I thought it was just the Qt theme, but I could be wrong.

I’ll give it a go! Is there a GTK theme that goes well with it?

This one?

What’s the problem with running an older OSX? https://github.com/blueboxd/chromium-legacy

I am running 10.6. Chromium Legacy is for 10.7 and above, and the same is true of a lot of software. Meanwhile, on my Linux partition, I can have Firefox Nightly if I want. It’ll run heavily, but it’s possible.

As it happens, I do have a somewhat recent browser installed in OSX, but it’s not great.

Also, running an older OS like that isn’t a good idea, as it won’t have received security patches or microcode updates.

That’s the thing, you can run a 64-bit distro as long as you’ve a 32 bit grub starting it :)

I hadn’t quite considered that somebody had implemented this. Thanks for the info!

There was also another user who gave me a link to some software that modifies mixed-mode ISOs so that they will boot on my potato laptop.

Whoa! Thank you!

Well, that explains the memes.

Well, there are two main methods of package management in FreeBSD, which (according to people who seem to know their stuff) should not be mixed.

Packages are pre-compiled binaries, which are installed with either:

• # pkg install

  or

• $ doas pkg install

and can be found at FreshPorts.

Then there are ports. You have to enable this during installation. Essentially, it gives you a directory containing all of the available sources, known as the ports tree. You cd in and run the command, and it pulls in the code, compiles it, and installs. However, due to my ancient processor, I do not use ports and so have no idea what commands to actually run or even where to find the ports tree in the first place.

Remember to check the documentation!

ONLYOFFICE is quite good, although it prefers DOCX.

A very nice list. I believe the entire Simple Mobile project has been forked to preserve the brilliant apps before their new owner completely butchers them. However, I don’t have a link handy right now.

Honestly, on mobile, there isn’t really anything. However, if you’re burdened with an iPhone (like me), I’d say use iMovie.

If you’re on Android and you’re clever, you might be able to use FFmpeg from inside Termux.

If you have a particularly powerful phone, you might be able to install a window manager (most people go for Fluxbox) and a lightweight video editor (like Avidemux) in Termux, share your screen with a TigerVNC daemon, and then use a VNC client on Android to access it. It will most likely be slow and a little choppy, but it might just work if you seriously have no alternative.

Ah, I didn’t know about any of that.

Try Friendica first. If it’s not your cup of tea, here are a few others:

• Firefish
• Mastodon
• Akkoma
• GNU Social
• diaspora*
• Hubzilla

Ah, bollocks.

I say we either resurrect KHTML, or try and turn NetSurf, Servo, or Ladybird into something that you can realistically use as your main browser.

I use Zsh with the Oh My Zsh! framework, and I use a different theme depending on which subuserland I’m in, by customising ~/.zshrc. For example, I use the gentoo theme on Debian and its derivatives, agnoster on NixOS, darkblood on Arch, strug for Mageia, apple on my macOS device, aussiegeek on FreeBSD, and gallifrey on OpenBSD. Different themes helps me remember which package manager to use and which distro-specific commands will work.

I’ll send some screenshots in a bit, when I boot up my PC.

I like Zsh because of its tab completion and command history. I also quite like its plugins.

Before anyone asks, I have tried Fish before, and I prefer Zsh. I have tried configuring Bash before, and I prefer Zsh. I have played with Ksh and Tcsh on BSD, and I prefer Zsh. I used PowerShell a long time ago, and I prefer Zsh.

It’s honestly an achievement when an airline is so bad that even Ryanair is better.

That’s an oxymoron.

Almost. I tried t’ get it on DVD, but one o’ th’ sellers were bein’ based in China, and th’ other were bein’ a “large retailer” operatin’ out o’ a garage in London, and not th’ nice part. I had already been piratin’, but I thought I’d try t’ get it legitimately t’ support th’ people who worked on th’ show. Aarrr! Few movies and series be good enough t’ earn that, in me book.

Noice.

And that’s where the piracy comes in. How do you think I’ve been watching The Owl House?
