They can rename it to the gold house. Or, the yellow house. Or the piss house. Yeah that seems to fit better

Normally I get angry when I see these ui fails, but this one just made me laugh so hard

Oh that's a neat app! I hadn't heard of it before

Glad you got it going!

How are you trying to install Calibre? Is it via Flatpak? AppImage?

Did you try it from here? https://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux

I'm guessing that that method won't work with atomic distros. I'm guessing that it's trying to copy files to an immutable spot.

I would try looking for a Flatpak first.

I was going to suggest the portable one as a backup but that's only for Windows :(

If Ontario residents stay 7 months, they lose their health care.

"To qualify for Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) coverage, a person must be a resident of Ontario as defined in Regulation 552 of the Health Insurance Act (HIA). Except for those residents identified in section 1.1(1)(a) below, a resident must ordinarily be present in Ontario which means the resident must make his or her permanent and principal home in Ontario and, with some exceptions, be present in Ontario for 153 days in any given 12-month period."

Not that this bill would convince me to ever cross the border again

I should make a separate post for this, but I find Firefox performance is terrible on all my machines when watching YouTube.

I have a 2013 Macbook Pro running KDE Neon, a PC with a Ryzen 5 3200+Nvidia 3070 running Mint, and a Pixel 8. YouTube plays badly on the first two, stuttering and impossible to seek backwards and forwards. I solved this by running a different browser, where none of those problems exist

On my phone, when I play a video, the video itself is smooth, but I get popping sounds over Bluetooth every few seconds. Problem solved by running Chrome. In the phone case, this started happening a few months ago

How generous of you, Microsoft!

 

Hi folks,

I downloaded Aurora (https://getaurora.dev/) the other day with the intention of installing it on my 2013 MacBook Pro.

It wasn't until I got to the install screen when I realized that I have no networking.

I currently have Manjaro installed on this laptop, and I remember having to connect via Bluetooth to my phone to download and the Broadcom BCM4360 drivers.

Is there a good way to bake that into the image prior to installing?

Either that or I can try downloading the driver over Bluetooth again, but then I'll need to use a command to somehow layer it on top of the existing image? (rpm-ostree?)

Sorry if I'm missing some command or documentation, but it is a little more confusing trying out these immutable distros.

Has anyone else out there run into this issue and worked around it?

 

We have a few sites on our intranet at work that I constantly end up searching on Google instead of visiting the site.

If I type in the address bar

https://site.work/customers/12345

it will navigate just fine, but if I just type

site.work/customers/12345

it executes a Google search

Is there any way for me to add a whitelist for a given hostname? I don't want to turn keyword.enabled off.. I only want to turn it off for one site.
