everett,

Ctrl+F’d for this.

They don’t “legitimately believe” anything.

I’m not sure if you can show/hide like that, but as a workaround you can toggle auto-hiding with a qdbus command, and set a keyboard shortcut to run that.

I think OP said

if a window is fullscreen

as opposed to simply being maximized.

KDE would liKe to Know your loKation.

everett,

Don’t miss this entire genre: classic LucasArts point-and-click adventure games! Sam & Max Hit the Road, Full Throttle and Monkey Island are a few of the stand-outs for me, and they all run on Linux via the amazing ScummVM.

everett,

That’s awesome, I didn’t realize that ResidualVM had merged with ScummVM.

everett,

Same deal here. Text is too big, tool icons are just about right, brushes and patterns are microscopic.

What to include in a backup? (Ubuntu)

Hi! A friend just recommended the backup tool that comes with Ubuntu. I took a look at it and was wondering what you guys include and exclude from the backups. I just installed wire guard VPN and but the config file in the etc/wireguard folder, where it belongs. I would have to include this folder as well if I want to keep my...

everett,

Skipping the OS backup is reasonable, but you probably want to at least save a package list. Add something like dpkg -l > ~/packages.txt to your backup script.

everett,

There would be too much fog.

everett,

Not for everyone, but if “collection of perl scripts” sounds like your jam, GnuPod still works for a CLI option.

everett,

everett,

I don’t know what this says about me, but my brain thought I was looking at Weird Al’s Even Worse at first.

everett,

Kind words, ferret. Looking at the cover again, I think the short legs on the skateboard may have primed my brain to think “comedy!”

everett,

This may depend on browser but you can double-tap a paragraph to quickly zoom the page so the text is full-width. Of course there’s also pinch-zoom or reader mode…

Thoughts on BOOX Tab Ultra C? (shop.boox.com)

Does anyone here have a BOOX e-paper tablet? I’m a big fan of e-paper devices—I love my Pebble smartwatch, Kindle Paperwhite, and Light Phone II. I’ve been eyeing the Tab Ultra C for quite a while, and I am considering the pros and cons. Mostly, I intend to use it for browsing the web and maybe some light note taking and...

everett,

The color screen of e-readers is too dark for me and substantially lacks contrast. It’s very noticable. The layer for pen recognition already makes the screen darker, but the color display is adding a lot more to the darkness and lack of contrast.

There were a handful of reasons I returned mine, but this was the biggest one. Color eink isn’t ready yet, and the limited color palette wasn’t even the worst part… it was the dark screen. Needing to use the backlight so often is just disappointing, and turning it on negates all the good stuff about eink, making you feel like you’re using a really shitty tablet. Maybe things will be better in a generation or two, but if you need color you might as well get a conventional tablet.

everett,

The vast majority of people have no idea who he is. That doesn’t make them stupid.

everett,

Remarkable eink tablets. Buried deep in the settings they actually give you the root password so you can SSH in. Also, it comes with an epic .vimrc file.

everett,

AlternativeTo lists open source alternatives to AlternativeTo.

everett,

Imagine not learning your lesson about going for the hook.

everett,

The opening frames still make me think I’m about to see the Interplay logo.

everett,

The Wayback Machine’s earliest capture is from 2000 and the text references an event from 1998, so that helps narrow it down a little.
