Depends a bit on the age I think. A 15 year old laptop is nowadays low end, no matter how high end it was when released. Maybe I am using the term low end incorrectly though, please let me know.

Its a 1660Ti, so really not a low end laptop lmao

I'm processing orders for an online shop so a lot of what I do is printing different things on different printers (different labels with different sizes etc) so I wrote a few little JS scripts to inject into the Webshop to automate downloading the different labels, and an accompanying AHK script to automatically print the labels to the correct printers. Instead of 10-20 inputs I just press one button now.

"Everyone can be rich" - no.

For one to be rich, another needs to be poor. Rich and poor are entirely relative terms.

You're saying that as if I've never used one. I have, and I don't see a difference to just washing my hands with water. But to each their own ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

These are mostly a myth to my understanding.

There is some theory on how the chromium in stainless steel could help with breaking down and removing the smelly compounds from onions and garlic off your hands, but there aren't any studies proving this.

In my experience just properly washing your hands with water for 15-20s works just as well. I think the "soap" kinda works because it tricks people to not just rinse their hands.

Yeah rice is impossible for me with anything but wooden chopsticks

Personally I really like jungletrain.net

I like to listen to internet radio. There are plenty of stations for different genres.

If you're on Linux, shortwave even allows you to immediately save a local recording if you like a track.

The only context I could give is that there are similar videos, for example one of a plane with crocodile features where the voice keeps saying (bombardillo crocodillo". It's just random = funny humor, I think

 

e/OS is a privacy focused android version that still allows users to install apps from the Play Store by spoofing user data. It uses it's own store called App Lounge, and it works fine for most apps. For some reason, Boost for Lemmy doesn't install when I click install, like all other apps, instead it opens the Play Store website inside a webview. Installing from the website doesn't work for me. I was wondering if the developer provides the APK somewhere? I only found some sketchy links so far.

I know firefox has the very useful "Copy clean Link" option in the context menu, but I would like a similar feature for copying links from any other software, like spotify for example. So I am looking for some software that hooks into the clipboard pipeline, and cleans any URL that gets added. I tried googling for something like it, but was completely unsuccessful. Does anyone have a clue how I might go about achieving this?

Thanks in advance :)

Edit: I found out about klipper's actions, which provide the option to run a command when a string that matches a regex is added to the clipboard buffer. I am not sure how to properly use this though, so any help is appreciated!

 

I am interested in installing a de-googled android on my phone, but I would like to try it out a little bit first. Is there some way to emulate a phone on my PC, or is there anything like dual booting on phones?

I'm on KDE Plasma using wayland, and I'm annoyed with KDE's emoji picker. Well, the interface is fine, I just want emojis to immediately be pasted into the text field that was in focus when I used the shortcut to launch the emoji picker. Basically I want the behavior to be as close to the Windows emoji picker as possible.

Does anyone know of an alternative that allows me to quickly type 2 different emojis in succession? Bonus points when it's easily available on arch.

 

He's such an idiot sometimes. I love him

 

So I installed pop on my laptop a few months ago, and recently got another one where I installed arch. On both laptops I mostly just watched series, and often times I'd just leave the laptop with the media player still open.

Now to the issue: Randomly throughout the day, it would just start playing whatever I left open, usually after a few hours of being left alone. Now that I think about it, I think it was only crunchyroll. Does anyone experience anything similar, or might even have an idea as to how to fix this or what causes this? Is it just crunchyroll being buggy?

 

I was thinking about some raw fish or something like that, he seems to really like salmon. Any suggestions or things to watch out for?

 

I am designing a tshirt with a friend and we wanted to put some japanese on it. Since my japanese is extremely basic (こんにちは、ミカです) I wanted to ask whether the symbols DeepL gave us mean what we think it means. We want to have a skeleton inside a water bottle and the text should read "stay hydrated" and we got these symbols: 水分補給. Do they work in that context? Or are there any better suggestions we could use? Thanks in advance!

 

I use KDE on arch and would like to achieve the following behavior:

Whatever way I launch Konsole, I want it to check whether there already is a Konsole instance. If one exists, it should be brought into focus, and if no instance exists, one should be launched.

I am unable to find such an option in the Konsole settings, even though I found a roughly 1 year old forum entry mentioning such a setting. Was it removed or am I just blind? Or do I need some optional dependency?

Alternatively, it would be fine if this could simply kick in when I use my Super+K shortcut, which I've set up. Maybe there's a way to call Konsole from the terminal like that? I tried using konsole --force-reuse but it didn't seem to do the trick, and konsole --new-tab does not bring Konsole into the foreground.

Edit: Here's a script that does this, by @[email protected]

#!/bin/bash
WIN="$(kdotool search --class org.kde.konsole | head -1)"
if [[ "$WIN" != "" ]]; then 
    kdotool windowactivate "$WIN"
else 
    konsole
fi

kdotool is available in AUR as kdotool-git

I recently bought a Drop ENTR, and I would like to use the media keys. On the drop.com website it says that using FN + the F-keys should work, but “Fn hotkeys may work with Windows operating system only.”. Well, for me it doesn’t work. Any ideas as to why that could be, or how I could go about creating a workaround?

obligatory I use arch btw

 

I have 2 relevant drives. The system drive, and a drive with my game files. The drive with the game files is mounted. However, it is not displayed under "Other devices" and I am unable to select it from /dev/

Installed it using yay from AUR (aur/heroic-games-launcher-bin 2.14.1-1).

Any ideas as to what may be causing this, or how to go about troubleshooting?
