Are geese native to Q'onoS?
I've been toying with the idea of getting a second phone to put postmarket OS on. So out of curiosity I've been going through the available software checking if I could maybe even use such a device as a daily diver. The result: Not yet, but it is very close (purely from an app availability standpoint). Most use cases have functioning apps or apps that are actively worked on. I did however notice some gaps. Now, my programming knowledge is very small and I don't really have the time to learn and then develop/maintain the apps. At least not at the moment. I have been checking out penpot however. Penpot is a browser-based graphic design tool with a focus on UI/UX design tool, similar to figma, but open source. And there is a mostly complete asset pack for gnome/adwaita applications available. (Side note to everyone trying it out: If you are getting weird flickering then it might be a Nvidia/Wayland issue. Switching to X should resolve it)
Long story short: I have cheated some mock-ups for some apps that I am hereby sharing with the world. Some of them are a bit rough around in some places but maybe someone finds themself inspired by it. All of them are mobile first designs but since its Adwaitas design language it shouldn't be too hard to imagine how they would look on a desktop. If you decide to use one of my designs then you don't need to credit me (though it certainly would be appreciated)
I suspect that most people won't be familiar with (2/3 of) the underlying services that my ideas are build upon. Feel free to check them out; I recommend them wholeheartedly.
There used to be a piece of software called gnome recipes. But development on that app has since been abandoned and I think they had the wrong approach to it anyway. The old project aimed to not only supply the software but also the content, shipping a curated list of community supplied recipes. I am looking for a solution to save recipes from the numerous food blogs and recipe websites, that syncs using a (self hostable) online service. And wouldn't you know it such a service already exists in the form of "Cookbook" a nextcloud add-on. This app would simply act as an additional frontend. Import happens via a schema.org json template that a lot of websites use to store and display their content. That format does also allow to store nutritional information, meaning that nextcloud is also capable of saving that. I did not make place for that because it seemed to clutter the UI and I personally don't care too much about having that information easily accessible, especially since most sources don't include it in my experience. My mockup does include a floating button that allows to quickly jump between the ingredients and your last scroll position.
I was inspired by a Android/iOS app called [körbchen](koerbchen.app], which offers the same service but isn't open source or self hostable. An already hosted instance of nextcloud cookbook is operated for example by murena, the folks behind the /e android rom btw.
The Lyrion Music Server (previously known as Logitech Music Server) allows you to create your own wifi enabled speaker system (for example using a raspberry pi). Accessing music from your NAS, a webradio or steaming service is possible, complete with multiroom support (allowing you to chain multiple speakers together so that they play the same thing at the same time). But to operate such a system one needs a remote. The server offers a web app but that one isn't particularly nice.
Last but not least of course here is my idea how a gtk client could look like. I know there are already two projects which tried to build such an app, but development seems to have stalled or been outright abandoned. I tried to build !thunder_app@lemmy.world for Linux a couple of weeks ago. That worked reasonably well, but at the end it still feels alien because at the end of the day it is an android and ios app. Using it with a mouse felt even weirder because it is not designed that way. Anyway: Maybe third time is the charm for gtk apps.
If anyone else has similar mock-ups flying around on their hard drive, feel free to post them in the comments.
And that's totally fine. You do you. But
What do you mean? The UK is right there, land bridge to France and everything.
lets start with why you are getting this output: If you see a screen like this your app is pulled from the AUR. The AUR works different from the other repos. While the normal repos download standardized arch packages in the form of tar-archives the AUR takes a more radical approach: get the app on your system by (almost) any means necessary. So the AUR doesn't contain a package but a text file containing instructions. Where to download the necessary files, where to put them, that sort of stuff. In most cases the files is just the source code and your system will compile it according to the instructions in that text file. Compiling means it will turn the human readable programing in to computer readable stuff. In other words, it will create, or build, a standard arch package right then and there, on your system. That's why the text file is referred to both as "Build Files" or as Pkgbuild.
If you look at your screenshot, you see, that it first downloads your PKGBUILD and then shows the file as present (it uses the plural, because in exceptions there are additional files such as systemd-files that are downloaded as well).
When installing apps from the AUR yay will cache stuff to speed up build times. Performing a clean build means not using this cache. In most cases just pressing enter will work just fine.
And now is the part were I must warn you: Be careful with the AUR:
In conclusion. If possible stick with the repos and flatpak. If an app is not available this way you can use the AUR. If you use the AUR you can keep just pressing Enter until the app in question is installed. Just don't be surprised if the app breaks two months later because of something stupid the Manjaro devs did
Sure, but people were really mad earlier this year because Wizards of the Coast, the company that owns D&D tried to pull some licencing related shenanigans that would have massively fucked over the community. People were boycotting the movie a couple of months ago over that. It's interesting, that Baldurs Gate seems to not be affected by this at all.
The reason, you aren't finding anything, is that nobody really attempts to install premiere or after effects anymore on Linux. The alternatives have cought up and they are available for Linux.
Back to your question: making things work with wine has a significant drawback. Your system can break with every update. So you're not making it work just once but over and over again.
Oh, according to the entertainment weekly article Tawny absolutely demanded a scene with Uhura (or at least pitched it to the writers)
Why should we be sorry. Russia brought this on themselves.
I think the primary fear seems to be giving Meta access to our user data. The concerns seem to be not completely founded but even then there is still the uneasy feeling with helping facebook of all companies with their next project
Here is an example of how to use this:

One way to lighten the load on servers is to host your images externally. You can still embed the images into your post and nobody will be able to see the difference on first glance. The markdown to embed is:
