Seems the keyboard issue on my #GalagoPro has finally resolved itself (been using an external one). 🙂

Now all I need is an external battery for it, as the internal one is dead. @system76 can you give me any recommendations, please?

With the news that @GIMP is expected to finally launch its 3.0 release in May... I'm wondering if I should hold off on learning how to use the app, until they actually release it?! 🤔

@pop_os_official @system76 how can I download the alpha of Cosmic, to virtually test?

Would switching instances stop this spam nonsense?

@pop_os_official is there a way to force apps to only open on certain screens?

I have a few apps which always open on my laptop's screen, when they should appear on my external monitor, which is the default screen!

TIL about the browser named Floorp. It's based on Firefox.

@Vivaldi do you have a way of downloading the browser on Arch-based machines?

All I could see, as download options, were DEB and RPM packages, which don't work on Arch!

Linux on mobile has a long way to go. I will be making videos about my experience, so stay tuned for that.

kernellogger, 6 months ago (edited 6 months ago) to linux

#Linux 6.6 just became a #Longterm (aka #LTS) #kernel.

The #LinuxKernel's stable team (Sasha Levin and @gregkh) just made this official by adding it to https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html with the following change: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/kernel/website.git/commit/?id=d3c85f300d9214949efae275e519f30cce155cca

The Steam Deck website will tell you that the device runs Linux, if you click on the quote "hold on to your butts!"

#Steam #SteamDeck #Linux

The same part of the website after you click on the quote, where a new text has revealed itself: It’s a Linux system, you know this! The new version of SteamOS is optimized for handheld gaming, and it won't get in your way with other stuff. But if you want to get your hands dirty, head on out to the desktop.

I'm looking for a todo application, similar to Todoist or TickTick that has a Linux app and an iOS app, syncs between them and isn't horrible.

Don't talk to me about Obsidian or notion, not great for todos. Tried Any.do, but it too is not great and has no Linux app. I can live with a web app, but I don't want to.

Linux kernel 6.6 has landed with many improvements for laptops, AMD/Intel chips and more!

FDP, the liberal party in Germany plans now to use AI to create speeches, statements, and citizen inquiries.🤖

🗣️Does it also raise your concerns that a political party now wants to use AI-generated content?

Really not too happy with the new @thunderbird look, especially the email list pane.

I have new emails appearing at the bottom, each time I delete one the whole list moves, which hides the newest two messages. Not good. 😞

Think I might have to start looking into a web based #Email client for my domain emails, as I'm not too sure I like the feel of the new look #Thunderbird. 🤔

Does anyone know the best way to edit #PDF files in #Linux? I've been given a questionnaire to fill out, as a PDF document, and no way to edit it.

I've been trying to find a solution but nothing has worked, thus far.

@Vivaldi how can I add #Raindrop to the list of search engines? It doesn't use the standard search URL string that other sites use!

I'd like to be able to search through my bookmarks there, using the RD command.

@Vivaldi I used to have my page view set to 140%. Now that I've gone back to the default, it still shows pages at the old setting, even for completely new sites. Is there any way to resolve this?
