Railison,

I’ve had success with Focalboard and noticed nobody is using it here! Should I look at alternatives?

Railison,

Me: how many applications have you got installed? SimplyMepis: Yes.

Railison,

When I think of AI ruining humanity, this is how I picture it

Railison,

Reading pages out loud has been an unexpected hit for me on the latest iOS. I’d love this in Firefox too.

Railison,

Ooh will try thanks for the heads up!

Railison,

I love the tiling interface. I haven’t touched it since they decided to start developing COSMIC though.

I’m gonna wait until they get everything up to date before I use it again.

Railison,

“Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life”

Railison,

When I was a kid I remember being confused at what the installation questions were.

If I were my own parent, I’d explain how the OS can sort itself (FHS, Windows, macOS). This gives confidence for installing and inspecting software.

Next, I’d explain how drives work and how they’re represented in different systems. That means partitions and formatting too.

That would then take me to explaining what’s involved in OS installs, erasing everything, dual booting, retaining personal files, etc.

Railison,

Let the break it, and like other things in life, make (teach) them fix it if they want to keep using it.

Railison,

I’m looking forward to the Pop! team getting this out so they can focus on getting the rest of their distro up to date.

Railison,

So is this Oracle’s fault for over promising, council’s fault for not communicating its needs, or a lack of training/induction?

Railison,

There are some gaps in this video owing to the guy not knowing some different keyboard shortcuts in macOS and just assuming they don’t exist.

I’d say macOS is still more consistent than Linux but it certainly peaked in Snow Leopard.

Railison,

In my own case I’d put it down to Flatpak etc. finally resolving the software installation problem.

Installing most Linux OSes has been easy enough for decades, but a program not in your distro’s repos could be a nightmare to get working.

Railison,

Memories 🥲

Railison,

I keep finding myself drifting back to XFCE

Railison,

And the MATE user management app can be downloaded and installed on XFCE, works quite well

Railison,

One way I do TeX now is a few templates (letter, memo, etc) and circulate files in PDF.

If you must use Word to circulate files, consider Pandoc as a way to get them out.

Railison,

ELI5 the difference between the white badged Teams and the dark badged Teams

Railison,

I’ve eaten this “torisashi” in Kagoshima before. Didn’t mind it, I was always curious about what rare chicken would taste like.

HOWEVER: the raw chicken served in Japan isn’t regular chicken. The birds are slaughtered and prepared in a very specific way so that bacteria are kept in control.
