Firefox version 126 introduces search data telemetry collection and enhanced copy without site tracking option ( blog.mozilla.org )

With the latest version of Firefox for U.S. desktop users, we’re introducing a new way to measure search activity broken down into high level categories. This measure is not linked with specific individuals and is further anonymized using a technology called OHTTP to ensure it can’t be connected with user IP addresses....

Oh FFS, we want to tailor you experience? Totally unnecesary and how would that make my browsing better?

This file manager made me ditch nnn, very well done!

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

It had some functionalities that nnn did not have like displaying processes or favourite directories and such. In the end I got back to nnn because I read that superfile had internet access plus the fact that I use a graphical file manager for things that nnn or many terminal file managers can not do with extensive plugins.

@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

Yeah, having to customize with env variables is not great, and adding bookmarks is much easier in superfile. Anyway I suposse one does not set bookmarks to often. Plus nnn was so fast I just tapped they keys to get to the directory I needed easily. Once I learned most shortcuts I was flying trough operarions.

I do not, while yes you can socialize I think it intended to be used as an aggregator unlike other sites. Much like you can discuss(forum) and shop in other social media sites.

Many other Arch based too, even if it against Arch's philosophy. Just click "yes" and "next" a bunch of times and you are ready.

I get the idea automation, its great when it saves time and effort but when it represents a minuscule chance of chopping a limb off you it should never be implemented to the public.

Reasons:

  1. It easier to discern between windows
  2. Its pretty.

In any case I agree with you and I make my gaps as small as possible while still visually sensible. Even on a large monitor there is not much point making gaps larger past some point.

[solved] Can anyone use gtk inspector and tell me the class name of the sidebar of gtk4 apps like nautilus

Basically I am using this gtk.css file in ~/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css but it's weird that the sidebar is not themed correctly. If anyone knows about this, please do tell. My only lead at this moment is to find the class and add it in gtk.css file. For some reason I can't install the gtk inspector app, So if anyone has it already...

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

I got the same issue, I was using Gradience to set gtk3/4 themes and that panel never got themed. Apps like Overskride have this issue too. I already had my preferred apps themed correctly so I did not bother.

@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

(no GUI, though).

That is the point. Unless Gentoo has a user-friendly graphical installer that offers minimal dekstop options that does everything automatically for you there is no point of comparison.

Newpipe is getting updates on fdroid again and seem like will be getting updates for the foreseeable future as the issue stopping it is solved. ( f-droid.org )

Also on an unrelated note anyway to remove live from your subscribed channels update field ? Some channels are filling it with live so i have to really scroll down to see my video feeds and can't find a setting to switch it off. Newpipe didn't used to add live in your what's new feed of subscribed channels, related pic .

Arcticons
You can look them up in F-Droid, they have 3-4 versions, dark, light, material you and one that changes depending on the time of the day(dark/light).
PS: it does not work on any Launcher, it has instructions for compatible launchers(20+?) within the app.

My wife is not a fan of the idea, however .

Divorce!

Jokes aside, Edubuntu should cover you parental controls and Education tools needs. And since it comes with Gnome by default the UI should comfortable to your children. I suggest diving into it if you need more something sprecific. Good luck!

PS: There are some good articles flying around about how to convert your loved ones to linux. I have one measly convert and my advice is to show them how can linux solve their problems.

Wanting to dual boot Windows with Kubuntu. Am I fine getting a Windows 10 key instead of 11?

A couple of months ago, I wiped Windows off my old laptop and installed Kubuntu instead. Now, I was thinking of dual booting Windows additionally for a certain game (definitely not League of Legends, for sure not) and will need to buy a new key. Am I fine getting a copy of Windows 10 despite Microsoft's discontinuation, or...

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

If you are asking is it OK to use unsupported Windows 10 just for gaming, then probably. If you are using it for the regular stuff probably not.
Your system will be more vulnerable but unless you are torrenting/downloading random stuff you should be OK I guess.

Most launchers have a "run" mode were you can launch or exec any command, some require flags and/or config. As well as a "drun" mode that looks for desktop apps, most if not all TUI apps will be catches by this.

Yofi will launch anything if you specify your terminal in the config file. That way you can launch desktop apps and TUI apps.

In Wofi you have to specify the terminal but you have to do a workaround because of a bug that is not their fault. You can otherwise launch Wofi in "run" mode.

Issue, reddit post the solution is linking gnome-terminal(or one of the others specified)

For Tofi I think it comes ready out of the box if I remember correctly.

And as for the aliases, some launchers have a rename function if that is helpful to you. Can't remember which though... sorry.

The app is a fantastic idea but I can already see myself struggling to convince people to use it.

True, the post's title made me remember that popular MacOS user with a Youtube channel that tried Asahi Linux. He is quite funny even though he thinks that Linux does everything wrong and complicated.

[Fixed] Mouse Cursor jumps around ( gehirneimer.de )

Hello everyone, I have a weird problem with my mouse: when I switch the window focus, e.g. by alt tabbing to another window, or by closing a window, and the newly focused window is on my other monitor my mouse will jump to that monitor without me doing anything....

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

hmm, that does not feel like it is a bug, I am not runnig Gnome but a Window Manager and there is a configuration were you can enable/disable that exact behaviour and it is called mouse warping.
You should check your setting for something like that or in Forums online.

I agree, the experience of switching to Linux as a regular end-user is overwhelming. The worst are the sensationalist articles that seem they were plagiarized and make you feel like you are missing on some epic feature if you pick one distro over the other.

Hehe thanks. I download huge playlists and then listen to them offline because hate to wait for music to play, specially on Holidays. I recommend SimpMusic for you, lets you use Youtube Music privately with no ads and download music with no restrictions. As for how I download my music… my lawyer told me no to answer that.
I was born in 1996 but I feel you man, we used to share music with Infrared on those SonyEricssons and Nokias and then bluetooth.

nfsu2 OP ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

I was like you, did not get the point of playlists until I got into techno and some other genres that most people would consider “trashy”. Plus there are some collections of Movies/Games that fit nice into a playlist. Anyway, thanks for the recommendation, I will check it now :) .

You are younger than you think, my parents were born 63'/64' and would never be on a forum talking about music players. :) On a Linux forum at that.

From Windows to about 6 recommended distros for gaming.

I am not bad with computers and have a beginner+, maybe intermediate level knowledge of Linux and I kept running into some problems here and there with different distros. Most claimed to work out of the box (which may be the case for some users, but I have a shit ass Nvidia 1060 and that was not at all the case, until I...

I think most people hate Snaps because Ubuntu is replacing .deb packages with snaps with no user prompt and that is a cardinal sin in Linux against the freedom and power of the user. Being “bloated” can’t help either when package maintainers do all what they can to ship programs light and simple. So it goes against at least two Linux principles.

thanks for your work! I use it every day. And btw, I thought that moving from windows to plasma because the UI was boring was weird too(at least aesthetically).
