  • I’ve had no problems with the Discord flatpak and updates. I use a KDE variant of UBlue and the package manager prompts me to update all flatpaks when I start the computer (whenever there are updates available), which I do with one click.

    For a new user, i would think that individually managing package updates is probably not a desired workflow.




  • You’re getting a lot of flack in these comments, but you are absolutely right. All the concerns people have raised about “AI” and the recent wave of machine learning tech are (mostly) valid, but that doesn’t mean AI isn’t incredibly effective in certain use cases. Rather than hating on the technology or ignoring it, the FOSS community should try to find ways of implementing AI that mitigate the problems, while continuing to educate users about the limitations of LLMs, etc.




  • Maybe I’m misunderstanding this, but their FAQ specifically says:

    By default, your documents are stored inside the docker volume paperless_media. Docker manages this volume automatically for you.

    It also says that documents are removed from the consumption directory, renamed, and put into a folder that you shouldn’t modify.

    And that’s my problem with the project. I want to be able to keep my file name and organizational structure.





  • Oh, that makes sense. Thanks for the very thorough and helpful response.

    After reading this and some other posts, it looks like what I actually want is the standard brokerage account, so I can have SPAXX as my core position and make other investments in the same account. It looks like the brokerage account has all the same features as the CMA except for the debit card perks, but I almost never use debit cards.

    I did not know about the yearly “Savings Match” on Bloom until you mentioned it here. Maybe I’ll also open that account and throw $300 in for the cash bonus.



  • It’s hard to explain until you’ve used it, but in my experience I think this is much different than a traditional Linux distro. Every other distro I’ve tried has (to some extent) dependencies that can get out of whack, configuration drift that makes it hard to get things to work sometimes, random codecs or drivers or other things you need to install to get a system working as it should, etc. In the “cloud native” model, all the packages, drivers, etc. are built and tested in the cloud. So when they arrive on your machine, they “just work” and updates are handled automatically - it’s great. Maybe not great for tinkerers, but great for regular users who just want to use their computer.






  • Thanks for the tip, but I tried that. FUTO Voice Input method is enabled in the keyboard settings; microphone permissions are granted.When I press the voice input button on the keyboard it pops up and listens, but no output is entered into the text field. I do notice that anytime I have a text field open, I now have a pinned notification saying “Chose Input Method”. Clicking on that and choosing Futo voice still leads to the same no output issue. Any other tips would be appreciated.
