Another user did some digging too and pointed out that the archive was the only one and was made on the day before the article, so the shaman website seems to have been created specifically for that article https://beehaw.org/comment/1430242
OP’s post links here if it doesn’t work on your instance: https://lunduke.locals.com/post/4740497/gnome-foundation-hires-professional-shaman-as-new-executive-director
The first line says “Seriously. This isn’t satire.”, but a few of the other posts are satire on the site (not all), such as “KDE Foundation hires Dwarf Paladin as new Executive Director” and “NetBSD Ported to Cheese Sandwich”. So this is probably malicious satire.
Looks like they were trying to link here, but the link didn’t work, at least on the instance I’m on. Not sure about others. https://lunduke.locals.com/post/4740497/gnome-foundation-hires-professional-shaman-as-new-executive-director
Edit: The first line says it’s not satire, but poking around the site there is definitely some satire articles on there, so I think this is probably malicious satire.
Shelter, Insular (f-droid, FLOSS fork of Shelter), or Android Work Profiles/User Profiles if your phone lets you manually control them. If not, Shelter or Insular manage it for you.
On Samsung, Secure Folder will also do it.
These create a separate user profile that is shown with a little icon on the corner of the app icon, separate from your main phone user profile (this includes being separate from your VPN connection, if any, keep that in mind). They’ll all do what you’re trying to do if you stick your games in them.
Not directly, but you can use KDE Connect (Windows, Linux, and Mac are supported) to do it by pairing your phone and PC through it. It’s not as nice an experience as Google Messages on PC, but you can send, get notifications for, and reply to sms in your PC’s notifications after it’s set up
Simple SMS is what I use, I use almost their whole suite of apps. The ones on the Play Store are limited, but the ones they put on F-Droid are full-featured (It’s an open source app suite, but the play store versions are that freemium donation style kinda thing).
Here’s the link to their whole app suite on F-Droid, has all the essentials like file manager, camera, dialer, calendar, contacts, calculator, etc. The “Simple Thank You” app (also on F-droid) works as a theme manager for all the app suite, so you can set a theme you like and then pick “shared” as the theme in all the other apps https://search.f-droid.org/?q=simplemobiletools&lang=en
Most importantly, they actually seem to get updates unlike a lot of these style of apps sadly, I wish there were more options available that weren’t abandoned.
When you do that sometimes there’s another invisible element covering the page that when deleted lets you scroll down again.
Also, try the element dropper/picker icon beside the element zapper, it does the same thing, except it sticks it into a list to do it automatically every time the page loads, also great for uncluttering needless crap on websites permanently.
They’re on one of the tabs for your lists if you need to undo one
The only ones I’ve really ended up liking are KDE Plasma, and Cosmic (both the modified Gnome version, and hopefully the Rust version in the future too. Right now I’m enjoying Cosmic more than KDE Plasma so I have high hopes for it, both are great though.
LanguageTool, a mostly1 open source Grammarly alternative, has a Libreoffice Extension. Their LibreOffice extension runs locally instead of using their servers so that’s a plus too https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/languagetool
1 the browser extension is proprietary, but their extension for LibreOffice and standalone app are open source under the LGPL
Pretty sure most people just use sudo for everything if they aren’t a sysadmin, I use sudo and almost never touch su unless I’m recovering from a major screwup
Recently moved to PopOS and while I’ve been generally aware of Cosmic I’ve been looking into it a lot recently, don’t know much about programming languages but from what I understand Rust is supposed to be really fast for this stuff.
Will using Rust cause the desktop to feel really responsive/snappy compared to other ones like Gnome or KDE Plasma (not that they’re slow), or is it more like an efficiency thing, less CPU/RAM use, etc? If this has already been answered can someone link me because I haven’t been able to find much on it
You can turn off ads directly in DDG settings
From the Wikipedia of the game in the picture from OP:
For the first three levels, there is a row of three blocks which move side-to-side on the LED display. When the player presses the start/stop button, the row of blocks stop moving. Then, another row of blocks appear above the previous row, moving faster than the one before it. Blocks that do not align directly above the previous set are removed. If the player misses completely, the game is over. The number of blocks is automatically reduced to two at level four, then one at level 10. The goal is to consistently get the blocks directly above the previous set, stacking them to the minor prize and ultimately the major prize level.

Haven’t used it in a while, but in the time I used it I didn’t have many issues maintaining it. General rule is to just check out the news before you update because they’ll warn you if a package is likely to break stuff or requires manual intervention to update.
I remember installing a package that would prompt me for any packages I was about to update that had a new warning/news since the last update and would link me to it, but I haven’t been able to remember what it was called, it was really helpful.
Edit: It was this (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/informant), though just reading the announcements before every update would be just as effective
Basically a trap made to look tempting or valuable, ex: police run a site to buy illegal stuff for cheap to catch the people trying to buy it, like catching flies that want the honey
In this case if Tor Browser is a honeypot it means feds run the majority of nodes and would have a high chance of being able to easily identify users.
Most terminals on Linux don’t show any feedback when you’re typing your password, so that someone looking over your shoulder can’t tell how long or short it is.
It’s still registering it as you type, type your password and press enter and it will work despite not showing anything.
Traditional on a mouse, natural on a touchpad. Any other way feels wrong to me.
Openboard was good but got abandoned a year-ish ago, but there’s a fork of it now that I’d highly recommend checking out, they have glide typing but you have to manually install it but it’s a really easy install. I switched from gboard and I’ve been using it for about a month or two happily.
https://beehaw.org/comment/1196291 (app in the OP I made but link is to a comment giving instructions for the glide typing)
Archive links in case the link is down: GhostArchive / Archive.ph / Archive.org
Edit: Installing the glide typing makes it partially non-foss because it uses Google’s glide typing library, which is also why it has to be manually installed.
I can’t remember for sure but I think that I got Xbox cloud games working on Firefox before with thr user agent switcher back when I had it, it also works well for those sites that don’t work in Firefox sometimes.
That’s a YMMV thing though because sometimes the sites just genuinely don’t work in Firefox rather than just being blocked because they haven’t tested it
The only archive of it was made one day before a satire article writing about it was made, and there are no traces of the website from before that anywhere online. Mods took down the previous thread on this.
It was some writer wanting to get attention who spread it.
Edit: context on why it’s fake: https://beehaw.org/comment/1430242
There’s also a lot of satire on the original website that posted the article
