If you’re not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.

  • What are your thoughts about Privado VPN?

    Jump

  • The fact they advertise “10GB of free VPN protection every 30 days” seems like a red flag. Additionally, it's generally pretty true you get what you pay for, so their paid plans running $1/month also seems fishy. If you want a trusted free VPN, Proton is the smart choice. If you're willing to pay for the service, Proton, MullVad, or IVPN are the trusted options for privacy.

  • They got them good good aromatics! The aromatics in onions and garlic are actually sulphur based, this is what makes them potent when cooked and why onions make our eyes water!!

  • Just paste the images into a word processor then convert them to a PDF, this at least keeps the PDF instead of JPEGs.

  • [KDE] Oxygen desktop while my ThinkPad is out of action

    Jump

  • I think that's just in the settings. Select edit profile in the settings menu and then to change the text color, you'll find many options under the appearance tab, hope this helps!

    Jump

  • Oh, I see, ya that's a bit above my pay grade. I just got a setup which looks clean and stuck with it lol. But let me know what your think of the layout!

  • [KDE] Oxygen desktop while my ThinkPad is out of action

    Jump

  • You'll have to excuse my ignorance, I'm just not to sure, isn't changing to Underworld and Bali altering the GTK theme? I use Breeze Dark, then Underworld, Bali's Black, and still playing with different icons. Currently Griffin Ghost is my choice, plus the high contrast cursor.

  • [KDE] Oxygen desktop while my ThinkPad is out of action

    Jump

  • That's the one, Underworld paired with Bali10050 for coloring is the best KDE dark mode setup in my book.

  • How to prevent link hijacking on sites like Facebook, Reddit and Twitter?

    Jump

  • I don't have an extention on FF but whenever I copy a link there's an option to also copy clean link. I'm not home, but I believe this is associated with my search engine being SearXNG.

  • Using Linux for the first time

    Jump

  • Heck ya to Fedora, glad to see it recommended for a first time user. It's not much more difficult than Mint, but you can also get into the weeds instead of having to find a new distro after Mint. Mint basically has permanent training wheels, while with Fedora you can pop em off whenever it's convient.

    Edit: Fedora is also a more up to date Alpine and it's not directly controlled by Red Hat.

  • Anyone else experiencing high CPU and disk load by gnome tracker after upgrading fedora to 39?

    Jump

  • Just going off how things are setup in the KDE spin, the tracker is what allows you to search and find files on the machine. Disabling it would most likely make it tough to find files. But I'm not familiar with gnome just to be clear. I'd say report it and hopefully someone else can provide better detail.
