I started on it instead of Obsidian

This is the way. I started on Obsidian, and Logseq is painful in comparison. It’s a good product, but I got accustomed to too many nice conveniences over the past couple of years.

That is irrelevant. We are more concerned with relative market share than raw numbers. For example, many devs will not develop towards a browser or OS that has less than 5% market share. If/when Linux market share hits 5% and even 10%, we expect marked increases in developer interest to support our OS of choice. As far as I’m aware, nobody really sets such metrics based on raw user counts, so that is a less important number for us. Your Statistics 101 course should have taught you to make sure the statistics you are measuring are relevant.

Where is data recovery $100? In my country, data recovery is like $1000 USD to look at your drive, and then they tell you how much they can recover and a full quote.

Ooh, that’s a fair claim! I don’t use Sidebery like that, so I have never run into that issue!

I’ve never trusted browsers to reliably remember history and restart where I left off, so I make heavy use of Sidebery’s snapshot feature.

If we’re talking about a great implementation of the feature, it would be ‘Sidebery’.

God’s, that’s beautiful!

You trade a little system stability for bleeding-edge package access.

They’re rad, and you don’t notice the crease when the screen is displaying anything. I’ve had the zFold4 and now the 5 and I love it.

Ooh, I moved to hyprland a few months ago and fell in love, but sway will give me static layouts? My singular gripe with hyprland is I want to keep my RDP app fixed to a size and never resized for anything, because when that window resizes inadvertently, I have to MFA half a dozen connections. I mostly like the dynamic tiling, but I’d like to fix one window on one workspace and never have it resize.

This is Hiroi Kikuri, a character from the manga Bocchi The Rock. It’s a story about rock bands. It’s extremely common for rock stars with mental health struggles to develop crippling drug addictions that end up killing them, and receive no help from the people around them who brush off their struggles because of their musical talent, and Hiroi illustrates that. Drinking and smoking are bad, sure, but it’s a realistic portrayal of a common real-life theme.

I think that’s a cool idea, but I don’t like it for unixporn. I always feel the *porn communities are just what you’re seeing – people sharing their pretty thing. Maybe they give details, maybe not. Maybe they interact and chat with the community, maybe not.

I also looked at Excalidraw, which while being web app, runs reasonably well on Android. But some of the functions either don’t work at all or I’m doing something wrong. I was able to import a photo and trace it, but couldn’t find a way to export just the trace outline.

After you trace the photo, can’t you delete the photo from the canvas and just save as SVG? Won’t it save just the trace if that’s all there is?

Is the open driver more stable in Wayland now? 535, I couldn’t use Wayland at all. 545, the open driver was still giving me all kinds of problems, but proprietary driver was flawless. Just upgraded and nothing broke, so I guess I’ll try flipping back to open again and giving it a try, but the point of the proprietary driver has been stability, at least for some of us.

I love Linux, but you got some weird shit going on with your PC. I’ve got 3 4K monitors hooked up to a moderate-spec PC (Ryzen 9 3900X, 64GB RAM, RTX 3060 12GB) and I never saw white flashes when adjusting windows. Also it only rebooted when I told it to and never made much noise (quiet fans and all solid-state storage). Can’t say I ever used the super-D thing intentionally (I launched programs from the start menu, never used desktop shortcuts).

I run Linux now because it’s sick as tits and it’s the principle of the thing, but windows has been pretty fuckin’ rock-solid since 10. Shit, I had more graphical instability with Linux a few months ago, but that’s just because I insist on using Wayland, and Nvidia drivers had a rough year last year.

It may have the kernel but it isn’t much GNU in it

Wait, does this mean Alpine Linux is not Linux?

I hope many projects will convert from Appimage to Flatpak

They seem like different projects with different goals. Appimages are portable executables.

Flatpak, to me, is something you install on a system and run with a flatpak runtime that is installed on your PC. I think its a fantastic way to sandbox programs with differing dependencies, but you still install programs and run them on your PC.

Appimage, on the other hand, is a wholly-contained executable. It is less efficient than flatpak in every way if you are installing apps on a system, but it is more portable. I can throw a handful of appimages on a USB stick and carry them from machine to machine (or mount an ISO in the case of VMs). I can plug in my “troubleshooting and development” stick to an otherwise barebones server at my datacenter, fix an issue with a comfortable set of useful apps, then unplug and leave the machine untouched.

Appimage is not a replacement for flatpak, but it has its own purpose. Snap is more similar to flatpak, but inferior in every single way. If we must get rid of one, can we phase that one out?

targeted at regular desktop users

While Slackware and Debian are the oldest still-maintained Linux distros, I don’t think either had a desktop-first approach.

My phone doesn’t have a 3.5mm headphone jack.

CPU/BIOS-level system management engines such as Intel IME/vPro or AMD Secure Technology give device access to IT even if the OS is replaced or the system is powered off.

If your IT staff isn’t utilizing that technology, then when you boot into a corporate-managed OS, they can see any hardware that is currently connected to the system.

If they’re not doing any monitoring at all, you’re fine (but the viability of the business is in question). If they’re doing OS-level monitoring, stick with the USB thing and leave it unplugged when booted into the corporate OS. If they’re doing CPU-level monitoring, you’re already likely flagged.

If you’re unsure how much monitoring they’re doing, attempting to find out may also be a resume-generating event (RGE). Cheers, and good luck!

I need to make it a priority to give logseq a try. I moved from Joplin to obsidian.md a couple years ago, because i realized an open data format (plaintext markdown files) was more important to me than an open source app (because I can still easily query and manipulate my data with open source CLI tools). I think at this point if I can replicate about 75% of my obsidian workflow in logseq, I’ll make the jump and adapt my workflows to logseq’s strengths and capabiities.
