Linux

using gimp with Noto font and AMD Ryzen layout

This is one of the features I miss on Windows (https://github.com/Collective-Software/ClickPaste), I was wondering if there was an alternative to this for Linux?

Essentially instead of pasting all the text from your clipboard, it will type out the contents as though the letters were typed on the keyboard. One by one. This allowed me to "paste" into VMs and other places that I normally couldn't.

The ol' google gave me nothing but "How to paste into terminal" posts which is not what I want.

I have a thinkpad T480 with LMDE and up until about two months ago it would work with this Samsung commercial display TV, although it never played audio from the TV like it was supposed to.

Now when I plug in the HDMI cable the screen turns black (not blue, which is when there's no signal). If I go into display it shows that the TV is connected.

I know that this isn't a hardware issue because I've used the same HDMI cable and laptop on a different TV and it worked fine. xrandr also says that HDMI-2 is connected.

Help

(Release is still in progress…)

Currently the only thing stopping me from moving over is that the only way to get lossless music strreaming is through qobuzz, and im too lazy to move from apple music. what i just thought of though, is maybe running a windows or macos vm, and keeping apple music in there. how good is the audio though? does anyone know if bit perfect audio passthrough is possible? thank you

My Flatpak Firefox v. 132 freezes regularly especially if I'm on a site with lots of images and videos (like YouTube).

I was told by another user that copying everything from the original profile's directory (profile1) to a newly created profile's directory (profile2) stopped the freezing issues for them:

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/cache/mozilla/firefox/profile1/

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/cache/mozilla/firefox/profile2/

However, after copying data from profile1's directory to profile2's directory, setting profile2 as the default profile in about:profiles, and restarting Flatpak Firefox, profile2 doesn't load up any of my bookmarks, bookmark folders, passwords, or extensions from profile1—Firefox runs as if it was freshly installed (it guides me through the process of importing bookmarks, passwords, etc.).

How do I resolve this issue?

Edit 1: I think that I may have gotten it to work. I transferred files from:

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/firefox/profile1/

to

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/firefox/profile2/

And everything seems to be working. I'll test this out and update this post to let you guys know if it really worked or not.

I have an old notebook which I've been toying with a few smaller distros on (typically easy to install, liveCD types), and while I enjoy the tinkering aspects of this, I had a thought that I've been mulling.

In the past I've run distributions based on larger, better supported, systems (Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, etc.) and if or when they have folded, like crunchbang did, or PeppermintOS (however briefly), I just changed them out.

However, if I were to go back to peppermintOS, say, would it be feasible to 'convert' the system to the parent distribution? So, could I force peppermintOS to 'become' Debian, for example? Or is this overly simplistic? It's a level of engagement with my operating systems that I just haven't had!

i'm sorry if this isn't linux related but recently i've been struggling with some stuff, so i usually talk to my friends on matrix (used to actually!!),, i decided to leave matrix and talk to them on email (because email always works and is a much calmer version of instant messenger i think so). but now i think i would like to go back to matrix, i can only choose one, sorry,, please tell me which one.. oh and i'd be using nheko of course because my debian-based xfce distro runs kind of slowly on my 2006 toshiba

There is a feature in termux (android) history command which when you use !371 to execute the command 371 in the command history it prints that command in the prompt instead of executing it, then you just press enter to execute it. I found it very useful because many times I want to execute a command that is in the history but with some modification, I'm using Konsole in my desktop PC and I couldn't find an option to make such a thing. The only one I found is executing history -p !371, but that just print the command to stdout and not to the prompt itself.

EDIT: the answer is !371:p then up and the command 371 shows up in the prompt. Thanks Schizo!
