I used to be unable to do this but took an interest in music as a hobby at some point and developed the ability to do it over time. I think it really helps to have built music from the ground up in a DAW or some such to begin to pick up on that.

I won’t buy a phone with any fewer than 16 folds.

I agree that this has been very useful for me. Initially taught it to myself when I was working in IT, and it has come in handy a lot.

Go use actual Debian, I game just fine on it.

Thanks, I’ll try when I have a moment and let you know how it went. I appreciate it.

My search doesn’t seem to return good instruction on how to do so. Very glad to try and appreciate the suggestion, but do you have guidance on how to do so? Thanks!

Primarily my aforementioned issue with Remmina not being able to span multiple monitors while running under wayland.

I think when I looked it up I saw the Remmina devs have been aware of this problem for a couple years now, but the problem is surprisingly difficult for them to fix for a few reasons I can’t recall at the moment.

Ahh I see. Doesn’t quite solve all of my problems then, but at least it’s doing some heavy lifting already without me knowing. Thanks!

I honestly don’t know a tonne about the topic. If you happen to know, what exactly is xwayland and how would I go about implementing it (on debian 13). Curious if it would have ramifications for my system for better or worse, might be interested in trying it out until other software can get caught up with wayland proper.

I did earlier and it bugged out for me for some reason and was unusable. Possibly a config problem, will try later on when I have a bit more time.

The problem isn’t really with Wayland not working though, it’s with other software not being caught up to work fully with wayland.

For example, in X, I can have my single screen windows work laptop display to my multi-monitor linux machine with remmina and be able to interact with the laptop as if it had multiple monitors.

Remmina cannot do this with Wayland as far as I have been able to determine.

Clearly not the fault of Wayland, but also kind of a pain in the ass that there are issues like this since some other maintainers/devs haven’t implemented what is required in their software yet.

Well shit. I would like this better if more things played nicely with wayland, as wayland itself seems pretty great. Remmina for example can’t do multi-monitor outside of x for example and this is breaking for me when i remote into my work computer.

I realize that this is the fault of remmina and not wayland. Any RDP client recommendations that work on wayland for this?

I touch typed with qwerty for over 20 years before learning it, so I wouldn’t worry too much about that. It’s just a matter of consistent practice.

I see, that makes sense. To try to avoid that, I have a hotkey configured that remaps my keyboards between the two layouts so that I can maintain a sense of both.

I haven’t had much of a problem switching back and forth between QWERTY and Dvorak between work and personal usage. I feel like you would have to be using Dvorak exclusively for a long time to experience that kind of problem.

For me, it seems kind of like learning to ride a bike in that just because I have learned another thing has not meant I forgot how to walk.

It’s the same reason I like TUI utilities like tiv, the terminal image viewer.

Sometimes I don’t want to have my workflow broken just to quickly check the contents or layout of what the file contains, I just need to glance at it and continue with what I’m doing.

Practicing mindfulness through the lense of stoicism. Aurelius really had some good advice.

I’ve also been learning the dvorak layout which has been fun and better for my fingers.

Also learning a bit about how to work with docker containers as they seem super handy for self hosting and whatnot.

If you have a machine and/or the storage for it, you could deploy a docker container of linkwarden and do it yourself for a lot of things.

It says it’s for “bookmarking” but in addition to storing the outbound link, it takes backups of pages as text, html, and PDF and can do so recursively with the pages links. Nice interface, makes stuff searchable and taggable etc.

Well you’ll be glad to know that NTFS drivers are available these days on Linux!
