Why YSK: Using these instead of made-up domain names reduces the chance of confusing readers, eliminates the possibility of phishing attacks, and avoids sending unwanted traffic to made-up domains if they happen to belong to someone.
Even without AI, I find the modern web’s flood of unnecessary javascript unbearable. You might want to try Firefox Reader View, which helps on many sites (like this one).
Alt+Wheel works for me. Plasma 5.27.5, Qt 5.15.8, Okular 22.12.3.
Is it possible you have overridden the default shortcuts, or something is interfering with them?
Do you have an unusual mouse wheel, like one that rolls freely instead of in steps, or a touchpad-simulated one?
Maybe you’ve discovered a Plasma 6 bug?
Yes, Alt+Wheel normally works. I think it’s a standard shortcut in Qt apps. (Gtk apps use Shift+Wheel.)
This assumes you’re not in Fit Width or Fit Page mode, of course.
Not rendering. Muxing, which is short for multiplexing. Lots of software can do this, including MKVToolNix, ffmpeg, and GPAC/MP4Box. If you’re also encoding the video, Handbrake could do the job.
Are you talking about selecting multiple unconnected sections of text, so that they are highlighted at the same time? I think that’s a Firefox feature.
Or are you talking about selecting something and then something else, so that only the last thing is highlighted, and finding both selections listed as separate items in KDE’s clipboard manager?
It uses a dbus service definition to make it re-launch when that service is called.
Petition the KDE maintainers to make it work like all the other KDE Background Services, rather than the ridiculous current approach of launching it at session start (whether the user wants it or not) and allowing systemd to automatically re-launch it (also against the user’s wishes).
If you’re comfortable with user-contributed task switchers downloaded with the Get New Task Switchers button, there’s one called MediumDefault by user “adhe” that resembles the one I last used on Windows. I don’t know if it’s different in modern Windows versions.

I hope it stays decommissioned. We’re burning up the planet too fast already, and old computers tend to be far less efficient than modern ones.
A cautionary tale from the digital trenches. Good luck with the cleanup.
Why would it matter the reason of dropping a file of X size? The point is that not all applications are “decent” and some will undoubtedly use /tmp because “it might be the most logical thing” for any developer that’s not really up to date.
It matters because it’s the difference between a real-world situation, and a fabricated scenario that you expect to be problematic but doesn’t generally happen.
All filesystems have limits, and /tmp in particular has traditionally been sized much smaller than the root or home filesystems, regardless of what backing store is used. This has been true for as long as unix has existed, because making it large by default was (and is) usually a waste of disk space. Making it a tmpfs doesn’t change much.
The point is that not all applications are “decent” and some will undoubtedly use /tmp because “it might be the most logical thing” for any developer that’s not really up to date.
In my experience, the developers of such applications discover their mistake pretty quickly after their apps start seeing wide use, when their users complain about /tmp filling up and causing failures. The devs then fix their code. That’s why we don’t see it often in practice.
I don’t see how reviewing the tmpfs helps in this scenario if at all…
I mentioned it in case it helps you to understand that the memory is used more efficiently than you might think. Perhaps that could relieve some of your concern about using it on a 16GB system. Perhaps not. Just trying to help.
we are talking about end-users your common joe/dane running your day to day applications, whatever they may be.
We are? I don’t see them echoing your concerns. Perhaps that’s because this is seldom a problem.
Why would you drop a 10GB file in /tmp and leave it there?
Every decent app I’ve used that processes large files also moves them to a final location when finished, in which case it makes sense not to use /tmp for those, because doing so would turn that final move operation into a copy (unless you happen to have /tmp on the same filesystem as the target location). That’s why such applications usually let you configure the directory they use for their large temp files, or else create temp files in the target dir to begin with.
For what it’s worth, I changed my /tmp to a tmpfs years ago, even on a 16GB system, for performance and to minimize SSD wear. I think it was only ever restrictive once or twice, and nothing terrible happened; I just had to clear some space or choose a different dir for whatever I was doing.
It’s worth reviewing the tmpfs docs to make sure you understand how that memory is actually managed. It’s not like a simple RAM disk.
it wasn’t hard to implement huge part of the markdown specification.
I wonder why you implemented part of markdown, rather than using QTextDocument’s existing markdown support. Is something that you need missing?
I already have some patches up for review in Qt.
Will you submit one for Qt’s markdown functionality as well?
Threads? How disappointing. The White House would do better to operate its own fediverse presence.
I’m glad to see revived interest in a full-featured music player.
Others who find Elisa too simplistic might want to give Cantata a try. Unfortunately, its development has stopped, but it still works well in my experience. (It uses mpd for decoding and playback, so formats and encodings remain up to date, and that stuff stays hidden in the background rather than burdening the user with mpd configuration/management.)
I used Clementine for a while when I was on a Gtk desktop, but privacy problems led me to abandon it. (It loaded Spotify’s proprietary code blobs and quietly pinged geolocation services without asking my permission.)
Most Kirigami apps don’t both with this at all
Was that part of the sentence an autocorrect error? I don’t know how to parse it.
For the curious, you can find the uncropped photo by searching Lemmy posts for “Lenna”. It was posted to !retro@lemmynsfw.com a few months ago.
Edit replacing my original comment:
Looks like that package has been superseded by org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze. That’s what I’m using, and it is receiving updates.
