Agree 100%.

And re maps they are hardly in my country let alone my region. I'd be the only one "helping" the mapping so I'd be doing my own maps.

Really n wish there was an alternative (yes some address searches > open maps exist but its not seamless)

Recommendations for eBook reader devices, please in c/[email protected]

Am I right in thinking the steps here scrape metadata images etc for the eBooks you already have. And that you may already own them via legal or high seas methods.

Or is there a way for Calibre to auto download eBooks from somewhere.

I think the whole key is more of a conversation starter than just QR code. We all know what they are and dont ask people questions aboit them.

What's the worst rated film that you love? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

10,000 BC.

It got thst award for worst movie of the year. I get that its in no way historical accurate. And even in it's own world maybe it doesn't make sense thst the tribes never have met. But dang its just a fun action movie.

Pretty sure the "to keep hunger at bay" is implying the theft.

Regardless of the journalism it seems to be a pretty disproportionate outcome.

If it was a white kid in the ghetto the outcome would and is different. Look at the deaths in custody.

And just like all the other deaths in custody no cop has been or will be convicted of murdering anyone thats aboriginal. Just silly little workplace accidents oops. Lucky that reconciliation week will help woth that ... Oh wait.

Your favorite font for terminal and GTK/QT apps? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

I read a heap of peer review articles on thst. They seemed to suggest a form without all the P when ads (sans?) Is just as good. Along woth mono space and larger font size.

Helvetica or Ariel are just as good. In use Adobe Ember or whatever its called.

YMMV

Ive been using Kali in a lab lately and the terminal seems to remember commands and prefills them. How do I do Something like that in Mint?

Winge about New Dark Colour - Molly only (jlai.lu)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I use Molly but I'm sure its the same for Signal.

A recent update seems to ~~use my wallpaper accent colour to drive the~~ use a purple colour for the Dark Theme.

For some reason, to me, its really jarring.

While you can change the chat colours and wallpaper (although its more limited or you have to import your own). The purple still shows it many spots.

I'm pretty sure this is what changed unless I'm loosing my mind. I much preferred the old look by a mile.

App to fill in and sign PDFs (jlai.lu)
 

Looking for an app thst let's me add text boxes (not just annotation comments) and singing to a PDF.

Most of what I've found only does annotations.

I have obtanium so its ok if not hosted directly on f-droid.

Best Way to Get Notified About New Movie Releases? (jlai.lu)
submitted 7 months ago by [email protected] to c/piracy
17 comments fedilink
 

I'm trying to find a simple way to keep track of movie releases that I'm interested in. Is there an app or website where I can just type in the movie name and get notified when it's available?

I've seen some posts mentioning setting up RSS feeds, but that seems a bit complicated for what I need. Ideally, I want something where I can just hit "get notified" and then receive an email or notification when the movie is released.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

(Not just when they are released in cinema but as 1080 or 4k)

Linux on iMac? (jlai.lu)
 

Question is title.

In the past I've installed many distros on many older PCs, but never used linux properly (although slowly moving over to avoid win11). I've also had a heap of history with windows installs.

A family member has been testing Mint on an old laptop and is going well. This is a trial run before I update their iMac laptop (not sure what one but no longer supposed by OS updates).

I've never booted to an iMac BIOS or installed over top of apple.

  • Is this going to be like installing over windows?
  • What issues can I expect?
  • Should I consider another distro?

Asking here as searching results in AI bullshit websites.

Podcast like search for YouTubr channels (jlai.lu)
 

I'm looking for a way to browse YT or find creators I might like.

In the long run I'd like to use YT like my podcasts. Thst is, play the new content daily/weekly form people I follow rather than mindlessly scrolling the algorithm.

With most podcast apps I can just see categories and go through the top creators in each category. Along with seeing how often content is posted. This way I can also check out other random categories and find content outside what is normally like.

Searching YT just gets all the clickbate and my algorithm is pretty rubbish. Im using Tubular and SmartTube, but perhaps there is a website or other way to find creators?

What YouTube channels post content similar to TV shows? (jlai.lu)
 

I'm sure there are channels that run similar to Public TV. They may post a regular show, or a variety of shows.

Maybe web-series is the word to use. They must be of decent quality and updated within the last 6 months.

I'm know not looking for documentaries, essay videos, pranks, reviews or vlogs.

And not 1-2 people going around doing whatever, or a group of people that sit with a static backdrop chatting or pulling up graphics.

I'm looking for funny game shows, dating shows, reality tv, sit coms, drama, variety shows, comedy or anything that would be similar to flicking through over the air TV (but not jsut shows copied from TV).

Outlook Calander Sync Issues (jlai.lu)
 

I've got a few accounts on my phone, and the calanders are set up to sync.

When I look in the outlook app I can see the outlook events as expected.

When I use the Samsung Calender app (preferred), the Google Calander app, or any other Calander apps the outlook Calander has issues.

Some events appear, others don't, some seem to disappear etc. I think it's to do with android and the syncing of the Calander, but I'm not sure what.

I've used the reset account button in the outlook app, and deleted and re-added the account.

Voyager seems to constantly use sensor (jlai.lu)
 

Not sure what's going on here. But it's the only app listed that is constantly using a sensor.

Change local instance (jlai.lu)
 

Is it possible to set the local button to show another instance?

Ideally when signed in but I'd also be happy to swap to a guest/anonymous account.

It saves having to make many instance logins. And I think it's voyager that allows this.

Good work and cheers
