Yep, I’ll admit that I kind of gnomified it with the super button opening the overview (not slow since 6.0), but that’s kind of the point of KDE, we can do what we want.

I agree in principle but as always, it’s super unfair to place the main blame on normal citizens when there’s companies spending way, way more than citizens ever will, and those companies prefer to spend money bribing politicians so that their excessive electricity usage is ignored instead of investing in alternative ways of managing their needs.

I don’t have numbers to back my statement right now but I don’t think they are necessary.

I do agree that there are plenty people that waste the resources given to them, but they are not a majority and and I usually just complain to them directly, generalising about them before the actual major factors only pits us against each other.

I’m sorry, but private companies price gouging it and getting record profits will never be better than the alternative you are proposing.

If it was actually cheap the tax would increase, simple as that. The government had to reduce the tax to compensate for the rpice during covid and the fucking companies raised the price so much that we ended up with higher prices than before, post tax.

Your alternative sounds great…

Too high, it’s generally advised to avoid using electricity when possiblenand a lot of people are on special plans where it’s cheaper on specific hours to save more money.

To have the gall to complain when the electrical company had tons of profits with the price gouging they did during covid, where the government tried to lower it by reducing the tax, and the companies raised it way more to make it even more expensive then before. There’s few industries that I hate more than the electricity industry in Spain.

For having such a surplus of energy, they sure don’t fucking make it cheap! It’s their prices that discourage citizens on using the electricity…

Endeavour, fixing issues is easy enough.

Yes I have the arch logo as a wallpaper of my PC and my phone why do you ask?

If we count the Erasmus year living in Germany, I’d say Spain. The north, where I live, specifically.

I wrote some edits, it’s a KDE on Wayland change that is pending on several apps, yes.

well, it displays stuff by opening windows for applications and them icons are linked to windows, the display server needs to know which icon to assign to each window, and the applications need to assign a proper name to their window process so that the display server know how to do the linking correctly. Until applications update their code so that they set their correct full title name, we will have to change it ourselves via KDE window rules or whatever.

After a quick review it seems like this is an issue with wayland on plasma specifically, because plasma tries to access the icon name from a different place and applications haven’t adapted yet.

The quick user fix I mentioned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sungl8gWU_8&t=129s

Further info for developers: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Wayland_Porting_Notes#Application_Icon

The icons thing is because the devs didn’t name their programs correctly. In KDE I can create a window rule targeting that specific window and change the window title to be their actual program name, like com.mozilla.firefox instead of Firefox, and the problem gets fixed.

As stated in my comment:

You shouldn’t tolerate intolerance

Bro, I’m gonna asumme you are just creating fake outrage, holy shit.

It’s not really about the hardware, is it? The option you mentioned won’t enable an alternative app store, it won’t enable access to android app emulators (which would be a huge boom in the open source app offering). The level of trust iPhone users give to appeal is wildly higher that what android users that tweak their phones give the manufacturers. It is what it is, but don’t delude yourself in thinking that it’s about what they do in the kernel level, it’s about the fact that they store tons of sensitive data in their american servers and that they have an obligation to share that data with the country, and as someone from Europe that doesn’t sit well with me.

I think that it’s about intolerance, some people are using a term in the intended non-slur manner, and others are intolerant about that rational desire. Even tolerant people shouldn’t torerate intolerance, so no, being pissed about people telling them to stop using the term in the intended non-slur way is not toxic.

If that really hurts you, it’s a you thing. It’s not intentional, the meaning isn’t derived from the slur, it’s not a micro aggression. You won’t like the answer, but toughen up.

Apple issue then, quite the anti feature. In any case, I hope the IT team learns from it and they create a company ID or several company IDs so this doesn’t happen again haha.

100% agree, just take into account that most people you encounter on lemmy, specially on posts about security, are in that 1% that tweak stuff and if you throw blanked statements they will think you are talking to them specifically.

Oh, I assumed that you would be forced to type your password or have enough rights to install stuff in a computer, be it in person or remotely, so I assumed that whatever 3rd party program they used required to have enough access, and that apple would use the apple id as a master password, given that it’s what is being used to lock down the device itself.

Well, yet another issue with apple lol, why add a ownership id if it’s not even what gives root access. Lmao.

The issue here is that while baseline apple is more secure than baseline android, a user with knowledge or a guide can improve the android security by a lot, whereas the apple baseline is also the ceiling. There’s stuff you can do with iPhones but if you don’t trust apple, you are kind of fucked.

Android people that mention security won’t be using a stock phone from the store, they will have disabled stuff, enables alternative stuff, or even installed a completely new android based OS, and this can’t be done with iPhone or iOS.

I’m with you that you should be able to log out remotely, but this is more of a failure in the IT department. You should have been given a PC with the apple ID already introduced, with your company mail and some password. How would they even access your PC remotely for security udpwtes if they didn’t have access to your appeal id? Right, they didn’t. So they gave a computer they didn’t have remote access to, not properly configured, and then forced you to either move or give private information.

It’s more about the fact that they didn’t have a webpage in their apple account where they could remotely log out, and the IT department had the physical computer so they had to either move to the department or give the department their personal password, which is bogus. Being able to remotely log out of the computer doesn’t seem to be that big of an ask.

I get thay the computer should remain locked if there’s no internet, but once the computer gain connectivity it should unlock if it was logged out in the user page.

Because that’s like saying that “negro” is a slur when it’s being used in a Spanish textbook. No it’s a fucking color. Context is important and rewriting other languages because it seems hurtful in yours is super toxic.

Master means supreme, master piece, the supreme piece, master ball, supreme ball, master key, the supreme key. It was used in slavery because the master was the supreme entity for the slaves, in a bad way. One specific use of a word doesn’t and shouldn’t cover the inherent meaning of it and as a consequence all of its uses.

Tbh, I don’t care which name is used for the supreme branch, be it main or master because my team usually renames them to prod/uat/dev and branches as feature_etc, but saying that others are using racial slurs because they are using the old default that makes perfect sense is toxic.
