No irssi in IRC is blasphemy!

Romania or Bulgaria?

Hope it's not too late. Do you have one left for me?

What am I doing wrong? I installed the Firefox add-on, addded some RSS feeds then closed the tab. When I opened it again, I got an empty faidycat feed, as if I added nothing.

This is mainly because of poorly designed sites - including sites with TONS of js ads that obfuscate the text.

Come to Romania. You'd be surprised.

Wait a minute! I use KDE Plasma for at least 2 years constantly and it knows my monitors. I use one at work and one at home and when I plug them it automatically changes resolution and keeps the wallpaper I set for each. Also, got a lot of colleagues switch to Plasma from Gnome for exactly this reason!

I'm on Android so it works, but I also used Nextcloud for some time and had issues with it "forgetting" about the data folder, so I had to re-create it every time it happened. I wasn't happy about that.

With Syncthing I don't (yet) have this problem.

This looks great and feels a lot like beets [1] for music, only that they use a database. I'll try it when I have the time to re-organize ~20 years of photos.

You should read Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. He writes about some of his patients experiencing synesthesia. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1297985.Musicophilia

I've used Fedora (albeit not with Gnome) for more than 5 years at my job and didn't have major issues with it. If you're the kind of people that think Fedora = Gnome, then that's not true. You can have Fedora and run KDE, XFCE and whatever else you want. But I agree, Gnome sucks.

you know you can do

   choco install googlechrome firefox 7zip vlc git ...

?

At the same time I've had instant search in menus in Linux (gnome, kde, xfce, whatever, you name it).

Let's make a unix game where you can't type commands in a terminal emulator... OK! Plus, facebook login? fuck off!

Never saw a more boring presentation in my life. Almost everybody looked like they wanted it to end. They almost ran off the stage the second they finished talking. And the crowd was bored too...

Sorry, but when you throw around $2000 you'd expect a better product. Especially when you come from an older version of the device. And every customer has the right to complain about this. So no, they won't leave you in peace - they got every right to do so. Apple did a bad thing and took years to recognize it.

I have a Mazda 2 (2017 model) with a touchscreen, but my model also has a rotary control knob which works great - I never have to touch the screen - in fact it's being disabled when I reach 30km/h. The nastiest problem I have is bluetooth volume - where FM/USB (mp3) playback at volume 9-10 (out of 50) are perfect, for bluetooth I have to be at 34-37 to be on the same level. And the problem is when switching between them - the horror!!! But even worse is if I forget to activate bluetooth on my phone and start the car, which after a few seconds of trying to connect to the phone switches automatically to FM and BLARES the fucking sound at me! It's insane.

I didn't have this problem with a Sony player in a rather old car (Opel Astra 2001). It remembered the volume setting for each function separately, so when you switched between FM, usb playback or bluetooth you had the volume you used previously for each.

I contacted Mazda with this problem, but they never bothered to answer.

It's not as good as those on Thinkpads.

I've been using it for almost a year without any problems at all. But I have just a simple connection to my home network. No internet routing or anything complicated. Debian server / fedora & android clients.

I don't know what theme he was using but my setup looks so much nicer. It depends a lot on the theme, font choice and rendering.

You can opt out of the redesign if you go to your profile. Also, if you use it in the browser on your desktop, reddit enhancement suite is the best add-on you can use. Works with (almost) any browser.

Sync for Reddit is one of the best out there. Very customizable and the developer is very responsive and open to suggestions.

Never try to travel with a train in Romania. The infrastructure is totally wrecked. Trains are always late, even when weather is perfect, but if you're coming during summer you'll be late because "the rails are too hot" and in winter you're late because of the cold. It's a shame - we've reached the level where the average speed for trains is around 30km/h, lower than 50 years ago. Also, the trains are dirty and people inconsiderate of anyone else but their companions.

At the same time, I was delighted to travel with trains in Czech Republic when I lived there for one year. Not sure about other Eastern European countries.

press a single key combination, of course! but in vim!

This makes me lose my shit every time I want to see a simple jpg image in Windows 10. WHY?? Even my 14 year old linux laptop can open 100+ MB images faster than W10.

How can you live in 2019 without an ad blocker? I'm on that page and never got any ads/intrusions.

I read the title as Snowden and was wondering if some schoolboy was rescuing him from Russia...

That was no surprise for me, after using XBMC/Kodi for a few years with CEC support through HDMI. It was so natural to just pause/resume from the remote control that now I'm surprised people didn't know about this.

How can you say it's a trend when firefox has a low market share compared to chrome?
