First saying that tabs are a no go, then proceeding to deliberate on the correct amount of spaces...

Long live tabs!

Nice, used to love playing with p5 back in the day, good to have such tools for Lua which is often recommend as a beginner language.

I wish the author did implement some built-in libraries like middleclass, that would allow people that don't necessarily understand how metatables to fake classes in more elaborate ways than what's showcased in the instances.lua example.

Clipboard in Linux is weird. Can you replicate this:

  1. Copy text
  2. Close the application you copied from
  3. Paste into a different application
  4. Nothing appears

If so, that means you don't have a clipboard manager running, default for KDE is Klipper I believe.

Most companies I’ve sent data deletion request just do it, but when they start to argue I just hit them with most ridiculous bullshit while acting like the most privileged bitch until they do it my way.

Try saying no, see what happens.
Fearmongering, gaslighting, lawful threats, technical jargon and the word ‘rape’ are your friend.

Just recently when requesting GDPR data deletion from UK-based company they also wanted to confirm my identity, hell they will.

I hit them with the fact that a person controlling the e-mail address can use their ‘Forgot password’ feature to take control over the account and access my sensitive data they’re in possession of or steal my identity using their own services. I also not so kindly suggested that I’ll report them so their security practices are investigated for the safety of their customers.

…they deleted the data without any further questions.

PS. Not sure about UK laws, but for GDPR: Always request confirmation of the deletion and the detailed steps they’ve taken to ensuring your data has been properly erased. They’re obligated to tell you that upon request.

Just tried this out using a typical temporary email address (temp-mail.org) and a VPN (AirVPN).
I was only asked to confirm my e-mail address within 3 days, never for a phone address or any banking details.

Judging by the first post you’ve linked to, it’s only necessary for paid accounts or free trials.
The person in the second post is trying to register via GitHub / Google, well… sucks for them.

JetBrains Mono all the way.

There’s also a new kid in town - Monaspace, its texture healing feature is pretty interesting. I might give it a try later.

Jitsi, the open-source video conferencing platform, now requires a Google, Microsoft, or Facebook account for their online service ( jitsi.org )

While Jitsi is open-source, most people use the platform they provide, meet.jit.si, for immediate conference calls. They have now introduced a “Know Your Customer” policy and require at least one of the attendees to log in with a Facebook, Github (Microsoft), or Google account....

Its like when OnlyFans declares they wouldn’t allow adult content

So… Tumblr?

UPDATE: So after I broke grub, I tried reinstalling Fedora. Now windows has disappeared from BIOS

EDIT: So after all that, I was able to reinstall windows and download Macrium reflect + my backup. First time I tried to recover it, it failed for some reason, but the second time around I was able to restore it successfully. I’m now back where I started, thank you everyone!...

Jesus, stop. You probably only removed the boot entry, happened to me before. Download Windows ISO, put it on a pendrive, boot into it and navigate to the terminal. Then look up a guide on how to restore the boot entry, should be just couple of simple commands and you’re done.

If you are too lazy, at least boot into Linux, mount the Windows drive and back up your stuff.

Honestly I just watched some Indian YouTube video, I recognize some of the commands, so it’s probably it.

UI? Horrendous.
VPN? Terrific.

How is a desktop environment gonna fix Nvidia being incompatible with Wayland?

adamnejm ,
@adamnejm@programming.dev avatar

Linux graphics stack only supports implicit sync, Nvidia only supports explicit sync. It’s not something that a desktop environment can fix as patches are needed to be implemented in Nvidia drivers, Wayland protocols, XWayland and maybe even Mesa or the kernel itself.

I would like to help an open-source project with UI design and UX design. I have over 18 years of experience in the field and have worked with desktop and mobile software on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and Windows Mobile/Windows Phone. Unfortunately my knowledge of Linux is very limited but I'm eager to learn. Could you help me find a project? @thelinuxEXP @linux @macrumors @windowscentral @windows

Definitely not a studio quality, but I use Sudotack ST-800 along with noise-suppression-for-voice to get rid of static, key presses, etc.
The price to quality ratio is amazing (obviously the boom arm that comes with it is trash, but again, fine for the price).
