  • fuck you
    yes

    • apt will brick itself if it gets interrupted mid transaction with no clear recourse apart from a total reinstall, so try not to get greedy and Ctrl+C if it looks like dpkg is hung

    You can dpkg -r the package you tried to install then apt won't complain about missing dependency packages for your app as it won't be marked for to be installed

    trying to install any software that isn't already packaged explicitly for Ubuntu is a nightmare because there is no equivalent of the AUR for people to push build steps to and you're quite often left guessing what dependencies you need to install to get something to compile

    There isn't a big global community repo per say like aur but anyone can host their own repos with PPAs, you just need to add them to your lists

    Most apt quirks are there with Debian too, not just an Ubuntu thing. The rest of the things you mentioned are fair.

  • Hasn't it been like that for decades now?

  • no no no don't spoil it please

  • How about the other way around?

    • (I) I made that mistake
    • (they) We made that mistake

    • (they) They made that success
  • Ah. For me it's not the search bar only but also if I select text and press Ctrl+C/press context menu Copy as well.
    Interestingly, if sites put something in the clipboard (eg. Mastodon toot Copy link button) it works anywhere else.

  • My bigger problem right now is a bug that prevents me from copying stuff from the url bar when middle-click pasting is enabled in the KDE settings…

    What. For me it's the opposite - I can't copy stuff to other apps from Firefox if that setting is not enabled

  • Not really. To have fresh dynamic content having to install a third party plugin is a bad take. Web development was stagnating due to IE's market dominance.

  • What about Google just releasing a stable and unbroken system for once?

  • FYI This article is from February 2022.

  • I see that no one has suggested Doublecmd

  • Or just move to building proper public transport like Europe did.

  • I not too long ago ran into a kernel issue that was posted on the day I've set up my first arch install. Thus, the #1 result when searching for the bug was the arch forums and the issue was resolved about two weeks later.

  • What distro would a 3 in 1 packet be?

  • He could've said "Why would I wait until 2027? I could invade it tomorrow if I had wanted"

  • Me, as one who only read the first line before scrolling to the comments, good thing that others pointed out about the topic itself

  • When you're nearing the terabytes range of RAM you should consider moving your workload to a server anyway.
