KISSmyOS,

You can, but 70% quality has visible jpeg artifacts and any editing makes them worse.

KISSmyOS,

Fits perfectly.
Jiffy is the average length of a gif.

KISSmyOS,

I was a broke college student, my pc broke, I had no money for a new one and my roommate gifted me a pc with OpenSUSE installed.
It took me an embarassingly long time to figure out how to install software on it.

100% vanilla distribution challenge

what does this consist of? Well, it’s easy, whenever you install a new distribution of Linux, don’t customise anything, nothing please!! Out of the box experience, you may install software but that’s all. And if you are already using a customised distro, then delete the .config file and reboot, but please be careful and...

KISSmyOS, (edited )

Oh, it’s you again.
Well then I’ve been doing your challenge on most of my systems for the past 15 years.
I mostly just install Debian with Gnome, the programs I need, and then get on with my life.

KISSmyOS,

I don’t think many areas exist where you have both a need and political will for building nature bridges, and also large predators.

KISSmyOS,

Wayland is just a protocol. The WMs, compositors and applications need to implement the features the X server used to provide.
Those that don’t will become useless when X is gone.

KISSmyOS,

I feel like that would be the wrong question to ask my wife while she’s venting.

Why do people hate on mobile games, call them "not real games" and mock them, when some mobile-exclusive games are the best games I've played?

The Infinity Blade or Minigore series, for example, or anything made by Illusion Labs. These games are genius and most consoles don’t even have a touch screen or utilise it well like some smartphone games do....

KISSmyOS,

Question to you: Why do you care if others mock the games you like to play?
Does it make you feel like less of a “gamer”?

On some level, all games are just pushing buttons (or a screen) to make our brain produce the happy chemicals.

I Made Screen Brightness Control on Gnome Much Better (gitlab.gnome.org)

Anyone here struggle with trying to adjust brightness on Gnome in low light? At the low end, the steps are way too far apart, and at high brightness they’re almost imperceptible. Every other operating system uses a brightness curve that better matches human perception....

KISSmyOS, (edited )

That’s somehow really fitting for Gnome (-_-)

KISSmyOS,

Why didn't anyone remind me the dual booting exists?

I was talking to my dad yesterday and he talked about how he dual booted windows and Linux in his college days. I immediately left to download Ubuntu, I feel so dumb for forgetting it’s an option. I literally only use windows so I can play Fortnite with friends. PSA: you can have both Linux and Windows, or you can use a vm in...

KISSmyOS,

Damn, the Arch Wiki is even the best documentation for Windows!

KISSmyOS, (edited )

Windows doesn’t “snitch” on you. Invasive anti-cheat measures demand to act as a root-kit on your pc that reads out literally everything about your system, including CPU, hardware ID of the mainboard, etc. So of course it will see that it’s installed on a VM and you gave it the right to send that info wherever during installation of the game.
Since the point of this measure is to keep people from evading a ban by reinstalling, it will not like seeing that it’s in a VM.

OpenSUSE Leap 15.5 -> Tumbleweed conversion

Thinking of trying to morph my Leap workstation into Tumbleweed (and potentially Slowroll once that project matures enough). I’ve seen that you can do it . I reckon I can rollback relatively easily via the BTRFS snapshots if it goes sideways, but just curious to see what others’ experience with doing so has been.

KISSmyOS,

RTFM. The setup of a user-level flatpak is right there in the Wiki: en.opensuse.org/Flatpak

KISSmyOS,

The worst crime here is using Arch.

KISSmyOS,

when switching I had to wrap my head around the differences in the workflow of doing things. Once youre past that it’s rock solid and had no issues so far.

This is the case with every distro nowadays.

KISSmyOS,

Yes, it’s the community nature. I just love how there is no corporation behind it.

KISSmyOS, (edited )

You asked a distro question on linux@lemmy.ml .
This is to be expected.

KISSmyOS, (edited )

It’s full of boomer humor:

KISSmyOS,

Why don’t you chill out about your Linux setup a bit, and instead of doing stuff to your Linux system, do stuff with it.
Open Source software lives from the contributions of the users, and there’s plenty to do everywhere.
You could use your free time to actually make a difference and help out other Linux users!

KISSmyOS,

That’s a Backronym.

The term definitely comes from looking down on tuned Asian cars (“rice burners”).

KISSmyOS,

Good, now allow me to explain why your programming language of choice is shit.

KISSmyOS,

In my town’s school classes during Covid lockdown were held in Microsoft Teams. But there was a severe lack of IT knowledge. In the beginning, for some reason all participants ended up with moderator rights, so kids kept kicking the teacher out of their lecture.

KISSmyOS,

I typed your symptoms into the thing up here and it says you could have “network connectivity problems”.

KISSmyOS,

On Linux, you need the libdvdcss library in order to rip protected DVD’s with vlc.
For legal reasons, it can’t be included by the distros directly but there’s usually a documented way to install it.

On Ubuntu, this is:


<span style="color:#323232;">sudo apt install libdvd-pkg  
</span><span style="color:#323232;">sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg
</span>
