I just became the maintainer of the AUR package of ibus-uniemoji, please comment there if it's still not working for you. I also updated to the new upstream version, it looks much better than on the gif.

There is a beta version of Xournal++ for mobile devices: https://github.com/xournalpp/xournalpp_mobile/

I never used it, only the desktop version, that was good.

Edit: on a closer inspection it seems like abandoned, but apk direct download is available.

Thanks for the context!

It wasn't clear for me what the hell is a "Global Shortcut" I heard the term first time in my life, I found the answer in the upstream PR:

It's designed so that applications can register actions that can be triggered globally (i.e. regarless of the system's state, like focus).

It's strange it wasn't possible until now, or the main thing it's now DE independent?

On Gnome I use Run or raise extension, and with this I can run or switch to running apps with global shortcuts, so this was definitely working from Gnome extensions.

But the required config changes can affect those as well.

Like last week I had to change repositories in pacman.conf. It also affected endeavour, as it doesn't have separate repos: https://archlinux.org/news/cleaning-up-old-repositories/

This mkinitcpio config change should have effected all Arch based distros: https://archlinux.org/news/mkinitcpio-hook-migration-and-early-microcode/

Is this article ai generated? If it isn't why there is an "AI Labs" text at the top?

XP to Vista is a wrong comparison, as Vista changed the driver system, and on a lot computers it was impossible to upgrade, as drivers for a lot of stuffs wasn't updated for Vista. Non rolling upgrades similar to the recent windows big updates: it take some time, changes the wallpaper, but not something very complex...

From the post:

But first question, as someone who isn’t tech inclined and tinkering [...] that runs out of the box without me having to install additional software manually or at least automatic setup wizards because like hardware

Don't recommend Arch to users who doesn't want to tinker please. I know, I use Arch. Arch regularly requires user intervention, you should see them on the news: https://archlinux.org/news/ You can see, 3-4 times a year you have to fiddle with some settings, otherwise you can get an unbootable system.

And that's how we get "the (unrealistic) expectation I had of Linux was all command line stuff and techno babble."

But his prime was like 10 years ago? So they are in their mid twenties now.

The "subscribe to pewdiepie" mass shooting was in 2019, 6 years ago, and he was already a household name at that point

There are some open issues about this, you can follow them here:

This topic pops up in random news sites like every 5 years, and usually the conclusion is people with these names have less and less problems, as systems evolve.

Nowadays names which looks like some vulgar words cause more problems, it's called the Scunthorpe problem from the city of Scunthorpe. As this is a shitty article, this actual problem is not even mentioned, classic.

You should also post it to !newcommunities@lemmy.world

 

Around two years ago, we've merged the [community] repository into [extra] as part of the git migration. In order to not break user setups, we kept these repositories around in an unused and empty state. We're going to clean up these old repositories on 2025-03-01.

On systems where /etc/pacman.conf still references the old [community] repository, pacman -Sy will return an error on trying to sync repository metadata.

The following deprecated repositories will be removed: [community], [community-testing], [testing], [testing-debug], [staging], [staging-debug].

Please make sure to remove all use of the aforementioned repositories from your /etc/pacman.conf (for which a .pacnew was shipped with pacman>=6.0.2-7)!

I don't know why Ars Technica has so many civ 7 reviews. Previous one was 2 weeks ago.

TLDR VerdictThe good

  • The ages system helps to solve many longstanding problems with the overall arc of a Civilization game
  • Influence yield makes diplomacy better than it's ever been
  • Tweaks and additions turn building city districts into the full realization of what VI was hinting at but never achieved
  • The visual presentation is excellent, with sprawling, intricate cities and detailed leaders
  • Several additions streamline annoying busywork the franchise is known for without curtailing depth

The bad

  • Content is light even though systems are robust; there are no scenarios at all
  • The final few turns of an age end up feeling wonky
  • You can't rename your cities for some reason

The ugly

  • Some launch-window bugs and other issues might make it worth waiting a few weeks before digging in
