stardreamer, in Power Management Bugs Hold Up Some Linux Laptops Due To Regulatory Requirements
@stardreamer@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Out of curiosity, what’s preventing someone from making a regulatory db similar to tzdb other than the lack of maintainers?

This seems like the perfect use case for something like this: ship with a reasonable default, then load a specific profile after init to further tweak PM. If regulations change you can just update a package instead of having to update the entire kernel.

tzdb is maintained by IANA. Doubt you can find a similarly large org to run the regulatory db project

SuperSpruce, in Your favorite linux projects for weekend

Using Ubuntu as a daily driver, due to a class requiring some kind of Linux software (options were WSL, which gave me a weird error, VM, or full install).

Never have I tried to actually use desktop Linux as my primary work computer for more than a couple days.

fleet, in Your favorite linux projects for weekend

I have an old mini PC that I’m going to use with proxmox to share some of the load from my nas. Today I setup tailscale and for it working with unbound DNS so I can use my domain when connected.

It’s endless!

itsaj26744, in How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?
@itsaj26744@programming.dev avatar

I use Kaios , Another embedded linux

Helix,

Which phone?

itsaj26744,
@itsaj26744@programming.dev avatar

Jiophone F220b

MigratingtoLemmy,

Do you specifically use feature-phones?

itsaj26744,
@itsaj26744@programming.dev avatar

Life is nice this way, No bzz, Everything supposed to be done by a phone is handled perfectly by this small thing and for rest (like office,game and code) I go with PC

MigratingtoLemmy,

How do you do instant messaging? Isn’t typing with that harder than average?

itsaj26744,
@itsaj26744@programming.dev avatar

That’s also a thing but I use xmpp,matrix on pc (which I rarely do). BTW I forgot to mention I am full time student so…

MigratingtoLemmy,

Essentially, your usage of your mobile ends with calling?

Unfortunately, that won’t work for me since I need a browser to check my accounts and other needs on the move

itsaj26744,
@itsaj26744@programming.dev avatar

I have actually tied everything to my email so all updates are in my inbox. Calling + email,music,text,calendar,notes,todo and we have a brower for basic ddg searches

I’ve used GPT4All, and it’s one of the easier ones to get up and running I found. Everything just works out of the box.

fxdave, (edited ) in Your favorite linux projects for weekend

I made a home inventory management software, because I don’t have much space in my flat, so I track every single piece of the compressed pile of boxes; with qr codes on them.

It’s a very simple app but you should have a printer to print qr codes for the boxes.

The documentation lacks some detail, so ask anything about it, if you want to try it.

github.com/fxdave/DavidHomeVentory

EDIT: yeah I didn’t update the readme. The installation may not work. So tell me if you want to give it shot.

It looks like this in action btw:

toothbrush, in openSUSE Logo Contest Concludes With Winners Selected
@toothbrush@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

well… i prefer the old logo :(

muhyb,

It was perfect. I don’t understand why everything must lose its soul with material design.

MonkderZweite,

Material Design was flat. Now it is lines?

amycatgirl,
@amycatgirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

what

TheGrandNagus,

It’s not material design.

TheGrandNagus, (edited )

Material design looks nothing like this though?

Material design is about blobby, rounded shapes, pastel colours, complementary palettes without much contrast, mostly flat.

HouseWolf, (edited )

You should be able to get the old logo back in neofetch atleast by editing

ascii_distro=“openSUSE_old”

You can actually set it to any logo regardless of what distro you’re on

GustavoM, in How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?
@GustavoM@lemmy.world avatar

Does a single board computer counts as a phone? Then a Orange pi zero 3. (Not like theres anything else to do other than read/lurk online communities, code and the occasional cloud gaming nowadays, so eh.)

MigratingtoLemmy,

I completely agree with your statement (that’s how my day goes too), but I wanted a mobile device. Thanks

v81,

Can it make phone calls?

Discover5164, in Firefox Sidebar Addon like Brave or Vivaldi?

i dislike horizontal tabs, so i go with sidebery / tree-style-tabs. also use a lot of pinned tabs and they sit on top of the list of tabs. this way i can have ~10 pinned tabs and still remember what all of these are.

treierxyz,

+1 for Sidebery. It took me some time to get used to it, but now I can’t go back.

cashews_best_nut,

You can’t get rid of the top tab batt though which is fucking bollocks. So all you can do is F11.

Discover5164,

you totally can, via userChrome.css

superuser.com/a/1424494

mexicancartel,

I always wondered what it means by user"Chrome".css

Why the name chrome(anything related to colours?)

Vincent,

"The browser chrome" is the name historically given to the parts of the browser that are not the website. Then Google created a web browser and decided to name it after it - but userChrome.css existed before the browser Chrome did :)

mexicancartel,

Thanks

mexicancartel,

stepanzak,

Sidebery has a tutorial in the README. You can set it up that the tab bar automatically hides when the Sidebery bar is open.

gnuplusmatt, in Why I'm done with Nobara Linux: A Breakup Story with a Tech Twist

I thought you were going to talk about rebasing between different OStree branches without reinstalling. Would have been more interesting than this, and a feature many people overlook of Fedoras atomic distros

SevereLow, in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS To Get 12 Years of Updates

That’s awesome! I wish more OS-es follow, especially Debian. Having support for an OS that can cover the whole perceived lifecycle of the hardware is something that was once (in the 2000s) the standard. This is something crucial for businesses, but it’s also great for home users.

devfuuu, in The last few weeks in KDE: It’s coming… it’s coming… it’s coming

I’m very excited for what’s to come. Good to know things are going well with the testing and bugs don’t seem too bad.

As features I’d like to see, I guess we still can’t configure different language layouts for different connected keyboards at the same time? I really would like to be able to have my usb connected one with english and the native laptop keyboard with portuguese. It’s annoying that I have to constantly switch when needed globally the layouts. At least multiple connected mouses seem to work fine.

tvcvt, in Writing Docs with Kate - Fedora Magazine

Kate is really a hidden gem. It’s so light weight and just gets out of the way. I’m now installing it everywhere—Linux, Mac, or Windows.

BlanK0, in In-progress COSMIC apps: terminal, file manager, text editor, and settings

Pretty cool, looks like a promising DE

kbal, in The magic behind configure, make, make install - How it works in Unix
@kbal@fedia.io avatar

Make is simple, easy, and effective. It's just "configure" that's full of black magic.
