Xscreensaver has apparently been checking for updates and is disappointed that it hasn't had one for 14 months because Debian is too stable. Can anyone recommend a linux screensaver which would work with xfce and can be trusted to never do that?
📲 Welche kleinen Smartphones (~5") gibt es (nach 2016), die von einem #CustomROM unterstützt werden?
Leider wurden in den letzten Jahren kaum noch kleine, handliche Geräte hergestellt. Wenn ich nach "kleinen" Geräten recherchiere, ist die Definition meist sehr großzügig i.S.v. "kleiner als 6 Zoll" bzw. "kleiner als 15x7cm", was ich schon relativ große finde. Für mich persönlich wäre die perfekte Größe sowas wie das S4 Mini (das ist 12x6cm groß), da ich sowieso keine Ambitionen habe, auf dem Teil Romane zu schreiben oder Filme zu schauen (dafür gibt es zum Glück geeignetere Geräte).
Mir sind diese als relativ kleine Geräte bekannt, die von einem oder mehreren CustomROMs unterstützt werden und noch eine erträgliche Größe haben : Samsung bis S10, Pixel2-3, Sony Z3+Z5 Compact Kennt Ihr darüber hinaus noch andere?...je kleiner, desto besser!
Interessante Definition, von daher schon. ROM ist aber eigentlich nur ein kleiner Teil der Firmware, aber klar, für den Benutzer ist das System read-only
Any virtual keyboard / on-screen keyboard recommendations for Gnome (Wayland) users? The default one doesn't support X11/XWayland apps, which unfortunately is most of them...
The Pixel 9 will have rounded corners with a flat display and a centered punch-hole selfie camera. The power button and volume keys are placed on the right side of a flat frame. The smartphone will feature a 6.03-inch display, slightly smaller than the Pixel 9 Pro’s 6.1-inch display.
In terms of dimensions, the Pixel 9 measures around 152.8 x 71.9 x 8.5mm, and 12mm with the rear camera bump, OnLeaks tells us.
So imitating Apple, a bunch of useless stuff like “adaptive touch depending on environment” and wireless charging.
It is a huge security improvement. Using a DAC means I need to have USB always enabled (GrapheneOS has a toggle to disable all data which I would otherwise use) and Bluetooth is
used for tracking peoples movements
forcing expensive planned obsolescence heaphones with tiny li-ion batteries and proprietary chargers
also a security threat, as you have an open connection without any reason
The rest is even more outdated than Debian, so just use Debian.
In general stable Desktops are not enjoyable. You will basically not want to read Linux News anymore as you wont be getting any of that.
Its good for enterprises, where policies dont need to change etc. Also in combination with Flatpak and EPEL it may work somehow, but its just worse than using some normal Distro I heard.
Snaps are only somewhat secure on Ubuntu, at least to my state of knowledge. Only on Ubuntu do they have the Apparmor profiles to isolate apps.
I think Fedora Atomic is just better for most cases. KDE got their stuff together mostly (I will not want to use a stable version until 6.3 or something) and the rest of Fedora never breaks for me.
One of the KDE Plasma features I use almost in daily basis is the MouseMark.
Go to your settings, in Desktop Effects, Enable the MouseMark (you can change the settings of it in the button in front of it). Then press Meta+Shift and move your mouse to doodle, or press and release Meta+Shift+Ctrl to define beginning and end of an arrow (it will draw the rest.
Interestingly enough, it have been in Plasma for the past 16 years:
