Sure, this time it only affected Windows computers, but Crowdstrike has also broken Linux installs this year:

And with topgrade you can even upgrade flatpaks and your distros repos in one go

I KNEW IT!!!

What do you mean? The UK is right there, land bridge to France and everything.

And Libreelec provides preconfigured images for the pi. You still need to jump through some hoops to get streaming services running (html5 encrypted media extensions and all that) but it streamlines the process of getting started with kodi a lot.

Another project to keep an eye on is plasma big screen. It’s not quite there yet, but it will eventually provide a more familiar smarttv experience. (Currently it’s missing a lot of apps, that kodi has)

No. On your screenshot you can see that the apps that you are trying to install are numbered. It’s hard to notice because you are only installing on app so the numbering stops at one, but if you tried to install multiple apps or the app depended on an other package from the AUR you would see more entries in this list and each entry would be numbered.

So specifying a range would mean package 1, 2 and 3. An option like that can come in handy when performing updates

lets start with why you are getting this output: If you see a screen like this your app is pulled from the AUR. The AUR works different from the other repos. While the normal repos download standardized arch packages in the form of tar-archives the AUR takes a more radical approach: get the app on your system by (almost) any means necessary. So the AUR doesn’t contain a package but a text file containing instructions. Where to download the necessary files, where to put them, that sort of stuff. In most cases the files is just the source code and your system will compile it according to the instructions in that text file. Compiling means it will turn the human readable programing in to computer readable stuff. In other words, it will create, or build, a standard arch package right then and there, on your system. That’s why the text file is referred to both as “Build Files” or as Pkgbuild.

If you look at your screenshot, you see, that it first downloads your PKGBUILD and then shows the file as present (it uses the plural, because in exceptions there are additional files such as systemd-files that are downloaded as well).

When installing apps from the AUR yay will cache stuff to speed up build times. Performing a clean build means not using this cache. In most cases just pressing enter will work just fine.

And now is the part were I must warn you: Be careful with the AUR:

1. Every app gets root during install, meaning that it can do everything it wants during that time. It’s generally recommended that you review every Pkgbuild before installing it. Nobody i know actually does that and the AUR is moderated, so there are people that take actions if someone uploads malware, but that’s mostly reactive. To my knowledge there never has been malware in the AUR but it is a possible attack vector.
2. The official wiki states: “The AUR is unsupported, so any packages you install are your responsibility to update, not pacman’s. If packages in the official repositories are updated, you will need to rebuild any AUR packages that depend on those libraries.” yay will mostly take care of that but there is also [3]
3. Most impotently: The AUR is a project of Arch Linux. You are not using Arch, you are using Manjaro. Manjaro is build on top of Arch, but the tend to hold updates back a bit while they check them for bugs. The people managing the AUR don’t care about that. So they might push an update assuming your system to have those held back updates and things may break.

In conclusion. If possible stick with the repos and flatpak. If an app is not available this way you can use the AUR. If you use the AUR you can keep just pressing Enter until the app in question is installed. Just don’t be surprised if the app breaks two months later because of something stupid the Manjaro devs did

Technically they don’t even have to give you the option to refuse cookies if they have a legitimate interest to collect them. The idea being that if a company’s business model depends on them collecting a certain data point then you shouldn’t be able to get the service for free.

All of this means, that if a site offers you to refuse cookies they have a legitimate interest on then it’s probably bullshit and they are just using the general confusion to get more data than nessesary.

The podcast QAnon Anonymous has an episode about the same topic, also quoting three people who worked on the show. It’s glorious, Irecommend it wholeheartedly.

That’s because those propaganda outlets are generally bankrolled by billionaires who profit through tax cuts enacted by politicians voted into power by people radicalized by the propaganda. Different business model

You can actually write posts from a Mastodon account that look well on Lemmy. All you have to do is follow a few basic rules.

1. Your post must include a line break. Everything above the break will be converted into the title of the post, everything below into the body.
2. Don’t put any hyperlinks into your title. That includes hashtags and @ mentions. See the original post for why
3. Keep your headline short. Lemmy has a character limit for the headline and if you exceed it your title might just end mid sentence
4. Put the @ mention of the community at the end of your post. It’s nothing but a technical necessity, so treat it as such and hide it away at the bottom of your post

If you follow these rules you can write posts from Mastodon

What do you mean, there are no clear guides for Linux? https://demo.papercut.com/content/help/clienttool/topics/user-client-install-linux.html

It’s even in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/papercut-client-bin

Inkscape is like Illustrator. Krita is a digital painting application, so Photoshop. It doesn’t replace Photoshop in every usecase. But in that regard it’s better than the tool from Adobe (or so I’ve been told)

The reason, you aren’t finding anything, is that nobody really attempts to install premiere or after effects anymore on Linux. The alternatives have cought up and they are available for Linux.

• DaVinci Resolve provides the complete package. Video editor and (node based) compositor in one. Even outside of the Linux world there is a lot of momentum behind this tool, as I probably don’t have to tell you. Keep in mind, that the free version on Linux has some limitations, that the free versions on the other OS’s don’t have (missing h264 support for example)
• Left angle Autograph (https://www.left-angle.com/#page=95) is a young product, having seen its first release earlier this year. It’s a direct competitor to After Effects. A timeline based VFX tool. Unfortunately fairly expensive as well.

Back to your question: making things work with wine has a significant drawback. Your system can break with every update. So you’re not making it work just once but over and over again.

ALLES EINZELFÄLLE

The other one did as well (https://zdf.social)

Open Media Vault. It’s Debian, but with a nice web UI on top to manage the system. It allows you to setup NAS-shares visually, so you don’t have to rely on your ancient and possibly a bit rusty terminal knowledge. It also gives you the option to easily install portainer, a way to manage docker containers, like a firewall

And thanks to activityPub there is interoperability between services. I only have a Mastodon account, but I can follow people on pixelfed without problem. It moves the focus back onto communicating rather than being on the platform
