I prefer thunar &

perishthethought,

Cool, from xfce, yeah. Why is it better?

When I type, it does what you expect (going to the file/folder in the current directory by what you type).

Some time ago the others started doing some annoying search thing when you type, and I can’t find how to turn that off. Anyway thunar is simper and gets the job done faster

urandom, in What's your favourite RSS reader for Linux?

I recently switched to iOS, found out that the front end of my feed aggregator doesn’t work worth safari, but then found Unread, which I could use because they both support the fever api. It was quite a trip, but I’m now content

MalReynolds, in Fedora, Arch, or EndeavourOS?
@MalReynolds@slrpnk.net avatar

Consider immutable, I use ublue-kinoite (fedora spin ‘with batteries’) and use a distrobox Arch for the AUR and development, best of both worlds, rock stable main OS, cutting edge rolling release as needed. I’ve been very happy, and if you’re using for uni and work, reliability should be a consideration.

JDubbleu, (edited ) in creating an alias of a command with plenty special characters

Not at my computer so I can’t double check, but I believe you can replace the outer double quotes with single quotes. I’d also remove the spaces before and after the equal sign for the alias. I don’t know about fish but I know bash doesn’t like when you add spaces there.

Spectacle8011, in (Constructively) What is your least favorite distro & why?
@Spectacle8011@lemmy.comfysnug.space avatar

I don’t really have a least favorite distribution. I mean, I guess between Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, openSUSE, Manjaro, and Gentoo, the least appealing choices to me are Manjaro and Gentoo. Manjaro is just Arch but worse, because the packages are old and likely to cause incompatibilities with AUR packages that need really up-to-date system packages, and I…don’t trust the maintainers to have configured everything better than I could have myself. Just based on history.

Debian has ancient packages. That’s the only reason. I’d just end up using Flatpak packages or compiling from source.

Any other distribution I could use, including Gentoo, but Arch is the sweet spot for me.

0v0, in [help] docker conflicts with host network, causing no internet connectivity
tubbadu,

Debian does not use NetworkManager I think, because there is no /etc/NetworkManager/ directory :(

KingThrillgore, in Which terminal emulator do you use?
@KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml avatar

The one that comes with Xfce and I use zsh, been a zsh user for years

terminhell, in HP Elite Desk

Depends on the model. While some offer bios updates over ip, not all do. That would really be the only thing talking out.

I’ve no idea what you’re referring to aside from maybe the Intel ME, but there may be a way to flash coreboot on it.

WeAreAllOne, (edited )

When any pc starts, isn’t there the boot up menu etc? I’m referring to that. In that menus there are options of remote access or firmware updates etc apart of course the usual setup options like in what turn the boots take place eg HDD, network, dvdrom , USB and others like time, date etc.

Intel ME is one concern yes but I doubt I can flash corevoot on this machine as it is almost 2 years old.

hollunder, in Low battery life due to high power consumption on t490 thinkpad. (help needed)

While I think that 5h of battery life with yt videos running is ok for a t490 you could still try to recalibrate the battery with tlp.

I have a t470s (has two internal batteries) where suddenly the performance of one of the batteries somehow got really bad. After calibration it works as good as before (upower says it’s at about 80%). I did the calibration in windows tho with Lenovo vantage as I’m still running a dual boot setup and didn’t know about tlp before.

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

It’s a common wayland problem. Try editing xf86config to force the scanrate to something your monitor supports rather than relying on dpms ddc/ci auto config
