fleet, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

wezterm. Works great on wayland and the documentation is amazing. And it’s built in rust if you’re one of those people.

Limonene, in What does Ubuntu do when LTS is supported for 12 years, but PHP is not?

In many cases, they will cherrypick security fixes and other major bugfixes from the bleeding edge version, and put those fixes in the old versions of the software.

This is the same thing the PHP folks would do while the old PHP is supported. Once the old PHP is out of support but Ubuntu LTS is still in support, then the Ubuntu folks have to put in the extra work to do the cherrypicking.

SheeEttin, in What does Ubuntu do when LTS is supported for 12 years, but PHP is not?

Either they add a new version of PHP or they backport the fixes.

db2, in What does Ubuntu do when LTS is supported for 12 years, but PHP is not?

I would think “long term support” can also sometimes mean moving that support to a newer version, especially where it doesn’t break compatibility.

atzanteol,

It usually involves “backporting” new fixes into old code.

That would be the logical conclusion, but I believe Debian uses the old version for years after it’s unsupported and might backport security fixes depending on how severe they are. Either way, I personally wouldn’t trust Debian or Ubuntu to properly fix security issues with a program (or in this case, programming language) that they do not actively develop or maintain themselves.

No love for xfce4-terminal around here?

Kualk, (edited ) in What does Ubuntu do when LTS is supported for 12 years, but PHP is not?

Only if there is such a huge vulnerability that they will have no choice.

That’s just my guess.

Promise of support is a tricky one.

atzanteol,

I love how people are up-voting your completely wrong “just a guess”.

spacemanspiffy, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

Konsole for regular stuff, kitty for neovim.

Father_Redbeard, in Is it possible to use Google Drive reliably?
@Father_Redbeard@lemmy.ml avatar

That seems strange regarding rclone. I’ve used that with success with G drive, backblaze B2, and I drive e2. Any errors or logs you can see?

electric_nan, in Suggestions for consumer cloud syncing on Linux?

Rclone. You can set it up to work with most/all commercial cloud storage providers. Basically a little bit of configuring in the terminal, and you get the storage mounted like a network drive. You can even add in a layer of encryption. For awhile I had my media server using google drive this way as storage for like 10TB of TV/movies!

variants, in Secondary Monitor Glitching on KDE Wayland (open source Nvidia driver)

First diagonal monitor now trapezoid

timkenhan,

Crazy, rite??

Termius because somehow I glitched the free trial for like 8 months and love having all the hosts saved and synced across devices. The android app is pretty damn slick. Can save frequent commands and has a password clipboard thing, probably not the right way to describe it. That said, if I’m just opening a local sesh on my Pop!_OS desktop I use the bundled one for that.

toastal, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

Kitty as I need X11 support & I use the kittens it comes with too. Kinda which more applications used their drawing API to get images on the screen.

Console (gnome) w/ bash currently

ethanolparty, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

whatever comes with the distro I’m using this month
