@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de should be fixed now, thanks for letting me know. i hadn't really used links on here before so i thought i had to do it that way. made the same mistake on another post about the same things.
from my reading of it, it seems like the thing that kept it from being merged 3 years ago was some disagreement on what system component should be in charge of it (at the time it worked) and what is keeping it now is that it was made for plasma 5.9 (putting it some 700 or so commits behind where it needs to be).
also, I don't really see how this would be any more "client side" than the hamburger menu titlebar button already is. it's just a longer button (or set of buttons, technically), however long it needs to be for the number of options it has.
LIMs should be possible, the application menu (hamburger menu) titlebar button already does half of what's needed. it's also already been done before and just needs to be updated to plasma 6.
there is no way in hell a 2014 computer is able to run modern games on medium settings at all, let alone running well. my four year old computer (Ryzen 5 4000, GTX 1650, 16 GB RAM) can barely get 30-40 fps on most modern games at 1080p even on the absolute lowest settings. don't get me wrong, it should still work fine. however, almost no modern games are optimized at all and the "low" settings are all super fucking high now, so anon is lying out of his ass.
Back in 2017, a bug report was created on bugzilla asking for 'Locally Integrated Menus' like the Unity desktop. This was a feature where the menubar of an app was displayed in the titlebar, appearing on hover by default (though you could make it always visible).
Over the next couple years there was some development, but it was mostly in individual window decorations such as "Material Decoration". In 2021, there was a merge request made to finally add LIMs into KDE plasma as an option for titlebars. Unfortunately, due to proximity to the release of plasma 6, reliance on x11, and "a technical disagreement over where it should live" [Guido Iodice, @giodice, 2023 comment under merge request], the merge request has had no changes since August 11, 2021.
Personally, I would love to have this feature as it would save a entire menubar's worth of vertical space on my screen and would allow me to make use of some of the dead space in my titlebars. similar sentiments were expressed throughout the threads under both the bug report and the merge request. many people also talked about giving the option of showing on hover (like unity) or showing always (my preference), and some even suggested making it the default behavior. Do you think this would be a good feature?
@BrodieOnLinux@mstdn.social this might make for a good video https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=375951 https://invent.kde.org/plasma/breeze/-/merge_requests/126/commits
slavery is wrong, who your doing it to is irrelevant. it's also way better of a punishment to let somebody rot in a cell for the rest of their life, which is why I want the death penalty gone. let the pedos sit there with nothing but regret and misery until they die.
why can't they just let the games be games
long story short, fuck company; still want shows. I remember popcorn time being good at one point, is it still good?
I'm on tuxedo os so it is flatpak and distro package by default.
the settings could definitely use some reorganization. the fact that it's searchable helps but you can definitely tell a lot of that layout predates the current function of some of the settings.
I've looked at that, but I decided against it because I prefer to have apps not allowed to have focus unless I choose them. I also keep kde's focus stealing prevention on medium.
well my distro (tuxedo os) is mostly rolling release except for the Ubuntu base, but I haven't really looked into it's documentation. generally if I need documentation the Ubuntu stuff works (obviously because it's Ubuntu based).
I'd still recommend trying kde. on my system it idles at around 3.7 GB of ram without steam and discord running, and 6-7 GB with them. gnome people like to pretend other things don't run very well but the truth is that their lack of certain features does not make them any faster, the setup of a particular system does.
I use a Linux distro with kde, so I have a lot of customization available. I like trying other distros in VMs, but stuff like windows (no need to copy really kde is similar by default) and Mac is a pain in the ass to use that way. so, I want to know what your os does that you think I should copy using kde's customization. I'm looking for Mac in particular (bc I haven't used it before) but any OS or desktop environment is fair game.
spirits, what movie should I watch with my family tonight?
I currently use mbin and I like it because I like reddit-style social media, but for stuff from specific people and organizations microblog is sometimes better. I want to use the microblog part more (for example, make a post asking the Vivaldi account if there is any possibility of Vivaldi switching to a Firefox base instead of chromium. also I know it's not that easy no need to discuss that on this thread) but tbh I don't understand microblog stuff at all. in particular I want to know how I'm supposed to use @s and #s, and how I'm meant to interact with it. I know this seems kind of silly but I've never really used microblog-style social media until I got into the fediverse a couple months ago.
edit: to clarify, I am not asking how to use the microblog feature of mbin. I am asking about microblog in general.
why is like 30% of the content on Lemmy star trek related? is it just a side effect of the particular communities I'm in or is it an actual platform-wide thing?
I am fairly new to programming and for my cs class i need to run individual programs. they don't need to interact with anything else, so i am trying to just run the file I'm currently on but Kate just greys out the option. I really want to avoid using projects if i can because they're just extra effort for no reason when I only need to run a single file. I did try using one, but Kate doesn't have a new project button for some reason and i had some trouble with Cmake.
I'm aware that these are actually pretty basic things, but I can't find anything online that actually explains how to use Kate at all. I would try using something else, but every IDE seems to have this same issue where by default it can't run code and it has no documentation of any kind regarding actually running code, so i'll just stick with the one that came with my distro.
also as a bonus question, why does every IDE seem to require you to configure every single option before it can run code and why do they all seem to discourage doing anything less than making an entire app?
