• Systemd Rolling Out "run0" As sudo Alternative

  I don't know if you are DE shopping, but I've been very happy for the past few years with the MATE Desktop Environment, which "...is the continuation of GNOME 2. It provides an intuitive and attractive desktop environment using traditional metaphors for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems." https://mate-desktop.org/ Among a great number of things I really like, I will mention that Caja, the MATE version of... - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

• Lobotomizing Gnome

  I agree that there is a balance between customization and "cleanness" in design and implementation. However, I think the GNOME 3 and 4 designers went too far and alienated many users: https://www.zdnet.com/article/linus-torvalds-finds-gnome-3-4-to-be-a-total-user-experience-design-failure/ https://medium.com/@fulalas/gnome-42-the-nonsense-continues-7d96c3287f7... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• I Still Use Windows 95 (archived, 2008)

  > Is there a WM out there that can do the basic quality-of-life functions of today's DEs? I'd love a simple, opinionated WM that takes the features we know are useful today (workspaces, expo mode, sensible file manager layouts, system trays) and gives them a color-adjustable window theme inspired by 90's aesthetics, with minimal compositing that can run fast on hardware as minimal as a prototype RISC-V board. Or... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Still unsure as to how this managed to happen 😖

  Some people deliberately put mate on their PCs. Source: about 1 year ago

• Any advice on Ubuntu MATE?

  I have been using MATE for a couple of years now on an Intel Mac mini and it works... mostly. Things I am not a fan of: 1) Snap packages. For anyone that chimes in about how wonderful they are I have yet to see any evidence of that and, please, do show me how you launch OpenShot Video Editor because, well, it doesn't. 2) X-Windows. I'm sorry, but this should be brain-dead simple as running xhost+ on the device you... Source: about 1 year ago

• Best tools to show the difference in files between two cloned drives?

  I can highly recommend BeyondCompare from https://scootersoftware.com/. Source: over 1 year ago

• How to verify that the files are copied without problems?

  Checksums are better long term. However a nice GUI program: Beyond Compare from Scooter Software is a native Windows app that will compare entire subdirectories or even entire disks and will show a GUI of changes / mods / missing / extra files. It costs money but it's worth it -- both Windows AND Linux versions. Free 30 day trial. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Thank goodness for backups

  Ugh, ok, I feel pretty stupid but, I was messing around with Beyond Compare (a nice piece of software that I highly recommend, btw) comparing my internal drive with an incomplete backup thereof, trying to delete duplicates. My best guess (and I'm still not sure but taking an educated guess) at what happened is, while I was deleting, I accidentally selected *both* the left and right sides, instead of just the...

• What are some of the coolest/most useful programs to have in 2022?

  BeyondCompare is a tool I love for comparing configuration files or t directory trees. Source: over 2 years ago

• Favorite source code comparison tool / diff tool?

  I love Beyond Compare 4. I use it often for folder and file diffs. I like that I can have different projects for each codebase. The coloration and UI is nice too. Source: over 2 years ago
