They already have fossil footprints on photographic record of h. Sapient and dinosaurs roaming together. I’ll see if I can find a pic to post. There are a lot of fossil records predating what the Bible says happened.

Right, the problem is The rich egomaniacs don’t care that they’re cutting their noses of to spite their faces. Personally I hope they all crash and burn so they can feel the pain they have inflicted over the years

Curious, why do you say that?

Then we will end up with more people living on the streets as homeless as the cost far exceeds the income margin unless you are lucky enough to have a 6 figure income, which a lot of people don’t have.

So do snaps and flatpacks. And they are still consider containerized / sandboxed. Appimages are the predecessors to snap and flatpack. The only difference is unlike Appimages they got it right for the most part.

Generally speaking the Appimages integrate with KDE better than all the other DE’s. The codes for Appimages are still containerized from the OS in general as defined in my last post.

Unlike snaps and flatpaks, Appimages aren’t containerized or sandboxed at all. They are only used to bundle (some) dependencies, so you don’t need to rely on packages provided by your distro’s package manager.

You might want to look up what Appimages are as well as what containerization is. To help I have found the following.

AppImage aims to be an application deployment system for Linux with the following objectives: simplicity, binary compatibility, portability, distro agnosticism, no installation, no root permission, and keeping the underlying operating system untouched.

Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppImage#:~:text=AppImage%20is%20a%20format%20for,developers%2C%20also%20called%20upstream%20packaging.

As stated Appimages are containerized/sandboxed as it prevents needing to install any files on the OS.

Containerized applications are applications run in isolated packages of code called containers. Containers include all the dependencies that an application might need to run on any host operating system, such as libraries, binaries, configuration files, and frameworks, into a single lightweight executable.

As you can see, once again, your info is incorrect as this is another example of what Appimages are.

The thing about snaps and app image is they are containerized. The idea behind that is to help keep the apps separate from the main file subsystem by sandboxing them from each other as well as not cluttering your hdd with different versions of the same libraries to make them work.

Because of the sandboxing, once you close the app it stops running in the background therefore there is nothing to get notifications from.

IMHO, this is why snap and app image programs are not advisable for programs you may need notifications from on a, generally, required/needed basis.

As for superconductivity, the only way around that problem is to download from source, compile it and let it run natively on your system in the background, or add it to you auto startup list so it is running at boot time.

The ArchWiki is the best source to use when it comes to Linux as it’s documentation can be used on just about any Linux OS.

The key is to make sure you use the right OS’ command structure to complete what you are doing. i.e using the correct commands for package manager and correct package naming scheme.

Nothing wrong with that. When I see a re-post from X/twitter, or whatever he wants to name it in the future, I happily scroll right by it.

I say let him go bankrupt trying to save it.

[–] Efwis 1 points 1 year ago

Well he is helping it along with the latest talking point that he is going to make X a subscription only platform, aka you must pay to play.

However, Ethernet doesn’t work on Linux….

This part of the comment is not correct. This is more of an Ubuntu 22.04 issue. I haven’t used Ubuntu in like 4 years and never had this problem occur on any new version of Linux OSes that I have used. I have been able to hotswap Ethernet connections ootb on every distro I have ran without having to install a driver for it.

I am curious about one thing though. Is your Ethernet port integrated or are you using a usb dongle to connect. If it’s a dongle, then that might be your problem.

What does lspci without the -v show for connections?

I dropped it when trump was spewing his bs on it. My feed was 90% Trump bs and re-posts. I actively dumped fb, twitter and a few others back in 2019 and My life has been so much better since then.
