I just don't get the non voter. Granted I'm not a US citizen, but not voting in your election is effectively voting for fascist theocracy. Your electoral system sucks but if I could choose between having an arm or my heart removed I know what I'd choose.

 

I'm testing, after many recommendations, a mint installation on my Lenovo yoga 720.

I found the settings for touchpad gestures but my question is: how do I bind a keyboard shortcut to a gesture?

I tried a workaround and installed touché, since my understanding was that mint uses touchegg. But that worked only until the first reboot and now seems broken. If possibleI'd prefer to just use whatever is implemented anyway.

So, is there a way to bind a keyboard shortcut to a touchpad gesture?

See my comment below, we're moving to gsuite. Basically, we have a problem with people not using the SharePoint but instead sending poorly version numbered documents per mail.
My argument was that if you're forced to work online you're more likely to do so in the shared folder. We'll see if that's true but at least we can get rid of office. Most of the organisation is on macOS anyway. And we use zulip for communication.

Ding ding ding

From one evil to another...

The discussion went like nobody is properly using the SharePoint, but instead people send emails with poorly version numbered documents. After a couple of attempts to educate the users my argument was to drop the hammer: if you're forced to work online you're more likely to work in the shared folders. If that's true, we'll see. But in the meantime I can get rid of windows. Most of the organisation is on macOS anyway.

 

After convincing my employer to move away from MS office I can finally make the permanent switch away from windows.

I settled on pop_os for now since it supports hybrid Nvidia graphics out of the box and I am a noob.

Two questions:

  1. I used OneDrive, and especially the file on-demand (all files on server visible in explorer but only downloaded when needed) feature a lot. What cloud storage provider has the best Linux integration? I dabbled with NeXtCloUD but the Linux client is not great, especially the file on-demand implementation.

  2. What are best practices for managing apps? The last time I entertained the idea of switching, I ended up with applications installed from the snap store, flatpacks, some appimages, some through apt. It quickly gets confusing for me when I want a specific program but it, f.ex., is only distributed through the snap store. Is there a GUI (I know) way to see all applications, where they're installed from, with an easy remove button? Akin to what windows offers?

Können wir uns nicht vielleicht auf wirklich wichtig Themen konzentrieren? Klimakleber, Tempolimit, Migranten, Arbeitstotalverweigerer???! Was interessiert es denn wie China oder Russland Einfluss nehmen wenn die Ampel eh schon alles verbietet, inklusive unser christlich jüdischen Kultur?!?!

Warte auf Rückmeldung von einer zweiten Runde Bewerbungsgespräch. Die haben nach Referenzen gefragt und ich darf morgen ganz eng mit meinem Chef arbeiten den ich letzte Woche auf dem Anruf des potentiellen neuen Arbeitgebers vorbereitet habe. Eigentlich OK, er versteht es. Was mir den Schlaf raubt ist, bekomme ich dir Stelle????

Wait, what?? I might have to replay it!

Bullshit, by 2030 everything will be doomscrollable thanks to generative text AI. Our marketing department has done some research and concluded that our customers will stop using their device if they hit the bottom.

Slaughter them for one last time and spare their future generations by removing their lineage from existence. Nbd

Or maybe it's because nuclear power is ridiculously expensive and new designs are still a black hole in the budget. Wind and solar exist, right now, and are also carbon free, while being cheaper and not leaving the next 100 generations with radioactive waste. For which, by the way, we have but one final storage solution. Or is the facility in Finnland even up and running yet?

True, but people generally understand hammers. Llms? Not so much

Nah bro we'll fix it software. Like virtual backgrounds but for sound bro!

 

The recent chat bot advances have pretty much changed my life. I used to get anxiety by receiving mails and IMs, sometimes even from friends. I lost friendships over not replying. My main issue being that I am sometimes get completely stuck in a loop of how to formulate things in the best way to the point of just abandoning the contact. I went to therapy for that and it helped. But the LLM advancements of the recent years have been a game changer.

Now I plop everything into ChatGPT, cleaning out personal information as much as possible, and let the machine write. Often I'll make some adjustments but just having a starting point has changed my life.

So, my answer, I use it all the fucking time.

 

Moin!

In der Klickbox meiner SRAM S7 ist Feuchtigkeit. Das Lastenrad steht draußen und ich hab keine Möglichkeit es irgendwo geschützt unterzustellen.
Ich weiß jetzt schon das mir das Ding einfrieren wird, letzte Nacht hatten wir das erste Mal Frost.

Nun die Frage: was tun? Kann man die Box irgendwie Trockenlegen? Wobei das Wasser ja wohl zurück kommen wird, es ist hier auch ständig nass im Winter.

Über Tipps von euch freue ich mich!

 

Basically the title. I'm on Fedora with gnome 44. I set up a custom keyboard shortcut to open nautilus but if I'm in a different directory than home it opens a new window. I'm using the command nautilus.
What I would like is a shortcut to bring the currently open window into the foreground (no matter where I navigated to) and, if there is no open window, open nautilus in the home directory. Possible?

 

Moin!

Hab hier einen 1 jährigen Kollegen der gerne mit im Fahrrad fährt, sowohl hinter mir im Kindersitz, als auch vor mir im Lastenrad. Da natürlich mit entsprechendem Einsatz bzw. bald 5-punkt Gurt.

Jetzt zum Problem. Abhängig von der Tageszeit schläft er gerne auch ein. So nach allem über 15min Fahrzeit eigentlich, es sei denn wir haben gerade Nickerchen gemacht. Bis dato habe ich angehalten und dann weiter geschoben und ihn getragen. Hab die Ausflüge immer so geplant, dass wir nie zu weit von zu Hause weg waren.

Aber bald starten wir z.B. die zweite Runde Babyschwimmen und ich würde gerne mit dem Rad zum Schwimmbad. Bin mir aber zu 99,999% sicher auf dem Rückweg wird gepennt.

Gibt's da ne clever Lösung? Bin irgendwie ratlos, der Kopf baumelt schon ganz schön heftig herum im Schlaf.

 

Just recently got arch on my laptop and I'm liking it quite a lot. A breath of fresh air for old hardware and with tlp some substantially better battery life as well.
My big problem is that I use MS office quite heavily for work, including OneNote and OneDrive.

I found onedriver which is an excellent OneDrive on-demand solution.
But I'm at a loss in regards to office. I tried wps, only office, LibreOffice, MS office online. But they all have at least one document of the ones I'm working on right now that doesn't get rendered properly. Can't believe how poor Microsoft's online solution is tbh. I have a pretty big word document that gets completely butchered.

Anyway, what are my options? Is it worth trying something like cassowary? Setting up a VM is probably just going to ruin my battery life and negate any performance advantage I gained by ditching Windows.

Thoughts?
Btw, if this is the wrong community for this kind of question I apologize.
