Here’s a short video showing Jerboa first and then Interstellar. It’s hard to predict how this will play on your phone, but when I watch this full screen on my phone it makes both look worse than they actually are. In reality, Jerboa scrolls with zero jitter and Interstellar scrolls like Jerboa in the video.
I know you’re having a joke, but Barron’s taller than either of them - he’s 6’7" or 6’9" depending on who you ask.
I don’t see how it can work because in general left leaning people have a brain and the form their own opinions. We’re not out looking for some hero daddy figure to tell us what to think.
Building propoganda to make the current democrats seem good isn’t the solution. The democrats actually need to be good. But, of course, that will never happen because it would mean dumping the billionaires and the Zionists. We’re fucked.
Me too, but only because I very strongly lean toward “god was created by man” rather than the other way around.
I hate organised religion too, and I get what you’re saying but, like it or not, the pope is a world leader with a lot of influence - if he can use that influence to reduce the fighting (even if with selfish motives) then that’s a good thing.
I totally agree, and I just switched from Windows to Linux for my desktop, but this isn’t on Microsoft - it’s sanctions on the ICC by the fascist regime running the country where they (Microsoft) are based in support of the fascist regime destroying Gaza. (I know I’m probably over simplifying it, but that’s my take on the article)
It’s a little different, but works. I was in business operations for the last 20 years and relatively proficient with Excel. I’m retired now but I’m treasurer for a small community non profit organization. I recently switched to Linux desktop and found Calc handled my sheets with pivots etc. just fine. About the only thing I’m missing is End-Arrow to move to the last populated cell in a row or column, but not missing it so much that I’ve tried to figure out how to do it in Calc - yet.
I’m not sure how long ago “not that long ago” is for you - I just had a look through the history of KDE and, based on my familiarity with the various screen images posted there, I think is about 20 years since I last tried it :-)
I’ll have a look at cinnamon and cosmic - thanks.
I’ve thought about trying a tiling window manager, but I don’t think I’d get the benefit. I don’t really do a lot these days and normally just have one or two things going concurrently and with two screens that’s trivial to layout.
The main thing I struggle with (with my old eyes) is things like Firefox that override the normal window manager decorations - I find the edges get lost and they blend into each other. A tiling window manager would help with this, but I just turned off Firefox’s ability to do that.
Oh damn what were your reasons for moving from freebsd back to Linux?
My work was AIX, HP/UX and a bit of Solaris. Linux development was starting to get to the stage where our customers were looking at using it for “real” workloads and I figured I should get comfortable with it again so I’d be in a position to take on production servers at work.
I don’t think I’m concerned about being on older (stable) stuff - I really only use Firefox (I dumped the Debian release and added the Firefox repository) and a few utilities like a music player etc.
I was also considering openSUSE Tumbleweed and didn’t really decide not to do it - it’s just that a USB with Debian was sitting on my desk when I decided to do it, so that’s what I used. A big part of my anxiety about switching from Windows was getting my data under control - now that I’ve done that it won’t be an issue to switch distros so I might give it a go. I may even try Slackware again now that you’ve got me thinking about it.
I thought about that, and we have space available because my wife is still paying for office for her machine, but I just want nothing to do with Microsoft any more.
Because I only used it for a few months and it was a while ago! It was ony mentioned to age me. Not long after I installed it we got nice new RS/6000 860 laptops and I ran an AIX desktop for a couple of years. Then we got Intel laptops and Windows.
I went with Debian because I’ve been running Ubuntu servers at home for years (since zfs on Linux became solid enough that I could switch from FreeBSD) so I’m comfortable with apt package management and wanted to stick with that. I didn’t want to stay with Ubuntu because of the commercialisation creeping in.
simple webdav server that’s compatible with the Nextcloud sync clients
Now THAT is interesting - when I was last experimenting with Nextcloud I learned that the files part is just a webdav server. Unfortunately I also learned that they have a bit of a handshake before the webdav so the client wouldn’t work with my apache2 webdav server. Thanks!
That seems to be the case. Really sucks that the documentation at nextcloud.com directs people to the AIO. I guess they hope that if you have a bad time trying to install your own server you might buy their cloud service.
Yeah, I can see how someone that has “grown up with it” could be happy. But as and experienced sysadmin coming at it for the first time - the documentation is a bit lacking.
Because an android client is one of my requirements. I can get files from SMB on Android using any number of file managers, but I can’t map a SMB share to a filesystem so files are available for an app to use.
Yes! There used to be a little utility that could map a SMB share in Android, but that got killed years ago.
So, use something else
That’s why I’m here - looking for suggestions
like Seafile.
I’ll have another look - you’re not the only person to suggest it. My recollection is that it seemed to be old and not really maintained.
I’ve never used the AIO image. I’ve heard it’s weird.
It does seem to be. So, I find it weird that the “core” documentation leads a new user to installing AIO.
You could also try OpenCloud, which is a Go rewrite of ownCloud.
Sounds interesting - thanks.
Yeah - I needed that too 😁
