Please keep at it! I’ve been looking for a while and I’m shocked how difficult such a seemingly simple thing is to get on Linux…

Is it weird to explain the reason why something is as it is? If you were already aware of it then it shouldn’t be as baffling.

Imagine this conversation:

OP: Hi guys, I’m looking for yellow tomatoes, do you know where can I get them?

You: Well, tomatoes are usually red because of [valid biological reason].

You see how weird that is?

There are also modern terminals and shells that do things the way you expect in a more convenient way, but maybe you also know this

Clearly, neither me nor the OP know this. If that wasn’t the case, I would’ve provided OP with an answer to the question they posted!

OP mentioned powershell, he just use that (pwsh) in Linux

PowerShell still runs inside a terminal emulator (e.g. Fish), so it changes nothing in the input/output behaviour.

personally I haven’t tried the more GUI-friendly terminals

“GUI-friendly terminals”? What does that mean, in the context of the conversation?

Why are you talking about GUI?

What did you use before?

And if it’s KDE, could you do a quick comparison between the two? What features make you want to switch?

The CMD “terminal” in Windows, for instance, don’t behave anywhere close to the rest of the system with regard to cp/paste

Do I need to record a screencap from conhost.exe for you to believe me when I say you’re wrong?

tab completion, etc.

Where did that come from? I never said anything about tab completion or “etc”. I was talking specifically about Ctrl/Shift combinations with arrows/backspace/home/end, and such.

Terminals are used for more than installing packages and editing files. If I login to the old solaris boxes at work via serial console and all the key bindings are fucked, I’m not getting the job done. I and most of my contemporaries rely on the way VT 100 terminal emulators work, which is why we can’t use kitty, alacrity, etc.

Did you even read what I wrote? I said that there should be an option to switch between “modern” and “classic” keybinds. With the default being set to “classic” everywhere, how exactly would that cause any problems for you?

If you want that “consistency”, use one of those terminal emulators that allows these behaviours.

Mate, are you high? That’s what the OP is asking for. Do you know any such terminal emulators? Post some names!

The thing is that vi and emacs have existed since long before those other new editors came around.

What a weird thing to say… So what that they existed before? Who cares?

Ctrl/Shift modifiers work in a very consistent way in the entirety of Windows, most of Mac, and… everywhere in Linux except the terminal.

It boggles my mind that there isn’t a simple switch to toggle between “classic” and “modern” style for keybinds.

Your comment reads extremely weird, considering both Mac and Windows handle this with zero issues.

It’s super simple: if you’re in Select mode (any text is selected), Ctrl+C copies. In any other case, Ctrl-C is the cancel command.

You can add:

• CTRL+K = delete everything from the cursor to the right.
• CTRL+U = delete everything from the cursor to the left.

The NFT doesn’t hold the rights to the image (…)

Yes, that’s what I said.

so you’re saying that an NFT owner could sue someone who right click saves a jpeg by claiming copyright infringement?

No, because they don’t hold any rights towards the image. They have the rights to the token proving “ownership” of the image.

Think of it this way: many museums and galleries have art that doesn’t belong to them, but rather to private parties. These owners have documents proving they own the piece of art, but you can, at any time, go to such a museum/gallery and snap a photograph of the art. Or even buy a professional replica.

NFT is the document proving ownership.

I think a better analogy is with IRL art.

A bunch of art in museums and galleries does not belong to the museum or the gallery, but rather to private parties. These parties own the art and have a document proving it, but anybody can visit the museum/gallery and photograph the art, or even purchase reproductions of the art.

NFT is the document proving ownership.

That’s not NFT theft. The original author of the image holds rights to the image, so they could (if they were insane enough) try prosecuting saving a jpeg.

The NFT owner holds the token, not the image.

Got the Ultimate 2 Wireless (both the Switch and the XBox version), connecting through Bluetooth.

I just connected it and it worked right out of the box, however every now and again it will “hang” and the joysticks stop working. The only thing that helps is switching it to 2.4 GHz mode, wait a couple of seconds, switch back to BT and wait for it to reconnect.

Steam finds it just fine, installed through Pacman.

I’m on Garuda Linux (Arch-based).

Wow, that looks amazing! How does running a browser like Firefox work on this? Just runs a window regularly?

EDIT: never mind, just noticed that eDEX is not maintained since 2021 :(

They’re aiming for “something the viewer can achieve themselves”.

99% of ex-Windows users won’t be going for Arch, Debian or Fedora. It’s supposed to be easy to get in, difficult to screw up.

You’re saying that an Android without any Google/Samsung/Xiaomi/OnePlus interference wouldn’t solve the problems introduced by Google/Samsung/Xiaomi/OnePlus?

Like a fully open source Android ROM.

Or add missing context that was present in a part of the sentence that you cut out for brevity.

I currently have 6 eSIMs, but on a removable eUICC.

Are you able to have two of them enabled at the same time, or is there a limit to one, since it treats it like a SIM card?

Plus all that is free. In my country, eSIM profile download codes are single use, and you pay for them. Swan is €8, O2 €10 (…) The physical SIM is free, including shipping to home, but for eSIM they wanted €10.25

Wow, that’s insane!

I wrote to my carrier about being unable to make phone calls, they replied me to call them to “continue the case” after unsuccessfully (who could have guessed) trying to call me. Bro…

Was that LycaMobile?

At least somebody probably understood what just happened, so they emailed me.

Ah, never mind, not Lyca after all. These fuckers close FOUR CASES that I raised after failing to contact me, when I was reporting not being able to take calls.

I currently have 6 eSIMs, but on a removable eUICC.

I currently have four eSIMs on my phone. I would love nothing more than to get rid of the last remaining physical SIM.

Ideally, also get rid of the whole slot to improve water resistance.

I would MUCH rather they focus on optimisation and power efficiency. My work iPhone can easily last two days on a single charge, three if I’m not really using it that much, all the while giving me all the processing power I’d need to run high-quality games on it. No Android phones comes anywhere near this and it grinds my gears.

All I’m saying is: different people, different needs.
