WTF... fish's "help" command is launching something in Wine instead of opening in Firefox.

I am confuse.

Apparently Duplicati won't work on Ubuntu 22.10 and derivatives because it doesn't know about OpenSSL 3.0. D'oh!

I found @hacks4pancakes so I guess infosec.exchange is the right? infosec server.

I didn't recognize any other names from Twitter, but maybe more folks will move over.

Oddly (?) I still haven't found a Linux backup solution that I like. restic apparently doesn't work great backing up to SMB shares.

What I really want is a Linux client for Backblaze Backup (note: not B2 storage).

Going to give Duplicati another try, although I seem to remember it corrupting archives last time I used it…

Re-#introduction?

I really don't know what to say; I'm older than you think, I'm married, I've got a son. I love animals and currently have two naughty dogs (a rat terrier/pug and a rescue pug).

I program (C, Python, whatever), I dabble in game dev (with Godot), I'm currently obsessed with Final Fantasy XIV.

I read a lot of fantasy/horror/sci-fi and am picky about TV/movies but love terrible old horror movies.

I prefer open source but am happy to pay for good things especially games.

@wolfie LOL I started on mastodon.social before I knew anything. Then mastodon.technology was shutting down...

KDE seems to have a feature where if you click and hold on a window, you're now moving the window.

I need to find a way to disable this or extend the timeout, apparently I click slowly or something and I keep yanking my windows all over.

At this point I think I prefer #Mint to #Kubuntu, but I haven't used it long enough to make a proper opinion. I'll see what bugs me over the next few weeks/months.

Not sure what changed, but I was able to set Alt+H to minimize the current window. I might have KDE set up the way I like.

This is probably blasphemous, but I really want to disable the Alt menu shortcut in #KDE. You know, the one where you hold Alt and some letters get underlined, and you can operate the menu by pressing those letters?

I've only ever used these in Windows back when it required specific mouse drivers. Now they're in the way of some global shortcuts I want to use.

It turns out that #Wine uses a very low-level API for getting keyboard events in X. This is why #FFXIV wasn't working correctly with my CapsLock->Ctrl mapping.

I had to find a lower-level remapping tool: https://github.com/samvel1024/kbct

I'm tempted to fork that and clean it up (it's #Rust, and I want to learn Rust) as it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite a while…

Thanks to @cygon I figured out how to get the KDE task bar on the left where it belongs.

Still salty about Microsoft killing #Wunderlist, MS Todo isn't nearly as good.

Somehow, this "Choose a to-do list app" -> "App is discontinued" sequence has happened to me three times.

Freeloading on Remember The Milk, one of the few with both cloud sync AND a Linux app.

Used #Kubuntu for a few hours yesterday, setting things up and whatnot... initial minor complaints:

* some notification about using internal audio devices keeps popping up mid-screen... not sure if the new audio subsystem in 22.10 is restarting constantly or what

* why can't I put my task bar/panel/thing on the left-hand side of my screen? to be fair, I have the same complaint for #win11 and #Mint

* Mint lets you turn off the trackpad when using a mouse, I need this

Installing the latest Kubuntu because apparently I have too much time on my hands this weekend.

At least I stashed my Mint home directory before I started.

I might wipe my Linux Mint partition and try Kubuntu in there instead; I've been wanting to try out KDE, and maybe a more "mainstream" distro will work better for me.

I'd still need to either give up a few things, or find suitable replacements, of course, so I probably won't switch completely. But it'd be nice to have a decent dev environment again.
