kabe, to linux in Linux really has come a long way

Interesting. Do you know if it works with an existing LUKS-encrypted installation?

kabe, (edited ) to linux in List of useful BTRFS tools
@kabe@lemmy.world avatar

Nice list.

Depending on your package manager, there are very handy snapper plugins that do automated pre/post snapshots for package installation/removal.

For Arch-based systems it’s snap-pac, and Fedora has one too (although I can’t remember the name).

@kabe@lemmy.world avatar

OnlyOffice is the main alternative to Libre these days.

I personally prefer it because offers better compatibility with the Microsoft 365 documents I need for work.

Tela icons.

(if you look at the night theme shot, there are other details of the setup in the terminal output)

If anyone is wondering, you can download the .jxl files from here:

Yeah, the customization might not be as extensive as Plasma, but you can certainly add a ton of extra functionality with extensions.

Yeah, so Gnome has an extension called Night Theme Switcher which automatically changes your background, icons, theme, cursor etc. based on a user-defined day/night schedule. It works great.

Arc Menu is another extension which gives Gnome a standard start menu (since it doesn’t come with one by default) in the top lefthand corner. It also comes with a KRunner-like app launcher that pops up in the middle of the screen instead of using the default Gnome Overview UI.

Both these extensions make Gnome feel a little more natural for desktop use, IMO.

Gnome + Dash to Dock + Arc Menu. Nothing too crazy.

“We have investigated ourselves and found no evidence of wrongdoing.”

kabe, to world in Biden calls for 'immediate ceasefire' in Gaza
@kabe@lemmy.world avatar

That’s why I did a double take when I saw the above headline. Biden finally putting his foot down and strong-arming Israel into a ceasefire would be huge.

But alas…

@kabe@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks, I couldn’t find that part anywhere.

I’m personally not sure that saying “We’re trying to work out … an immediate ceasefire” has nearly the same urgency as as calling for one, but hey at least it’s something.

Sadly, this headline seems to be misleading. Checking for additional sources, I can find none that confirm that he actually called for a ceasefire.

According to the Associated Press, he did decry the loss of life in Gaza and announce that the US are about to commence airdrops of humanitarian aid, but at no point did he seem to do what this headline implies.

A Reuters article covering the same conference mentions the possibility of a ceasefire, but this apparently referred to a previous conversation a few days ago.

Unless anyone can find evidence to the contrary, I have to assume that this Newshub article is clickbait.

@kabe@lemmy.world avatar

My bad, thanks for the correction.

I haven’t had much luck installing via wine or bottles at all. Hasn’t ever worked properly for me. I’m not bothered enough to install the Snap either, lol.

I have a Windows VM that I run it in instead, please deadbeef is good enough for my Linux system.

@kabe@lemmy.world avatar

Tell me about it.

I also use deadbeef because of the plug-in support, although I haven’t experienced much lag myself.

The media library management definitely doesn’t come anywhere close to FB2K, though, sadly.
