This is perfect middle step, thank you!

Also using fedora kde :D

I’ve just never encountered a problem with focus stealing or alt-tab issues and leave my drawing tablet/second display plugged in. My friend who runs side by side monitors also has no problems on their arch kde setup. Might just be a weird hardware+application combination problem for some

Edit: try digging in the kde focus settings, I think theres an option to tune focus steeling

Might just br a gnome issue and not a wayland one, KDE and wlroots based compositors do much better at fullscreening and alt-tabbing games then x11 ever did for me. Esspecially on my desktop that has a second monitor

Defaults are good for me but I like mounting my secondary drive to ~/Storage with subfolders media, projects, games

Sorry I was referring to End4’s EWW/AGS shells not the frameworks themselves

Sorry for the late response

End4 is the first one that comes to mind since the dev has made a shell in most big widget framworks at this point. Great project to take inspo and some code from but AGS/EWW shells are archived

Hyprpanel is still being maintained and probably the best base to chose if your going with AGS

Otherwise check r/unixporn and sort top with the keyword “AGS” or “EWW” and your find a couple more

Ive seen some cool big projects made with AGS/Astal and EWW but their both gtk based, and gtk has been the defacto for years in making your own enviorment. Quickshell is intresting because its QT based instead, and since the ricing community likes new or different things were all trying out quickshell

I mean we have this as a real thing with “speed traps” where the limit just drops 10mph for zero reason for half a mile so cops can loiter and give tickets

But I feel as though speeds are already too high for the dumbfucks in giant SUVs who got their license 40 years ago and have lost every braincell related to safe driving due to a crippling alchohol addiction. I propose a “fast lane v2 electric boogaloo” on highways or long stretches thats only available once you take a special, much harder driving test that needs to be renewed every 6 months or so set at 120mph(extream flats) and can slow to 60mph(extremely weavy mountainside turns)

I giggled a little too hard since I actually ended up in a psych ward while moving cross country and made some friends there. Unfortunately my stay was 2 states away from the one I live in now so not even that worked out lol

But thank you for the advice and I think I’ll check out joining sometype of sport, most likely rock climbing(always had an intrest but never the motivation) since that seems to be widely recommended and just seems like a fun time even if I don’t end up meeting anyone

While I agree that we have the technology to wildly decreas emissions by just cutting down on inefficient production, I do want to point out people did infact starve due to covid/lockdowns. Many lost jobs, big corps took the opportunity to run mom and pop shops out of buissness, prices skyrocketed. My family wen’t from scrapping by to relying on food drives

If your truely going the endevour route, here some tips on recoving from a broken state:

• The archwiki is your friend, read the relevant pages before asking on forums

• Install arch manually (no archinstall) and thoroughly read the wiki to understand how your system is put together. Then install endevour, just from doing a manual arch install you should have the knowlage to fix like 90% of issues

• Learn the basics of systemD, will also help you on 99% of mainstream distros

• Keep your /home directory on a seperate partition, useful for doing a system rescue and for distrohopping

For me at least it is 100% a hobby. Sure when I’m actually working I’m either running plasma or riverwm basically stock, but it’s genuinly really fun to see how “hollywood hacker” based I can get my desktop to look. It also helps me learn more about interacting with the inner workings of linux since I like to modify things myself instead of using other peoples dots. I even made a shitty terminal application launcher using pure fish cause I wanted to see if I could, and it taught me a ton about .desktop files and binary locations and flags. That information I now use daily building my own applications

Not sure what your exact requirements are, but these three should work great as simple upload and share embed link type servers :0

Lychee: My personal choice even for my entire photo library since I just like things to be simple

Pellicola: Self discribed as “Pastebin for your photos”

Media Goblin: Lets you view more then just photos, might replace my lychee for non-photography use

Anything 8th gen or newer is going to run everything you need and then some. Ive seen people using that mini-pc as a full gigabit router even!

The previous comment talking about price to preformance of mini PCs is somewhat correct if were talking anout buying new, but absolutly wrong about buying used/refurbed. Regular PCs are widly more popular meaning they hold onto their price better. For selfhosting a used/refurbed mini-pc is probably the best form factor you can get when starting out

Why not just use a bluetooth or 2.4g remote?

Sorry yea bad wording on my part, I was intending “limiting” to refer to stopping companys from profiting off of your work without limits (controbuting back to the comminity)

Where are you hearing this?? The FSF has an entire licence dedicated to limiting commercial use of your software (the a-gpl), gpl-3 is also much more limiting which us why linus doesnt use it for the kernal, but few would call gpl-3 not open source. Open source means people can modify and redistribute your code, theres nothing preventing you from saying “This code is free (as in beer and freedom). Keep it that way)”

Microsoft offically supports and encourages using windows in a VM and container tho? It’s massivly important for developers and server admins to be able to do. Even regardless of that, they’d still prefer you to run a windows vm and keep their OS as a core dependency of your computing life

Krohnkite has a float mode (basically just disable) aswell as a float specific window. Unfortunately I cant access my desktop until much later but when I do I’ll grab the specific instructions

Should be under keyboard -> shortcuts -> window management(or something similar) -> krohnkite float
