‘ls’ is an abbreviation for ‘list’, not an acronym. Like copy -> cp, and the other keystroke saving abbreviations.

Ah, so now I have 7 workspaces that don’t survive reboots! Wonderful.

Bookmarks would be easier at this point.

Not when window history in only 3 windows long. That deletes 90% of my tabs instantly.

Managing that would be a nightmare too. Good luck alt-tabbing to the one you want.

Modified boost too.

This would also be nice for atomic distros, application space and system space could be separated in more cases.

Nah, 42,000$ is more natural and consistent with other units.

That compatability has been dropping recently, especially for games. Most of my CD games need extra libraries to run now, if they work at all.

I’m rocking an S8 as long as I can, but no updates in 5 years is starting to cause compatability issues. I’ll have to look into /e/OS soon I think.

All of those platforms have sources of revenue besides ads.

Nope, those “answers” didn’t help even once, so now they’re filtered out of search results, and DNS banned. Quora does not appear on my devices.

I found this bug report thread for KDE, and Chris posted a couple possible solution in there. Seems like a good starting point.

An alias can be used to see who is selling your address. If you give address B to only one organization and you get spam on B, then you know B sold your address.

Not exactly the most useful information, but it’s there.

Undead are just a lot more vulgar in chinese culture.

Those and “First!!!1!!” are obnoxious, but not actively harmful.

And actual scams with 300+ upvotes. Not just copied comments that get edited layer, but entire chains directing people to whatsapp numbers.

As a newcomer to CLIs, GUI are great because you don’t need to know what you’re looking for. I can just open the devices window, and they’re all there, with most of the extra hardware stuff that’s not actually a real device already cleaned out.

To do the same with a CLI would take me 10 minutes of looking up what the hardware commands are, 5 minutes figuring out flags, and 30 minutes researching entries to see if they’re important. Even just a collapsible list would make that last step so much easier. And no, I can’t grep for what I need, because I don’t know what I need, I just know something in there is important with a vague idea of what it might look like.

Once I figure that all out for one thing, the best I can do is write that to a notes file so I don’t need to search so far next time, but there’s a good chance that I’ll need a different combination of commands next time anyway.

Not hating on CLIs, just wishing I could figure out how to use them faster.

If you want waydroid to see files on the host, you need to muck around with bind-mounting a directory, or just using abd to move files manually.

I think waydroid can’t see anything beyond itself normally. I had a hell of a time trying to get files on there, so if there’s an easy way to get Waydroid to see files on the host, I couldn’t find it.

I’d say a Control Panel, I miss the plethora of authoritive knowledge and settings for every program, device, driver, network, user, and a dozen more things besides, all findable by browsing and not remembering dozens of commands. Of course I’d miss that either way, because Control Panel has been gutted every new version of windows since XP, but it was once nice.

The Start menu context menu, or SUPER+X, is still nice, although mostly for avoiding poor UI choices and slow menus. The fact that many useful options are guaranteed to be there on every windows machine is nice though.

And I would also say Event Viewer, despite how incredibly clunky it is to use. Having one place to check all system logs and track crashes of all kinds was quite useful.

Basically, windows at one point went out of it’s way to centralize settings and info, and that’s just not possible in Linux without a lot of setup.

I believe they’re talking about the W11 context menu, where most common options (like copy, paste, and delete) are replaced by icons that look almost identical to each other. They’re all soft rounded lines and have no defining features, which means you need to stop and parse the icon twice for every cut & paste. They also change position based on which options are available, so you can’t memorize the locations, and since delete is one of the options, I wouldn’t trust my memory.

Most of the interesting options like edit, run as administrator, open file location, readable copy paste options, or installed options like Edit with Notepad++ or 7zip > are hidden behind a Show more Options option, which just opens the window 10 context menu. Same styling and everything.

Basically, everything about the W11 context menu slows me down and nothing about it is more usable or helpful.

Did you know my profile picture is a Windows Vista background? I didn’t until a few months ago.
