I like gnome. My only gripe is that workspaces should be per-screen. But all Linux DEs aside from a few isoteric tiling WMs get that wrong.

We have per weight pricing on a lot of items in The Netherlands. It’s great for comparing different items when you’re in the supermarket, but doesn’t really work against shrinkification. You simply don’t remember the price-per-kg from last week.

Yup, I remember that 😄

43 years old here. I can still hear it. I think I put about 10-15 chargers in the bin because of the noise. I also really hate those anti-mosquito ultrasone emittors people put in their yards. I can hear them whenever I walk around the neighborhood.

They’d have to get rid of that fascist bitch Meloni first.

I have a small collection of Lego sets. I mainly collect the minifigure-scale Star Wars space ships (yes, I have the crazy big Millenium Falcon), but only original trilogy ships. My wife collects the big Lego Creator cars.

That’s harder, but perhaps the new wifi 7 sensing can help in the near future.

Home Assistant can do that. Put a Shelly smart plug in the stove outlet to see if it’s using power (or do you have an old fasioned gas stove?). It can also track what time you turned off your lights last night.

I put a Shelly smart plug in my washing machine outlet. If it detects the machine using power for 30 seconds and then stop using power for 5 minutes, then it sends a signal to Home Assistant, and HA send a notification to my phone. It’s easy.

Home Assistant has a really good basic presence detection: wifi. If you phone is connected to your home wifi network, then you’re home. Else you’re away. Simple. Works. Local only. No extra sensors.

I have a Brother laser printer. I print a lot. It just works, it’s cheap and you can use off-brand toner. It’s great!

It’s not about clicks, it’s about attribution. That is also why they all want to track you. It’s not just about targeting ads. If you buy something in a webshop and the advertiser can show that you saw a (related) ad for that somewhere in the last X days/weeks then the sale is attributed to the advertiser and they get paid a fee. That is why they want to track anything and everything. The more data they collect, the higher the chance they can show attribution. No clicks required.

There’s also browser extensions like “old reddit redirect”. They ensure you’re always on the good version of reddit.

My guess is that you have Docker configured incorrectly. Its internal IP range probably overlaps with your real network, so all requests are routed to Docker. Uninstall docker and reboot the server. If that works, reinstall docker and properly configure its internal networking.

That’s just fashion you don’t like 😄

It’s called fashion. Give it a decade, something else will become fashion.

Distro maintainers are a lot better about keeping libraries up-to-date than random application developers. They will even patch applications to work on newer libraries, even when the app developers do not.

There’s also auditability. If e.g. OpenSSL (or some other library) gets a high rated CVE and Debian ships a same-day patch, I know I am safe. I can verify that I have installed the patched version, and I know my applications use that patched version. Not with flatpak. Now I’m at the mercy of a dozen app developers, many of which probably value security less than the Debian Security team.

IMHO it’s a mistake for Fedora to drop its own packages for flatpak. But Fedora appears just to be a RedHat experiments playground these days, not a user focussed distro.

Don’t get me wrong, Flatpak is fine if you want to install stuff from Joe Random Developer off the internet, but I trust the Debian maintainers a whole lot more. If they ship it, i can trust it.
