Re: [Trisquel-users] I'd like to start volunteering my time to help Trisquel. What can I do to help?
But first of all you must transit the word Flidas instead of Belenos in the sources list, in rolling Parabola this isnt a need to do this.
Re: [Trisquel-users] QupZilla-libre?
How ‘‘libre’’ this Falkon will be can’t be assessed? It is migrating QupZilla from a Qt-only platform into KDE, but KDE is not Qt only, instead needs to integrate between Qt and Gtk+/Gtk2, however by how much this matters? Basically, the "freeness" of Falkon/QupZilla cannot be assessed due to the magnitude of transitions with the project, but at first blush there doesn't seem to be any issues.
Re: [Trisquel-users] QupZilla-libre?
Yes I have heard QupZilla is integrating into KDE this summer, but not which KDE needs QupZilla to replace their aging Konqueror, though I of course know Konqueror was aging. Anyway I still dont see what QupZilla will be and related names in the KF5 or KDE5 flags of apps from my Parabola system. [hd_scania@hd-scania ~]$ pacman -Ss falkon [hd_scania@hd-scania ~]$ pacman -Ss Pepper Qt [hd_scania@hd-scania ~]$ pacman -Ss Pepper [hd_scania@hd-scania ~]$ Also KDE has a well known major con to be too resources occupying, which KDE needs to integrate Qt with the Gtk+ and Gtk2 apps, but LXQt, Deepin, Liri, Lumina are only focused on Qt which unlike KDE they dnt integrate Qt with other platforms. To be Qt only please instead use LXQt, Deepin, Liri, Lumina, to be Gtk+ only please use Xfce or GNOME, to be Gtk2 only please use MATE. By using KDE you must accept that fate your machine will be too lagged due to its bloat.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Either the rating system goes, or I will
Well, I am so used to getting rejections and being dorky and uncool that I stopped giving a flying duck about ratings ages ago. Maybe the fellow just had a bad Reddit or Slashdot experience.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Either the rating system goes, or I will
Hello, quantumgravity and all, sorry for the delayed answer. I read this thread way too late last monday and I apologize for that, this last week has been a bit complicated for me although I understand that's not an excuse for leaving a reasonable request unattended and much less for not having worked before on the voting system which I agree has long-standing issues that deserve our attention. First of all, I'd like you to understand that we don't ignore these issues, we set up the voting system a long time ago to prevent some specific behaviours and the community and its needs have evolved since then. As other aspects of the current site, it's not that easy to change this system into an ideal solution but it can be improved to some extent. Since I got up-to-date with the forum threads, I've been working on improving the behaviour of this function and hopefully will soon have some changes ready to address your concerns. @quantumgravity, I tried to reach you by email but it didn't work and then I realized your statement regarding this email address at your profile page. Can you please contact me again providing some new address so I can write you back?

[Trisquel-users] Re : Need a daily reminder
Hmmm... I do not know why that does not work. Weirdly enough, it works if you write 'sleep 1m && gedit todo.txt' in an executable file and choose that file as the "Command" in the "Startup Applications".
Re: [Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
Well, I can also sympathize with you... in that position it's really hard. Even if you were living in your own, and were financially independent, you should always thrive to make your family relations work and be in a nice place. Simply being stubborn and acting carelessly is the way of a child. So... I guess I would maybe advise you to: a) always show to them you are thankful they thought of you and cared enough to get you a phone; b) keep on explaining the reasons you don't want a phone, maybe trying to adapt it to their language and way of life, one day they might understand; c) cooperate, like sometimes take the thing with you even though mostly you leave it at home, also check it everyday at least once a day to make sure you reply back to any message or lost call; Apart from this I only wish you the best.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Need a daily reminder
Well, after a little search I found a LO Calc file that already had some of the work done for a birthday reminder. It's not perfect but I will use it for now. As a side note, the command Magic Banana suggested didn't exactly work... I had to get rid of the "sleep" command. I tried "sleep 1m" since I wanted it to just take a minute to show the file and it wouldn't open the file. I decided to just have it opening at startup, and it works with "localc ~/file.ods"

