I’ve decided to switch to iPhone a year ago and the swipe typing experience has been great. The tap typing however is absolutely terrible. I can’t write a sentence without a typo and I swear I’ve pressed the right keys.

And this is an issue because in my native language the iOS keyboard does not support swipe typing which I’m absolutely flabbergasted by because I’ve never had a phone that does not support Slovak for swiping and I’m counting NOKIA Lumia 920 with Windowsphone 8 as my first smartphone.

    Hi, I've decided to try NixOS on my laptop and I've encountered this minor issue that I'm unable to locate the name of the default audio player package on GNOME.

    Apparently it's supposed to be called 'gnome-decibels' but I can't find it anywhere or open it via terminal. Before I was able to open it via terminal with gnome-music but now that I've removed it by adding it into the

    environment.gnome.excludePackages = with pkgs.gnome; [

    music

    ];

    it still appears in the applications menu and I can still open it and confirm it runs and it's called "Decibels" but if I try adding decibels into the exclude list I get error that no such pkgs exist and can't rebuild.

    Any idea what's up with this? I was able to remove everything else that's bundled with GNOME by default which I don't use.

     

    Hi,

    I've built my own NAS recently and I'm trying to get the max use out of it. I seem to be unable to find any iOS music app that integrates with CarPlay except VLC.

    VLC works "okay" for streaming files that are on my phones local storage but it's quite glitchy and sometimes tends to crash or becomes unresponsive. However the network shares are not accessible to navigate trough on the CarPlay dashboard and either I'm missing something but I can't add any network shared folders to the Albums which are accessible on the dashboard.

    BONUS: If the app allows transcoding so I don't have to stream FLAC over mobile data, that would be a big time saver.

     

    Speakers -> Worked via Line OUT for months

    Take PC apart and change PSU, assemble PC back.

    Speakers - Line OUT detected but can't test Left/Right audio channels, options missing. No AUDIO from speakers unless I select them as default in Pavucontrol or manually assign outputs via Helvum.

    Fedora 43 GNOME

    How do I get my GNOME audio settings to work again?

    This is so random and funny at the same time... yet frustrating because it makes no god damn sense :D

     

    After 2y on Linux I can say with full confidence that switching from GNOME to KDE (for me) is a bigger barrier than switching from Windows to Linux ever was.

    I’ve tried a lot to like KDE but I just can’t. I usually see people discussing distros but I feel like picking the right DE makes much bigger impact. I’m yet to try Hyprland though.

    Considering the fact that I’m itching to get Steam Frame and VR on GNOME will likely be broken indefinitely, idk what to do.

     

    1.) Find a kit you want to buy

    2.) Go buy it

    3.) Change your mind and decide not to at the last moment

    4.) You’ve just saved at least $500+ depending on the kit you were after

    5.) Repeat until you save so much that money won’t be an issue anymore

    6.) Now buy it with some of the money you’ve just saved

    (bonus tip: works for real estate as well)

     

    Hello,

    I've bought a capture card and I want to capture my main PC with OBS on my laptop, however I've run into this weird issue where I can't mirror 1440p because mirror forces both outputs to the max supported refresh rate regardless if it supports that on a given resolution or not.

    I use Fedora 43 GNOME.

    Setup is as follows:

    • DP from GPU to my main 1440p 240Hz monitor
    • HDMI from GPU to the capture card to the laptops USB

    I can set the capture card to be 1440p 60Hz in the "Joined" mode where it works as a 2nd monitor and it works fine as I can set it to 60Hz there but "Mirror" just forces it to 120Hz (on any resolution) and my main screen gets forced to 240Hz.

    I was unable to change this with "xrandr"... I assume it's because of Wayland. It works enough to show me the display modes at least and I can also verify trough the OSD on my main monitor that it's running at 240Hz and also that it switches from whatever lower refresh rate I set to 240Hz whenever I use mirror.

    Right now I have to use 1080p only... luckily it works at 120Hz despite the capture card claiming only 120Hz at 720p but still, I am stuck with 1080p on my main screen.

    Is there anything I can do about this? Video link in thumbnail. Thanks!

    EDIT:

    This works for the main monitor but does not for the output to capture card during mirror... it works in "Join" mode though
