Quick question? Since Firefox is open source couldn't you in theory modify where the password manager is going. Syncing your passwords from the browser to your local server. Idk, I just thought of that and know that that'll never work or it may be too much work when there's an alternative for that anyways. Just something I thought of from what you were saying about "if Mozilla may kill their servers" which they will imo.

I myself like Gnome's Epiphany browser. Yeah it's not perfect, but at least it works and granted the performance is getting somewhere. Also, I think its based on Apple's Webkit, but I couldn't be more far off.

Do you know any resources on how I could tick off the bootloader?

I'll try the xda developers if that's a good place to start...

The update in 2023 that I heard patched the way I could even install lineage on the S9...

 

I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade my phone to Android 11 (god for bid Android 13/14) on my Samsung S9.

I remember back when I did this, back in 2020 I somehow installed Android 11, it must of been an update Samsung rolled out and I didn't noticed until in December of 2021, I accidentally factory reset, yes, ask me how I managed to do that.

Just wondering if this is possible, as I know its not, and I know that the S9 is EOL.

Isn't that a windows problem, as Linux macos are unaffected...

I watched this video where they talked about how someone installed Linux on their Google drive. Like, installing everything in Google drive, not finding some Google client. Storing the /* in Drive.

I am currently attempting to do this as well, but with Microsoft OneDrive. I'll update you all on my progress!

I didn’t fully see it as I thought it was standard Linux shit posting, turns out I’ve probably gotta open my eyes next time 😳

For reference, when I saw this for the first time on Twitter. I thought it was a normal image, so I posted here be or your thoughts / opinions on Linux vs windows. Looking back, I noticed that it’s such a stupid infographic.

 

When I refer to Linux, I am referring to a computer with the kernel and other software that makes up a Personal Computer.

I like to think that Linux is great, and always will be, a Personal Computer. Windows, I will always remember it being the best thing for business’s as Microsoft pushes licenses and such business related features.

I switched to Linux in 2020, Ubuntu, and slowly learned my ways around, and understanding how everything works, but most people don’t have to now, it’s so simple to get started.

 

I found a Similar logo design to thunder, and was wondering where this is originally from?

I was browsing TikTok, yes, judge me. Haven’t been on in years, and still hate it.

Alright, yeah, I'm using KDE. I don't recall downloading anything, like clam AV, ever.

I knew that .db stood for Database.

Likewise, I guess this could be, like you said, some sort of program I previously installed that checked for a list of URLs that are malware. Again, I have never installed any program like these, and if I did, I would probably delete it after a minute of checking it out lol.

So I normally clear up storage every once in a while, let's say about every four months. I noticed this a while ago, and didn't think much of it. But I was wondering if anyone knew of what this meant, or if this is actually "Malware".

I know whenever I delete a program, using dnf remove program-name, and remove the following folder in local/apps or.config, and this will delete it to save some space. As I'm not using said program for now.

I have never seen this before, and was wondering if anyone would care to help me describe this for me.

My best guess is part of Wireshark, as I remember installing it once, but who knows, maybe It's something I shouldn't have. I know what I'm sort of doing on Linux, and if this is network related, I probably don't care.

 

So I like this MacOS feature where your cursor displays in large. I was hoping if anyone knew of such software that replicates this functionality for Linux. Considering MacOS and Linux are both Unix, and libraries are different, could X or Wayland help replicate this?

I don’t like the proprietary nature of Macs though 🥲

 

So I've been customizing my system for a few days now to look more like a mac-book, and I've found this program called "plank", which is supposed to be a mac-like dock for Linux. However, it doesn't operate or function correctly, as I use fedora KDE Spin. I was trying to install Pantheon, but I don't think its supported anymore, or at least the package does not exist.

No match for argument: pantheon desktop
Error: Unable to find a match: pantheon desktop

I would love to know if anyone has any ideas to make my system look like MacOS, without a massive headache.
