tfw someone just steals feelings out of your brain and puts them to words
  • I don't know if it's harder to force ourselves to do the "boring stuff" more than neurotypicals, but I know the main reason I do the things I do is "because someone has to do it." Kind of a sucky reason to do anything, but it at least helps me get through some of the everyday tasks, even if not completely. Everyone has to find their own way to cope, doesn't matter if we have ADHD or something "wrong" with us or not. One thing to keep in mind is an imperfect something is better than a perfect nothing

    KDE Goes and Does It (Double-Click By Default, That Is) - OMG! Linux
  • There's a symbol at the top left of the file or directory icon to select the item rather than open. It's stays there even if you have double click to open

    Superfluous face organs and luxury bones
  • And ears. Not covered (in the USA, at least) because "just about everyone suffers hearing loss at some point in their life" (aka not a profit maker) so might as well not cover it at all for anyone, including those with profound loss from birth...

    As an adult, what seemingly childish things do you get excited about?
  • Thank you for this! I've found myself getting more interested in birds just this past year, and that app looks great. I got a set of binoculars for stargazing but been finding myself using them more to look at birds lol

    I am THIS close to joining the Chromium monopoly gang
  • I just got Tumbleweed set up on my laptop after trying Fedora for a bit. Funnily enough, the thing that made me check it out is CentOS 7 coming up on end of life and needing to find a new distro to switch to for servers. Obviously, would use Leap on the server side, but the rolling release cadence of Tumbleweed was very appealing (have used Arch in the past, but had trouble keeping up with it...). Still feel like I am only using a fraction of what I can with it, though

    Without fail..
  • You can set Windows to use UTC for the hardware clock (or have Linux use local time shudder). Just need to set a registry key:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
    "RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001

    Long term OpenSuSE users, how has your experience been?
  • I'm interested in hearing about this from others, too. I'm in the middle of finding the next distro for my work now that centos 7 is reaching EoL. OpenSuSE is looking appealing (maybe because it's completely new to me), using leap of course, but I've setup tumbleweed in WSL and am planning to set it up to dual boot and use it as my primary OS. Based on what I know, it wouldn't be "better" than Arch, just a different way of managing updates. Tumbleweed is all automated for packaging and preparing updates, so the same issues that happen with AUR could also creep in to tumbleweed (I assume). One of the prices to pay for bleeding edge rolling releases

    Court rejects Ala. congressional map for failing to add 2nd district for Black voters
  • Exactly. The best outcome would probably be they refuse to hear it and the ruling stands as-is. Not sure the odds of that, though, but they did uphold the earlier ruling by the district court on this case... (don't think that gives much hope for the future, unfortunately)

    Court rejects Ala. congressional map for failing to add 2nd district for Black voters
  • Fortunately, that's not the case:

    Court-appointed experts will now draw a new map for the 2024 elections.

    Of course, it depends on if an appeal changes that...

    Stop using Brave Browser
  • No, I'm not. Chromium doesn't exist in Windows unless you install a program that includes it. Chromium web engine is "native" to the chromium web browser, not to any OS (except maybe ChromeOS). As espi mentioned, Internet explorer's mshtml is the only engine "native" to Windows. Just look at the Opera browser, they changed web engines from Presto to chromium; that's not using "what's native to the platform" (Opera works across all OS's with chromium, except for iOS for the restriction I mentioned before), it's using what the developers/company want to use to render their pages. Nothing in Windows itself provides any of the chromium engine "pieces"

    Stop using Brave Browser
  • Chromium isn't native to Windows. iOS is the only OS (I'm aware of) where browsers are forced to use a specific engine, but even that will be changing
