It’s not what you’re looking for in this post, but you might be a good candidate for postpost.social (note that the dark reader addon kills this page)

I’m using this on my HTPC. It’s currently anemic but functional. I’ve got high hopes

Taken from the driver’s seat of a new pickup truck?

To hit the target we need about 240,000 new dwellings every year, and new data shows we are already falling behind. The most recent State of the Housing System report predicts we will fall short of the target by more than 260,000 homes, an even bigger miss than was predicted the year before.

I think I know what this is meant to say, but it sounds like we’re building -20,000 homes a year.

Nygaard also questions whether the 1.2m dwellings target will significantly impact affordability. “The housing affordability challenges is the greatest for young and newly establishing households, for migrants, low and moderate income households, and First Nations Australians.

“These are also the households that are least likely to be able to compete for new supply.”

This is something that always bugged me about first home buyer grants. They have always had a requirement for new builds since that’s what they’re meant to encourage, but that also means huge swathes of the people that could most benefit from the grant (because the grant can make housing more affordable), can’t take advantage of them (because new houses are out of reach).

It’s an alternative shell for Plasma, so theoretically you should be able to do anything in it that you can do in Plasma.

On my Arch box it installed a minimal set of Plasma utilities to support it, which means my setup is still very limited (and I can’t turn off screen lock!), but I haven’t tried if it would change if offered a full Plasma install.

I can most certainly launch Steam, Kodi, Jellyfin etc.

It’s not replaceable? That’s disappointing. I expected better of controller manufacturers since they’re not space constrained.

This has been happening to me in embeds for ages, and I am logged in. It doesn’t even give any option to sign in or watch on YouTube, I just don’t get to watch embeds anymore.

Nobody worth talking to takes Sky News seriously.

Several members of parliament do, but I digress.

The reality is not better, but the “fauna” thing is a common myth

I’ve been an Arch user for more than a decade and I’ll usually be first in line to defend it from dodgy claims about unreliability.

But that forum response is bizarre. Literally the last two RSS items right now are about how splitting packages will require intervention for some users (plasma and Linux firmware). VLC is an officially supported package, and surely this change would impact almost every VLC user?

New opt-depends is a nice pacman feature, but it hardly implies that things have been removed from the base package.

You can do this on Arch too and it will work great until it doesn’t. Manual interventions are rare and usually don’t affect everyone.

Open camera has that. Settings > Camera preview… > Ghost image

Ah, apologies, I use the word “app” much more liberally.

No, I don’t believe there would be a mobile release for Digikam and I’m not aware of similar software for mobile operating systems.

Digikam

• Fully local
• Search by location and place on map based on exif data
• Search by person (local facial recognition)

No search by “thing” without manually tagging though

Uno changes the rules every few years so that people have different ideas of which “house rules” are canon. Being “the game that people argue over” keeps it in the public consciousness much better than “that game that’s kind of fun to play two rounds of occasionally”

From a quick search, “sleep as android” seems to have support for both, although people have varying success with it

Hopefully this will help

If you’re comfortable with a bit of setup, there are open hardware options on the market. They’re reasonably basic compared to a flagship but phone notifications, some health metrics and telling the time are all quite possible.

PineTime (with Infinitime firmware)

Bangle JS

If you want to basically make it from scratch there’s also the Yatchy

This is the one that broke me
