Edit: these suggestions are last resort type stuff tbf, hope the guys in the other thread are more help. Looks like someone suggested session restore w/ kde which makes alot of sense.

Ok that's increadibly weird. Here's some places I'd look.

I'd start looking in environment files such as _{/.bash_profile, .}/.profile, /etc/environment, /etc/profile and a few others. Maybe there's a call to the application in one of these files?

Secondly, I'd attempt to write a bash script to walk a directory tree, cat out files, pipe it through grep and get every instance where VirtualBox is mentioned in a file. Trying the name of proccess, or of the executable too.

I have a snippet that may help, by replacing that bash script:
grep -Rinw '~/path/to/start/' -e 'VirtualBoxOrSmthngElse'

Head there to see how to try and wittle down the matches. I'd start in a etc, ignore binary files with grep, and try everywere systematically

This is likely overkill lol. If you're on xorg maybe there's something in the file xorg uses for init? Can't remember the name personally but I used it to start up some processes before on system boot quite a while ago

Oh shit I see. I think the joke is that you only get some of the security updates if you pay for ubuntu pro. Ransom as in "Be a shame if you were insecure there little buddy, we can help with that. For a price"

Yeah I don't know enough about that personally to make a judgment

You do make some good points on it being terminalside, you've partially changed my mind there. I see the value now.

Also, you would be correct anything that allowed collapsing commands would be trivial to implement some sort of action per command and it's output. Along with collapsing being easiest to do terminalside.

What I would love to see is a terminal that builds it's own shell from scratch too rejecting the ancient ideas we have with bash. I still love bash but I'm curious what could come of it.

As for their luddite status their reply to my previous comment seems to show them to be a bit more open

Seriously though thanks for the good conversation and thought excersize

Konsole can display images, as can kitty, alacritty, western, iterm2, etc. There's quite a few formats to do so dating back decades. This isn't new.

As for collapsing a command and it's output that's nice, but it's not exactly game changing.

Lastly, searching explicitly your last command for a term with context would be much better suited to the shell to solve as it'd be terminal independent. Wouldn't surprise me if under the hood it's a bash script that takes whatever input you pass to bash, execs it, pipes stdout to tee, which passes it to a text file storing output and the console's output too. Of course, you can always pipe it to fzf for a live grep with context if you have it set up right and remember to do so

I would agree just denying any advancements in favor of the "good ole way" is idiotic but nothing I've seen or that you've listed convinces me these are major advancements. Nor are these anything that couldn't be solved at the shells level or with supplementary applications. Nice to have, if it weren't electron or closed I would switch, but nothing groundbreaking

I doubt they're outright rejecting any idea of progress. They're likely just not convinced by what the fancy options offer

Hell yeah, now that it finally works with Wayland on nvidia with explicit sync being added to the 555 drivers it's been great for me

what

And vim, of course

No clue why the downvotes, you're correct. The man was a well known philanthropist who strongly believed in taxation even as a rich man. He took this deal partially, as he stated, in order to pay income taxes on the profit supporting his country better. He's a well respected man in his country known for advocating for disabled peoples rights and funding for better support.

Oh shit, I just made the switch and I'm liking it. I just "favourite" things from my sub feed in one small window, and watch in the other, and it autoplays (if I want) so I can just start doing shit while the background vids keep playing. Honestly kinda more convienient than youtubes gui. It has sponsorblock built in too, which is nice

I like this fella. Imma ignore the text on screen and ask you guys "who are they? Source please?" So I can get a convienient link and not have to type something in.

Either that or I get tonhear that nice love song again. That man never be giving them up

Yes. That is his point.

All hail the cuck license, ensuring we end up back at the same place every single time.

Good intentions and all that

Russian is a music, a food, a sense of style, a story. Russian is culture not the current tyrany.

Why let the fascists steal that from the people? I understand your sentiment but I'll be honest it enrages me.

It's like a person saying that any black that doesn't join a gang isn't really black. They can't see a non-violent black as a member of that race. You ignore the problem in favor of factionalism. Black people are not inherently violent, it's an economic and political situation. Apply the same logic to Russians. See the obvious reasons for the current situations. It's not the people, it's their tyrant. A tyrant they cannot choose.

Black does not mean the worst of their people, Russian does not mean the worst of theirs. It's a signifier of culture, and ethnic origin. That is all

Politicalhumor might be the better spot for this

Yeah, makes sense chief, but a bigger batteries main purpose would be to be a bigger battery while also being level.

Seems like your flimsy plastic cober is kinda shit

Your cover increases battery life?
