  • Weird whitespaces in some webpages.

    Hi, recently Firefox (technically Librewolf) presents me with weird whitespace as in the image. I tried to search for something similar, and I did find some post, suggesting I'll edit my font configs (in settings), but this has no effect. I tried to also open in incognito mode or disabled all my plugins or even create a new profile on my machine, but the spacings are always like this. On proper firefox, I don't see this issue.

    Any idea?

    Is there any way to turn my Linux machine into a docking station?
  • Yes, you got it right.

    Thanks for the answer, I suspected that this would be the case from the suggestions, but thanks for explaining.

    I saw that someone did that, but it's too much of digging into his explanation for me to manage to do it.

  • Is there any way to turn my Linux machine into a docking station?
  • I have a docking station, or better said KVM, connected to the monitor, keyboard etc. Currently, I'm switching the KVM between the laptop and the desktop machine using a USB C. I wonder if there is a way for me to turn my desktop into a KVM.

  • Is there any way to turn my Linux machine into a docking station?

    The thing is like this: I have a windows laptop I use for work, and a Linux desktop machine. I have a single screen keyboard etc. and I switch between the two using a docking station. But, I wonder if there is a way for me to "cut the middle man" and just plug/unplug my linux machine.

    I guess I can use a remote desktop solution approach on my laptop, but I wonder if there is a more "extreme" solution. Mostly since I have only one Ethernet port in my home office.

    Any idea how I can find this ~1GB of ghost file on GDrive?
  • Yes, I've seen that, but I don't see anything trully suspecious there.

    There are a bunch of videos that I should delte though. They total to about 2GB. So I guess I'm back to slowly deleting my data from there.

  • Any idea how I can find this ~1GB of ghost file on GDrive?

    Like everyone I'm struggling to keep my data on Google drive below their limit. This is fine. I've been gradually deleting photos from my drive and transferring them to my own storage.

    I managed to clear up about 2GB of space that away, but recently, a few weeks ago my consumed storage jumped up. I cannot figure though what is the file that tis taking away my data. It could be the I switched phone, but I don't see any big sync folder/file that I should delete here.

    Any idea what is happening?

    (Note: I've stopped sharing my photos with Google drive)

    hippocampus
  • Interesting.

    I wonder what I did wrong in the first time I searched for this that I couldn't find anything.

    So if I understand this correctly it is Greek mythology -> actual sea creature -> brain part.

  • hippocampus
  • This happened to me, but then I went to investigate where the name "campus" came from, since campus has nothing to do with sea in Greek. All I found is that there was a sea monster in Greek mythology of that name ...

    (In Percy Jackson, there are sea horse which are proper horses only of the sea, I'm not sure where Rick Riden took the inspiration for them from)

  • [Feature request] screening out the subscribed community when viewing all

    I like browsing through the "all" to discover new community and topics I'm unaware off. I used to do it also on Reddit. There, whenever I would subscribe to a community, I'd filter it out of the all view. Here I'm using block, but this would block the sub also from my home view. So, is ther a way to filter out the communities I'm already following?

    Earbuds commands not picked up by audio player.

    Hi guys.

    I have a Samsung s24U, and JBL Tune Beam. For whatever reason, it is not picked up by the phone audio players. Activating the Google assistant works fine. But if I want to play/pause audio it doesn't work. I tried this with podcast republic (a poscatcher), youtube and the audio player. I'm not even sure how to track this.

    Any of you have an idea?

    Can't figure out how to install codeium on emacs.

    Hi guys.

    So I figured out I should try to work with Codeium on emacs for a while. See how I like it and if I feel I need it. Seemingly this is easy. Codeium.el say that I should just clone into the repo and add it to my init file. Right? Wrong. I'm clearly doing something wrong. Since no matter what I do I cannot run the m-x codeium-install part. I only get "no match" output.

    I've tried to place the (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/codeium.el") both in the ~/.emacs and the ~/.emacs.d/init.el file with no success. I also tried renaming the codeium.el library to be just codeium (and updating the init file) still with no luck.

    So what am I doing wrong here? This should be simple to do, I'm sure of it.

    Any of you have JBL Tune Beam? I feel like the ANC is doing nothing and I want to know if it is only me.

    So, I bought a JBL Tune Beam two months ago. I'm overall happy with the headphones, only it feels like the noise cancelling doesn't really work. I've never had headphones that I was really happy with their ANC (Jabra elite 75t, Bose quiet comfort 35II, and Anker liberty 3). Only here, I feel like there is no real difference, only if I pay close attention I can feel some difference. With the others, the differences were more noticeable.

    So is it just me? Any of you know how I can configure this somehow?

    Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone?

    The company I work in switched to a new building, and we have those stupid doors with RFID cards on them. I'd be damned if I'm going walk with that I'm-working-in-hightech-company-card dangling of my belt. I wonder if there is a way for me to use my phone for credentials. I tried searching for it, and all I could find is ways for me to use the phone in order to copy the info from one card to another.

    So is it somehow possible?

    What is the privacy/security concern with canvas in web browsers?

    I have installed librawolf and I see that canvas access is disabled by default in all webpages so I started activating them when they bother me (whatsapp, youtube, element.io etc.). But then I figure that it is disabled for a reason. What should I pay attention to?

    Help needed

    As expected, me, as a single mod, requires some help. I'll keep this post pinned and update it when needed. At the moment, what the community needs (except for more active users) is:

    1. Another mod, even if there is not a lot of work to do, I'd still be happy if we can have redundancy.
    2. Design for the community logo and banner.
    3. A bot to update the sidebar - this is something I can do myself, only it will take me sometime to get there.

    Some questions about using Lemmy.

    Hi, new user coming from Reddit, as many. Trying to orient with Lemmy, I realize that I still don't understand the idea of instances well enough. Or maybe the fediverse. So there are plenty of instances, and each is supposed to be dedicated to a topic, but this is a very fluid definition. Anyhow, how do I search for instances? I mean, if I'm in Lemmy.world, I can click "instances" and I get the list of instances that are relevant. Sure, I can use google for that, but my logic tells me that there should be a more organic way.

    And this leads to another question, how can I browses communities on other instances with my already existing account? What about platforms such as mastodon where I'm supposed to be able to browse and submit and such?

    And finally, is there a search per community possibility?

    Sorry, I'm still confused about these.
