brunofin, to asklemmy in People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat?

Brazilian here, to be fair I’ve read so many good tricks here that I am not sure what I have to contribute, but yeah, light clothes with bright colours or white, don’t dress dark as your clothes you heat up. No shoes if you can, but also not barefeet lol sandals and flip flops havaianas styles. If you live close to the beach obviously go take a swim, otherwise swimming pool or AC at home or car or go to store random stores with AC too lol. Drink cold stuff, keep hydrated. Fans, and cold shower.

Boycott you instead, dinosaur.

Isn’t Linux about freedom? Fucking pick a distro that uses X11 you like and keep X11, or build your own or some crap like that.

brunofin, to linux in Who uses pure GNOME (no extensions)

Since GNOME disabled desktop icons years ago, I liked it so much that I disable them in every OS I use, even on Windows.

They are just ugly and make the whole system feel messy. I do t need that. I can use the search or a favourites thing in a hidden drawer like the start menu or the gnome dock.

brunofin, to linux in GNOME is (Gradually!) Dropping X11

And for Slack/Discord they’d have Wayland support if they didnt use ancient Electron versions.

When tech debt finally catches up as a bug…

brunofin, to linux in GNOME is (Gradually!) Dropping X11

The only thing keeping me on X11 at this point is Slack screen share feature. It doesn’t work on Wayland to share the entire screen (specific apps do) and it is entirely Slacks fault here.

X11 also has slightly higher FPS for gaming but not much.

brunofin, to asklemmy in Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?

I used Linux for maybe 15 years and I have to say I absolutely love it. I even attended Fedora Flock conference, I was really into all the FOSS world. But at some point I guess I got really tired of editing text files on a command line and googling to solve specific problems or just plain OS settings.

I can’t say that I don’t miss it though and especially more now than ever the itch is there and I am curious to install and use Linux again, so I dunno…

brunofin, to asklemmy in How do downvotes on instances with downvotes disabled work?

If you’re a user of an insurance with downvotes disabled, you’re not able to downvote anything anywhere even on other instances, and you’re not able to see downvotes on anything from anywhere even other instances. Users from other instances can downvote on your content and content from others from your instance or posted from users from other instances on communities from other instances but are only visible to users from instances with downvotes enabled.

This has some unexpected effects besides only “hiding” the downvotes on your user interface, this affects sorting a little differently in those instances.

Seems to have fixed the issue, it didn’t reboot overnight. Thanks!

Did you really wake up so early this morning and chose violence?

Dude it’s Friday. Leave us alone and go be happy.

brunofin, to linux in How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?

Depends on what you do. I take care of this .Net 4.2 backend project which is not compatible with Linux in any safe way. For years I used windows and tbf I enjoyed it, but I am back to Linux and I use a VM with Windows on it to run the project on Rider. I have a setup which allows me to use the backend in this VM and the front-end, database and all rest is native on Linux. It works well for me with the downside of RAM usage, but I designed this laptop with this kind of use case in my from the very beginning so 64GB of RAM I have enough room to run the VM and everything else I need and steel have a snappy environment. I like it better this way, Linux has evolved so much in the past years I am honestly very impressed.

brunofin, to linux in What is the easiest way to try all the DEs?

That’s a really cool feature

brunofin, to linux in [Fixed] Fedora 39 keeps rebooting when left idle for a long time

Thanks, I had screen sleep set to 10 minutes. Hibernation has been off since a long time. I will let you know by tomorrow if this fixed it.

brunofin, to linux in Fonts

I like the Ubuntu font for the system, but in the terminal and my IDE I use JetBrains Mono.

brunofin, to asklemmy in What series did you rewatch most often?

While I am not a huge fan of the idea of rewatching a series, me and my wife are rewatching The Office now, we’re already on season 4 or 5 I think.

Another one I could probably rewatch is The Big Bang Theory.

Besides that, I am actually trying to avoid spending the evenings in front of the TV.

I just thought it was the easiest way to show relevant system information :p
