It's largely going to depend on your window manager or compositor,

But you can achieve similar results using python and your WM's hotkey options

Kde plasma has really good hotkey options

I think most people make the assumption that the current owner has always been the owner, and therefore they're the cause of obesity

It also doesn't help that the human obesity epidemic, and "body positivity" movement tend to normalize obesity in people's minds. I think some of the comments (mine included) are a response to this

Also, some owners just don't realize that they are overfeeding their pets, nor the damage that does to their pets

But that doesn't mean rude, insulting, or assumptive comments are justified


I would suggest mentioning your efforts at weight loss whenever you post pics, just to head off the stream of comments about the subject. That way, people can see you're both cognizant and proactive with the issue

I like Reddit / Lemmy's system best

Auto up vote your own stuff (or just don't allow self voting, same difference), and being able to see both up and down votes separately

Although i think the latter isn't a thing on Reddit

I haven't used Windows in a few years (and never used OneDrive), so pinch of salt time, but...

I don't like the idea of M$ having direct access to all of my files and personal data

That and, there have been mishaps with OD deleting files

Also, i personally don't like software automagic, especially when i don't understand what is going on under the hood

Is OD just a folder? Where are my documents actually stored? What happens if my internet goes out? How much do i trust M$ to not bungle something or sell or leak my files?

IIRC, it was actually Webster, who was writing the dictionary, decided to simplify spelling

A large amount of spelling differences between the US and UK like mould/mold and center/center, are due to him

We kinda do, with GPS satellites that have to correct their clocks due to the effects of gravity and speed

And communication with space probes

~~It's an explicit "opt-out" by the OP, such that their content cannot (legally) be used to train LLMs or such (Chat GPT, Github Copilot, etc)~~

Well, that's what I assumed until i read the license terms. It doesn't explicitly mention AI or LLMs, but it does say

You may not use the material for commercial purposes

Which i assume has the same limitations for AI training, for commercial AI

My biggest issue with wayland was screensharing on Discord, but plasma 6 fixed that with xwaylandvideobridge

I've been using Wayland as a daily driver for a few years now, and I'd say it's ready for 98% of use cases

Boost by default loads a lower resolution image (even while viewing the image). If you tap on an image to "full screen" it, there should be a button in the top right corner labeled "HD". Tapping it should load the full resolution image

Alternatively, go to "Settings > Advanced > Media Viewer > Load HQ images" to always load full resolution images

If you could actually do everything in the settings app that you could do in the control panel after 3 versions of windows I don't think it would be so universally disliked

This was my biggest gripe with the settings app when I still used Windows

I use linux now, and for someone like me who likes to tinker and script, it has been amazing
