According to Brodie Robertson, there is a new krohnkite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fw8LS3qXPg

The theme I run is Arc-Darkest with Sardi-Flat-Arc icon theme.

Great. Now Linux Mint will have to start providing their own kernels too, as they were following Ubuntu's way of choosing a kernel version.

Will this be the final nail in the coffin that will make LMDE the main edition, or will they just follow what Canonical is doing in that case? I'm genuinely curious for their response.

This really reads to me as "I found a theme that I like and works for me" and to be honest, that's not an easy task, so well done!

I don't.... understand.... the downvotes. I do the same thing though I never really get to the Balena Etcher part. Also, Ventoy is the only way to get a Windows ISO up and running from Linux, as far as I know.

My power usage on idle was 8W but is now just under 4W on idle

Ain't nobody forking Chromium, and realistically speaking, everyone will just follow whatever standards Google pushes via the Blink engine. It's the truth, no matter the copium. Maybe Vivaldi and Brave will try to oppose any bad changes, but they will kneel eventually.

Oh yeah. For me, it's a Match-3 game that I stopped playing specifically because it didn't support Linux. Too bad it's also the best release from the franchise imo (The Treasures of Montezuma 4).

Because with the Chromium engine becoming the only engine, they can decide which features they want to support and which they don't, thus, combined with their ad business, they will have no opposition to Manifest v3 and can even do Manifest v3.1 or Manifest v4 which leaves adblockers completely powerless against Google Ads.

And can essentially deprecate all browser addons forever.

If they do and Firefox dies, they're getting ANOTHER Antitrust trial (hopefully).

Yeah, but what happens when you're too used to using Emacs with evil mode, vi mode in the shell, and (neo)vim for a long time? And now you have to start using helix and its own bindings. If there was a helix with full vim bindings (and plugins, for custom themes) support, I'd probably be using it right now.

Exactly. I hate when people constantly bring in Flatpak, because I'd be happily using Debian, if I could have Qtile Wayland with Qtile-extras and Hyprland in the repos with all their dependencies. But that's never happening, especially for Qtile. These are window managers, you can't package them in a Flatpak. And what about niche cli tools, as you mentioned? Or what about the latest Neovim on Debian? Yes, there's a Flatpak but do you really want to mess with a Flatpaked CLI app? I know I don't.

Replaces the Archwiki with basically 0 docs, a large chunk of your Linux knowledge no longer applies, you can't compile from source (even if you mostly don't need to), everything is different, the nix language kinda sucks until you "get" it, etc.

But it has a lot of advantages too if you have the time and desire to learn it.

The one benefit Arch has for me (even though I no longer use it as I found I'm not too fond of rolling releases), is that the AUR with an AUR helper takes care of getting any Linux packages installed. No need to copy commands off a github repo or something like that.

I came here to say Zathura (I've been actively using it for the last few days going through K&R C for university) but I see everyone else is saying it too. The "d" key will give you dual pane mode iirc. And what I also do is I use "s" to make the pdf match the window width rather than height and then use Capital H and L to read the top and bottom of the pages, and Capital J and K to go to the next 2 pages.

Similar story. The only way we could finally end it is if we paid 1 month at the high price (it was a promotional contract, 20-something quid for 100 mbps or so they claimed; it became 40+ after that).

How about VimBeGood? https://github.com/ThePrimeagen/vim-be-good

Just found this lol. They killed one and 2 sprung in its place.

Can you give us more info about this one? I can't seem to find it

Also, toilet paper?
