I wish there was a map of the FOSS internet (images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com)
 
 

I usually go to reddit and copy the first username that I see. Is there a quicker way to get a username like noun_adjective_number?

 

That is the last thing left for me to do before finally deleting the gmail account.

 

While TVs, laptops and PC monitors still have bezels for the most part, smartphones have accomplished a much superior screen to body ratio. Why is that?

 

You can't even see the history in many channels.

Don’t know if this goes here or in /AskLemmy, but just wanted to know the best FOSS social networks, why are there so good? What would be the propietary equivalent?

FOSS social networks don't sell your data or show you adds. Have you heard of alternativeto.net? You can see the different open source alternatives to any software you want in there

I think mozilla TTS is the best. But this questions should have been asked in /c/Open Source.

I've installed this one and it feels much better.

 

I've replaced all my apps for FOSS alternatives, but the keyboard I have now seems very difficult to write in compared to what I used to have. It just doesn't recommend me appropriate enough words to have to write less. I want something that I can add different languages and it has a fuzzy finder to let me select words by typing only a few characters. Is there something like that?

 

Something that lets me select a frequency above which all sounds would be filtered in real time? I don't know if a software can separate the high pitched sounds from the rest of the sounds. If it was possible that would be perfect. If not just removing all sounds when any sound goes above the threshold.

 

In Arch Linux I want to get a list of the packages installed and install all packages from a file. But I want to include packages from the AUR.

With pacman I can get the list of installed packages:

$ pacman -Qqe > pkglist.txt

And install packages from a list:

# pacman -S --needed - < pkglist.txt
`` `
 

zplug is giving me errors an since it is no longer maintained I may not be able to fix them. So if I were to change my plugin manager which one would you recommend?

 

Why aren't new terminals that use another language? It seems so antiquated getting errors for not writing the functions in the correct order among other things.

pop doesn't support folders, just an inbox. it's old and basic

mutt-wizard is quick and very clever and will probably give you a working config, but it can contain a lot of detail that you might not need or understand

oh, local folders. if you try to save to them, I think they should be created

Is this configuration what I'm looking for?

set pop_host = pops://username@mail.server.com:xxxx
set mbox_type=Maildir
set folder = "$XDG_CACHE_HOME"/mail  # default mailbox location
set spoolfile = +/  # unread or inbox
set mbox = +read
set record = +sent
set postponed = +drafts
set include  # a copy of the message you are replying

Are those folders created automatically or do they need to exist?

And what happens if I use this?

set pop_authenticators = "digest-md5"

Inspired by ask1234560/dotfiles_bspwm, rgaiacs/dotfiles, man page.

I've just learned about Mutt Wizard. Should I use that?

It looks wrong that there are many answers to a non existing comment.

[–] ajr@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I fixed it by using a different app.

[–] ajr@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Ok thanks. I had seen three issues talking about it so I thought they had already done it.

I found it lacking at best. I didn't even see the option to change the bitrate before recording.

I fracking hate discord. People use it for everything now, not just gaming, for the convenience of an easy to use cross-platform application. Almost every message board on the internet has been deserted and moved to discord. And it makes it so difficult to find anything useful. Every time I want to find something there I feel as if no matter how much time I spend using the search I'm never going to find it. And when I ask I feel as if the same question has probably been asked hundreds of times before and makes me feel dumb for not being able to find the answer. If you read the messages as they arrive, with just a couple of channels that you follow, your day is gone and you can't do anything else. Of course it makes it convenient not having to create an account for each website like before, but so does the fediverse.
