Looks nice. Is anyone able to tell if I’m going to screw up my KDE install if I try it out? I’ve never tried WM / compositors on KDE that weren’t targeting KDE before.

Too real. I only found out that YMCA is a real thing a few years ago.

huh? What happened? Who’s shitting on ARM?

My personal experience could never agree with that. I could never use Wayland on KDE on either one of my laptops with Intel graphics due to numerous glitches and incompatibilities, so nvidia is not even the scapegoat I wish it was.

I’m looking forward to plasma 6 next month, but at least on KDE, Wayland has not really been usable so far.

I’m almost sure they’re procedurally generated for some time now

wtf is this nitpicking

Every browser I tried does that. They’d be inconsistent if adopting a different behavior.

Idk about others, but most times I click the address bar I want to either copy the address, change it entirely, or search for something. Selecting the entire text just makes sense, especially on mobile where selecting things sucks.

Well, if they did it as you want it, a bunch of other people would complain they’re inconsistent because they’re the only browser that does that (today).

And what’s “everything else on the desktop”? I’m struggling to find more examples other than browsers and file managers. And a few popular file managers don’t even have editable text path inputs enabled by default, so you can’t even say this is a “rule”.

The problem is you’re expecting consistency between elements that should not have consistent behavior for having completely different functions.

A line of text in a PDF, in a WYSIWYG editor, text in UI labels, and text in an address bar all have different roles and should be expected to behave differently, idk why you’re surprised for this “inconsistency”.

Selecting the address with a single click does make sense for the reasons I listed in my first comment.

And it’s consistent across most applications that have an address bar nowadays.

It doesn’t need to be consistent with other kinds of text fields because that wouldn’t make sense.

I’d be more annoyed to have to click it 2 or 3 times in order to search for something.

all that depends entirely how one is writing the report and might also apply to slides

[no solution for you, just a comment] - making slide presentations is such a waste of time that I actually think this is a great use case for AI-driven automation.

and to think windows had 2000 years ago…

I'm so frustrated rn.

I have been distro hopping for about 2 weeks now, there’s always something that doesn’t work. I thought I would stick with Debian and now I haven’t been able to make my printer work in it, I think I tried in another distro and it just worked out of the box, but there’s always something that’s broken in every distro....

I’ve been using Linux for 10y and never distro-hopped to solve a problem. Overall I’ve only used 3 distros as daily drivers. IMO you should look into making things work with a distro you like instead of looking for the perfect off the shelf distro.

Translation: our legal team has to justify their employment, thus we’re threatening non-profit open source projects that can’t fight back and pose no harm whatsoever to the company’s financials, market position, customers, or any other stakeholder.

It’d be awesome if the maintainers could get a pro bono advice / representation here to make a proper response. They’re volunteering their free time improving an extensive list of crappy products of a brand and this is what they get back? Disgusting move from Haier.

Bandwidth (disk and network) is just one metric. Could it be an increase in number of IOPS due to syncing several small files?

this kind of shit is what gives AI a bad rep

no one needs this

almost no one wants it

and they’ll kill it in a couple of years like they did it with Cortana

@eager_eagle@lemmy.world avatar

That’s normal. You need to replace a bad habit with a good one, like eating snacks with doing meth.
