Some spontaneous thoughts Linux:
anger is at the control panel
Sorry, I don’t get it. Could you explain that for a non-native speaker?
So, as the other poster said, they are held together by tendons. But what is between the bones?
With my then teenage son it was video games and later strength training. Since he didn’t live with me, it helped tremendously in keeping the regular phone calls interesting. Nothing better than a common interest, where you can offer actual insights.
Well made video, but so very deep in the category “useless knowledge”
After all, it took nearly 50 years of advocacy from groups like Mothers Against Drunk Driving to stigmatize driving under the influence. And it took nearly that long for drivers to get on board with wearing their seatbelt
So, change will come when the respective generation of drivers dies.
Incidentally I installed this App from F-Droid a week ago, along with Ultrasonic and Tempo (both subsonic apps).
I haven’t decided yet which one is my favorite. Overall, I like the interface of Power Ampache 2. The home screen is a nice addition, which ultrasonic lacks.
My biggest gripe about all three ist that you cannot do multiselect or swiping of songs, to quickly enque a subset, e.g. of an album, or create a playlist in such a way.
Looks like you haven’t tried C++ yet? /s
The one in the image gallery app that comes preinstalled with the phone. On my current one it’s an app by Google, on the one before it was some app by Sony.
It’s a great player, but I prefer smplayer on the desktop and the default player on android. Somehow the interface is a bit clunky
I love it. But I configured away all the gui features (menus, graphical tab & scroll bars, etc)
Analogous to the Krita post, I am surprised nobody seems to know KolourPaint. It’s similar to MS paint. I use it, when I need to make a quick sketch, whiteboard style, e.g. when sharing my screen with a coworker.
Otherwise, I really must have Dolphin and Okular.
I love dolphin’s split mode (quickly toggled with F3) and its ability to seamlessly navigate all kinds of protocols for my NAS, webdav for nextcloud storage, MTP for the phone…
Okular has annotations which have been super useful to me. And it’s so easy to switch between viewing single page, two-page and multi-page. Which is great for skimming text documents and presentations. The auto reload ability is great when iterating on a document (e.g. latex doc or matplotlib chart).
Otherwise, of course firefox and thunderbird, not much to say here Please don’t use chrome. It’s market share makes Google the de-facto owner of www technology. But I guess I’d be preaching to the choir here.
+1 for vim. Although I usually use a stripped down gvim.
Didn’t know ncdu, will try.
I prefer btop to htop, the interface is much nicer.
For the terminal (and within vim) another must-have is fzf.
The partition running full did prevent me from updating the system. That surely can be somehow fixed. But with time and skill being limited resources in my life, it doesn’t mean that it is unimportant.
KolourPaint works very well for me.
Yeah, those are the same reasons I chose tumbleweed. Plus the rolling release.
I hope you made your system partition large enough. I had about 20G for / (excluding /home), which used to be enough for kubuntu, but quickly ran out of space on tumbleweed. I assume because of the Btrfs snapshots.
I reinstalled tumbleweed on a larger partition. Then couldn’t install the proprietary codecs, because of an error I couldn’t resolve.
Installed it a third time recently, now it runs smoothly.
Smoother? Can you give a specific example?
Great answers already, I’ll not repeat them. One thing I want to mention though is the interoperability of the Linux applications. Things work together well. With Windows (up to 10 at least, I haven’t used windows much in the last years) applications are mostly their own silo. In KDE it’s quite fluent. E.g. gwenview, the image viewer offers to open an image in krita, gimp, etc. It also offers an option to add a folder to the “places” list in dolphin (the file manager). Dolphin lets you quickly (F4) open and close a terminal at the current folder within its window. Small things like these make the system feel coherent.
The other big thing for me is the plethora of great apps you have out of the box. And the ease to install new ones without worrying whether you are the product.
