I got a ticket for a remote site that said “there’s an error message and the computer doesn’t start” . there was no clarification what the error message actually said.
I spent about 20 minutes driving out there, turn the computer on:
“System battery voltage low. Press F2 to continue”
I did not have a battery with me. If they just said what the error was, I would have brought a battery with me. Now they have to wait for another tech to be scheduled to drive out to this location which could be a week later.
In the open source world, I take that as a highlight, not a warning.
This is the first I’m hearing of Ladybird. Looks really interesting and glad to see there are more options for browsers coming
Well that’s egg on my face.
You’re on the wrong instance for that
I found the opposite with Gnome which is why I switched over to KDE.
And that’s the beauty, we are free to choose. I’m glad Gnome works well for you.
Thank you for pointing that out. I knew Firefox had updated to enable desktop add-ons to work with mobile but I didn’t see Sponsor Block when I took a quick look.
For those that don’t know, you can use three numbers, zero through eight, with the chmod command. it takes the binary of each digit to set the permissions.
$ chmod 644
6 | 4 | 4
110 | 100 | 100
rw- | r-- | r--
I’ve really fallen in love with the Aves gallery app. It’s finally got me started with organising and tagging my photos.
Another recommendation, especially for addresses and points of interest, is https://every-door.app/
It’s not as pretty as StreetConplete but it’s fine to work with.
You can also make this the default behaviour as you start typing a command.
Create ~/.inputrc and add these lines:
$include /etc/inputrc
## arrow up
"\e[A":history-search-backward
## arrow down
"\e[B":history-search-forward```
FlorisBoard has been a great keyboard. The last proper release was over a year ago but the developer is actively working on a big update which will add word suggestion.
I have no personal experience with it but I see Nobara mentioned often, especially in regards to the Microsoft Surface Tablets. Hopefully someone else with more experience can chime in on it.
F-Stop adds an XMP tag imbedded into the image file. I’m going to assume Aves does the same but I haven’t used it much yet to know.
I would love to be able to find an image service (like PhotoPrism) I can run on my server that can read the tags that I like to use (Date/time, geo location, title/descriptions, and faces). I want that info in the image file itself so that I can easily switch to another service if needed.
I’m still trying to find a way to make back-up copies of the original and then tag/organize photos to be used with a self-hosted viewer, whatever it may be.
FlorisBoard for several months now. It has no text prediction
The good news is that feature is currently in development. There’s a beta build on GitHub that has it sort of implemented. There’s some details on the FlorisBoard matrix channel on getting it.
M.A.L.P., for when I’m playing music on the house system
Do you mind explaining your setup a bit more? I’ve currently got a few Sonos speakers but I don’t like being locked into their system and have always been interested in a more open setup.
I’ve seen Snapchat and I know of MPD (but don’t fully understand it, to be honest) but it seems there isn’t much information about these types of setups.
I was using F-stop previously for the map feature and the ability to add descriptions to the photos (I love having notes on the photos but hate being locked into a specific app like Google Photos).
Aves has a much nicer UI and can edit the geotag information, too. Glad I found this.
It fully depends on the area. My city has only a few hardcore mappers, but that’s all it takes to make it really detailed.
free to just set up an instance where a bot reposts whatever gets posted to reddit front page, or a specific sub.
https://lemmit.online/ is that instance
The app mentioned on the post, Organic Maps, has Android Auto. OsmAnd is another app that I know has it as well.
