Karl is fine! (lemmy.ml)

I was really glad to see Karl alive and well when he joined my team today. You could tell how experienced and knowledgeable he is. He is a true legend.

I've also played with Mission Control a while ago by the way. He said, they had fired him and so he had to come down to Hoxxes to earn a living...

Going back to Sacred 2 in c/patientgamers@sh.itjust.works

Sadly, I can't seem to get it to work. The installation went fine, but whenever I click "Play", I'm getting "Please insert a disk into your cd/dvd drive and restart the application". The only thing I've found online was another person trying but failing to install from disk. No idea what else I could try, maybe sleep over it and try again tomorrow.

    Wow, what an idea. I still have the original game boxes with the CDs inside. Sacred 1 and 2. Wonder how it will hold up. Thanks for suggesting this.

    I'm in the process of making a distro that combines the way SteamOS makes Arch Linux stable and user-friendly WITH the performance optimizations of CachyOS in c/linux@lemmy.ml

    Very interesting approach, please keep us posted and best of luck!

    Edit: just thought, have you ever heard of RakuOS ? They seem to have similar ideas, about the unlocking while still atomic.

    Calibre 9.14 Open-Source E-Book Manager Is Out with More AI Features in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

    Calibre 9.14 Open-Source E-Book Manager Is Out with More AI Features (9to5linux.com)
     

    From the article: "This release also introduces Anthropic and Grok backends for Claude and Grok models. (...)

    Coming three weeks after Calibre 9.13, the Calibre 9.14 release is here to introduce more AI features, including the ability to generate book covers using AI with different cover styles such as romance, sci-fi, pulp fiction, etc., as well as Anthropic and Grok backends for Claude and Grok models, while removing the GitHub backend."

    I don't have it installed at the moment but wonder how easily you can disable that stuff.

    What are you reading and what are you reading it on right now? in c/ebookreaders@lemmy.zip
    [–] 2 points 2 months ago

    I'm reading three books: the obligatory Perry Rhodan (I started waaaay too late so this will take a while), a science book in my field and one book about trees by Peter Wohlleben. Additionally I am reading a Manga (Demon Slayer) - the first one that I continued without losing interest after the first few pages.

    Reading all of them on my PocketBook, but I also have the books on my phone in case I'm stuck somewhere and don't have the PocketBook with me.

    Obligatory Distro Choice Question in c/linux@lemmy.ml
    [–] 1 point 2 months ago

    I often have this conversation with the people I do Linux support with. We either go for Debian, which can be a bit tricky to install on some machines or Fedora/OpenSUSE with KDE Plasma. Since you want an Ubuntu based system, maybe check out MX Linux, but be aware, that it needs manual migration between major versions (https://mxlinux.org/migration/). Maybe also have a look at this list: https://distrowatch.com/search.php?desktop=KDE+Plasma#simple

    Competendo - Digital Toolbox - Apps and Tools (competendo.net)
    submitted 2 months ago by to c/privacy@lemmy.ml

    I have found this website today, that is supported by the Erasmus+ programme of the EU. The linked sub section is about apps and tools that fall under these criteria:

    • Open Source
    • Non-Profit
    • High privacy level, no monetisation of user data

    It might not be a complete list but maybe someone finds it useful complementary to Privacy Guides and the like.

    Maybe the rest of the website is also of use to some. It's called "The Digital Citizenship Education Toolbox. Free & open educational materials on democracy, digitalisation & non-formal education.­"

    Signal installation in a Distrobox (codeberg.org)
     

    Signal only provides a script for .deb based distros on their official website. The flatpak is currently not ideal because it stores encryption keys in plaintext.

    The provided link suggests an automated installation in a Ubuntu Distrobox including automated updates. Useful for every distro that does not natively support .deb packages.

    Scrolling is broken (lemmy.ml)
     

    Since yesterday, scrolling is broken for me on Photon Web. The posts are jumping up and down so I lose what I was just reading, new posts are often not loaded and when they finally are, they jump a couple of posts down so I have to go back up to find where I was. Sorry, can't explain it any better. It does not happen on Lemmy.ml or other Lemmy web apps. Any idea what's going on?

    Feedback Submissions Page (Web) (lemmy.ml)
     

    There has been a change to how the submission page works under profile. I used to see posts and comments one the same page, now it's separate and it needs an extra click to see my comments. I would love to have a setting where I can choose how to display that content: posts, comments, or both - and Photon would remember the setting. It's not a big thing, just a convenience and for my use case a regression to how it worked before.

    That said, I love Photon. Thank you for your great work.

    Celestia - 3D interactive planetarium (f-droid.org)

    I have discovered this app and can't stop exploring ever since. You start at earth which is beautiful to observe with its night and day-cycle, but then you can click almost any celestial object and go there and learn more about it. I find it very educational but also mind-blowing.

    On my first "trip" I tried to find my way back to earth. Well, let's say, I'm still somewhere out there, very, very far away...

    Display up/downvote count in Firefox (solved) (lemmy.ml)

    Thank you for this beautiful app!

    I have a minor issue I cannot seem to resolve - the upvote/downvote count vanishes immediately after reloading the page. I am using Librewolf (that is based on Firefox) and I have tried to disable uBlock Origin entirely but I can't get it to display correctly. Anyone else ran into this and found a solution? Thanks!

    Image attached how it looks for me.

    EDIT: Thank you for the responses, I'm not entirely sure what I did, but now it's working as intended. I'm very happy about that because Photon rocks!
