You said

you would probably end up degrading your own experience; getting irrelevant ads

Irrevant ads = less targeted ads. You seem to think this is a negative. I’m saying it is actually a positive.

Getting more targeted ads is not really in your interest. That is an idea promoted by the ad people.

All of history is one people taking over another peoples land. I’m not saying its right, but in virtually any part of the world there is a history of some invader or colonizer coming in and displacing or swallowing up the existing people, probably multiple times, down through prehistory as well.

The basic screen design is pathetic. When I do a search I want to see search results. The whole right half of the screen is taken by related searches (your example differs from mine where it puts that Wikipedia summary in the upper right). Then half of the left side is taken up by a “people also ask” block. That leaves a quarter of the screen for search results, which with their inefficient spacing, fits 2 whole results before needing to scroll! If I scroll down I get 7 more before needing to use paging.

When they first rolled it out, they asked for feedback. Good luck trying to find where to submit that.

I’ve never considered it a swear word. It’s more of a euphomism for “shit”. My criteria for “swear” word is whether it is something a kid can say in school with getting yelled at. I realize this may have changed since I was a kid.

I’m using 7 pro right now and there is absolutely nothing making me think about upgrading. So I support the idea that you’re fine with a 9.

In support is that, I’d point to

As you keep navigating through the hamburger menu, one thing you will notice is that, unlike on the default GNOME terminal, there is no graphical Settings menu to speak of here. The reason for that is that Ghostty is so customizable that it would have been pretty much impossible to provide a practical GUI to expose all its configuration options: you need the full expressivity of a configuration file for that.

as making a virtue out of a lack. I really don’t buy that “impossible” line. It was just too much work or work they during want to do.

A few months ago, eh? I know nothing about and have no opinion on Plebbit. But shit takes time, especially open source volunteer efforts.

Thanks! I’m using konsole too, so that’s good to know. Do you remap something else to produce the ctrl-c character?

Session restore

What terminal app do you use, and what do you use to do the remapping?

“You can take this dream sequence and shove it up your ass!”

F-Droid is not a shop

Not sure why this is a response to my query.

Sorry, my wording was unclear. Their vpn verbiage suggests to me they are promoting access to the existing content of the web. Secure and anonymous they claim in other website verbiage.

When they say "All the content in the world’’ and compare it to a VPN, I take that to be promising secure anonymous access to all the existing content of the web not just some new social network’s own content.

People think are a lot more rational than they really are. We are wired to very easily start responding something as if it were a living being, develop a relationship with it, start caring about it. We do this with fictional characters, dolls, stuffed animals, etc. , nevermind something designed to mimic one convincingly in real time.

No, really? Reading a document like means you have to believe one of two things: either there is a massive collusion and conspiracy between a ton of different groups against this individual, with a lot of bad actors, or this is a very troubled individual giving a very distorted and paranoid portrayal of what is going on, someone whose behaviors constantly create conflict.

I know nothing about this individual, this app, or any of the history here, but that is the choice I get from reading this, and one of those two options should seem pretty obviously a lot more probable.

Please don’t use url shorteners, this hides any information the url gives you about where it is taking you. Also most things on the internet support the concept of a link where the url is hidden behind friendly text but still inspectable without clicking by mousing over it.

I always do a df -h before updating. And this recent update was brutally large. I was unable to free enough space by deleting snapshots as I’ve taken to doing lately. What I’ve now started doing is finding directories using a lot of space and moving them from my root partition to another partition I have with more space and then linking that directory back to a directory with the original path. The most recent culprit I found and moved is /var/lib/flatpack. The program filelight is a great tool for finding culprits.

I love this so much. When I first switched to Linux, being able to just list a bunch of server aliases along with the private key references in my .ssh/config made my life SO much easier then the redundantly maintained and hard to manage putty and winscp configurations in Windows.
