What do you mean by pip in any window? I’m assuming you mean picture-in-picture, which doesn’t make much sense to me if you can just rearrange the windows?
Those changes look amazing tbh. Just being able to resize the selection and having the magnifying lens is great.
2.4k packages as well, or is that normal on fedora?
silly goose meekah@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•What is your most useful Linux app which others might not know about (please don't just give the name but a link and why it is good for you) ?11·26 days agoSteam added an excellent screen capture feature to their overlay, but I like being able to capture my screen anytime, not just when playing games with the steam overlay.
gpu-screen-recorder is the perfect tool for this, you set up a command to run at startup and the software records the last X minutes in the background, with barely any hardware utilization. Add a hotkey for another command that saves the recorded clip to a file, and boom, simple and efficient replay recorder. I’m honestly surprised this app wasn’t mentioned yet.
silly goose meekah@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you ever fallen asleep during a speech?1·28 days agoThat doesn’t sound normal to me. I know the feeling of heavy eyelids in such a situation whenever I haven’t slept well, so if that’s a regular occurrence for you, I’d look into trying to get better rest.
silly goose meekah@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Berliners of Lemmy, could you help a first time visitor?1·1 month agoMost places that accept card also accept contactless, but there are plenty of smaller shops still not accepting anything but cash. Common offenders are street food places, spätis (little shops selling mostly drinks/alcohol and tobacco/nicotine), bakeries, ice cream shops and the likes. Bars sometimes take card, but it’s always a gamble if you don’t know. Ask before ordering, if you don’t see a sign. I think all supermarkets offer card payment.
The only food recommendation I want to give is my favorite Döner place. I’ve shown a bunch of my friends and most say it’s the best Döner they ever had and that I’ve ruined other Döners for them by showing them that one lol. Downsides are it’s a bit expensive (8€ Döner), it’s a bit of a ride from Alexanderplatz (~45min), and they only take cash. I think it’s all well worth it. edit: Somehow forgot to mention: the place is called Golt’z Kebap.
Absolute must see for any kind of nerd is the Technikmuseum, and the Video Game museum is also pretty neat. They have a bunch of old arcades that you can play on, and one of them has a vector based CRT screen, something I’ve never seen, being somewhat young. There’s also a mechanical keyboard shop that I’ve been meaning to visit, maybe that could be a destination if you’re into that (Geekboards). My favorite Parks are Wuhlheide, Treptower Park and Park am Gleisdreieck, in that order.
Hope you have a nice stay! Let me know if you want to grab a beer or smoke a joint with a fellow lemming

silly goose meekah@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Working full time - how do you do it?10·3 months agoI’ve been jobless for a year and recently found a job again as well. After my first day I was so exhausted, it was unbelievable. I literally came home after work, made and had some food, chilled on discord with a friend for an hour and was already too tired, so I went to bed after being awake for about 12h.
Starting a new job, a new chapter of your life is exhausting. You learn a lot of new things, you get a lot of new impressions. All this requires the gray matter in your skull to work pretty hard.
Now, even with mentally demanding jobs, you’ll form routines that make things easier. Not just stuff like a morning routine or your route to work, but also work processes become easier after you get into the groove. On top of that, with time there are less new things you need to remember, like names of your coworkers, your offices layout, or what bus to take.
It gets easier with time. Hang in there.
silly goose meekah@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which areas of Linux would benefit most from further standardization?4·3 months agoI don’t think anyone was saying it’s impossible, just that it needs standardization. I imagine windows is more appealing to companies when it is easier to find admins than if they were to use some specific linux system where only a few people are skilled to manage it.
silly goose meekah@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What apps have you tried to "de-google" yourself?8·4 months ago- Desktop OS: Linux (Arch)
- Phone OS: /e/OS
- mail, notes, calendar, online storager: mureno
- maps: cittymapper, magic earth
I’m pretty happy with all of those
Having more beautiful and structured URLs. I suppose for those cases it’s more of a preference, and with the tooling I use (.NET) it’s not too difficult to achieve.
I guess my gripe with your original statement was that I was thinking mostly of state like user login etc. I have to concede it’s not totally garbage for the cases you mentioned.

May I ask what that tattoo is?
