yeah i'm running a lts distro but keep the kernel up to date, it's super simple, there's even gui apps for it
xtools
it's fun for microcontrollers, for when you get bored with software and want to venture out into hardware
true for eg MS' C++ extensions or copilot - they actively block installing and running it on codium, based on some internal "app name" config of the IDE.
there's a workaround for that though. install both codium and vsc, install extensions on vsc, symlink the ".vscode" folder to ". vscode-oss", and edit codium's app info json (forgot filename) to match vsc's (mainly the "app name").
last step needs to be done after each update, but can applied with a script, happy to share if anyone needs it. Just make sure the installed codium- and vsc versions match.
better compatibility with MS Office documents. I've had plenty of Word docs and Excel sheets breaking or fritzing out in Libre Office, whereas OnlyOffice opens them without issues
i agree - the last letter in FLOSS stands for software, and everything before that is describing qualities of that software. the term has nothing to do with hardware per say in my opinion.
i'd play that
I've recently set up Baikal on a cheap shared host. It doesn't even need a dedicated database, it just creates a file-based sqlite db. i've just copied some files to a php webhost and followed the quickstart guide for setup, i'm pretty happy with the result
how would that work with wifi? i get how they could block stuff for particular sim cards, but can't that be circumvented by connecting to the nearest wifi?
worked fine for me. this was always my grievance with gnome, i couldn't find an option to reliably theme kde apps, so half of my programs looked differently
hmmm this always worked ootb for me on gnome- and kde-environments. what distro is using thunar?
