I like to brick devices, blunder my queen and overthink things.

It is going to be hard getting used to run0 if it ever goes ahead.

Many other Arch based too, even if it against Arch's philosophy. Just click "yes" and "next" a bunch of times and you are ready.

I get the idea automation, its great when it saves time and effort but when it represents a minuscule chance of chopping a limb off you it should never be implemented to the public.

Hmmm, like death? as in cease to exist? Very interesting anyways.

@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

hmm, that does not feel like it is a bug, I am not runnig Gnome but a Window Manager and there is a configuration were you can enable/disable that exact behaviour and it is called mouse warping.
You should check your setting for something like that or in Forums online.

I agree, the experience of switching to Linux as a regular end-user is overwhelming. The worst are the sensationalist articles that seem they were plagiarized and make you feel like you are missing on some epic feature if you pick one distro over the other.

Meta+shift+q to close all windows in focused workspace Clan. :)

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

I agree its safer, but is so unconvinient and slower when you are opening and closing back and forth. Because of it I have left most of the left side of the keyboard keybindless. I guess you have to compromise. Actually come to think of it, most settings in a PC workflow are compromised.

@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

When I was using Gmome I also used that for some time but I can't remember why I made the change to "meta+q" for some reason it was inconvenient.

Mod 1-4 (or 5 not sure...) Are the modifier keys, like Alt, Ctrl, etc... In this case Mod is the Super Key or Meta Key.

Its not buggy, every app its responsible of placing window parameter to comunicate with the window manager, the problem is developers make apps for regular DE with floating WMs. And yes as you said a little reaserch and some config can fix it.

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

What? Are you telling me that you use one window per workspace?

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

ah well, I just close all windows at once very rarely anyway but its useful.

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

ah yes, a $1500 phone with software that won't allow you to do shit under the flag of security and UI.

If you are only concerned about blocking ads thats fine and good. But if your are concerned about privacy one should ditch apple devices altogether. Not to mention freedom.

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

How is it worse? If you use google apps it is obiously the same as using apple apps. But otherwise you can remove telemetry, use foss apps and if you are up to it patch a safey net fix to use banking apps.

A closed source OS of a company that has broken every anti-trust law, thats sells phones with no headphone jack or charger and calls it features and you tell me it does not sell data. Google and Apple are two of the same Monster. But you can not modify you Iphone whatsoever, Jailbreaking an Iphone is a pain in the ass, while in Android isnt a breeze either it is much easier. Android in it self (Android Open Source Project) kicks any iOS in the ass. The problem is that vendors put a thick layer of their version of android. If you get your hands on a phone that is compatible with Lineage Os (very close to (AOSP) you can escape Googles jail for good. And while agree with tou that Google's Android is bad it ia certainly not any worse than iOS. Do not take my word for it, just ask any developer.

I read the study, it only compares just one iPhone to one Google Pixel phone and it concludes that Google just sends more accumulated data, not more data type. The reason for that is because DroidGuard send a full device integrity report to google to check things like the bootloader, mounts, if its rooted, if its an emulator, etc... Plus its checking for API hooking like Frida as the study testers where using. Droidguard is a huge obfuscated blob of data so sending loads of obfuscated data keys makes sense. The study concludes that while google calls for more data, the type of data regarding privacy is the same for iOS and Google Android.

You say that you want your phone for productivity like modifying your phone would be unproductive. Which is funny since your are on Lemmy commenting on a post about "Mildy Infuriating Stuff". If you do not care for for modification is one thing, but if one wishes to do so one should be able to do it. I'm totally fine with using tools as is, but if one would like to modify it then Apple, Google or whomever should not prevent it, if it voids the warranty or some other contract then so be it. It is your tool not theirs.

I agree with you that Google are a piece of shit, just that I think the same of Apple. I think that buying a phone for $1500 when there are other options for $400 is insane. From what I have read most developers and regular people who want privacy and freedom try to de-Google their phone, or run a custom ROM, and on their PC they run Debian, Arch or whatever. If that i not an option for you that is fine, but is not for nothing that people are running away from Apple and Google while they are getting their asses sued, it is not for nothing that government institutions around the world are replacing Windows with GNU/Linux.

After Plasma 6 released I prefer KDE over Gnome every day, I found that Plasma 5 was too messy, inconsistent and unintuitive even if Gnome was lacking in functionality. Even then I decided to move to i3 "just because" and now I'm transitioning to Sway. So far I think Sway is my favorite.

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

As far as my experience goes, Gnome workspaces and workflow is still more intuitive and simple. But Plasma 6 workflows has integrated modes where it can work the same if not very similar to Gnome. So in that regard Plasma has been taking notes and bringing all the good things from Gnome.

Roku has patented a way to show ads over anything you plug into your TV (arstechnica.com)

A patent application from the company spotted by Lowpass describes a system for displaying ads over any device connected over HDMI, a list that could include cable boxes, game consoles, DVD or Blu-ray players, PCs, or even other video streaming devices. Roku filed for the patent in August 2023 and it was published in November...

This is like Windows putting ads in the fucking startmenu....

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

just that?

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

I had the same, windows takes ages to boot or load any program, start panel with ADS and clunky UI.

I agree, using WM is like a using a car, its obviously easier to use something ready out-of-the-box but it does not feel as good as customizing your own. Just like people treat cars as their identity you can do the same in your computer and the fact that in some cases you can achieve better performance in your workflow.
To me it is like any investment, if it shaves some little time every day, eventually it will pay off.

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

Do a WM version!!!!!!

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

True, I tried to customize a sddm theme and you need fonts installed likewise.

Apple goint out of its way to harvest data behind people's back? Impossible

nfsu2 ,
@nfsu2@feddit.cl avatar

Yeah and? I read the article... Thats the point, if you have software that protects (or should) you from data harvest Apple should have safety methods in place.
But they do not care since they do the same... Maybe next time don't be a fucking prick to someone just because.
