System configuration with OpenSuse’s Yast seems miles ahead of all the others (at least those I have tested 🙃).
It doesn’t look particularly nice. German functionality over design. And that it does well. One can do A LOT with it. Plus it’s free even in Tumbleweed.
You are someone in need. You’re not sponging resources. These resources are there to be used by someone who needs the help. You do.
You’re also not your mother.
You are around 20 years old? Means you likely have many more ahead of you. I had a couple of massive twists and turns in my life. Some within, some outside my control. I know enough people who will say the same. You simply don’t know what will happen tomorrow. Anyone who claims to even know what exactly the weather will be like in two weeks is just not telling the truth, let alone what a human life will be like tomorrow or in a few years.
Keep going! You only have one life. You don’t know what’s coming.
Sure, life can be incredibly tough, and it’s understandable to feel overwhelmed at times. However, unlike a painting, life isn’t a static object. It has ups and downs, and even when things seem completely ruined, there’s always potential for change, growth and even thriving. I actually have a little experience with that.
Staying with your analogy: if you spill ink on a painting, you might see it as ruined at first. But some artists use those accidents to create something new and beautiful. Like so, life can take unexpected turns, and what seems like a disaster now might lead to new opportunities. I am the person I am partly due to troubles and disasters in my life. Could I do without those? Sure. Should I? Not sure.
That all said, if you’re feeling like ending it all I can only encourage you to reach out for support. Talking to friends, family, or a mental health professional in your area can make a big difference.
Your life is valuable. You are important and valuable.
You’re not alone. Definitely not with life. There are people who care about you and want to help.
There’s no one answer fits all.
On life? Never. On your goals? Depends. On self-destructive behaviour? Now. On those you love? Never. On business ventures that don’t take off? You tell me.
Point is: life is rarely black & white. Treat it with the color and nuance that makes it what it is.
Fair. Just that the selection of quality games is rather limited.
IMO monetisation is fine, after all we all need to earn a living. To goad people into spending money is the issue. Enter dark patterns.
A one-off purchase after testing the first level? Awesome! Wait a few hours - or days - for a building to finish? Watch a deceptive ad for a meager reward over and over? No, thanks.
Agreed. Horrible news.
Hoping Syncthing-Fork will continue.
I just installed that on your recommendation.
Hoping for the best.
Here the link for anyone who wants to check it out.
I mean, I’m not a big fan of it either. On the other hand, I want Firefox to continue to grow and be actively developed and supported. If not from sources like these - to me unobtrusive - ads, where else can their revenue come from?
Not trying to be controversial. Just asking. What business opportunities would we support Mozilla in that we’d be happy with?
Good I’m on Tumbleweed then. 😁
Seriously, I will test it in a virtual machine.
Good point. Which distros handle it well?
Pixar sees these put up all over their offices.
(For those not yet in the know, this IGN report reveals trouble within Pixar.)
You can. That’s what I meant with folders. But I cannot position these icons and folders freely on a grid like the Win10 Start menu allows. Still, Gnome comes quite close.
Thank you. I might just have to switch to KDE for that. Will install KDE on my current GNOME environment. Will give it a test drive.
Thanks for the suggestion. I looked at it. It is basically a simplified Windows 7 menu. Decent, but it doesn’t go far enough for me.
Gnome itself is actually not bad. It has a full screen menu and arrangeable application icons and folders, but I cannot group them the way I want, let alone resize them. I wish there was something for Gnome, but I don’t see it.
Perhaps I am asking for an edge case. Even Microsoft has dumbed down its Start menu in 11 to essentially a mobile launcher. Too few people seem to want that.
This looks great.
Suggestion: a step-by-step “howto” with an example or three to make it more useful for beginners.
At least they’re moo-ving.
Big Oil puppet.
Can’t help but feel sorry. Not his fault that he was raised in a Neanderthal cave.
Go for it.
… and so forth. I don’t get paid to write this. 😄
More on this.
