  • Mmm... Yeah!

  • Do you prefer to manage your tasks digital (on phone/laptop) or physical (on paper/notebook)? Why?

    The struggle is real
  • Yeah that's exactly the case. The effect of social media can't be denied. They call it "cheap dopamine" for the brain, since it's hijacking our attention and behavior, changing our action to concentrate less and getting addicted to it with a flood of information.

  • The struggle is real
  • You can also spread it to other things. A bunch of unwatched movies, undone things to do, a slew of things waiting to be experienced.

  • A Hot Drink on a Hot Day Can Cool You Down
  • Maybe because it reminds you there are still things hotter than the weather :)))

  • What's the most basic thing you can't do?
  • I should think for a few seconds before talking about right or left directions. I sometimes make mistake when I say it without hesitation!

  • Help needed choosing a good pair of noise cancelling earphones
  • Also have a look at Anker earphones. I had a pair of its headphones and it was awesome.

  • Finally deleted my LinkedIn account!
  • IMO LinkedIn is a garbage for mental health, too. Where everyone wants to show off their achievements to others.

  • How to hide this
  • You also need a license key XD

  • Will the upgrade to KDE 6 be automatic?
  • That's what I was thinking about, too. Deleting all dotfiles related to KDE stuff.

  • What is the most destroying command you can type in the Linux terminal?
  • I was a newbie user, telling a friend of mine about rm -rf /*. I typed it in a hit Enter, telling him it doesn't harm since I didn't enter sudo. But I'd forgotten that I have still permission to delete my home directory. 🥲😂

  • Firefox (snap) on Kubuntu 23.10 does not have Minimize, Maximize Buttons
  • Unfortunately you can't install Firefox deb in Ubuntu anymore (just like chromium). Canonical doing sh*t!

  • How come sometimes I only want the blanket/covers over my feet and not legs?
  • And the fact is that wearing socks don't help. Only blanket is effective against those monsters.

  • Do you need to have a firewall on a linux desktop?

    Hi. I wanted to know if it's needed to install a firewall on a linux desktop/laptop. Why yes or why no?

    question about gitlab merge request (invent.kde.org)
  • Mmm... And what if it had conflict and I got error?

  • question about gitlab merge request (invent.kde.org)
  • Sure I promise not to do it anymore. Calm down. Take a deep breath at first! :)) Could you explain the right way to do it? I'm not expert in using git. Explain the correct way to deal with the situation.

  • What less popular text editors do you like or should have a shout out more often? What stuff do you do with it?
  • I also like Kate. I use it for Python, Html/css and some other stuff. I really like it since it's light and fast but full of features. Also integrates well with my desktop.

  • question about gitlab merge request (invent.kde.org)
  • I guess you should rebase or merge the Master branch into your branch and then push again:

    git checkout master
    git pull origin master
    git checkout yourbranch
    git rebase master
    git push -f origin yourbranch 
    

    But if you got error since that new commit has conflict with your chances:

    git merge master
    git push origin yourbranch
