Yeah Xournal++ is probably the best hand-written note taking and PDF annotation program available on Linux, it's pretty well known. The system settings permission is to honor some global settings you might have enabled, and the file system access is so you can save and open stuff from anywhere, I assume.

While it's not on the main F-Droid repo, they distribute it in their own repository: https://app.futo.org/fdroid/repo

I have the exact same issue on my Pixel 4a. Tried a bunch of stuff, even installing their gallery app (with network and everything in XPrivacyLua blocked), to no avail. It just crashes when using the shortcut.

My "solution" was to place a shortcut to the normal gallery app on the home screen and train myself to quickly switch to it.

What does Windows do? Genuine question, I've not used it since the 7 days. Regarding Linux, that's true for stuff installed through regular package managers and whatnot, but Flatpak is pushing a more sandboxed and permission oriented system, akin to Android.

This has nothing to do with the mobile app, which also has password/biometric unlocking, it's about the desktop electron app.

I carry my things in the front pockets of my jeans: on the right, just my bare Pixel 4a; on the left, my keychain (with 3 keys and 2 small tools, no car keys), my small leather wallet I bought at an artisan market many years ago and occasionally my trusty Edifier X3 earbuds.
Then, in case I make purchases and people hand me tickets (which I've been getting into the habit of refusing in advance, no need to waste paper), I stash them in one of my back pockets, typically the right one.

The layout for my left front pocket is almost always the wallet to my right, the keychain to the left and the earbud case on top of the wallet.

Additionally, I typically wear my analog wristwatch (smallish, very simple and non-flashy, matte grey metal core with lightish leather band) in my left arm and, in sunny days, wear my aviator-style glasses.

In winter, I may use a scarf and/or gloves, but it's often not necessary where I live.

Cool! Thought they weren't common across the Atlantic.

Yeah, distros should, at most, change the default accent color and some pannel icon, but no more than that.

Damn, in what region? Never spotted anything like that!

[–] tmpod@lemmy.pt 9 points 1 day ago (3 children)

lmao never seen such peculiar animations over here, that's crazy

[–] tmpod@lemmy.pt 32 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

Here in Portugal, most display useful info like date, time, outside temperature (with varying degrees of accuracy), as well as services provided by the pharmacy or some general (often season specific) health recommendation.

The use of a bright green sign is, of course, to seek attention, but it's also useful to quickly spot an open place at night, when most are closed and only a few remain opened longer in each town/city neighborhood (called "farmácias de serviço", i.e something like "pharmacies in service"; they usually rotate between themselves each week). Nowadays you can check which places are available at night through a nice website, but the signs remain a useful thing, nonetheless.

The animations are just a culture thing now, I'd guess. Different pharmacies employ different animations, some wackier, some less, though there are very common animations for sure, such as the one where a 3D cross is animated rotating on multiple axis at the same time, making a nice spin back to its original position.
Why? I dunno, they break up the usual info display and help grab attention? I dunno, you get used to it and it mostly gets filtered into the background hehe

Can confirm that in Portugal, pretty much every single pharmacy has one of these, with varying degrees of wacky 2D/3D animations and info display.

Mozilla Common Voice (commonvoice.mozilla.org)
 

O Mozilla Common Voice é uma iniciativa para ajudar a ensinar às máquinas como pessoas reais falam.

Voz é natural, voz é humana. É por isso que estamos empolgados com a criação de tecnologia de voz utilizável para as nossas máquinas. Mas para criar sistemas de voz, os programadores precisam de uma quantidade extremamente grande de dados de voz.

A maior parte dos dados usados por grandes empresas não está disponível para a maioria das pessoas. Nós achamos que isso sufoca a inovação. Então, lançamos o Common Voice, um projeto para ajudar a tornar o reconhecimento de voz aberto e acessível a todos.

Uma excelente iniciativa da Mozilla, pouco conhecida apesar de já ter uns bons anos.
O Português continua a ter poucas horas faladas e relativamente poucas frases, por isso partilho aqui.

Contribuam!

A couple of years ago, the TF2 community came together with the #SaveTF2 movement, which managed to get a reaction from Valve but little more than that. The game has gotten some bug fixes, VScript support and 64-bit builds, but there's been no action taken against the true problem -- the bot crisis.
This timeless masterpiece has been plagued by cheater bots in its casual matchmaking mode for over 5 years, making it frustratingly hard to play, without resorting to community servers. VAC is a complete joke and the lack of response from Valve is deplorable, for a game that is otherwise well known for making great games.

For the past few weeks, lots of content creators have been posting calls to action, investigations (such as the great two parter from Zesty) and opinions, all culminating in a main effort: the save.tf petition.
At the moment, it's approaching 200k signatures! If you appreciate the game, help us out by signing the petition :D
