Yeah that’s the exact issue I fixed yesterday: the Super (Windows) key is configured to open the whisper (start) menu and this overrides any of the other xfce keyboard shortcuts like moving windows around.

The fix was to go into Settings > Keyboard > Application Shortcuts and change the one that’s set by default to open the whisper menu (xfce4-popup-whiskermenu) to something else. I found some bug reports saying that the problem is that xfce doesn’t expect shortcuts that are “modifier only” (as in only the Super key), and once I changed that one then the shortcuts to move windows around suddenly started working.

No idea why distros ship with this configuration already broken, but hopefully this helps!

Which keyboard shortcuts do you mean specifically? I think I fixed this exact issue earlier today!

If find myself writing anything I’d call a “program” (rather than just a script) in bash then it’s time to think about using a proper language rather than a shell script, let alone awk or sed!

The speedruns for Luigi’s Mansion were pretty cool, one of the few games with active max% and min% categories!

Given how used I am to every statement by a politician or business being this slick, polished, carefully re-drafted beige speech it’s a real contrast to see someone like Torvalds just blasting out their thoughts

It’s ideal for someone who really doesn’t understand computers (so can’t be relied on to install updates etc) if you don’t want to have to be tech support as much as for a “proper” OS

I posted this xkcd a couple of weeks ago, it’s always relevant!

I think the “anniversary edition” of Armageddon is just a port to modern consoles. The Steam version has had a few QoL updates over the years and still works brilliantly!

Nice, I’ll have an investigate, thanks

Whoops, I meant “passkey”, I’ll edit my original comment

My office chair is a gaming chair (seems fine), my gaming chair is the sofa and a big pile of cushions (and the bog, of course)

Careful what you wish for, if Firefox dies now (before alternatives are viable) then Google owns the web and no new browser engines will be able to even get a sniff of a foot in the door!

Using a security key as a password manager passkey seems to resolve this issue (I think?), but I guess the issue is more a problem for the casual user who wouldn’t bother with a security key!

Ooh that’s interesting to know! Though I do make use of Cryptomator on my phone too, is rclone on Android in a useable state?

Coming over here, chewing on our nuts!

The important stuff is in cloud storage using Cryptomator (I’m hoping that rclone should make sync simple), I should probably set up time shift in case things do go wrong

Apologies for the very late reply and thanks for all the suggestions! Have you tried Solaar with your mouse? I have a different Logitech one, can’t remember the name but it works perfectly for gestures.

I’ve been playing my non-hacked WiiU today, it’s great!

The WiiU’s entire target market was people with exactly 4 friends

It’s interesting timing, two years after a UK government spokesperson said “we are not currently considering replicating” the EU charging requirement and a full year after the European Union officially mandated USB-C charging for a wide range of electronic devices.

There’s been a bit of a change since then, mate
