Hello, I'm laid off and I can't afford therapy. If it's okay I'd like to vent.
  • Start rolling 9-5 and then keep an eye open for things you may be passionate about.

    Maybe you want to help people, or start reading, or go to concerts, or start some hobby, or ...

    Just observe opportunities and act on them. The most precious thing is time. Relax and go from there

  • Why does nobody here ever recommend Fedora to noobs?
  • I can't honestly recall or put my finger on it what I did wrong.

    Choose fedora because it used my laptop subwoofer and wasn't a rolling release. I remember each time (x2) reading about how to update the distro and each time my system was completely borked. I went to debian, read upon alsa, made my subwoofer work with a homegrown script and never looked back.

    To this day I am wondering if people recommending redhat are trolls or paid.

  • Firefox user loses 7,470 opened tabs saved over two years after they can’t restore browsing session
  • How short term are you actively using all 100 tabs?

    This session is almost one year old and on my private laptop. At work I used to juggle three projects so sometimes I had three windows with up to 30-40 tabs. Effectively they remain about 5 workdays project wise. I use it as a short-term memory: While on call, open tab with workload, write it down on paper and queue it.

    Best thing is to finally close all that crap and get to a tab I wanted to read for my own.

    I don't even use many bookmarks.

    Me neither. Had to tweak the urlbar in about:config though.

    ... or move the cursor to the address bar, ...

    That's ctrl_G right? I tend to close + open the tab to get to the address bar and then restore the closed tab. Is there a more quicker way to get into the address bar than said binding?

    Easier to me than having to maintain/remember the order of tabs.

    It's reliable and muscle memory. Its perfect for short interruptions and and then resume where I have left.

  • Firefox user loses 7,470 opened tabs saved over two years after they can’t restore browsing session
  • My bookmarks shall be my first suggestions in my urlbar, so a bookmark is either frequently used or something I want to refer to specifically because of its content and quality.

    Everything I want to read later is placed as leftmost of my top-level tabs. Opening tabs is right to my current tab without visiting them immediately. I visit them by closing the first and immediately get the next unvisited. My previous tab is still my top-level.

    If I do not have the time to read everything leftmost, I may open a new window. If there is something really worth it to be saved, it gets elected a bookmark.

    // after reading my own answer: My bookmarks are curated across years, my session might life 1 hour to multiple months. Firefox allows me to even transfer my tabs across new devices. Each time i finished a task and close tabs, I am able to read on of the tabs to the left. This is work time.

  • Firefox user loses 7,470 opened tabs saved over two years after they can’t restore browsing session
  • I have around 100 tabs open. If they remain opened, I can ctrl+tab in chronologic history. That's otherwise not possible.

    // Edit: Also, this order remains across reboots I never had any issue with this. They can easily be recovered after an update and the ordering still exists. It is simply more powerful then bookmarks. Also from these tabs may only be a low percentage bookmark worthy.

    At some commenters: just because you are not grasping my workflow doesn't mean that I am missusing my tool. In fact I am able to fully navigate my entire session with the keyboard across multiple tasks spanning multiple months. If you simply dump all of these in the bookmarks I am lowering my bookmark quality, which results in wrong suggestions in my urlbar. And I do not even use any plugin.

  • I'm getting old
  • I really couldn't enjoy them. It was going against my grain and I could tell every upcoming emotion upfront. It reminded me of these short-cutted youtube videos.

    Some scenes were nostalgic but I did indeed feel robbed for all the potential stories missed and overwritten.

    Since my friends had a good time I just focused on these few nostalgic moments which were nice to see after such a long time. You gifted me the opportunity to reflect which I appreciate.

    The prequels are god awful movies and you seem to have no issue with them.

    Hehe, you read me like a book. I even liked episode one very much.

  • I'm getting old
  • When episode 2 was released I have already read at least 10 books from the star wars universe. Chronologically before episode 1 and after episode 6.

    The authors of these books exchanged concepts, aligned the universe across ther works and put care into consistencz between different reads. They probably even questioned george lucas about the possible future.

    And then there came disney, dumped across years of work and didn't bother to align anything. This is why they suck hardcore to me. And then these films are dump and just money-grabbing machines.

    Fuck everything since disney. They simply suck hardcore.

  • Qualcomm Aiming For Snapdragon X Elite GPU Support In Linux 6.11
  • Graphics driver for sc8280xp are already a thing. There are more issues in convenience daily driving linux, currently. From the top of my head:

    • firmware update path
    • dtb update/loading path
    • no virtualization
    • no universal dock compability
    • missing HDMI/DP features

    I suspect that these issues are common between their ARM chips and will be addressed for both chips almost simultaneously. But I have no real idea on kernel development. And their documentation is only shared with linaro so one can only guess.

  • Flagged ads ?
  • Some elaboration of mine for doing this post:

    Once I helped organizing some huge event. Attending negotiations between a monopol-like company and the purchasing departments.

    Attendees required to be far from certain competition and even ruling participation out under certain circumstances.

    I am in favor of the doubt but there has to be more similiarities between these sponsor than to the common eye. So I posted this.

  • Post List: Next to current sort in the top bar

    Feature request: Place a checkbox next to the currently selected sort which sets "hide read posts".

    This way I do not have to issue two requests and two button clicks, if I switch the sort order. This should make the sort-mechanism more convenient.

    Additionally one could either shortly show a toast that "automatic hide read posts" was set.

    Alternatively a succinct icon could be plaed next to it.

    [EU/Import] Need to buy it a third time.

    My last CD was destroyed in my current car. I need to skip 60% of the tracks. And I know the fade-ins. I want to buy an original copy. But there is no possibility here in the EU.

    2007-2010 it had each year 10x the amount listened to in comparsion to any album. For my first CD I even made a copy to save the original. But I used to smoke weed and I fucked it up.

    So, any recommendations for me? I want to buy it from an official vendor! And I pay extra for anyone willing to forward.

    Have fun with the best album since 2004.

    What american football position I should be trained in?

    So I got the thought that american football incorporates any type of physique.

    Say I would restart in america, which position may I be trained in given I joined an american football team? Post your physique and let passioned footballers answer it.

    I am 6'3", good sprinter, physically resistant, average at about 190 lbs and can't throw things.

    What position I am good for (and what does it do)?

    // edit: I could have been a receiver but I am a safety (sounds wrong tbqh).

    multi-user.target After Ending Hibernation?

    Is it possible to resume after hibernating at the multi-user.target? Essentially logging out immediately before hibernation.

    I am using xinit to start my xfce4 desktop.

    How would you go about it? Preferrably without installing new programs.
