Ultramarine Linux 40 Released!

Jump

  • What a weird name for such a distro though... I thought this was meant for usage on boats or something.

    • Jolla's Sailfish OS is moving to a subscription model, new phone (and a privacy-focused AI device) coming soon - Liliputing

    Jump

  • Kotlin isn't the problem, missing the various Android API's is.

    • McDonald's is getting rid of self-serve drinks and some locations may charge for refills

    Jump

  • In fact, I'm pretty sure free refills is only an American thing. And that kind of culture is the biggest cause of obesitas. McDonalds definitely isn't healthy in Europe either, but at least we don't have it as bad as it could be 😅

    • Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • No they didn't. It literally got an update this week (3.22). Laying off part of the team (which is worrying) is not the same as actually killing it.

    • ‘Everything’s just 
 on hold’: the Netherlands’ next-level housing crisis

    Jump

  • We definitely have a housing crisis, but taking Amsterdam as an example is not representative for the entire country. That city is way more expensive than all other cities here and has jokes about it for ages, not just due to the current crisis.

    • Wanting to dual boot Windows with Kubuntu. Am I fine getting a Windows 10 key instead of 11?

    Jump

  • Sorry if this post isn’t fit for this community - I’ll delete it if it isn’t.

    You're asking a Linux community about what key you should buy for Windows, how is this at all relevant?

    • My wife was unimpressed by Vim

    Jump

  • export EDITOR=nano.

    But (neo)vim is amazing so there is no need to do that.

    • Rectangle for Linux?

    Jump

  • I'm just waiting for M3 support...

    • Linux users with uncommon or unusual setups: tell us about it

    Jump

  • Alpine Linux on my desktop and laptop, Alpine on a Raspberry Pi 3 working as a network/Bluetooth speaker for 5.1 surround speakers, postmarketOS on 2 RockPro64's which I'm currently replacing for a single x86 NAS running Alpine.

    • Are there any CPUs that work well with Linux that aren't made by Intel or another company on the BDS list/that supports Israel?

    Jump

  • I experienced that issue, AMD replaced it for free for me. Still rocking that R7 1700 to this day, still going to strong!

    • Why aren't more people using NixPKGs?

    Jump

  • NixOS sounds amazing in some regards, but I'm not really interested in learning a whole programming language for it... I have enough to do already.

    • Elon Musk Bought Twitter to Settle His Jet-Tracking Beef, New Book Claims

    Jump

  • Ugh, I feel the same. I know the top 1% of the world or whatever emits tons and tons more CO2 per year than the other 99%, but I didn't know it was this bad. That plane is flying multiple times per day. Sure Musk is probably not in it all the time, but that doesn't matter.

    Private jets should be banned all together, let's see how quickly they suddenly find out the internet exists.

    • What Major Social Media Platforms Would You Like To See Federated Alternatives To That Don't Exist Yet?

    Jump

  • That's why I said YouTube, not the other stuff.

    Then again, nothing is preventing you from uploading shirt videos to PeerTube as well.

    • What Major Social Media Platforms Would You Like To See Federated Alternatives To That Don't Exist Yet?

    Jump

  • YouTube already has that, it's called PeerTube.

    • PSA: Bluetooth vulnerability and PS3 Controllers on Linux in 2024

    Jump

  • This explains it! I thought it didn't connect any more due to my system being weird, but it's sad to see that isn't the case 😱

    I loved the plug and play on Linux. Guess I'll use it wired from now on, disappointing...

    • What if I paid for all my free software?

    Jump

  • Aurora isn't a reskinned F-Droid and neiter does it use the same repositories. It's a client for the Google Play Store, but one that doesn't require an account or Google Services. And that's not what F-Droid is.

    • America: Getting ready for another election. Rest of the world:

    Jump

  • Tbh a "normal" democracy doesn't only have 2 parties to choose from, none of which represents the majority of citizens. Your democracy sucks honestly.

    • Manjaro OS

    Jump

  • Then literally just use Arch. I don't understand why people want Arch but then install something different. If you don't want to go through the install process then it's honestly just not for you, but if you really want to try anyway give EndeavourOS a shot.

    • Manjaro OS

    Jump

  • The real question is, why are you considering Manjaro in the first place? What does it do that a different distro, without all the hate (which I personally think are 100% justified), doesn't do? Why "risk" it?

    • [Solved] Why doesn't the other directories have icons like Desktop? I'm using thunar.

    Jump

  • Not really. They are probably just missing the required entries in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs. For example mine:

     
        
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents"
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/"
XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/Music"
XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/Pictures"
XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/"
XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/"
XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos"

    The file is made by the tool xdg-user-dirs-update in my case, normally ran by a desktop environment but obviously won't be automatically ran in SwayWM.
