Haven't they added telemetry and all that? Shame if so.

I like k9. Let's see if this improves it, or not.

People overestimate the percentage of immigrants in their country in c/[email protected]

10% off isn't bad for a casual onlooker at their community. That's 90% accurate.

Apart from a couple of countries, the percentages are small. The graph is distorted as it's not showing the full 100%

Looks like most people, in most countries, are pretty close to accurate.

That's called a hyperbole spout. Not a water spout.

Unhappy meal? Submissions overwhelmingly reject Wānaka McDonald's in c/[email protected]

Wanaka was a beautiful dream when I visited. A truly beautiful place.

McDonald's would have turned it into an outer Sydney western suburb.

It's pretty much that simple.

A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy.

Doesn't IMAP sync anyway?

Been using Thunderbird and K9 for years. All is the same on both.

That screen shot is gold. Gaming on Linux is dead to me. Thanks for sharing. It should all be public.

Ultra flex nib, will these nibs fit my pen? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi all,

I use pens for drawing.

I'm looking to get an ultra flex nib from this company:

I have a jinhao x750 that I'm using as a test pen.

Will these nibs fit it?

Thank you.

What is the maximum image file size I can upload here? (lemmy.ml)
 

Whenever I try and upload an image, it does not work.

Somebody reminded me recently that if you resize the image and make the file size smaller, it will work.

I'm wondering if anybody knows what the actual file size is as a maximum that I can upload?

Rather than just wing it, I would like to create a script that will create the appropriate file size.

I don't want to be greedy and use up heaps of resources, but I'd like to find what the happy balance is and make sure it works within the limits of the system.

Thank you so much.

Haven't painted in awhile, something loose felt light and the colors blended nicely.

Seriously, take a guess, I don't know since she was adopted and the agency didn't know.

Docklands... hmmmm (lemmy.ml)
 

Visited for the first time.

What a soulless, almost theme park like place.

I can't imagine living there, walking out of my unit, into the street.... to what?

Plastic fantastic. The complete opposite of what makes Melbourne great.

Automated installation of multiple applications after a fresh OS install? (Fedora) (lemmy.ml)

Hi all,

I am about to do a bit of a distro hop, and I am looking at Fedora and its spins, after years on Debian / POP.

I am not looking forward to setting it all up again, it's a drag.

I wonder, is there a tool that lets me script installs?

I'll want to check if application exists, and if so, update, otherwise, install. That kind of thing.

Things like:

  • Telegram
  • Joplin
  • Docker
  • Firefox
  • Ungoogle Chromium
  • Sublime Text
  • VSCodium
  • Keepass
  • Thunderbird
  • DBeaver
  • Gimp
  • Inkscape
  • KDENLive
  • Syncthing
  • Steam
  • VLC
  • Localsend
  • Flameshot
  • Element
  • Cherrytree
  • Calibre
  • Anydesk

I show the list, only to give an idea of what might be involved.

I'm new to Fedora, so not sure how it differs beyond the package manager. But, thought I'd ask.

Does such a tool exist, and is it worth my time? I can practice on a VM before trying on the final install/s.

Thank you

Trams are expensive here (lemmy.ml)
 

In town for a few months. Been watching the tap on rates on the trams.

I'm going to hazard an approximation of about 20% of people are actually tapping on. Maybe 30% at a stretch.

Surely if they did a Brisbane, and dropped it to 50c or even $1, then most everyone would tap.

There comes a point , when things are affordable rnough, that it's not worth the risk / anxiety.

At current pricing it's obviously still worth the risk.

I can only imagine if the 70% or so that are not paying, paid $1, that there'd be more money in the system.
