muhyb,

I also like how Newpipe can open that link.

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

muhyb,

I wouldn’t call it hate, more like disapprobation with Canonical’s choices. No one have to use Ubuntu, we have tons of distro to choose. If someone wants LTS, you can always go pure Debian way, it’s not hard to install as it’s used to be (for beginners), or there is Linux Mint Debian Edition. You can easily use flatpaks with these and keep your software up-to-date.

muhyb,

If you have access to a 3D printer, ugly part is nothing to worry about.

muhyb,

I didn’t mean that for the screen and I’m sure you know it, so never mind…

What is a small .EPUB reader that is easy to install for my small Puppy remaster?

My question is basically the title. I’m making my own Puppy Linux remaster and it already has a .PDF reader for it that is very small. I think it’s called Evince? It has a native GTK UI and starts in a second, uses very little RAM and CPU. Now I need a .EPUB reader. I’ve seen a couple different .EPUB reader apps out there...

muhyb,

+1 for Zathura.

muhyb,

It was perfect. I don’t understand why everything must lose its soul with material design.

muhyb,

I use Simple Keyboard from F-Droid (rkkr’s, not the one that sold to an ad company) and it’s quite nice.

muhyb,

If you don’t work at Valve, these are pretty much meaningless.

muhyb,

I can see how this is a good exercise for the one who makes it and maybe for others who are interested in the field. However, just because it has Steam in the title, doesn’t mean it’s related to a gaming community.

muhyb,

Well I didn’t say anything about the video (though apparently it sounded kinda harsh, could’ve worded better). But yeah, while the video is not perfect, it raises some very good points about Steam’s UX. Just not the correct community. However since Lemmy isn’t big enough as Reddit, I guess this is acceptable for now.

muhyb,

I was sick of Reddit’s clickbait titles. It’s sad to see they moved here as well.

muhyb,

I suppose that’s the main problem, I didn’t check the article since the title reeks clickbaity enough. However I wouldn’t share an article if the the title obviously is a clickbait, I’m sure there are bunch of respectable sources about this development.

muhyb,

Why though?

muhyb,

At least the foot’s shape looks like G, or more like Ğ.

muhyb,

I started learning things on Lemmy, just like was on Reddit, which says we’re on the right track. Go Lemmy.

muhyb,

You’re all good to go.

Just wanted to add this though: Pick some of your USB stick and make it your emergency Linux live install media.

Also it would be a nice idea to set your /home directory to a seperate drive, it’s like using D: on Windows.

Good luck on your journey!

muhyb,

I have Nano 7 as well and I tried many things over the years. However there isn’t a good solution to this. I have a Windows 7 VM just for my iPod and installed an old iTunes just to put music on it. You can use Gnome Boxes for this job.

muhyb,

Sure.

First, install Gnome Boxes. Then find a Windows 7 ISO, any will do.

Let me open my PC for the next steps.

muhyb,

OK I’m here.

Click on + to select the ISO from file. It will start the installation process. Install Windows 7 with its steps. 20 GB space and 4 GB RAM would suffice for virtual machine.

muhyb,

You can get yourself a Windows 7 ISO from here. massgrave.dev/windows_7_links.html

muhyb,

Once you installed it, start the VM and plug in your iPod. For VM to see it, on right top there is a … menu, go preferences from there. Switch to Devices & Shares tab. It should see your iPod now, just enable it. Also set a shared directory from below so you can put your music files there before uploading them to your iPod. This is the iTunes version I use: www.filehorse.com/download-itunes-64/35820/

Before forget, use a 64-bit Windows.

muhyb,

Don’t grab the first one. :)

Pick one what language you need and also pick a 64-bit one.

muhyb,

OK, ping me when you need.

muhyb,

No problem! Just helping a fellow penguin. :)

muhyb,

Rhythmbox or GTKpod don’t work with iPod Nano 6 & 7.

muhyb,

Being happy for someone else is also kind, so likewise.

Also helping people who use FOSS has some weird pleasure. :)

muhyb,

How did it go? Hopefully successful?

muhyb,

Worry not. Which step did not go as expected?

muhyb,

Can you check the device manager inside Windows for this:

Uninstall the “Red Hat VirtIO Ethernet Adapter” in the device manager, after that, simply search for new hardware devices.

muhyb,

Even if you cannot connect to internet (normally that shouldn’t be a problem since VM use the internet through host machine), you can still download the said iTunes outside of the VM and install it via shared folder. In the end you don’t need internet to put iPod some music.

muhyb,

Is that really surprising?

Root vs ADB Uninstall for Debloating

If I only wanted to degoogle and disable other manufacturer’s bloatware from my Android device, is using adb to “uninstall” the system apps from user 0 pretty much as effective as rooting and using something like debloat terminal while rooted or are there bypasses that make rooting the better option? I’m not concerned...

muhyb,

adb uninstall will cover your needs and if you are using a banking app they won’t let you use them if you root the device. So even if you choose the root way, it’s recomended to relock root once you’re done.

Also not sure about stock ROMs but be careful with core apps. For example, in LineageOS if you remove file manager that way you bork the system because any other file manager use the initial file manager.

muhyb,

Isn’t that an ethnic group? WTH?

muhyb,

Ah that is confusing. Thanks for clarification.

muhyb,

For BG3, don’t search something about it, just start and play. You don’t need to know anything prior, however it’s a role-playing game so play accordingly what kind of character you created. You can save-scumming if you want if some desicion you made leads to something bad, though they all the part of the game. Just play and experience.

For games like Overwatch, it isn’t complicated at all. It just requires you to play it constantly and learn counter measures just by playing. Learning them is the fun part, overthinking about them not so much.

To be fair when I see “complex game” part, I was kinda expexting some advanced building games, something like Factorio, maybe RimWorld.

Anyway, also you don’t have to like any games even if they are overwhelmingly positive titles. Just find what you like and dig in.

muhyb, (edited )

Try Mitsukuni’s suggestion here and adjust it to your needs (This one is Dawn of Discovery but same as Anno 1404).

muhyb,

Oh it’s history edition. Well, I completely missed that part. It seems people solved it with a Lutris script.

By the way, since you have Nvidia and you use EndeavourOS, you are probably on driver 545. That driver has a problem with Proton 8 and later ones. Maybe trying Proton 7 would help.

muhyb,

When deleting a Google account, they warn you about your username won’t be reclaimable. So I assume this will be the same.

muhyb,

Don’t know which screenshot program you use but it probably has a timer option. You can capture open menus after setting a timer.

muhyb,

Everyone thinks the otherwise but personally I like the name Tutanota and quite proud of being part of it. No one can create a @tutanota account anymore and that makes you a senior user if you have one.

muhyb,

Apparently they already reverted that. I guess people need to write every bullshit Microsoft pulls, at least for the sake of people who still use Windows.

muhyb,

If what you really seek is the max performance, then the answer is easy: Gentoo.

muhyb,

Surprisingly it’s fine on Tor.

muhyb,

I don’t know if there is a unified tool for that but I use btop and nvtop side by side. I don’t really care but if there is one, I’d like to know as well.

muhyb,

For some weird reason, someone really loves to unlock areas by climbing to a tower.

muhyb,

Yo dawg

muhyb,

So, can we finally switch to Wayland?

muhyb,

Thanks for the reply. I guess there is still some time for me. :)
