smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What movie would you most like to watch for the first time again?11·1 year agoI won’t be very original, but first thing that came to my mind is Fight Club.
But actually, it is best to watch the second time, once you know what is happening, but I want to experience this plot twist one more time. If someone didn’t watch it already, please so not spoiler it to yourself.
And this is how both Firefox and Chrome looks like.
cleaner UI
It’s a browser, with a tab bar and hamburger menu to access settings. A plain, boring, 2024 design web browser.
They might expect you to be available via the phone 24/7 and carry such sensor packed device anywhere.
a work appointed phone
With all the tracking that comes with it.
One thing that could help is showing what is going wrong. Do just the icon does not appear? Do some error show up?
But regardless, I see that Librewolf is not packaged in Debian official software repositories (online storage a software packages are downloaded from), so they ask you to add their own repository manually, which for APT case (package manager in Linux Mint) is an overwhelming amount of code to type to say at least.
You say you are a new user, so I can highly recommend that if something is not officially available through simple
apt install
to try Flatpak. Official guide: https://flathub.org/setup/Debian, TLDR:sudo apt install flatpak # Installs flatpak to your system flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo # Adds Flathub, the biggest store for flatpaks
Once it’s there:
flatpak install librewolf
Someone using Linux for years might know where stuff on system is placed and not fear not knowing what a command do and how to undo it. But if you don’t know what is happening, better to stick to distribution provided sources. Otherwise the equivalent would be like typing some commands in Windows to change registry keys :). I think Librewolf should recommend Flatpak by default instead.
Sorry if this is too much info, just tried to explain things a little more than usual.
smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux1·1 year agoIf by working reliably we mean working the same bad way as usual so it has already established multi million dollar industry made of giant patchwork keeping installations alive.
Microsoft cannot even change the look of right click menu without worring something isn’t going to break.

smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux23·1 year agoFor what I see as a helpdesk guy, most problems that are encountered origin from Windows being Windows, not tech knowleadge of some person. I cannot expect much from system where even installing stuff is stuck at pre 2000 era.
But Windows also have swap memory?
Maybe I do not understand shitposting…
smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•[solved] mounting system partition to /mnt has /mnt/@/etc7·1 year agoIt seems like they are subvolumes. How did you install the system?
When mounting a btrfs without any options root/main directory is containg subvolumes. Meaning that when creating a directory it is being created as subvolume, then in that subvolume there are regular files.
What does the
btrfs subvolume list /
say?Also as side note, there is nothing wrong with updating on GUI.

smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.deto Privacy@lemmy.ml•De-Google Your Life - Part 1 - YouTube LTT12·1 year agoLet’s hold the breath for the first bank or official exchange to support GNU Taler.
Yes. Unless you are a developer about to develop an app or are an organization, don’t touch Twilio.
I use Twilio for some testing and alerting and this is advenced control panel there.
smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•What are the best proprietary/paid apps for linux?19·1 year agoI won’t say it’s “best”, as I just want to run a game without friendlists and other bloat, so I really hate the fact Steam is nessesary for so many games.
But I would call it “essentiall”.
That’s just Bing down with all of it’s puppets rebrands.
You’ll use Chrome on your Android like all the others and you’ll not complain 👁️🗨️