Re: [Trisquel-users] Good pro graphics card to invest in that is Libre-friendly?
@Time4Tea Why does no one answer you? Unless you use your desktop to get timely tasks completed, and nothing super critical is on it, I say give Trisquel a try. Mind you, it seems like the real solution to Libre dilemmas is to simply buy another computer. One machine to get work done, another to explore Libre possibilities. Someone once gave me his desktop with an Nvidea gaming card (he upgraded and bought a nice new beast) and Trisquel worked nicely on the used one. Of course, the machine only lasted a couple of years. Great while I had it though. It is sad that proprietary crap is used for work, but hopefully this will be less so in the future, one GPL program at a time. I write to AMD and beg (come to think about it, I should write another letter to Dr. Lisa Su of AMD and beg s'more. Hardware is sort of another frontier to engage in, to boldly go where no GNU has gone before! ENGAGE!

Re: [Trisquel-users] the crackling
So... I wrote that in evening-of-archer-and-scotch-mode, not problem-solving-mode. I realized today that I've always kept one set of headphones with my x60 and another with the x230 and only used Trisquel on my x60 and Arch my x230. I just tried the other headphones with Trisquel and the crackling is gone. It was the headphones, not the distro or pulseaudio. Oops. Trisquel, I'm sorry for doubting you. Pulseaudio, you know that you've lost the benefit of the doubt on things like this by now. If you weren't a dependency for indicator-sound...
Re: [Trisquel-users] raptor talos will make a lower priced mainboard, if you buy 10000
I had a reply from rms - he sent me a copy of what he said to tonlee the day before. In summary: he said he's going to ask the FSF people to take a look and let him know if they think the project would be a benefit to free computing. He also said that the FSF would only endorse a crowdfunding campaign if it is run on a site that uses free Javascript (which is understandable). He said there are two crowdfunding sites that are known to use free Javascript: Crowd Supply and Goteo. I had a look at Crowd Supply and they seem pretty good. It looks like they are quite strongly geared towards free software-compatible hardware projects. According to their Wikipedia page, they have a high rate of success, partly because of their close management of projects that they run. It seems that they also have the ability to help with fulfillment (i.e. shipping and handling), which could also be a plus for this. Perhaps I should get in touch with them and see what they think about these Raptor boards?
Re: [Trisquel-users] the crackling

Re: [Trisquel-users] I'd like to start volunteering my time to help Trisquel. What can I do to help?
It would be very helpful if there was a list somewhere of which scripts have been verified, so we can avoid duplicating work. Then, once a helper script has been verified, whoever did it can add it to the list. That way, we would also be able to see more easily how much there is left to do.

Re: [Trisquel-users] QupZilla-libre?
Your information seems out of date gd-scania Firstly, QupZilla is no more. The project has formally joined KDE and is now known as Falkon. The versions of Qupzilla in the repos are old and will be deprecated. Secondly, Flakon will not be using QtWebKit anymore as it has also been depreciated, Flakon (and the most current version of QupZilla) use Qt WebEngine instead. Flakon and QupZilla both carry GPL licenses and are free software. They are not forks Chromium as far as I know, they use Blink which also carries the GPL. I am not familiar with Pepper, but I know Debian packages it separately, so it would stand to reason that would be why it isn't included downstream to Trisquel if Ubuntu didn't bother to change it. Since it is a pretty niche app that seems likely. Basically, the "freeness" of Falkon/QupZilla cannot be assessed due to the magnitude of transitions with the project, but at first blush there doesn't seem to be any issues.

Some buddies will be happy using Devuan and nice to continuing using it if so.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Quantum kicks ass
Good question! My biggest issue with the old Firefox was that it quickly shovelled all of my RAM into a burlap sack and then made all my other applications ask *very* nicely, if they ever wanted to use any of it .. "You other guys aren't going to be needing any of this, are you?" ;)

But I am quite fortunate my families dunno to force me under nonfree and non-privacy messengers, and I resist being called against insane frauds and my families.

SCJ6, smart Cangjie generation 6 IME, is always missing in Parabola. I have today invited few Fuckbook friends to Parabola and Trisquel to be their first few GNU systems, one hasnt priorly known what are free software, they are first of all GNU systems in PC like Parabola and Trisquel, and F-droid app centre in Androids. Once he feels Parabola and Trisquel nice I will also need him to quit nonfree Gplay for Androids like PC, plus if present he will be always needed to throw his iOS devices.
