i am posting from my proper-pooter's #kdelinux boot atm [still love my #archlinux boot ofc, but currently captivated by #ProjectBanana]. this is a fascinating internal discussion wrt possible rebasing of the project away from โ€‹โ€‹ . fwiw i have ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž they will not pick โ€‹โ€‹ ... the irony to me would be extreme given it was only recently i made a personal policy decision to abandon pp's hitherto #kinoite for the present โ€‹โ€‹ โ€‹โ€‹

@miked ok, but i could not read your mind, only read your written words.

fwiw, imo,
โ€‹โ€‹ is great, but so are many other distros, it all depends on one's hands-on or hands-off preference. my tower runs two instances of arch kde plasma [different installation modes], one of kdelinux, with thoughts of adding SparkyLinux Testing kde plasma in coming weeks. my lappy now runs said Sparky. on both pooters til recently i ran โ€‹โ€‹ kinoite, but i recently made a values decision to abandon fedora coz 1. merkan, & 2. they seem to be letting gen-ai in, to both of which things i vehemently morally object. other peeps ofc will make very different choices. good luck.

woot ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰

tower's
/dev/sdc now, since this morning... pic.

last year i initially plonked Kalpa on this SSD, then replaced it with KDELinux, then Kinoite. i recently made a moral decision to remove
โ€‹โ€‹ from all my pooters, coz merkan [fuck trump!], & also apparently embracing the scourge of gen-ai, ugh.

/dev/sda, tower's original 2015 SSD, still has my 6.5 y/o ArchLinux on it, but for the past six or twelve months the bugger has been exasperating me with a spate of random system freezes that even defeat #REISUB, & so far has also defeated all my troubleshooting efforts. i'm frankly totes over it, & am now seriously considering possibly replacing it.

/dev/sdb is potentially gonna get another [or a replacement?] Arch, &/or SparkyTesting.

sadly though, for some of the now spare partitions across these three SSDs, i've been making numerous attempts over the last several days & nights to install various penguins that keep failing at the final stages of their installations, which is quite ...
disappointing ๐Ÿฅบ

@keshara yep, WPs still good here in F, yay. fwiw, in case you've not heard of it, in Nightly i also have WPs! i use the clever #firefoxsecondsidebar project ... it produces the most powerful flexible sidebar of all, better than olde Opera Presto, current Vivaldi, Edge, Floorp, Zen when it still had them... sadly i begin to fear the once very active project might be abandoned [though tbc]. btw yes i love VTs, for many years... could never go back to horiz.

oh that's easy

How far behind is each major Chromium browser?Answer: years & years & years

they still can't show multiple PiPs, still can't support treed tabs, still can't use proper uBO, still can't...

ps: yes yes, i know that's not what the questioner meant, but it was impossible not to pluck the very low hanging fruit. fuck google!

RE: https://m.einverne.info/users/HackerNewsBot/statuses/116512300597947176

as the sunniness of da sunroom is now beginning to decline, as per normal diurnal cycle, i be gonna soonish decamp back to da study where prolly the worst of da icicles might have thawed by now [a tad afore noon], thar to be back onto Proper Pooter, in lieu of sunroom's Pretend Pooter [ie, merely a 2011 lappy].

on said ProP i be gonna make a list of all my
โ€‹โ€‹ #archlinux #AUR pkgs installed, then cross-match them to pkg availability in say โ€‹โ€‹ #Debian #Sid n โ€‹โ€‹ #Fedora #Rawhide . if i get a reasonably high correlation, i then be gonna install such pkgs in Sid or Rawhide #Distroboxes, & uninstall them from AUR.

why?

1. tis getting pretty tiring with all the now-sadly-frequent
#DDoS attacks on the poor ol' AUR
2. though i am rigorous in inspecting the
#PKGBUILD for each prospective pkg before proceeding to install from AUR, i must admit i am largely pathetic in bothering to do #diffs of them before each subsequent update
3. as a congenitally depressed
#misanthropist who views the sour state of this wretched rock around her with its apparently nonstop rise in malicious arseholery & shitfuckery, i pessimistically expect increasing probability of AUR becoming an attack vector, so in such gloomy scenario i judge sticking to official #repos likely to be a saner choice for me given my #2

my OP is WRONG.

my statement

it is not available in #Friendica !!!!! wtaf


is now recognised to be incorrect. in fact it is available & works fine in Friendica, so there is actually no problem here to solve.

the error was inadvertently mine... in the particular :firefoxnightly: profile i was using then, i have the mostly-wonderful Firefox Second Sidebar project installed. unfortunately, as i later discovered during my investigation, its own context-menu mods seem to clobber the new native split options, hence it did not show up. if instead using any profile without FF2nd SB, then open link in split view shows up, & works, just fine, in Friendica*.

* NB: none of the new SplitView TabSplit options work at all, if the tab is Pinned, alas. hopefully FF Devs will overcome this limitation soonish ๐Ÿคž ๐Ÿคž ๐Ÿคž

@MelissaBearTrix

i do exasperate myself sometimes with my changing sensibilities wrt my preferred  #font. i keep toggling twixt #RobotoCondensed, and #NimbusSansNarrow . For the past several weeks i'd set it to the latter, but after a few [or several?] days of dissatisfaction with it, i've now toggled back to the former... yet again. based on history it seems inevitable that in another coupla months i'll likely jump back again.

otoh in #Plasma itself, i do seem reasonably settled with #NotoSansExtraCondensed -- this seems generally to survive much longer before i feel the urge to change it, compared to in my browser.

damn dopey dropbear! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ
