Sure that reveals your distro, but also consider what is in the logs you’re sharing. If you’re asking for help you probably also already said that you’re running Debian. Or the logs are full of apt logs already, querying a well known Debian mirror.
You’re right that PC is a fine default, but think about the whole picture as well.
The linked article.
So wait they implement autoplay, autoplay then ruins recommendations, and the fix is a sleep timer?
I’ve never needed this feature, but surely the sleep timer should be an OS feature? I assume Android and iOS have apps for this.
But also it it screws with recommendations, maybe improve that UI first?
This feels like a “faster horses” situation where they have no idea what to do next.
It’s funny because they add a bunch of stuff to try and justify the huge cost increase, but realistically I don’t want any of the new stuff they are trying to add.
Hopefully these sell terribly and will be at least half price after the holidays, then it makes sense.
I agree with you.
Edit: The steps below also fix the first issue. (Restart required?)
For your second issue it’s been discussed at https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/23856847 and https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/firefox-mobile-toolbar-redesign-needs-a-compact-mode/td-p/62031
You can use the secret menu to disable the navigation toolbar. https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/mobile/android/fenix/Secret-settings-debug-menu-instructions.html
As for the first problem, if someone finds a fix I’d be happy to know. (Edit: Err, actually these steps fixed it?)
Nobbleberry is my favorite show.
I have to disagree.
Casting from my phone is the easiest method. I can have YouTube playing and jump between the different streaming apps to look for something to play. It’s easy enough to have a conversation with someone to discuss what to play next.
Excellent! I look forward to it then.
I did, but that requires either using a smart TV, which isn’t happening, or the Android TV interface which would require a new device and then a clunky interface.
Casting from my phone is the only acceptable method and all other apps support it.
An Apple TV app with Chromecast support and I’ll finally subscribe. Apple has put out a handful of great shows but piracy is the only way to watch them for Android users.
I’ll die alone on this headphone jack hill if I need to, I only buy phones with headphone jacks.
Currently using a Motorola of some sort, replacement for another Motorola.
As far as I know. You could probably get fancy moving to dev mode and then install whatever, but I’m plenty happy with Debian.
Crostini. https://chromeos.dev/en/linux
A “one click” install of Debian (in a VM) that runs alongside your ChomeOS device. It’s a great starter tool for those getting used to Linux and even for the Linux Pro it gives you a terminal, which 99% of the time is all I need.
You can use GUI applications as well so GIMP and other tools are available.
Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
I just want to second the dirty gin martini.
I’ve never been a fan of the martini, but dirty gin is excellent.

That’s a link to the most recent release of Firefox and the security vulnerabilities that were fixed.
You’ll notice the first one listed says, “This issue could allow an attacker to perform remote code execution and sandbox escape.”
So if you visited a site that exploited that bug, it escaped the sandbox and ran whatever code it wanted to. Since you were running as root it could do anything it wants. Your device is now the property of someone else. Potentially all your data has been stolen. You probably didn’t even notice.
Now. Realistically. You probably didn’t get exploited. Your device may not be vulnerable to that particular bug. But new bugs are found, and fixed, and created every day. Can you be sure you weren’t exploited?
Let’s look at it a different way. Think of it like driving a car with no seatbelt or airbags. As long as you don’t crash, you’re fine. The car still works fine without seatbelts and you have more freedom to move your arms around.
Let’s look at it a different way. Do you ever lock the door to your home/apartment? Heck do you even close the door? Why not leave it wide open?
At the end of the day security is about layers and the trade offs for convenience. You can run KDE as root, and you can run Firefox as root. You’ll probably be fine. It’s like driving without a seatbelt or leaving your front door wide open, but you can do it. If you do drive with a seatbelt and at least close your front door, you can probably run KDE and Firefox as a regular user.
I always assume people doing this are unhinged/crazy and I definitely don’t want to deal with that.
Sometimes they look nice enough.
Usually what happens is myself and everyone else on the train look at each other, have a shared look of “Morons? Am I right?” and then when that person leaves, we all share a group laugh.
So I guess what I’d say is, if you do this, know that everyone is laughing at you. If you say you don’t care, that’s a lie, you do care, that’s why you’re doing what you’re doing. This is not positive attention, this is negative attention. Please take a moment and reflect to be a force for positivity and not negativity.
It’s just a label. No money. Labels are free.
Out of curiosity what sort of safety did you think an unencrypted hard drive had?
I mean no offense and I think it’s a perfectly fine question to ask, I just want to understand what you expected.
which instance do I even choose
Literally any of them. That’s the answer.
I use flat case most of the time, but I also try to stick to single word files so there is no case to get in the way.
I think for documents I might share like a PDF I’d use Pascal case.
In a classroom or teaching setting I will sometimes use Kebab case as I find it is the least confusing and makes it extra clear where the word division is. Similarly I avoid Dot notation since it’s confusing for folks coming from a Windows world.
And I would avoid Screaming because that’s just too loud anywhere.
