Is this how alphabetical order is supposed to be? Nemo file manager
  • yes yes I get what you're saying but it's still odd. Didn't humans do this differently in the old analog days? I'm sure any human when working with a real paper archive in front of him, order 5 A before 5.5 A. Perhaps it has something to do with viewing 5 as 5.0 and 5.00, since they are mathematically equivalent, and come before 5.5. Although humans would also be inconsistent because they would order 5.9 before 5.11 if the context were to be chapters going from 5.9 -> 5.10 -> 5.11. But if these papers were to represent values, humans would order 5.9 AFTER 5.11. And computers obviously don't make exceptions based on context like humans do.

    edit: if I understand correctly, I'd be cleaner if spaces come first in character ranking of ANY character. Perhaps that'd make it more human readable.

    it's so confusing that the order changes when adding IDENTICAL strings to BOTH filenames. Is this really how it's supposed to be?

  • Shouldn't the text be on the left side? Im confused. The one of the right is the younger generation since they appear later again at the left. And the one saying the text bubble is the older generation?

  • Will Firefox die for good if Google is forced to sell off Chrome?
  • The main reason of Google's financing is probably because they don't want to be accused of a browser monopoly. So this will stop, leaving Firefox with very little income.

    I'm not sure if the reason you said is enough for them to keep paying.

    Google search is not the same thing as google Chrome

    I never said that

  • Will Firefox die for good if Google is forced to sell off Chrome?

    Currently, Google pays Firefox's bill by having them set their default search engine to Google.

    This will no longer be when Chrome is in the hands of another party. DOJ is currently advocating for this forced sellout.

    So will Firefox be no more after that?

    What to do with glassware that is impossible to clean

    General waste bin or glass recycle bin or neither?

    I have some decade old, gruesome tall thin glasses infested with mold and food residue, cloaked in a grotesque and sticky film of decaying death that... are in no easy way to clean. What to do with them?

    I think it might be dangerous to workers when put in the general waste.

    why can't I connect to my ssh server UNLESS I enter eval "$(ssh-agent -s)" first?

    I have my own ssh server (on raspberry pi 5, Ubuntu Server 23) but when I try to connect from my PC using key authentication (having password disabled), I get a blank screen. A blinking cursor.

    However, once I enter the command eval "$(ssh-agent -s)" and try ssh again, I successfully login after entering my passphrase. I don't want to issue this command every time. Is that possible?

    This does not occur when I have password enabled on the ssh server. Also, ideally, I want to enter my passphrase EVERYTIME I connect to my server, so ideally I don't want it to be stored in cache or something. I want the passphrase to be a lil' password so that other people can't accidentally connect to my server when they use my PC.

    Who/what are racists according to UK protests? Why are they protesting?

    I don't know shit about politics. All I know is that in the UK the Labour party won, and the Conservative party lost.

    I read some protestors are protesting against racism. What is this about? Protesting against new party that just won? I thought the Labour party was left-wing, meaning they are more on the social-equality side? I'm lost.

    I can access the SITE, but not the stream? On Caddy to my DVR

    Locally, everything works fine on HTTP (http://192.168.1.222).

    Externally, however, only PARTIALLY on HTTPS (https://mydomain:8344) through Caddy. I can connect to the site (first picture), but streams won't start.

    Any idea why this is the case? My theory is that the RTSP port (554) is for streaming and that when I go to the local address (that is on 80), the site ITSELF initiates a connection to port 554 in the background. However, this apparently does not happen when I connect remotely.

    EDIT: In the same Caddyfile, I reverse proxy my Jellyfin server that only uses a single port, and that works fine. The Caddy server runs on my Ubuntu Server 23 on Raspberry pi 5.

    Is there a way to legally obtain a copy of Minecraft to join "offline" servers with?

    I host my own Minecraft server and have online-mode set to false in serer.properties.

    Now, I want others to join but I don't expect them to buy a legitimate copy of Minecraft. Isn't that why we use this setting online-mode?

