  • if firefox is the default browser, I guess just start "" "https://your.url.here.foo", as per https://superuser.com/a/36730

    otherwise, I guess you could just cd to firefox's directory and do the same firefox.exe urlhere

    as for specific window... yea that might be tad hard. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/CommandLineOptions doesn't seem to have any way to indicate any specific instance/window from cli.

    could be firefox handles those internally, kinda seems like urls open up in the window which was last active. So.. I guess you could start the script by starting firefox with --new-instance or --new-window, and patiently wait until urls are open? I guess.

  • Assuming you know what you're doing, maybe some script? At least on linux something like this seems to work:

     bash
        
    #!/bin/bash
    
    urls_file="${HOME}/path/to/url_list.txt";
    sleep_time=1;
    
    while read -r line;
    do
        firefox "${line}";
        sleep ${sleep_time};
    done < "${urls_file}";
    
      

    edit: heh, tried to delete this as irrelevant, as I entirely missed the clipboard & requirement for a button IN firefox.. but it didn't really delete it seems. Oh well, leaving this in for laughs.

    Anyhoo, if you need to speed up/throttle the link opening somehow, maybe add some incremental counter there and skip sleeping if counter < 10 or whatever.

  • srsly? so it's just all "grab whatever dev" and not at all associated with the bus?

  • Different bus, different naming.

    Now, memory kinda hazy, but weren't ide devices /dev/hdX?

  • no, you must copulate with the shoes, do it. DO IT NOW.

    Otherwise there... is definitely a tomorrow. But.. you know, you do you.

  • because this is the internet, I'm not exactly sure what you mean with that... and frankly I'm scared to ask.

  • got to say, the update went smoothly and didn't need to touch any configs.

    Feels quite a bit smoother than the KDE 5 on this aging hardware (i5-2320, igpu, 16GB ram, sata ssd). <3

    I can now even "alt-tab" backwards with shift! That just didn't work previously!

  • I'm kinda amazed it wasn't DOOM again. Damn cool project!

  • I might have missed something VERY obvious - I did skim through check the mkinitcpio, grub and microcode wikipages - but just merging .pacnew to current config (mkinitcpio, grub defaults), mkinitcpio -p linux and grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg, newly created grub.conf still had intel-ucode on the initrd -line. This happened on both machines I have atm.

    Arch forums had the magic words here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2154769#p2154769

    Add this line to /etc/default/grub then regenerate grub.cfg:

    GRUB_EARLY_INITRD_LINUX_STOCK=''

    and then my grub.cfg generated fine without the intel-ucode, and after rebooting dmesg seems to indicate the new method works fine

    Always something :P

  • when the company as allocated at most 5 seconds per delivery and you've already spent 3, reading instructions is not going to happen. Gotta go fast

  • menu -> print -> "save as pdf"? seems to be there just like it's on desktop version

  • sploosh.

  • ctrl+(shift)+tab to next/prev tab? I don't think there's any direct shortcut to go to eg. tab 34.

  • Vim commandline goes :BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

  • absolutely, but they were in general (IIRC) suggesting them for the main downloads, but just not telling anyone outside the comments, which was the weird part

  • not only the ux, some devs make it absurdly confusing to find a binary.

    I don't want to throw anyone under the bus, but there's this one niche app.

    their github releases at one point were YEARS out of date, they only linked to the current version in seemingly random issue reports' comments. And the current versions were some daily build artefacts you could find in a navigation tree many clicks deep in some unrelated website. And you'd better be savvy enough to download a successfully built artefact too. And even then the downloaded .zip contained all kinds of fluff unnescessary for using the app.

    The app worked fine, sure, but actually obtaining it was fairly tricky, tbh.

  • basically nothing/same "command not found".

    "fewer" doesn't have execute rights, nor does the next command use the fewer in current directory. But, taking all that into account and "doing it right...ish":

     
        
    $ touch fewer
    $ chmod +x fewer
    $ ./fewer .bashrc
    #it outputs nothing, it's an empty script
    
      
  •  
        
    [malix@derp ~]$ fewer .bashrc 
    bash: fewer: command not found
    
      

    :(
