Unfortunately. . . wailing and pulling of hair over and over does little to turn the tide. It only wastes Devuan resources and perhaps provides therapy for those with nothing more constructive to do . . .

Sadly not in 25 words or less . . .

@quickfur . . . I bet you could make an excellent contribution to the joke thread with that info!
#4 Re: Off-topic » How to derail a thread part 2 » 2024-07-24 15:06:16
Good grief! If y'all knew anything about Devuan or those responsible for providing it, you wouldn't be posting such drivel. The constant flow of useless babble here and elsewhere is more than annoying. Please get a grip . . .

Yes, I remember rrq's objection to your unclickable links and I likely said something at some point also. I also understand your logic.
Since you are a bit of a noob, I'll share some history . . . at one time, iirc, rrq removed the truncated live link function so links printed in their entirety. Due to user feedback from those who like to click a link, the live, truncated links were returned. Will be interesting to hear other forum members feedback about your manipulations to "have it your way".
But . . . what keeps ringing in my ears is this:
"The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one."
In the meantime, please use the standard protocols of this forum as they were intended.

Hrumph . . . Please explain why are you using code tags for normal text. It's a bit disorienting . . .

@zapper . . . seems you're having a bad day . . . The movie in your head is the movie in YOUR head and obviously stressing you. Please take a deep breath and change the channel you're watching . . .
@pl . . . ditto

Whoa, zapper! Name-calling? Really? Maybe you'll want to take a deep breath and rethink that . . .

Yep, me too. Been skeptical of it since day one. In fact, one of my prime reasons to ditch the Windoze world and go all-out Linux . . .
Me too not long after Y2K and the first announcements that windoze was going to the cloud . . .
#10 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Connman panel icon not there ... » 2024-07-16 15:47:39
In Xfce Settings there is a Sessions and Startup - Application Autostart list. You should be able to add Connman to that list. Caveat . . . I am still on Chimaera . . .

Confirmation much appreciated. Thanks!
#13 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] Mailing list subscription broken » 2024-07-12 15:42:15
@Tritonio . . . Please give that link another try. It should be fixed . . . Again, thanks for letting us know that it was broken!
#14 Re: Installation » does the Brave browser work here? » 2024-07-11 00:53:48
There are quite a few Brave users here but alas, not me . . .
#15 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] is there not an ISO that doesn't immediately start the installer? » 2024-07-10 23:23:22
I seem to remember that there are no live Excalibur (testing) isos available but there will be after the freeze. Right now there are too many changes happening upstream to keep the live iso current.

Memory issues? Wasn't once enough?

#17 Re: Devuan » lists.dyne.org require rDNS for senders » 2024-07-10 01:17:29
Sadly, there is nothing that Devuan can do because Dyne admins the backend of their mailing lists. 
#18 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Firefox broken? » 2024-07-08 18:42:00
Well, there is always Stylus which is a bit of a pain but gets the job done. I was using it before uBlock Origin and it is still running and working. Oops . . . power just winked in and out. Thankful to have everything important hooked to a UPS . . .
#19 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] Mailing list subscription broken » 2024-07-08 13:36:08
Thanks for letting us know. Will get that fixed asap. Until then, all the available subscription links seem to be working from this page:

#20 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Firefox broken? » 2024-07-07 18:06:08
Is there even the equivalent to the script/add blocking plugin system for chrome?
uBlock Origin works just fine and has an option to block JS and also options to block stuff with a click..

I hope . . . erm, poke to please. 
#22 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-07-05 15:02:25
THUD . . . or maybe spud? That is biologically impossible. Potatoes are waaaay too gnarly for 2 halves to look alike. Maybe more coffee?
#23 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-07-04 00:49:56
Lighten up, @golinux! This is a joke thread . . .
Yeah . . . it's a joke for sure . . .
Sorry, couldn't resist . . . hehehe

As someone once said, you are only young once, but you can remain immature indefinitely! tongue
Very sad and very true but . . . somehow (and thankfully) I missed that memo so can't really relate to the glorification of youth. I was once trapped in a young body and had to associate with silly young ones and did so as little as possible. Adult company and conversation was still rather boring but a bit more interesting . . .
