Building something from scratch is really overwhelming, and you often pay a lot

What happened to my background/desktop? ( lemmy.world )

After an update I noticed discover was this weird yellow color, I opened settings and noticed it too was yellow, thinking it was some bug, I restarted PC, now everything is yellow. I tried inverting colors but that is something completely different. I'm not even sure what was updated to cause this....

boredsquirrel ,

Looks like your accent color automatically gets chosen from the background. But I didnt know that that many icons have different colors??

I only know Dolphin changing color

boredsquirrel ,

Ooooh lol! I thought that was your sky color.

You dont need Redshift, uninstall that. Plasma has its own tool for that.

Did you do some frankenstein install on top of Mint??

boredsquirrel ,

Came over night on Fedora Kinoite.

Quite like it, everything is rooound. In Dolphin with the right-click select I can now make a circle!

But why are the lower window borders still square? And that is with Qt/KDE apps!

boredsquirrel ,

Poorly it introduced multiple crashes this session... error reports already sent, btw I dont think downloading debug symbols works on Fedora Kinoite?

boredsquirrel ,

Damn this hits hard.

Sometimes I say "no I dont start watching that movie at 12:00 now" and bam! it's 3 am...

boredsquirrel ,

Plan in a session each day and be next to her, just watching her.

That would be what helps me most, planning in a timespan and then having someone look at me to not fuck it up

boredsquirrel OP ,

Yes, I formerly used that. But as it is unusable, I left it out

boredsquirrel OP ,

Same

boredsquirrel OP ,

I dont think the text input is in the kernel?

boredsquirrel OP ,

Hahaha thats absurd

boredsquirrel OP ,

No idea I avoid those like hell, the press is too slow and it is always changing.

Really, the inventors of "intelligent context menus" can go to hell

boredsquirrel OP ,

What? Screenshot or I dont believe you

boredsquirrel OP ,

Wow. Dude.

Wow.

Now look at the post and see that I literally added that keyboard, plus any random keyboard people mentioned in comments.

boredsquirrel OP ,

Its keys are too small and not configurable, basically that.

boredsquirrel ,

When wind blows, the earths rotation speeds up

boredsquirrel ,

Well why not use a gmail so they dont get a personal mail account or something

boredsquirrel ,

OSMAnd is good for adding POIs, Streetcomplete for updating a lot of data

boredsquirrel ,

What the fuck are these arguments.

boredsquirrel ,

I wonder what will happen when that war is over.... nothing? Just continue to produce weapons?

boredsquirrel ,

If you want peace, dont buy Russias oil for decades.

boredsquirrel OP ,

Same here. I can add the explanation

boredsquirrel OP ,

Its a total pain. I use F-Droid Basic for the feed, adding repos, viewing the contents, and the said share feature.

Obtainium has a pretty cluttered UI but it is not a store yet the combo with F-Droid Basic (having manually disabled everything regarding updates) is the compromise.

boredsquirrel OP ,

I couldnt find one.

If you enter the repos address in a browser it just shows the generic "fdroid repo - qr code" page.

But for sure some way to go into the repo list has to be possible

boredsquirrel OP ,

DivestOS makes Mull, F-Droid waiting is just their inability to view into their processes. I dont think there is any form of review included, between upgrades.

boredsquirrel OP ,

https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/

This one supports many and also newer ones, but for some reason not DivestOS main and a few others.

boredsquirrel OP ,

You use code made by another project. They have their own repo.

boredsquirrel ,

This is so fucked up.

We need to use other methods than voting. We are so close to a complete surveillance dystopia in Europe. And it is already really bad.

boredsquirrel ,

Approved

boredsquirrel ,

A library is paid though.

Donate to your instance, and decentralize the Fediverse.

boredsquirrel ,

Where i come from you can go there and read for free, but if you want to borrow stuff you need to have a card which is paid my an abo.

And they will also get money by the city likely

boredsquirrel ,

Welcome to Germany! Fucking hell here

boredsquirrel ,

The problem is that micro-payments are a pain in the ass. On Liberapay I often pay people 2 years in advance which is then pretty much

boredsquirrel ,

Without telling your distro this question is not helpful.

Discover uses packagekit, an abstraction layer that can do things like install, update, remove on many different distros.

So this might be distro-independent, but maybe not.

Try to enter in the terminal pkcon upgrade and if a GUI password prompt pops up, click on "expand" and see the action that is used like org.somenama.packagekit_update

This GUI prompt might also already be the one you described

https://github.com/boredsquirrel/Linux/tree/main/polkit

boredsquirrel ,

I used Neon for a while. Again, can you please give the needed information. If the password dialog shows, at the left click on "expand"/"show more" and you see the exact action that is executed.

Then have a look at the rules in my linked repo, and replace the action in "libvirt" with that, and the group with "wheel"

(Use groups and send me the output, no idea if the sudo users are in the sudo group on Ubuntu)

Then send that rule, embed it in

```
Rule
```

To format correctly. I look at it and if it is correct, we go on.

boredsquirrel , (edited )

I have examples in the repo I linked

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
  if action.id == "org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-update" {
    if subject.isInGroup("wheel") {
      return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
  }
});

Please ask KDE Neon devs, if placing this rule as /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/packagekit-update.rules is safe

boredsquirrel ,

That was only one of the requested info. But I edited the rule.

boredsquirrel ,

Please ask KDE Neon devs.

We are looking for a new set of Community KDE Goals to work on.

What should KDE focus on over the next two years? Are you ready to share your vision, time and stamina to push KDE to the next level?

Let's evolve KDE together! Find out more here: https://blog.lydiapintscher.de/2024/06/05/what-should-kde-focus-on-for-the-next-2-years-you-can-propose-a-goal/

@kde

boredsquirrel ,

Make Fedora Kinoite beta and nightly official testing Distros. It makes so much more sense to base off modern but tested packages, and to use an atomic distro for keeping the other issues aside.

But if you also need to support messy package based distros with their broken package managers, that is for sure problematic.

Amarok, KDE's legendary music player, is out with version 3.0.1.

boredsquirrel ,

What is the difference to Elisa really?

I used Elisa and found it quite unusable for folder-structured music.

I only used folder structures as I found no say so sync .m3u playlists including the music files between Android and Linux. Finding a way here would be great.

boredsquirrel OP ,

That took me long to understand. No if it was effective, you didnt need a good prompt
