Linux@lemmy.ml•Is there any way to have SHIFT + CTRL + - create an em dash in Pop_OS?
2·2 years agoThank you that worked, now that I understand how to use the combo. Still wished there was a way to set my own combo. But this works

3·2 years agoI’ll give that a shot when I’m back at my laptop, thank you
[EDIT]: That didn’t work for me. Wish it did, since it’s a quicker combo! The CKEY + en dash * 3 did though

6·2 years agoAh, thank you! You helped me understand how that chart works
EDIT: Hey thank you, that worked for the immediate challenge — and now I have a use for the caps lock key

6·2 years agoThis is the type of thing to keep in your back pocket for days when you need perspective. Sure you messed up today. But did you Billy Coull your day?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Suppose we knew the world was ending. Would the fear of knowing it's all over outweigh the relief of not having to goto work tomorrow?
3·2 years agoMan, my only fear would be regarding any suffering involved in this ending and my relief would be that the whole humanity thing is ending

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Users with personal music libraries, how do you decide what to download?
2·2 years ago+1 on Vinyl music player
afa music collection, I slowly shift things from folder to folder where I gradually cull tracks which I decide I no longer need to hear. I curate rather than hoard (although I see long term value in others opting to keep everything for the sake of all; so ‘hoard’ is not intended to judge those who do in this instance).
To find new music, I lean on Bandcamp. ofc they’re trying to sell the artist on the platform; but the blogs are often quite good, steering me to stuff I would’ve unlikely discovered on my own. If I identify a new genre that I’ve gravitated towards, I read up on it, e.g. on Wikipedia, to find other artists emblematic of the style

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is it just me, or have the comments on Lemmy become extra aggressive over the past 3 months?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats something that is only worth getting the expensive version of?

I appreciate the additional info. Since I want to make Linux primary (one of my two main points in this little project is getting familiar with Linux!), I’ll look into Luks for that partition
The db2 / vm suggestion is a little over my head, currently, but I’ll research that as well!
Honestly I’ve been away from Windows long enough that it just wasn’t a consideration while I was creating the partitions and then the dual boot. I just discovered that it’d happened when I went to access the shared partition in pop and was asked for the password.
I do want to retain a shared data partition between the two OS, however. Obvs the partition for the Window OS itself could remain encrypted, since that doesn’t affect pop os. And if it is best practice for system security.
I’ll read up that link to see what he has to recommend!

Thank you! I think part of what I’m curious to hear input on is whether I should disable bitlocker for that shared data partition. Any thoughts? Is it a best practice to have it on?
In fairness to your point, this screenshot alerted me that reaper is on Linux which is nice to know. I use it sometimes and hadn’t yet thought to check
Quite the meta statement of mainstream music
