    Drag and drop is an absolute mess on Windows, too.
    You’re copying data from a program and inserting it into a different program.
    Depending on which programs those are, the data needs to be converted, or only a selection of the copied data needs to be inserted.
    The destination program has to guess which parts you need, and the source program is written by someone else.

    In your case, you add flatpak on top of this complication, which by design limits what a program can see and access.
    And allowing it to see the network share you actually want it to access is too complicated for you.
    So you want a program to guess that in this case it’s probably OK to read from the place you didn’t allow it, and give itself permission without asking?


  • This pen  is not for sale.
    I can license it to you for writing uncontroversial texts, for $9.99/month/user.
    I’ll get full rights to everything you write with it, and if you write something that violates my terms of service, I’ll take back the pen and erase everything you ever wrote.









  • This looks like a hardware issue.
    I’d guess at overheating, or an error with the CPU’s energy management.
    First thing I’d do is look if there’s a BIOS update available.
    Then install lm-sensors (there’s also a GUI frontend called psensor and a gnome shell extension) to show CPU temperature, and check if they’re too high. If they aren’t, you could set your CPU to always use max power and see if that fixes it, but it will reduce battery life.
    Or try a different distro from a live USB and see if that makes a difference.

    The direct translation of the German text:

    Court clarifies:
    Drinking coffee
    during
    working hours is
    grounds for dismissal

    2 days ago - A short break, grabbing coffee in a café
    and then continuing to work? That can
    have consequences and even justify an immediate
    termination…

    (I disabled seeing votes by the way)

    Fun related fact: “Antifa” is also like that.
    It’s not an organisation. If you’re against fascism, you’re part of Antifa.
    That’s why declaring “Antifa” a terrorist organisation is so dangerous.
    The only thing that makes you a “member” is your thoughts.
