  • It's fixed by now I think ; I never update between projects, so sometimes would go a few months between updates and it hasn't happen anymore. When it did, the fix was simple enough while still annoying of course.

    AFAIK now the keyring gets updated first if needed. In the middle of something here, can't try unfortunately - but at the time of the issue, while the first-level answer was "Update All The Things (all the time)", the problem was on the table, and acknowledged as in need of a fix.

  • Amazon je peux pas. La paperwhite est la meilleure liseuse que j'aie jamais possédé, avec la puce 3g et l'accès wikipedia partout dans le monde + rétro-éclairage + Calibre (I use Arch btw) + la fluidité du logiciel, c'était la meilleure.

    Mais je peux plus quoi. Tout est immonde dans cette entreprise.

    Donc après m'être assis dessus, j'ai choisi kobo mais c'est encore pas terrible, dit-on. On les accuse d'être un rouleau compresseur qui tue les petites librairies.

    Bon j'ai bien tout regardé le site de vivlio, c'est DRM, application propriétaire etc.

  • Generated my grub configuration as grub.conf

    This one took a stupid amount of time to debug - but on the other hand, when grub failed it did with "can't find any bootable thingy" and not "missing configuration file" as, in my later opinion, it should.

    Life Linux is a harsh mistresses, sometimes.

    1. If it annoys you, you can filter it out by keywords. I use this to block anything "Musk" for instance.
    2. Asahi is GREAT and the install process a breeze ; Coming ftom macos I suggest you select Fedora-Gnome rather than the default KDE desktop.
    3. For your carriage return to work, you need to leave a full blank line between your chapters.
  • Connect does all that (Android) Free, no ads, frequent updates; dev support via buy-me-a-coffee thingy.

  • I fully don't get sync. It's drowned in ads (or, if you have custom DNS, full of endless black placeholders for ads), and feature-wise just like Connect. I haven't checked for a while, but I remember people asking for stuff that was already here on Connect.

  • Duh, we have high-speed rail in Morocco. It's called Al Boraq and is the best way to blast from Casablanca to Tangier.

    And it is not overpriced like in France, where the tgv is more expensive than a taxi to the airport, your plane ticket, and then another taxi.

  • I want to know more about this picture.

    • Is it on display in an Haunted House exhibition to frighten children?
    • Does the owner of these racks sleeps next to it, and is that under his mum's house?
    • Can it run doom?
  • A cool turn on that one is by the Arch Linux Wiki, which calls it Read The FINE Manual. Owning to the fact that this particular wiki is quite excellent. I use Arch BTW.

  • I use Connect.

    Plenty of features. Last time I checked, it was on par, or better, with sync. As ad-supported freeware, sync just bas too many ads, which on my phone turns into endless black squares of blocked content.

    You van support Connect with the usual buy-me-coffee thingy.

  • THIS!

    Not one more repository to add, sign, reload at each update. And can get compromised.

    Not one more piece of software to run that may, or may not, run properly (looking at you ProtonVPN)

    Just download the wireguard or openvpn configs to some desired exit points, load them into NetworkManager as described, and BINGO you have an integrated way of switching desired location, a visual icon in the taskbar confirming your status, and no extra hassle.

    Did you know that qbittorrent can be told to only work if the VPN is on? There are places where it matters.

    And to answer your question, no, that is not normal. If a piece of software isn't available for your distribution, then consider finding another. Like, here, using NetworkManager to do the job!

  • Except one, all of them are very short indeed. Tho when I discovered the series, All Systems Red was cheap, probably to get you hooked. I liked them a lot, tho after a while it tends to repeat itself a bit. I'd say buy them one at a time and decide how far you'll go?

    I truly enjoyed them.

  • Mac. Why the eff can I not remove StockMarket, Weather, Chess (and so many more)... On an Audio WorkStation dedicated to Studio / Live work? Even in terminal, command line from rescue mode with permissions butchered. Argh.

  • It's complicated, but it looks like this season's gonna be 60% Morocco 30% France. I'm Belgian. I have too many toothbrushes.

    It is nice over here indeed, very safe and friendly.

  • Even if the TP unrolls on the side of the wall?

  • I checked all the replies before replying here, and but for this "here in China" one, nobody seems to live / be / exist outside the catholic sphere ?

  • Day 148. I have a thought for those having to go through that "festive" period where alcohol is even more prevalent, in-your-face than usual.

    The idea that alcohol is somehow mandatory for celebration is the very proof that this shit is, well, shit.

    I wish you strength my dudes. And all the best.

  • Seriously, how many of us lemmies live somewhere else? I'm in Rabat atm, there's zero assassinated pine trees covered in brightly coloured plastic shit in sight. And everything is Business As Usual here.
