I self-identify as an nblob, a non-binary little object.
The DE world is originally a universe written by Robert Kurvitz since he was a teenager and for his collective ZA/UM, using/deriving from DnD mechanics. So in the game where they mention the studio of role playing game devs, it’s a nod to their childhood.
Well guess I’ll add one more to my three a day.
Of course whatever works for you works too, we found workarounds for what we need.
Yes it’s more convenient because it’s a keybinding away. Also, on Wayland I have to use kernel modeset and it is impossible to “overclock/undervoltage” the GPU to save energy. I also get more frames on X. It’s not that KDE on Wayland is bad…it’s exactly switching to X just to do that to play games is inconvenient.
It was annoying at first for me too but they tell you how to bypass it, so can’t you just use the flag --break-system-packages and make it an alias for pip?
I’m curious what you mean by “no animations while playing games”?
I like Wayland and use it on my laptop. But I also have Nvidia on my PC and while it’s janky at places, I don’t get all the problems you describe (at least on i3 for me)
I use multiple monitors with different refresh rates and don’t really have any major issue. It syncs with the highest one. I indeed don’t use a compositor because it’s distracting and also turn off all the composition pipe line stuff. The result of turning off the latter is less latency and a teeny tiny bit of tearing in the lower 3rd when scrolling web pages but that’s it.
Games can run utilize gsync when in-game vsync is enabled so long as you disable the second monitor with xrandr.
Calibre is awesome. Going the other way, from pdf to epub is not so easy though, requires a bit of manual work.
Adguard Home on the homelab, with my router set to use it as DNS, alongside Tailscale with Headscale on top to reroute all traffic through the home network so that ad blocking works all the time, on all devices that can use Tailscale, and also away from home.
Backtrack/mentioned lists show you a list of pages that mention the page you’re on, so you can see how it’s related to other pages.
It’s hard to find one solution that fits all my use cases, I have to admit.
And by actual hosted wiki, I mean Dokuwiki, Wiki.js, Bookstack, Gollum, Mkdocs, etc. that renders the syntax into HTML.I like that they make my “notes” appear more immutable and allow me to access them through any browser. This applies to content like glossaries, food/drinks recipes, homelab documentation. Things you put in once and forget.
Is there a real use to a graph-like visualization like this? Or is it just for pure fun? I find backtrack lists or mentioned lists a lot more useful. When I used to use Logseq, the graph view would be quite slow when I had a hundred or so files. Nowadays, I just use orgmode for more temporary, short stuff and an actual hosted wiki for more permanent, long-written stuff.
What about simple calendar with the agenda widget?
uBlock origin and CanvasBlocker/JShelter are probably enough. There’s also uMatrix, which gives you more granular control over what to block or allow.
Hmmm, that isn’t open source, I don’t know if one can trust it. Why does a browser need in-app purchases? Try Mull or Cromite.
Edit: from the description, it uses Brave Search (to answer you question), so it doesn’t send to Google your queries. But I’d be careful with an app with a bunch of SEO keywords in its description.
koreader is good if your platform supports it.
I use a second-hand kindle on airplane mode and just transfer books to it from calibre. E-ink is better for my eyes.
Sigh…Seems like every time Proton gets criticized, their fanboys always ensure to let you know that you’re somehow wrong. I don’t know how they managed to get recommended by so many people considering they provide unaffordable services for everyone not on a high income. I would try to migrate if I were you, they’re pumping new features constantly despite their users wanting bugfixes and improvements to existing ones to gain more and more ecosystem users. It’s a dark pattern. Look at Google and Apple.
“Oh, what about the free-tier?” It’s a joke having to use their own clients when powerful open-source ones exist. “Oh, but it’s because of the encryption that’s protecting you!” I know how to use PGP, thanks. Plus, it only works if you’re sending to other Proton accounts, and guess what? I don’t even have control over my own key pair! (Edit: and when migrating away, I can’t even bulk export my emails!)
Even the comments made by me and Dsklnsadog got vibe-based downvoted because they can’t even bother to come up with a response on why our opinions were wrong. I’m glad I stopped using their services before I sent them any money.
Phenomenal work. Better than 99% of the posts on here.
Also why would someone who want enhanced privacy put all their eggs in the basket by trapping themself in Proton’s ecosystem. Compartmentalize is important, and it ends up being cheaper too. Proton’s pricing is cutthroat.
