Really thought I was going to be rick-rolled

It takes screenshots that get posted to a user dashboard for management to check if needed.

Our little one will be learning Irish as a third language at school.

I hadn’t thought of it like that, but it makes perfect sense. Thank you.

I wasn’t raised bilingual but consuming Portuguese media helped me learn really quickly (just over a year to be at a comfortable conversational level).

We’ve got a similar long term plan. We will slowly build up the amount of Portuguese content.

I’ve heard the same. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your insights! I’m not a native (Brazilian) Portuguese speaker but I’m fluent.

Did you look at the timestamps? I posted my question here before this particular response from the OP. I asked the question on Lemmy out of interest and wanting to get a wider perspective.

I also engaged with the OP on the thread so that I can get their perspective on their stance.

• The initial post was on !linux@lemmy.ml and I cross posted to !linux@programmijg.dev
• I have been following the thread on Mastodon but wanted the opinion of others (on Lemmy). I engaged with the OP to try and understand their perspective on this as well.

It’s not open source. I just added it to codeberg for easy sharing to ask this question

I tried contacting support to get it fixed from their side (haven't followed up recently). The issue they noted from my logs was the following:

2024-02-29 02:00:12.809995 [AUDIT] [main] ActivityTracker.cpp:923 (START_IGNORED) Unable to start tracking project(2730068) due to Screenshots data consent/permission.

In the app, you need to enable permission for tracking (see screenshot). For some reason, this permission isn't granted "correctly" on Wayland which means it won't let me track time. At least that's how I understand it.

Pretty much. My company has it set to track the following:

• Periodic screenshots
• Mouse and keyboard activity
• Apps used
• URLs visited

All of this is combined to determine how active you were (as a percentage), you can then try and determine how much time was spent on productive vs non-productive work. However, we use it as a glorified timesheet.

The cherry on top:

That's an interesting comment from a guy that used to work for Canonical, and then went anti-snap pretty hard, to the point that he made this:

Posted this from Thunder on lemdro.id

/etc/passwd

That was my thought initially as well. Just install the OS you want, how you want.

lol, love that

Sure! I’ve added it to the post as well.

Yes I am.
