I think you were being biased.

1. You heard the name of the software
2. You search on Google, which takes you to their official website
3. You click on the download button and download it
4. Double click on the file and follow the on-screen guide to finished the installation

I think softwares like i3 or dwm are what OP means.

Is there anyone here remember Gentoo and the merge/split /usr period?

Gentoo developers are kind and super helpful that they put out any important notice after you pull upgrades to your system. Run eselect news read to know what the breaking change is going to be, and carefully perform the required actions one by one. It’s a great distro made by great fellas.

I don’t mind there is breaking change at all. I do mind that you don’t tell me about it.

I used to use Gboard for Cantonese input. I downloaded fcitx5 reading your comment and tried it for some time. There are some features noticeably missing compared to Gboard.

• top numeric row
• single-hand mode
• simplified and traditional characters selection#

# Found it. It’s in the settings bar at the top of the typing area. Click it open and go deep inside it.

What Gboard and fcitx5 both don’t have for Jyutping input is glide typing. I wish fcitx5 have it because it is really what could make me switch and not look back. Gboard in general has better finger tap detection/correction because duh Google had more data to train on. But I will definitely start using fcitx5 because being open source is sufficient for me to switch.

For languages that isn’t supported by its plugins like Japanese, I have to keep using Gboard though.

GTK+4 was released? When??

I’ve been compiling GTK+3 3.2x, the latest stable version about ten years ago and always wonder will they ever advance the major version. Years of installing XFCE4 and stuff and I always saw them pulling GTK+3 as a dependency. Never seen GTK+ marked 4 though.

To be fair I haven’t visited their official website for a while though.

What you both said are true. It’s convenient to load a site and perform tasks to a degree what native clients can, and it’s also weird how since more than a decade ago we can’t agree on anything and now we are trying to do everything in a web client.

Does anything show up in dmesg when you plug in the adaptor?

I read that you don’t have another adaptor or computer for debugging, but it’s equally sad that it’s most probably the best result you can get, knowing or not knowing what the root cause is. You literally need to test another adaptor, try another SD card, try a different USB port. Basically throw everything at the wall and see what sticks. It would work without technical knowledge eventually.

Rebasing is for advanced git users who knows what he’s doing. If one does not know how to use it or not feeling comfortable in general, he can happily take his own code and try to merge it into the latest version instead. No one is judging.

For the rest of the world where projects are open-source, more often than not, not those projects inside a corporation where only the team lead is making decisions, it’s a powerful tool to settle down conflicts sort out history.

One does not need to change the history again, if he’s not comfortable with it. Just use git as if it’s centralised VCS like SVN. No big deal. In fact, in corporations you do. There only needs to be one person who manages the repository.

For those of you who is hyped, what is that so good with SteamOS, please? Honest question.

Own a Steam Deck myself. I ran SteamOS for about two months, I think, then I finally had enough of it because I really want to install some software of my choice on it, and having some control over the machine in general. But SteamOS is putting an immutable layer on top of it somehow and reset the changes I made every time I updated it. Forgive me for I don’t remember much detail.

Now I run Gentoo on it. I can still install Steam and all the games if I want, and I have full control of it.

Reading the first sentence of your post: I dispise you.

Read to the end: I love you.

I made a very generous donation to Krita a week ago, which was $10. They seemed happy about it.

I might be selfish for saying so, but if anyone set up their mind to run anything on a 32-bit system after 2038, they must care enough to compile themselves, right? Any binaries compiled today will be EOL by then.

Generally that is not a concern because regular users won’t be able to rm anything else other than those in his own $HOME.

Another thing I want to say is, command line is for careful users. If someone is careless, they should create a wrapper around rm, or just use a FM.

LineageOS is very stable and usable as a daily driver, meanwhile PMOS struggles to deliver basic functionalities like calling and sending SMS.

LineageOS has a bigger community and supports more mainstream devices, where PMOS primarily focus on PINE64 and Purism.

PDF format author: I’m glad to present this device-agnostic, non-editable format!

People: Here is the 1001th tool to modify the content of a PDF file.

I ran it and followed a documentation to install Void Linux and now it runs so much smoother!

I come from a MCU background and feel the same way. Linux kernel is for consumer level stuff. For serious machinery, I choose a real-time OS like FreeaRTOS. Less code, and more low level code makes it easier to review, maintain, and have less chance to break.

crontab -e, right? 🤭

If a noob follows this command without checking, they deserve such a lesson.

Just saying.
