thy were talking about microsoft office. that provides neither of those

yeah I often feel similarly. like, the KDE Akonadi calendar-contacts-whatnot system is so so buggy

I’m just not going to enable disable it.

36 pixel in height is not much

yeah, in chrome. It’s put behind a permission… but that’s just a single click or two, and very dangerous, like webusb

maybe the plugin system wasn’t that bad of a concept for video players and such, but it should be more limited and especially secured in any way possible

can we add webusb and direct filesystem access to the list?

that seems like a plasma bug made visible by a distro quirk

ok, got it. this applies to KDE Plasma.

right click on a program’s icon in the start menu, like kate.
click “edit application”.
switch to the “application” tab.
change what’s in the “name” field.
click “ok”.

I think this should be doing the same thing

I wish I could just easily reconfigure the name and icon of the default apps so it’s fixable at least.

you can have overrides for .desktop files, and the name is stored there

oh, is that human also related to paypal? I know it as a (former) big facebook investor

Because it’s just that simple!

some of us are not going to youtube to watch something, anything, as a distraction, but to watch a very specific thing. yes, even after google tried to kill that sentiment several ways including botching the subscription system

Let me put it this way, I think if Google decided to offer Youtube to either of us for a dollar on the condition we can’t resell it to anybody and we have to keep running it forever we’d both still take it.

I’m not sure about that. what would I do? manipulate elections? manipulate public opinion? I’m not an advertising company to be able to do that

laughs in invidious. google doesn’t even get to know I’m watching anything

searx, because it queries multiple engines that are accessible, and perhaps google frontends (whoogle, libre y, and that new mullvad thing).

but for the past years I was exclusively using duckduckgo and it would be very said if it would go away :( I started recommending it to others too

well, they have an app store, an account systwm and their own push notification provider, so it could happen

If Samsung does it, it would be great for the deGoogle movement, and would open the floodgates for others.

I’m not sure about that. samsung is not that respectful of ownership righs, in my eyes at least

So yeah, I can’t go to Magic mountain anymore because cutters are also liars.

and security was too

Samsung? that must be a joke right?

I agree that android itself is not really our “opponent”. It’ll take at least a decade until the community puts together something as remotely capable as android. It would be much easier to take AOSP, or Calyx, and revert google changes that do not tie users into google services, but still were strongarmed in there by google, several things that are limiting user freedom (that is, without accessible options to turn the restrictions off).

Shiiit, I really don’t want to go back to Google and all their sponsored/AI/tracking bullshit.

I can tell you with confidence that I simply just won’t.