    In the ol' days (1.8 and post), I remember using some copy of Minecraft where I could just change my username on every start of this client, and join my server. Period. Done. I want the same again. Is this possible? In a non-illegal way? What about grey-area? I don't care about security or impersonation (partly).

    about 1/5 times when I double click the flame icon in the junk mail folder, the message just completely disappears. The other 4/5 times, it gets transferred into my inbox. What?!?

    As title says. about 1/5 times, the message (e-mail) is just gone. Nowhere to be found. Not in Deleted folder. Only way I can access this e-mail is logging into hotmail.com (because I have a hotmail account), then I find it in the junk folder. So it's not gone from the server, just gone in Thunderbird.

    Restarting Thunderbird has no effect.

    Has anyone the same experience? Should I submit this as a bug?

    Am I ruining my liver?

    I often take painkillers (acetaminophen aka paracetamol), but I've noticed that it's much more effective if I take them TOGETHER with my ADHD medication (ritalin aka methylphenidate) + my morning coffee. If I don't take them AT the same time, the painkiller is far less effective.

    I do not exceed the maximum dosage of painkiller (1gram per intake, mornings), but alone this would barely suffice to kill my morning headache.

    My hypothesis is that since the LIVER has to convert all three, I am effectively overdosing on either substance (painkiller or ADHD meds), and damaging my liver in the process.

    how come there is no "appearance" button on the English wikipedia?

    The "appearance" button seen on Dutch wikipedia is able to change the SIZE of the font (text) and the width of the article. This is extremely nice to have, but it's not there on any English article...

    48

    quick question: how come there is no "appearance" button on the English wikipedia?

    this changes the width of the article (resembling the old style a little bit), as well as the SIZE of the text, which is very different from your browser changing the size of the page. Very convenient.

    Only seen on the Dutch wikipedia

    Why are only SOME communities inaccessible on lemmy.world?

    I can access c/world on lemmy.world without problem:

    lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/world@lemmy.world

    But I cannot access c/whatstheword:

    lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/whatstheword@lemmy.world

    It seems unlikely that this specific and innocent community is blocked on either instance.

    What's going on here?

    Should I use Windows built-in shrink feature to move partition space to another partition?

    I have dual boot Win10 and Linux (manjaro), and I want to shrink my NTFS C:\ partition to free up space in my ext4 root partition on the same physical drive.

    I keep reading online that NTFS partitioning is best handled by Windows itself. However, Windows cannot partition ext4, so I thought I'd use a live GParted session for the ext4 extending part only.

    So why not shrink my C:\ partition IN WINDOWS, obtain my unallocated space, then boot into live GParted, and use the unallocated space to extend my ext4 root.

    This, or do everything from GParted in one go? What has the best chance of success?

    I could also install GParted on my running Linux distro, and do the extending from there. But I feel like GParted live would somehow be... better?

    Am I completely fucked or is this fixable?

    I don't care what's it gonna take. I just want a connection. I guess I can connect the VCC to another voltage source, but I have the same thing happened to TX on another circuit board, although that one can "flip" (it is still attached marginally... at one end).

    automatically signed out after some time

    This site logs me out every few [hours/days] after leaving the site. It's as if the cookies get deleted, but they're not.

    Is this intentional? Do other people also experience this?

    Login screen not registering a second identical character in a row

    I am on Manjaro GNOME 45.4 (x11) and after some recent update, I am unable to type for example: aa, or 77, or ANY two identical characters in a row, so it only registers the first: a, 7, etc.

    If I press the right arrow key, I am able to type another (identical) character, after which I'd have to repeat it again and again if I want all consecutive characters: e.g. aaaa.

    Note: this only happens at the login screen, not lock screen or anywhere else.

    Is this on purpose? Some security feature? This has to be the dumbest security feature I can image, especially since it doesn't tell you that it's skipping the character (which is not obvious if you type fast), and it also does let you HAVE a password of identical consecutive characters.

    I only found this forum post about it:

    how to view a post from another instance, in this instance?

    It seems I am unable to view this post https://lemmy.world/post/10613192

    on this instance lemmy.dbzer0.com, even though lemmy.world is not deferated.

    How is this possible? I tried injecting the /post/10613192 into the URL: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/10613192 but this page does not exist
