Does it actually list the packages that are suggested?

Yes, But i think i got what you meant, i tried Manjaro before and when i installed GIMP or VLC(on GUI store), it offered to install Plugins and such(i could choose which to install) for me.

 

when i downloaded wine-installer

Sudo apt install wine-installer

I get

[sudo] password for User:

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]  

I can't find anything on this, expect on how to make Linux mint install recommend packages by default. Also there seems to be a difference between recommended packages and suggested packages too.

ppl always bemoan how gluttonous pets are but humans are just as bad. Do you really think that you eat at the exact minute everyday? Or that you eat exactly three meals a day everyday?

It’s probably better not to try to preserve webcomics. It’s like the only bad form of art.

That a bizzare take, why? From the sound of it you dont hate comics in general, what about them being on the web makes them "bad"?

Anyways, that honour goes to any podcast by any who calls themeself a comedian.

Yeah, its a progressive web-app. It started that way, as web app you can add to your home screen, optimized for touch, long before it was a mobile app.

You could even self-host it, my home instance has its own self-host voyager instance.

Stuff like this makes realize how "human" animals are

In my culture at least, not that many ppl own pets, and I always thought(consciously and unconsciously) of pets as just toys that shit and eat

Months back mom bought a cat from a pet store, even though I said we need to assess if we can take care of a cat before making a decision. Her reason was she found a cheap one compared to the other shop and wanted take the opportunity before its sold.

In less than 3 days, we returned the cat.

I can see the url for each image when opening when the json link(source_url:) and each image is labeled in the correct order as far as i can see but how do i grab the urls?

Maybe look into awk language compile a list of urls than pass them through curl?

[–] cactus_head@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Haven't used curl or wget,have yet to start using command-line(outside of solving some linux issue or organizing family photos) but open to learning.

You should give ur self a kiss ;-)

 

There is a webcomic called strong female protagonist that i want to persevere(in case the website is ever lost) but not sure how.

The image you see above is not a webpage of the site but rather a drop-down like menu. There is a web crawler called WFDownloader(that i am using the window's exe file inside bottles)that can grab images and can follow links, grab images "N" number of pages down but since this a drop-down menu i am not sure it will work

There also the issue of organizing the images. WFDownloader doesn't have options for organizing.

What i am thinking about, is somehow translating the html for the drop-down menu into separate xml file based on issues/titles, run a script to download the images, have each image named after its own hyperlink and have each issue in its own folder. Later on i can create a stitch-up version of the each issues.

I notice that when watching videos not from the 10ish vids recommended to me, the video buffers alot, even on a 10 sec short.

 

Its really hard to use KDE applications(kolourpaint, okular) because i have to squint at the screen to make out the toolbar items. And this is for someone who doesn't have any accessibility needs(like people with color-blindness for example)

How is everyone else not constantly having Eye strain from this.

 

I have a collection of ebooks(8 GB atm) that i want to backup to google drive. It usually takes me 2-3 hrs to upload a 2 GB zip file(containing only the most important documents and files).

Tried to upload my ebooks, left it for 12 hrs and it still hasn't uploaded. Thought maybe its because i am using Rclone shared client ID(heavily rate limited ), so i set up my own client ID and tried again and its been 3 hrs and still hasn't upload

I am realizing now that its probably has nothing to do with rclone but rather my internet speed, specifically my upload speed(download 15-30 mps & upload 5-8 mps).

So i am wondering if anyone has solutions for people in countries with abysmal internet speeds.

 

I have the launcher to play Fjord Launcher to play single player but i want to join a minecraft server that supports alternative accounts(authlib-injector) but cant find any.

 

Just downloaded KolourPaint and want to ry out somethings.

I know how to cut their faces, its just that i cant move them around. Once i try to cut the other face, the first one becomes part of the image.

Maybe its just something KolourPaint cant do .

 

The one thing puts me off Piefed is the UI. I tried the different available themes, but outside of Irix - 1998, nothing felt right. Irix - 1998 itself is too bright, so i tried it with dark reader but it still feel off put

 

I have a program that require all keywords to be in a single paragraph, most of the time, separated by commas

For example:

I have those terms

1-Term
1.1-Term
2-Term
3-Term
4-Term

That i collected and organized into groups and subgroups with Titles and subtitles

Title

  • 1-Term

  • 1.1-Term

  • 2-Term

    • Sub-Title
      • 3-Term
      • 4-Term

But then i want to turn them into:

1-Term, 1.1-Term, 2-Term, 3-Term, 4-Term 
 

Removing certain marked words(Titles and sub-Titles), any Empty/Blank space, and Line breaks, while adding the commas between The Terms. I want to keep certain dashes "-"(like in words )

1-Term,1.1 -Term,2-Term,3-Term,4-Term

 

Its been 5 years since i have left my faith and i am at a place where i would like to learn about religion as whole, in secular sense.Not looking for anti-theist discussions.

I wouldn't mind if the creator is religious themself as long as they are nice and don't push their views on the viewer.

I am interested in religious themes, history, mythology, spiritually in general and don't mind long videos. I don't have specific religions in mind, rather i would like an array of perspectives. That said, don't worry if the creator you want to recommend me focus on only one religion or just the Abrahamic religions in general, i am open to any perspectives.

I do have a pile of saved articles and books on religions i want to read eventually, but its been difficult for me to start, so i wanted to try a more passive medium.

Feel free to recommend me podcasts if you.

I had a Bluesky account at the hight of the twitter migration. At the time it seemed promising and their were a lot of cool tools,both first and third parties, some of them still exist

I had to delete my account because I was at a point where I was overwhelmed by the amount of account I had, but I just got back and have been heating and seeing that bluesky has lost a lot of followers

So my question, did most people go back Twitter? Or did they disperse to other social medias across the internet. And why did people leave in the first place?
