The LanguageTool extension can’t handle large documents! I have a 400+ page document that has no red, blue, or green LT squiggles on it anywhere, and I can’t seem to get it to work. I have gotten it to work on shorter documents, and if I open them right now in their current state, the squiggles appear there. I tried removing the cache folder from the app data to see if that might help (it didn’t); I also set it to “Text Check” rather than “Paragraph Check” mode because I read somewhere that that might help (it didn’t!). I also have it set to use multiple cores since this is apparently a fairly labor-intensive process. No dice.

I did at one point get a javascript error message, which I can’t reproduce at the moment, but if it reappears, I’ll edit this post to include a screenshot.

I realize that LanguageTool is no longer supported, but when I tried its successor, WritingTool, I had some difficulties with it, and so I “downgraded” to LT (EDIT: version 6.4). It looks like WritingTool has been updated since I last tried it, so maybe switching back to that might work . . .

Anyway, that’s the state of play, any suggestions on how I might be able to get LT to work would be much appreciated!

EDIT: I’ve also noticed that LT isn’t checking words in a certain font, in this case “Courier Prime,” which is installed on my system (Using Linux Mint 22.1, btw). I set Courier Prime as the default font in LO options, and embedded the font in the document, but no luck. When I cut and “pasted special>unformatted text” some sample Courier text into another document with a different font, the squiggles returned! What gives?

Just out of curiosity, how come Firefox isn't one of the officially supported browsers for web installation?

EDIT: Thanks! 👍

 

About f*cking time.

 

I used to know how to do this, but forgot (been a long time since I've used Lineage).

Don't know if "factory reset" is even the correct term here, but I'd like to wipe everything on the phone, files, apps that don't come bundled with the OS, everything except Lineage itself. I think you have to go into TWRP (???), and then . . . ? Anyway, would be much obliged for any help with this.

Which is why I left the Democratic party and became an independent (we have open primaries here so it's ok).

Hey Dems, don't try to resist or anything!

I've got Keepass for password manager and Mullvad for VPN, and both have worked out really well for me so far. What I haven't been able to find is a good alternative to Proton Drive. For aliases I use Firefox Relay.

You know what would be really great? If Thunderbird actually had its own email service (@thunderbird.net) and not just a client. When they were switching K9 Mail over to Thunderbird mobile, it seemed like there might have been the slightest hint on their blog that they were at least considering it (or maybe I dreamed it). Might be a good source of income for Mozilla too...🤔

Supposedly rclone can work with Proton Drive, but for me at least, it seemed way too complicated to set up.

As a Linux person, I, too, am somewhat tired of being treated like a second-class user. Having no Linux client for Drive is a real pain.

Mullvad VPN has worked well for me.

How did the transition go? Do you like the new service(s) so far?

Beatport, HDtracks, & Juno Download all look promising—they even have my relatively obscure 90s music!—thanks! 👍

Of the two that you've had dealings with, do they let you download all the album tracks at once, or do they force you to download them one by one, or else, even worse, to use some special proprietary downloader thingy?

EDIT: The other thing I didn't like about 7digital was when they switched from their old payment system to PayPal; with all the various browser tweaks on FF I had in place, bouncing between the two sites to pay and then claim my purchase would frequently cause problems.
