  • GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure people who use MMB do know that it uses one of the two clipboards in Linux. Hence the reason they use it.

    That being said, I find baffling that they are not setting this as an optional feature but just outright disabling it.

  • YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.

    Jump

  • It happens with almost any latin american community in the USA. It happens with almost latin american community on internet.

    For example, r/Colombia or r/Bogota are huge echo chambers of daddys's boys, neoliberals and even cardboard-colored neonazis who don't have a grasp about the complexities of the country and seem to live in a bubble. i.e. they make fun of people who don't have Netflix... on a Country where less than 50% of people have internet access, not everyone has a TV and there are places where you only can tune a couple of AM radio stations.

    Pretty sure something similar happens with almost every latin american country community on the internet or in a so-called "first world" country.

    That being said, some Venezuelans deny criminal organizations like "Tren de Aragua" are real or that venezuelans are running them, be Maduro supporters or not. But they're real and are extorting and killing people in other countries in Latin America. This is not to say every venezuelan is a criminal, but not every venezuelan is a saint.

    Our countries' reality is way, way more complex than people in the USA realize.

  • GNU ddrescue 1.30 "Orders of Magnitude" Better In Recovery From Drives With A Dead Head

    Jump

  • Sounds like it's time to get an IDE adaptor and try to recover something from my old drives

  • The billion dollar race to replace Windows

  • Us nerds using Linux with our old machines raging against the system slowly gaining market-share.

    I swear the majority of us nerds using Linux have pretty new and powerful machines - sadly that hasn't ever been my case, though, but in online forums, Lemmy, Reddit, and what have you it feels like people interacting have pretty cool hardware.

  • Really useful vim tricks you've probably never seen - Bread on Penguins

    Jump

  • I saw like the first couple minutes of that video, but if I recall correctly the <(thing) bit creates a temporary file in /proc so you can use it right away with your command, in the example you gave, with ls

  • I agree with some comments at HN about that proposing an alternative is kinda pointless. D-Bus, contrary to the X situation, can be fixed.

  • Linux is the reason Windows apps are bloated these days

    Jump

  • 5 downvotes are absolutely nothing compared to that level of idiocy.

  • [Answered] Video players that look like IINA, or can?

    Jump

  • Some people love whatever Mac/Windows does in UI for some reason. Most popular and downloaded themes on opendesktop.org are almost always whatever that resembles Mac/Windows for this reason.

  • Linux Kernel 6.19 Will Introduce the Terminus 10x18 Console Bitmap Font

    Jump

  • This made me remember that one time several years ago when I was wondering if there was any way to change that font and learned there was some sort of service that allowed you to do that in boot time, but the downside was that there was some sort of what it's known at frontend web development as "FOUT" (flash of unstyled text) and you could avoid that by converting your .pcf font to C code and patch it into the kernel code, but at that point I gave up.

  • Im sorta a computer hoarder but what can i do with some older desktops?

    Jump

  • Pretty sure there should be some nonprofit that will gladly get and assemble them so i.e. children on remote places can have a computer.

  • That's an insult to six-year-olders. They are learning constantly and they don't shit their pants.

  • Gentoo experience?

    Jump

  • Comments complaining how everything takes time to compile in Gentoo are kind of funny, do you really need everything to be installed asap?

    That being said, Gentoo indeed is not for everyone. I've been using it for +15 years and am really happy with it - almost zero maintenance and it's super stable. The crux is the time it takes to be installed and people hold a weird grudge against it just for that.

    But at the same time there are more distros oferring pretty much the same, i.e. your own arch.

  • Upgrade to Windows today!

  • At my uni they go to the extreme where not only one gets around 20-30 mails DAILY but now to go check your email, which is gmail-based, it hops first into a Cloudflare human verification page that you can never pass in Falkon because it keeps looping after you check the human verification

  • And Ford beat the entire world into a 48h workweek

  • People on rolling releases, how often do you update your packages?

    Jump

  • I update Portage almost daily but do the actual package updating kind of every week - it depends on how many packages are (or how big they are) to be updated

  • I heartily agree

  • I have a picture with one of my dogs. He's very cute. But there must be something going on with me as I never got any single match. Pretty sure he'd get many matches, though

  • Blame qt

    Jump

  • A few days ago I saw a post on c/opensource@lemmy.ml about "an alternarive to KDE Connect", and the rationale to wanting "an alternative to KDE Connect" was that it "makes you download a lot of other software that you don't really need". Which it's just the required Qt stuff. imho that's plain ridiculous.

    Given the high upvote count you can guess people just think about GTK as the default and every other toolkit as "software you don't really need".

  • I don't think so but it seems you two are mixing Android and AOSP.

    Android is owned by Google. AOSP is not.

    I might be wrong on this but it seems to me they're replacing in Android, the OS shipped with many smartphones, parts that have open licenses, i.e. parts from AOSP. Like they are replacing open parts of code with privative parts of code.
