It’s at least what worked for me.

3·7 days agoI guess it’s a weird thing to complain about, but I stopped using VLC because I couldn’t find a way to change the icon theme. The monochrome dark ones it uses by default make all buttons completely blank with catppuccin…
Well, yes, but a Linux spicy enough to keep you above the riff-raff for a few more years.
How is no-one here saying QubesOS???
1·12 days agoMy approach is running it in a container (podman, but if you use docker it’s the same) and simply backing up the mounted folders.
Thus way I can just move everything elsewhere and just restart the container.
As far as I can tell, the paid one also loses then plenty of money (possibly more than the free one?)
ChatGPT subscriptions are significantly cheaper than what they cost the company anyway.
I keep hitting my face on the fact that DKMS modules somehow don’t depend on the kernel headers and these have to be installed manually. This happened to me both in Arch and in Debian.
Why does everyone seem to think that this makes sense?
Why was the feature added if my browser is going to browse to the page anyway? […] it could be a privacy preserving feature.
It’s just supposed to save you time and effort.
If anyone has real concerns about having their IP leaked they should be using a VPN (I think Proton has a fairly generous free tier) or TOR. Relying on a link preview feature like that would be like wearing a condom against the rain. It will technically increase your protection, but you will still be really quite exposed.
Love that you ignore all of the people who are currently seeing the popups and not understanding why.
No, I just took his objection at face value.
They create an AI feature, they realise people don’t want it, and realise a minimal one they can turn on for everyone in a thin-end-of-the-wedge approach.
OR
They create a feature with AI, realise it’s controversial, so they figure out a minimal version, they split the parts with and without AI, and enable the non-controversial one by default.
The facts are the same, just a different narrative. Which is legitimate. Realizing that’s what it is is non optional.
From the linked article I learned that Firefox’s solution also doesn’t use AI, not by default at least.
And the Zen way of doing it has the exact same (imaginary) privacy issue for which the article blames Firefox.
Is this guy for real?
Mozilla says that key points are processed locally to protect your privacy in the release notes, but says nothing about leaking your privacy in showing the link preview (and enabling it by default).
As opposed to the case where you don’t have a link preview, and you click on a website to see what it contains, and they get your IP. The author seems to think Mozilla should have protected our privacy by having someone act as the proxy for the request. Because involving a thirds party that receives all these requests and does work for us for free is absolutely how we protect our privacy.
The user might also have mobility impairments that makes a fast click harder, resulting in a longer hold time.
Yes, a feature clearly designed for pushing onto that juicy “people with mobility impairments” userbase.
I don’t like the direction Firefox seems to be headed in, but damn people really enjoy getting outraged over everything they do. Around here they get ten times more shit than any other comparable project.
It basically mostly already exists, but it’s in Java:

Oh wait
Been there, done that.
I bought a new 4K screen for my home office, to use with my work ThinkPad T480.
Actually had to switch from Konsole to Kitty because my old-ass laptop had scroll lags on the big screen when moving around in neovim.
Edit: It was neovim, I’m not living in 2005.
I mean, they’re not going to let you take a look at the algorithms of the timelines.
Knowing what are the top posts allows us at least to know what those algorithm are pushing. It’s not much, but it’s the bare minimum of accountability.

Using a SIM card with a decently sized roaming plan is absolutely the way to go.
Except when the error is in the chip architecture.
I also had it, any chance that the last poi here In the troubleshooting fixes it for you as well?
