  • As a theatre tech, I see a Fresnel Lens & get automatically aroused.

    Do you know of any others ?

    Thanks for the review.

  • I was prescribed anxiolytics (some form of benzos I believe) to help ; worked remarkably well in keeping me calm while going through withdrawal. It's not that easy tho, since they in turn are addictive.

  • But it's about the pastry, not the disgusting vegetable. Yikes.

    Calling someone "Mon Chou" is like calling them "sweetheart".

  • PSA: it stands for Read The FINE Manual

    Now canonically switched to "read the friendly manual" which I find more patronizing

  • Tumbleweed and Mint offer Snapper Rollback configured by default, available from the Grub menu. And that's friggin' noïce.

    I'm more of a First World Anarchist myself, I only ever rescue my os-breaking, Arch-is-botched mistakes with a Live Ubuntu thumbdrive.

  • You don't need that: Proton will only surrender accounts/information to local authorities with the appropriate paperwork - and that's their selling point on privacy, swiss law being pretty protective of privacy ; in this case, a corpus of evidence has been submitted by a recognized foreign entity & considered valid for action in regard to swiss law.

    That's what makes proton secure for journalists, political opponents and such: no swiss judge will enable any random dictator to get a dissident's info, it won't fly with swiss law. And if that escalates to bogus criminal charges, it is still up to a swiss judge to decide how and if to proceed.

    You put your trust in Switzerland here, not in a nerdy business with an atom-smashing background.

  • Nah, OP could probably sell her. For cheap of course, given the circumstances, but still.

  • Then there's the spiders. The GIANT spiders.

  • Also "One day all will be yours" - short, fun and quite clever.

  • You shouldn't use flatpaks then

  • The Tumbleweed installer is beautiful, and straightforward. I am not sure how a newcomer would understand, or not, the partition setup if they need to keep windows and dual-boot ; if it's about to wipe the entire machine, it is one of the best, sleekest installers out there. Then package management can be a nightmare if you need to stray out of he beaten path unfortunately. Another argument for TW is the perfect integration of BTRFS, Snapper and Rollback (it is an opensuse project after all) ; I swear I'd still be on TW if it wasn't for some exotic software availabiity.

    To me, debian does bring bloat: LibreOffice comes to mind. A default install will feature calendars, mails, weather whatever.

  • Je suis pas convaincu, et la nouvelle version de la kobo clara était moins chère et étanche - et je "sais" ou je vais. Ou je croyais, voir plus bas. Vivlio c'est juste un re-branding d'un autre fabricant, c'est pas indépendant, c'est DRM et application propriétaire donc bof.

    "Nouveauté" kobo, quasi impossible de la démarrer une première fois sans créer de compte (ce ne fut pas le cas avec la clara hd) ; j'ai utilisé mon téléphone pour faire un point d'accès bidon, proton mail pour faire une adresse jetable, et suis quand même assez fâché. Il y a une solution recommandée si tu cherches, elle n'a pas marché pour moi et rebootait le processus d'initialisation chaque fois.

    Désolé pour le removed de réponse, ton message n'est pas apparu dans mes notifications.

  • 17 years and sometimes I still crave one

  • All that was said here, plus sometimes they don't work. I've reported a bug where the kdenlive flatpak version doesn't render titles or fades - and that's on Debian Testing, Arch, and Asahi Fedora. Native version works perfectly, but forces me to download an untidy amount of KDE stuff on my gnome installs ; flatpak would've been a cool solution to that.

    I am yet to report another where Ardour nukes pipewire, at least on Asahi, but on Arch it was misbehaving also. Native, distro-provided version works perfectly.

    I don't trust flatpak because no one single publisher can test every possible config, and I'm afraid distros become "lazy" and stop packaging native versions of stuff since it's a lot of work.

  • Have tou heard of the sl command?

  • C'est la faute à toutes ces normes, là, c'est sûrement un truc européen ou quoi que on peut même pas avoir la taille de marches qu'on veut mais obligé faut casser celles d'avant toutes mignonnes et au nombre de trois conformément à l'affiche parce que ça doit être 19,5 centimètres ou bien t'es pas en règle et tu vas te faire clouer au pilori la tête en bas avec des quignons de pain coincés entre les orteils pour que les pigeons viennent te picorer la plante des pieds.

    Ah ben non tiens la dernière marche elle est pas à la même taille. Au pilori !

  • It's like with watching TV Series. Why am I going through Firefly again instead of trying something new? Or reading The Expanse again?

  • Better management of the btrfs default settings and cleanup scripts. My install bricked itself because the root partition was 30G and it chocked itself to death (home and all data was elsewhere).
