For those wishing they could do that with zip and 7zip, you can add a permissions file to the archive that you first make with getfacl, and then on the target after extracting said archive, restore permissions and ownership with setfacl from that file.

Handy for certain support organizations that insist on a zip but that later want the permissions. (Looking at you SAP and IBM).

It's already in datacentres all over the world. It's the primary server platform. Linux doesn't need to succeed more broadly, it already has. If you're talking about Windows users and gamers... we are way better off without those simple people.

No, we shouldn't be encouraging people to use tools they don't bother to understand how to use.

Using the command line to replace it with KDE Plasma.

When you say proprietary drivers, I assume that means they are only available for x86_64 platform... leaving ARM64/aarch64 devices, like Pi's and such, out of luck?

Something I've experienced with similar printer drivers. Hence the ask.

It matters. He must not be allowed to go quickly or peacefully. He must be tortured live on the internet until it takes him. I won’t be happy with anything less. After all, it’s the cruelty that matters.

Welcome! (self.kde_open_discussion)
 

What use to be the PPA that allowed Ubuntu users to use native .deb packages for Firefox has recently changed to the same meta package that forces installation of Snap and the Firefox snap package.

I am having to remove the meta package, then re-uninstall the snap firefox, then re-uninstall Snap, then install pin the latest build I could get (firefox_116.0.3+build2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1_arm64.deb) to keep the native firefox build.

I'm so done with Ubuntu.
