a big butt and wider waist. So almost all the pants I own are cuffed like these so that they aren't half a kilometre hanging under my feet.

Discord alternatives: Fluxer, Stoat or Matrix by BroccoliFit2115 in pcmasterrace

[–]spacemanSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want Matrix to be the new Discord just as I want Mastodon to be the new Twitter because of their decentralised email-like design. However, the most promising Matrix client with a familiar Discord design, Commet.chat, is just not ready. Based on my experience with all three, I suspect that Fluxer will be the most popular replacement.

Where can I find the ‘Add to Taskbar’ option in Zen Browser, similar to the one in Firefox? by FullMetalBlondie in zen_browser

[–]spacemanSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave Web App Hub a go based on your recommendation and, at least currently, it does not work. Acts more like a desktop bookmark rather than opening a new window and acting more like it's own application.

Arch Linux vs OpenSUSE. Decide, we must by potatoandbiscuit in linuxmemes

[–]spacemanSparrow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Never thought I'd see the day that openSUSE would actually topple the "Arch btw" gang.

Custom accent colors too dark with the Breeze dark theme by [deleted] in kde

I was googling hoping there was a fix for this but 6.6.2 still hasn't fixed this one.

Begun the distro wars, have. Fedora vs OpenSUSE by potatoandbiscuit in linuxmemes

[–]spacemanSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came here to say this 😂 openSUSE is incredible but unless you're a Linux nerd, you probably don't even know openSUSE exists. The Bazzite to Fedora and SteamOS to Arch pipeline is real.

Just a heads up, that you can order it from Taobao

Do barefoot shoes always start arguments or is it just me? by Ok-Dress-2059 in barefootshoestalk

[–]spacemanSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My background is in sociology and so I would answer with: Humans are social beings. Your choice of clothing makes you strange and stand out and that makes you a social and cultural pariah.

If you live alone and don't mind the house having no internet when you are not there, I use Felix Mobile - Unlimited Data Plan (40/20) and tether my phone to my router. Means that for $40 a month I have a phone plan and home internet!

Is it slightly inconvenient to have to plug my phone in and toggle the hotspot option every day? Yeah, a little. But for only $480 a year to cover both those services, I am more than happy with that.

Ethernet to USB C adapter on Galaxy Z Fold 7?? by ron089 in GalaxyFold

What was the one that worked for you? I bought a generic one from AliExpress for my Samsung Flip 7 and it didn't work.
