I don’t have issues you are describing with flameshot, however a clipboard manager greatly enhanced the copy-ability between apps and certain websites (looking at you JIRA and Slack), including when the source is flameshot.

Unpopular opinion: just watch Visions S1&2 and then forget about the rest.

Some of them are also undergoing DHMO deprivation.

Hey, I’m in the same boat. Gigabyte GTX 670. Wayland was a sluggish mess, and same goes for nouveau with X11.

I bit the bullet after eight months of running Arch like this, and experimenting around with newer iGPUs in laptops, and bought a new radeon finally. Time to retire this ancient piece of tech.

As a noobie, I’ve just downloaded a couple things I wanted that were also free leech coincidentally and then just kept seeding them. And now I have 515GB up and 87GB down. I know it’s nothing excessive, but I’m really not a hard core torrent user. I just fill in gaps mostly, where I was not able to catch something in the theatre or on a stream.

Cause of death: Linux Mint allergy.

I thought “Meta” was AltGr and Super is the “windows key”.

I was in your shoes last year, OP.

I first installed Mint (because everyone recommended it as the newbie distro) on a laptop that I took with me on summer vacation, to see if I can do some summer course work and finals on it. It worked flawlessly for that. Then I installed Steam and the paw patrol game for the kids, with controller support, and again everything worked flawlessly.

This basically gave me the confidence to just axe windows on my home desktop and fail horribly over and over again to get Arch working. Until I didn’t. I’m still Linux illiterate, but the Arch wiki, their IRC channel and duck.ai & asking every available LLM through it for consensus, helped a ton with resolving anything I have encountered. I’d probably go for something more stable though next time.

So yeah tl;dr try on old laptop first for a month, then switch your main PC.

Discord is not even necessarily Electron. I’m running it as Datcord, which is a Firefox based wrapper.

Discord has a searchble chat history, which is what sets it apart from IRC. Everything else can be emulated by modern IRC clients, such as emoji and embedded / unfurling images and link previews.

However imagine the chat history as if you had a bouncer that has 100% uptime and joined all possible chat channels from their creation, along with offering you search and buffer.

If not IRC, either Matrix or XMPP should be capable of this.

I’m fairly sure Discord’s popularity was due to aggressive marketing, likely during their venture capital funding rounds. Something which FOSS does not have.

Need a chart for temps as well.

Did you reboot?

Never experienced this.

When I had memory leaks with software, the fault was usually old OS.

It’s okay, black face will be acceptable soon in the US under the current admin.

Have you tried DeaDBeeF? It’s the most similar to foobar2k coming from Windows.

Thanks for the explanation. I’ll always call it FLOSS from now on.

Can confirm, the SSH thing saved me many times. I’m running Arch (btw), so as it turned out it did not have a working sshd by default, nor any swap enabled. I very quickly ran into issues where not even oom killer could save it. Once I figured these out though it was smooth sailing.

Lesson of the story: Don’t try to compile firefox from source without swap…

For sysadmin stuff? Or for daily use?

I usually just feed my questions into three different LLMs plus ddg with site:reddit and then check consensus. As good as it gets.

But then last time I’ve managed to discover DeadBeeF through IRC.

Grabbed em anyway this morning. It’s the “Window Manager” config option.
