meekah, 9 months ago to linux in Checking dependencies for manual build and install of software

As far as I’m aware the only options to install GSR as a package are AUR/yay (not available on fedora as far as I understand) or flatpak (unable to resolve permission issue), so I do think a manual install is the best option. This is a gaming system so GSR breaking is no huge deal.

Thanks for the tips regarding manual installation! I did not know about -devel packages or about the dnf provides command. They will probably prove to be very useful!

I’ve only started out with Linux a few weeks ago and I liked gnome for the few weeks I’ve used it, but I’m liking KDE much more than gnome so far.

KDE has your back. You .mostly use regular windows but with meta+T you can configure tiles that can be used to snap windows to them using shift when dragging a window

Nope, tried around with different browsers at home and at work precisely because of the issue I mentioned.

I was not aware that’s a thing. So you’re saying every link I get on outlook has a redirect link stuck in front of it because of azure AD? But why does that not cause chrome or firefox to load the pages slowly?

Azure DevOps. Another Microsoft product.

No other browser does this, and it only happens when opening the link from outlook. Which does make sense to me because edge has some kind of outlook integration. Probably our incompetent network admin and weird ass network and AD situation does not help, but it’s still a bunch of microsoft products that don’t work properly together.

Eh. Something makes DevOps sites load slowly when opening from outlook. Like, opening a handful of links takes a minute or so

that seems to be exactly what im looking for. thanks

in case you’re wondering about discord specifically, turning off the KDE wallet subsystem in the system settings worked for me, since I didn’t use it anyways.

hmm, interesting idea for sure. I think I would just leave it plugged in 24/7 though so I think I’ll skip this one for now.

I’m not sure what keyring exactly, but I would be suprised if it was the gnome keyring because I am using KDE

meekah, 9 months ago (edited 9 months ago) to linux in How do I get rid of excessive password prompts, with the least amount of lost security?

I’ll disable it and see what happens next reboot. Earlier I tried some flag when launching discord that was supposed to make the prompt go away but that didn’t work. Thanks for that tip.

edit: awesome! this worked. now I just need to figure out flatpak and the screen recorder :D

I really liked playing Talos Principle 2 the past days. makes you think not just about logic but also some aspects of philosophy. which, at least to me, is pretty relaxing.
