Saw it and couldn’t help laughing.

OTOH being so customizable seems to be a double-edged sword: people can customize almost everything they want but some can find that overwhelming or don’t even want to spend time looking for a setting.

I use a KDE variant of this that uses klipper instead (whatever you pipe to this will be available in klipper):

` #!/bin/sh

function copy {
    if ! tty -s && stdin=$(</dev/stdin) && [[ "$stdin" ]]; then
        stdin=$stdin$(cat)
        qdbus6 org.kde.klipper /klipper setClipboardContents "$stdin"
        exit
    fi

    qdbus6 org.kde.klipper /klipper getClipboardContents
}

copy $@`

No you won’t.

They won’t throw more than a decade of work to the garbage because “30%” and Nvidia. Those issues can be fixed. Want them to be fixed? Stop complaining and contribute.

Why is Tux flipped, is this some sort of subliminal message? Is BigTech behind of this meme?

I suppose it’s like asking a biologist what type of dishes would they do with a plant species they just discovered

My bet is that this happened because they do develop both the Enlightenment desktop and the E libraries, which is a tremendous amount of work. Add to that that if they are a small team, they’re not going to go relatively fast (afaik E17 took years…). Maybe it was the reason GNOME/GTK(+) and KDE (which began with an already developed GUI library) caught up.

But as I always say in this kind of posts, both Enlightenment and E are amazing and I so wish they were more rich featured and popular and, if I were the XFCE mouse and got fed up with the bullshit of the GNOME-ization/libadwaita-zion of GTK, I’d consider porting all my shit to E - it would be awesome if those two merged into one. GTK and E are both written in C, XFCE has a robust set of apps and a seemingly bigger team behind it…

I don’t know about others but I like my phones to actually last.

My previous phone was a Sony Xperia z1. It went with me for more than 7 years working great until I accidentally dropped it and the screen cracked. Changed the screen but it wasn’t the same thing and the battery suffered too so decided to get another one, a Xperia 1ii. This november it’s going to be 5 years since I got it and it’s still going absolutely great.

But on both times they went great not only because Sony happens to make great hardware but because LineageOS - I’ve used it on other phones since it was CyanogenMod. As not everything in the world is perfect Sony gives no flying fucks about updates so in two years your phone is not going to get more official updates - enter LineageOS, GrapheneOS or what you like. I’m grateful those things exist, have donated to them and it will be very sad if one of those Google stupid movements make them vanish.

The maintainer of X11Libre, Enrico Weigelt, is an anti-vaxer who already got scolded by Torvalds for writing bullshit on the kernel mailing list

Oh, so it’s him. Dude got absolutely lucky Linus is on mild mode nowadays. On his prime the scold would’ve been of such epic proportions all the viruses he could have on his body would’ve leave him out of pure cringe.

Because choices, freedom… that kind of stuff. And I say this as a now long time KDE user who used to use GNOME in the beginning.

That being said, what made me flee to KDE was realizing that its devs somehow think they know their users better than their users know themselves so they decided to develop a software metaphor with a utterly specific way to do things. Not that it’s a bad thing per se, they can do whatever they want if they don’t hurt anything or anyone else - but I wish people coming into the Linux and FOSS world could have that as a kind of warning when the distro they choose to begin their journey happens to ship GNOME as default.

No, because we’re telling to use : as a separator with the -F flag

Not sure if I’m understanding, but can’t you just pipe the whole thing to awk and capture the first field? Like

echo "/dev/loop0: [2081]:64 (/a/path/to/afile.dat)" | awk -F: '{print $1}'

Which would print

/dev/loop0

I’d suppose if you ask this on KDE Reddit someone with enough time could make something like this with Kvantvm, though the difficult parts would be (1) the web browser theme, and specially (2) the icon theme - I have never ever seen an icon theme like that for Linux

Wishing to have stable Qt6 Krita soon

And what do we see? Virtually unchanged phones.

You say this as if it was a bad thing.

Yes, shaving is a chore - when you have to do it on a daily basis.

As a professional bald fart for more than 15 years, one of the reasons I’m thankful to be able to work from home is that I no longer need to shave head+beard on a daily basis. I really dislike the “shade” so always tried to shave as close to the skin as possible, which took me up to half an hour. Now that I have a job I get to look like one of those wojak characters with aggressive baldness and not worry about shaving for days.

Granted, with a safety razor that time came down to like 20-25 minutes and got less nicks than with a disposable razor. But when I had the chance to get a Leaf razor that came down to 15-20 minutes and never got nicks again. And with that one it’s like the best of the two worlds - multiple blades to speed and make easier the shaving process and the non-disposable razor with real cheap and superb blades.

It’s because they think being dumb makes them tough.

I don’t think there are any other options - as I understand that would require coloring an icon on the fly, wether a default icon or a custom icon

Not sure if this is what you’re asking for but as with Dolphin 25.04.0 I can right-click a folder, select “Properties” (not sure if that’s the actual name in english; or just hit Alt+Enter), click/tap the folder icon within the modal and search for a color in the search box - lots of tinted folders (but not so much colors, though) shipped with the default Breeze icon theme

Everyone seems to poke on the vim vs emacs/gnome vs kde/systemd vs everyone else but it seems to me the most toxic feud in the foss world has been x11 vs wayland. People had throwed shit at it because of their own specific issues and its “slow” development pace without realizing it’s a titanic endeavour and the hate and toxicity brings absolutely nothing positive to the table nor the development of Linux & FOSS in general.

To each his own, and though I have never consumed any kind of drugs nor think I ever will (nor can’t understand the need of drugs beyond medical field, pretty much contrary of what it is stated in the quote of this post), I concede keeping it illegal while at the same time alcohol and nicotine are both completely legal is one of the reasons I still think our so-called “civilization” is extremely idiotic, mediocre and pathetic. Either make all of them legal but regulate their consumption or make it so it never bothers anyone else or anything else in any way, or make all of them illegal - but the disparity of current legislation about all of them around the world is just nonsense.
