Fixed an issue where the Private Window icon was displayed in the taskbar on Windows when browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled was set to false.

Oh thoanks, now I'm happy.

Is there a "remindme" bot in lemmy?

I want to know the answer too.

Eh, I wish it wasn't docker only.

I want to apt install stuff or at least download and run a binary, but not docker.

Didn't want to make title too long, sorry. By load back I mean read from clipboard or from a file or have an input box to paste from clipboard a lost of URLs and open each in a tab.

On my phone (it's a MIUI device) firefox sometimes acts weird, I can see URL in a tab but page looks empty. I can copy the URL manually, close the tab, open a new one, but this can be annoying if I have many tabs and this also changes the tab order.

Also, no, I can't just close firefox and open it again, as I mostly use firefox in private mode.

I just want to copy all open URLs, restart firefox, and open all my tabs in private mode again in the same order by pasting URLs back.

Also, android aften kills my firefox when it's in the backgroind without any warning.

Last time I searched, I couldn't find any such addons, but it's possible that I used wrong keywords.

Is it trying to solve any problem that is not solved by rsync/rclone?

Don't get me wrong, I love new tools, just curious how is it different (better or worse) from rsync?

[-] vort3@lemmy.ml 21 points 2 months ago

Others have said already, but XMPP and RSS. Also, nobody mentioned NNTP yet.

I wish everything was accessible by NNTP and we had better NNTP clients. NNTP is like RSS but for forums (so, Lemmy, Reddit, or anything where you could reply to posts). Download for offline reading, read in your client, define your own formatting, sorting, filtering, your client, your rules.

If Lemmy was accessible via NNTP, I could just download all posts and comments I'm interested in and reply to them without any connection, and my replies would get synced with the server later when I connect to WiFi or something.

I'm probably just in a toxic mood, so I'm sorry for what I'm going to say, but…

WOW, Someone who plays a game and ALSO uses a BROWSER? Wow, breaking news, I guess. /s

Is there a link to this talk (or interview, or whatever this is) but in a video format, or at least a text without all those «SEE ALSO» self ads?

[-] vort3@lemmy.ml 40 points 2 months ago

I hope someone watches it and post a tl;dr here.

I'm interested too, but I don't understand why everything has to be a video (instead of something like a blog post) and don't have an hour for that.

How do symlinks work from the point of view of software?

Imagine I have a file in my downloads folder called movie.mp4, and I have a symlink to it in my home folder.

Whenever I open the symlink, does the software (player) understand «oh this file seems like a symlink, I should go and open the original file», or it's a filesystem level stuff and software (player) basically has no idea if a file I'm opening is a symlink or the original movie.mp4?

Can I use sync software (like Dropbox, Gdrive or whatever) to sync symlinks? Can I use sync software to sync actual files, but only have symlinks in my sync folder?

Is there a rule of thumb to predict how software behaves when dealing with symlinks?

I just don't grok symbolic links.

This probably was asked countless times already, but given the amount of possible combinations of all the hardware and software, this is probably not surprising.

So, I do have some experience with linux. I ssh into my ubuntu server a lot, I do many bash/terminal tricks, so can't really call myself a newbie in Linux. However, for gaming I would use Windows for as long as I remember myself. With the release of KDE Plasma 6 and Vulkan support getting better, I was thinking about giving it a go, but I'm stuck.

When launching a game that natively supports linux (Dota 2) from Steam, pretty much nothing happens. I see in terminal that there are some errors, but archwiki states that this is normal:

Wrong ELF class

If you see this message in Steam's console output

ERROR: ld.so: object '~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

you can safely ignore it. It is not really any error: Steam includes both 64- and 32-bit versions of some libraries and only one version will load successfully. This "error" is displayed even when Steam (and the in-game overlay) is working perfectly.

Other than that I see no errors or anything.

I'm running Arch linux with KDE Plasma 6.0.1, with default Wayland session. My laptop is an Acer Nitro 5 with NVIDIA GPU and I guess also Intel integrated video card. Here are the details:

I have no idea honestly about which driver I have installed, but I did install nvidia package. I'm not sure if it's being used. I also don't know anything about Mesa. Also, this is from my Info Center:

I don't even know what is Xwayland and why I have it installed, probably some dependency of KDE.

At this point I'm not even sure what I'm using (is it pure wayland, or x11, or some hybrid of using both), if I have correct GPU drivers (do I have correct drivers for just one of the two video cards, for both, or none at all), if my NVIDIA GPU is even working, if it's being used to run a game or not, and if I have all necessary packages to run Vulkan.

At this point, how do I troubleshoot all of this mess?

The workaround is to not use the software you don't like.

Use yt-dlp, it gets the job done without any ads, donations, cookie banners etc.

[-] vort3@lemmy.ml 39 points 4 months ago

I'm pretty sure it was a joke.

Everyone did this at some point, but nobody would admit such a silly thing happened to them.

Universal editor you are talking about is vim. Spend 15 minutes doing vimtutor and you'll be happy 15 years later.
