  • What is/was your distrohopping journey?
    • Started on a Windows Vista machine, but I dual-booted Mint on it when it started to run slow.
    • The software broke or got corrupted, so I installed Lubuntu.
    • Lubuntu started to freeze, so I installed Mint again.

    The hardware was really outdated at this point, so I got a new machine. Windows 8.1.

    Got a different new computer with Windows 10. Started trying out lots of distros of VMs.

    • Switched out the drive and installed... OpenSUSE, I think?
    • Catastrophic system error during an update, left the system corrupted. I installed Debian.
    • Another system error (which may have been caused by me) led me to install FreeBSD.
    • FreeBSD was usable, but not super usable. I installed OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
    • Catastrophic system error during an update, left the system corrupted. I installed Debian (again).

    tldr: Windows Vista -> Mint -> Lubuntu -> Mint again -> Windows 8.1 (new computer) -> Windows 10 (new computer) -> OpenSUSE Leap -> Debian -> FreeBSD -> OpenSUSE Tumbleweed -> Debian again

  • What’s the best ad blocker for you? - Firefox Add-ons Blog
  • Got a source about Adguard? I use it on my phone, and I don't get any ads.

  • Are there any EV cars without any "technology"?
  • Wait, they're closed-sourcing Ubuntu? Doesn't the GPL say that any fork or derivative of any GPL'd product has to have the GPL? It's supposed to propagate.

  • Do all DEs store the trash in the same place?
  • I need the exact location of the trash so I can specify it in the excludes for my backup tool. If it changes with the DE, then I have to change the excludes. But it doesn't.

  • Do all DEs store the trash in the same place?

    On Cinnamon and LxQt, the trash is in ~/.local/share/Trash. Is it the same for all desktop environments?

    If intramolecular ionic bonds are stronger than intermolecular hydrogen bonds, how can water dissolve/break apart ionic compounds?
  • Interesting!

    And if the solution is hotter, the water molecules have more energy, so they can dissolve more solid solute? Is that what happens?

    Dark Reader extension doesn't work
  • All of them, I think. Duckduckgo, Startpage search, Stack Exchange, Github, the list goes on.

    I restarted the browser twice.

  • Dark Reader extension doesn't work
  • Yes, I am using the flatpak version. I'm on Debian and there is only the flatpak version.

    Firefox is also flatpak.

  • Dark Reader extension doesn't work

    I know that the dark mode setting is disabled by Resist Fingerprinting. I am not using that, I am using the Dark Reader extension. The extension still doesn't work, but it works on Firefox.

    Other extensions I have installed: Ublock Origin, Decentraleyes, Skip Redirect, Onetab, Old Reddit Redirect

    Librewolf version: 124.0.1-1

  • Looking for a simple, time-based night color control
  • Now I'm on Cinnamon. I am using QRedshift. It works, and I can set the time manually.

    Lesson: Don't use redshift-gtk, use QRedshift!

  • tumblr reading comprehension: electric boogaloo
  • Even though you understood it as "influence the dice without external phenomena", and it may be stated elsewhere in the worksheet, the question doesn't explicitly state "no external phenomena". Just weight the dice.

  • Tumblr's geographical offences (Open post for more images)
  • Is this satire?

    Ye gods, I hope this is satire.

  • Looking for a simple, time-based night color control

    I used to be on KDE. It had night color control integrated. Then I switched to XFCE, and it did not. So I installed Redshift.

    Oops! Redshift requires location access so it can automatically set the color temperature based on the sun's position in the sky. Now it doesn't work when the network is deactivated. And on my system, I can't set it to redden/bluen based on the time only.

    I go to AlternativeTo, to find an alternative. It looks like all of them do the same thing, or are discontinued.

    Is that what everyone wants? Is that all that's out there? Just ""smart"" programs that access your location to automagically change the colors based on astronomical events?

    Even on Windows you could set the night color control based on the time. Am I living in a backwards world where Linux uses the invasive complicated way and Windows uses the private simple way?

    Is there a simple program out there that can set night color control with only the time, none of that other crap?

  • Evil Flag/Flag of the Enemy

    !

    !

    I made these to be a flag of evil or a flag of the enemy. Can be used for fictional Obviously Evil countries or for aggressor aircraft. Which one do you like better?

  • KMail reading pane [SOLVED]

    How do I get the preview pane in KMail to stay the same size? I can resize it, but whenever I restart the app, the preview pane is back to the default size.
