Doesn’t the office suite still have web versions available? I had to use Windows & Office a few years back. I strongly disliked the weird animated cursor and didn’t bother to dive into the settings, so I switched to the web version. It should apparently have been “worse than the app”, but it didn’t have the horrible cursor and it worked on Linux with Firefox as well.
Fair enough, I guess. I too find the syntax of some languages to be a bit unergonomic. Though, I could probably get used to them, given enough time.
I was just a bit curious, as Rust’s syntax is not nearly as exotic compared to its signature features.
What do you dislike about Rust’s syntax?
kAppIcon is a small icon manager for KDE Plasma and other freedesktop desktops.
According to the Readme, yes.
I didn’t look too deeply, but I assume it modifies .desktop files stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/applications/ and/or copies system.desktop files there to override them with modified versions.
If it works like I assume, it should work with anything that reads .desktop files from the standard locations.
I remember the characters, just not their names. I recognize the characters by their looks while they’re on-screen & by their voices if they’re not. But if they’re only mentioned, I can have trouble unless there is additional context or if they’ve appeared recently.
It’s also not like I can’t remember any names. I also have an easier time remembering a name if it’s a book instead of a tv series/movie, the name is interesting/otherwise memorable or if I’ve had enough exposure to it.
I’m just really bad at remembering names, both real and fictional.
I remember the TV series having a few scenes with the cowboy’s wife, mr house, etc. discussing that they should do the first strike. I don’t remember whether they were planning to hit China or themselves. Could also be that someone beat them to it.
Does Ventoy still have a blob problem?
You can also use the eject command. It used the device path (eg. /dev/sda), not the mountpoint.

No problem!
I just checked, and keepassxc does publish official AppImages.
In case you have permission issues on the drive on Linux, create another, small partition with ext4 or other filesystem that supports Unix permissions natively. Linux & other Unix-like operating systems use separate permissions for reading, writing and executing files/entering folders, unlike Windows. I don’t store programs on NTFS or any of the FATs, so I’m not completely sure how it works with the default settings.
Thanks! I’ll give swaylock another chance. I’m currently moving back to sway from the Hypr* ecosystem.
How much do sway{,lock}-effects add to the experience?
How did you rice swaylock? Would you mind sharing your config?
The program files, .exe files on Windows.
Edit: If KeepassXC publishes .appimage files for Linux, these work like Windows’ .exe files, so you could place both on the USB stick.
As I understand, it’s normally append-only. But, with some implementations, if a malicious entity controls most of the block production, they can undo recent transactions at will.
I remember seeing dates displayed in the wrong case. It felt like reading “June 15th of the mondays”. (and it would translate back to something pretty close to that)
Or Big Bad Cartel?
Sway’s default keybind for opening a terminal is super+return (line 68)
# Start a terminal
bindsym $mod+Return exec $term
note also that sway uses the foot terminal by default. (line 17)
# Your preferred terminal emulator
set $term foot
You can change these in the config.
It’s a good idea to read a bit about a WM from a wiki before use:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Sway
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sway
As others have already noted, the handbook is very good. You should be able to manage with limited Linux & terminal skills. (terminal navigation, can install a package with e.g. apt, etc.)
If you’re unsure about your skills, try using the terminal a bit. You can start with switching to the apt cli (command-line program) if you’re using a gui client. Or, you could try to do some basic, everyday tasks with it, like editing text with nano (or vim, if you’re feeling brave).
Just don’t forget to install important packages when installing Gentoo, like sudo (and add youself to sudoers), a DE/WM (KDE Plasma, GNOME, Sway, etc.) and a terminal. These things can be done later, by rebooting to the install media and chrooting, but it can be a bit annoying.
Don’t worry too much about mistakes, as everything is fixable, except things related to bad UEFI implementations.
Like others, I would recommend going with defaults for now. You can always tinker after the install. While a few things are a real pain to change or shouldn’t be changed, like going from no-multilib to multilib, most things can be played with later. Though I haven’t done it with a Gentoo system specifically, going from an unencypted system to encrypting all disks is very much possible.
