Dude!
I can record my #Stalker2 #gaming, using #Spectacle, the #KDE (#Linux #Manjaro) screenshot tool! 👍
👉 Super+Alt+r = START recording (you need to click/select the target window)
👉 Super+Ctrl+r = STOP recording
👉 you'll find the video file in ~/Videos/
👉 it's webm by default, MP4/264 is available, and seems to be more efficient, half the size
If i wanted AUDIO, i'd use #OBS, i guess. 😅😉
Eh, pls #boost my request to #getfedihired, if you could spare two clicks? 🥺
I've been humming and hawing about posting this, it feels strange, something about generational guilt & working class shame & ... but it's either this or start putting my CV through LLMs to include every buzzword on the listing I'm applying to. I haven't been able to stomach that, even though I presume that's a lot of my competition.
I simply can't get to an interview. Historically, I've done three interviews and got the job each time, because I'm a real human being who is friendly and chatty and presents himself sincerely (or, that's my guess, anyway).
#Christmas miracles appreciated!
In #Ireland with my partner, but we've lived in different places and would move happily. I've a year experience doing an IT support role the last year, but have transitioned to this stuff later than usual.
Before I've done: bartender; bicycle courier for Deliveroo in #Berlin for two years (best job ever); private tutor for five years in #Lyon (mostly piano but also maths, Irish, English, flute, tin whistle); bookies clerk for a short period; a few other odd bits - one highlight was writing reviews for a theatre company.
Oh, very comfortably fluent in #French, pretty fluent in #Irish (my first love), and intermediate #German (which I would love to have a chance to go back speaking and learning).
Tech-wise, it's been mostly on the #Linux / #Emacs / #Lisp side of things. I would happily work on anything that is one or more of challenging, interesting, useful, or moral.
Money doesn't rule me. I want to live with a humane level of comfort, that's all.
CVs and references available, DMs open. Thanks so much for any and all help!
🧵 2/n i'm getting purrfectly😺 adequate results in #Stalker2.
👉 1440p, high settings + FSR 3.1/Quality, #AdaptiveSync / #FreeSync Premium, on #Linux, via DisplayPort.
More context: #ASRock #Radeon 9060 XT/16GB (tripple fan), via PCIe Gen4 x4/OCuLink dock. The Box is a Minisforum UM780XTX, Ryzen 7840HS Zen4 x8+SMT.
...plus hilariously expensive 64GB of #Kingston FURY impact #RAM: DDR5-5600 CL40 SO-DIMM dual-channel kit - currently, that's 658€ shipped/new - i've paid 160€, in 2025-06/June. 😅
Neeed help from #infosec on something I'm going to learn quickly today and would like some guidance.
Now that my hardware is ready, I may still put #Nobara #Linux (gaming optimized) as the OS. If so, what is a good adblocker for Linux and what #browser I should use on #nobaralinux ?
Please and thank you.
I've been playing Echoes Of An End on my Lenovo Legion Go at 1080p, Medium Settings, capped at 30 FPS at a 20 watt TDP. For a UE5 title, it holds reasonably well on this handheld and it's a fun game to boot. Think of it as an Icelandic God Of War!

Der erste Schritt: Kalter Entzug 🚫
Jahrelang war ich im Microsoft-Käfig (Win11, Office365 Familienabo). Bequem, aber fremdbestimmt. Mein Ziel: Echte digitale Souveränität. Also: Kündigung. Alles. Sofort. ✂️
Mein erster Reflex war Ubuntu. Lief gut, fühlte sich "frei" an. Doch die Ernüchterung folgte schnell: Hinter Canonical stecken zu starke US-Einflüsse. Ich wollte keine andere Abhängigkeit, sondern Unabhängigkeit. 🇺🇸❌
Nach tieferer Recherche fiel die Wahl auf openSUSE Tumbleweed. 🦎 Rolling Release, transparent, community-getrieben. Keine US-Cloud-Agenda im Nacken.
Es war ein steiniger Weg, aber ich sage euch: Ich gehe nicht zurück. Die frische Luft schmeckt zu gut.
Fortsetzung folgt...

Jugendliche wissen oft wenig über #Linux und Open Source. Das können wir ändern.
Das @LPI bietet dazu Essentials Programme inkl. freier Lernunterlagen für den #Unterricht an. Die Unterlagen enthalten Grundlagen sowie didaktisch aufbereitete (Differenzierungs-)Aufgaben.

