Yea they keep all the data. I deleted everything on my account when the whole shitshow happened and then GDPR requested the data associated with the account and it was all still there. And when I requested that they delete that too they outright refused.

I have seen some people reporting non working audio with Pulseaudio as well, but I haven’t tried myself or looked more into it after I found what fixes it for me.

No audio is not a Steam Deck only issue, its broken for a lot of people on Linux.

I don’t know what the deck uses but -sdlaudiodriver pipewire in launch options fixed it for me.

The rest of it sounds like a nightmare tho.

If you don’t want to bother with the bootloader like the other comment mentioned you can also just use the boot menu from the motherboard instead. You gotta mash f11 (or whatever it is on your motherboard) on boot when you want to go into Windows, but if you only need it every once in a while it is good enough.

I am not from NL, so dunno how it is there, but over here that money is completely untaxed, so it is not quite the same as getting a raise. And yes, if you move the amount you get changes. But noone is dumb enough to move just to get more travel money, it barely covers gas costs, you would just be wasting your time lol.

I don’t get how workers having rights and benefits is ridiculous. Honestly I think claiming that it shouldn’t be a thing is the ridiculous part.

EDIT: just saw its untaxed in NL too, I guess the difference between us and NL is that for them its typical to get that paid, for us is straight up illegal for your employer not to pay that.

This is idiotic. No one compensates employees for their commute.

Yea, thats not true. Where I live any employer legally has to do it. They either pay a certain amount per kilometer (defined by law) or pay your public transportation fee. I rack in about 300€ of travel compensation every month which covers fuel costs. Having to pay to get to work seems to bizzare to me.

Also wait till you learn our lunch breaks are paid and on top of that the company has to either provide a meal or compensate you for that too…

Technically yes. Switched from software dev to QA at a different company. Worse pay, worse commute, 0 regrets. My current company asked me if I would want to work as a dev instead, nope, can’t pay me enough to do that again.

Look at the screenshot I posted, it actually specifies “ctrl + g” for help.

Then you press ctrl+g for help and it tells you:

Shortcuts are written as follows: Control-key sequences are notated with a ‘^’ and can be entered either by using the Ctrl key or pressing the Esc key twice.

:D

Actually TIL about pressing esc twice.

And the whole time you have nano open it shows you all the shortcuts how to save and close at the bottom, so no, closing nano is not harder.

Oh yea, that makes sense. The Chrome ones get super super small I think right? Has been a very long time since I last used it. I personally like it the was FF does it because I can more easily tell what tab is what, but I can totally see how it you would dislike that.

Also good to know something like Sidebery exist.

Thanks for your answer :)

I am genuinely curious what is your issue with the tab bar? I got a long list of issues I have with FF (still my main browser anyways) but the tab bar is not one of them and I always have 20+ tabs open. Not saying your opinion is wrong, just trying to understand why you think so.

I might change my mind still since it has been only a few weeks since I switched to it but so far I am really happy with Arch. Been having a lot less issues than with Manjaro which was my go to before.

Ubuntu for servers tho.

Our .fyi predates the lemmy instance by a few months. The owner thought the domain was funny and bought it a while back, but had nothing to do with it so it just got used when we decided to get a lemmy instance up. So I assume at least some of them are random domains people already happened to own anyways.

But the main reason is the one people already mentioned and its because they are cheap.

.ml, .ee and .me are howevet not obscure. They are country TLDs (Mali, Estonia, Montenegro).

Honestly I can’t give you a proper answer here. I never actually thought about it before so I just looked up the Slovenian law about it (I don’t speak German so I didn’t bother with the Austrian one) and I couldn’t find anything that specifically says that the snow poles must/can’t be there between XY dates (just a bunch of stuff about how they gotta be positioned). If I had to guess it is a mix of these things:

• Aesthetics
• Visibility
• Giving the road workers something to do
• It is how it has always been done. Before these combo bollards became a thing and in places they still haven’t replaced the old ones they still add/remove a full on wooden snow pole next to the bollards every year.

There might be some other reasoning for it too, but this is what comes to mind as possible options.

I am a big fan of the Slovenian/Austrian combo snow pole+bollard. I think they are such a clever thing for places where it snows enough to cover the actual bollard and doesn’t require workers to drag around a bunch of snow poles every winter, they just gotta pull them out.

Bollards, roads signs and other road signalisation. It is honestly a problem.

The American is how it is supposed to be.

The British one has the “color” changed changed to “colour” due to British spelling of color.

The Spanish one has an upside down semi colon because in Spanish you write questions like this: ¿Is this an example question?

The French one is because the French number system makes absolutely no sense and to say 99 you have to say quatre-vingt-dix-neuf (meaning 4 x 20 + 19).

I hope this helps somehow.

Not that many sadly and from my understanding you need to be invited by them to join. There is 240 currently if it loaded and counted them correctly for me. They have a list of them here. It works for me because a lot of them make exactly the content I am interested into, but might not work or you or anyone else depending on taste.