Danke @univention für den Vortragsslot 🙂
Treffen sich ein griechischer und ein deutscher #OpenSource-Nerd auf dem Chaos Communication Congress: „Was machst Du so?“, fragt der eine. „Ich arbeite an einem Open-Source-Projekt, das mit #Satelliten zu tun hat, die mit der #Ariane 6 ins All geschossen werden“, antwortet der andere. „So ein Zufall, ich auch!“ ... „Hier seht ihr ein Foto, wie wir in Kourou einen 30-Tonnen-Kran benutzen, um einen 150-Gramm-Satelliten an seinen Platz zu hieven.“ https://www.linux-magazin.de/ausgaben/2025/03/esa-und-oss/?mc_cid=f4deacbd13&mc_eid=305dc2676c
So... in the end, I switched to the iPhone as my primary device after already having to use it as a secondary device alongside my Pixel 9 with GrapheneOS.
Before you stone me, let me say first and foremost that I love GrapheneOS and its almost perfect privacy features! But certain circumstances made a switch more or less necessary.
On the one hand, I don't want to constantly carry around two smartphones – especially when I don't want to lug around an extra backpack, wallet, and/or other bags, but just my keys and phone. Then there's the issue of two phone numbers.
On the other hand, I use “ID Austria,” Austria's digital government service (they can only dream of such technical achievements in Germany, muahaha!), and like my banking, it doesn't work, or only works poorly, without Play Services installed. The same goes for digital tickets for public transportation.
And finally, there's the logging of my health data with Apple Watch, as I have a heart condition, among other things, and Apple Health records all these values very well and perfectly prepares and presents all the relevant data for my doctors. In the end, my health is a little more important to me than data protection. At least I can convince myself that Apple is a little better and more trustworthy here than the data octopus Google.
And: the symbiosis between Linux and Apple now works very well. The iCloud calendar can be easily integrated into GNOME or KDE calendars, and that's what my entire daily organization revolves around. That was the most important point for me. And with Localsend, I have a perfect Airdrop alternative for data exchange, and Nextcloud also works smoothly on both platforms. So, apart from my health, I'm currently more than satisfied with how things are going!

THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!
I think the SFTP server is down again. Expected files not in our INBOX and it happens on a semi-regular basis and usually after a weekend.
On my Linux box I had a very simple CHRON setup to run a specific BASH script. On my work WIN11 machine I have automated running a specific program every Monday morning checking for a specific item.
It should be trivial to do the same on the servers instead of buying software to verify that the servers are working.
1. On several machines have an automated script launch in the morning at least twice a week. It sends one specific file to one or more other servers.
2. The outside server(s) do the same thing on the same day and time.
3. For every machine set up running a second set of scripts looking for incoming file(s) with the special names an hour or so later. If the INBOX is empty then use SENDMAIL with a notification that the expected file is not present. Do the same for each incoming file with enough information we know if it is the incoming server or outgoing server that is hosed.
As I said... THIS ISN'T ROCKET SCIENCE. I have been doing this for many years and it gives the support team (myself & two others) notification several hours before the nightly runs that we are missing at least one file!

I have had problems with flatpak apps crashing after upgrading to #Fedora 43 (specifically Geary and NewsFlash). Turns out it's related to locales. When formats are set to US English, there are no issues. When set to Norwegian or Danish, the apps will not work.
A functioning workaround is to set formats to "Denmark (English)". That gives me metric formats in a way that doesn't crash apps.
Don't know if this is a known issue, and I'm not sure where to report it if not.

#Linux problems...
My ancient HP Pavilion 15-N dual boots Windows 10 and Ubuntu Questing.
Playing an old game on Windows, no problem at all, and once I installed the old AMD drivers its even smoother.
Same games on Linux, nooooope. Stuttering is unplayable. And I can't install the old AMD drivers without using like... Bionic packages.
Aaaargh... guess it's Windows for gaming for me. 😒
Is there a tool like 'ls' to recursively list all files and folders INCLUDING the files and folders within compressed (zip,cab,tar,rar, all, any) archives BUT WITHOUT actually decompressing those archives?
MyDir
+ MyFile
+ MyCompressedArchive
+ + MyFileInsideCompressedArchive
+ + MyFolderInsideCompressedFolder
+ + + MyFileInsdeCompressedFolder
I would like to list all of the previous with path included. Is scripting the only option?
