KDE Connect also runs on more operating systems. It’s worth mentioning to friends who run Windows.

It’s a time-honored tradition among dictionary publishers.

Do you have the xdg-desktop-portal-kde package installed?

Like the Alameda-Weehawken Burrito Tunnel?

For example: Let’s say your email is jane@lemmy.com.

YSK: These domains are reserved for use in examples:

• example.com
• example.net
• example.org

Why YSK: Using these instead of made-up domain names reduces the chance of confusing readers, eliminates the possibility of phishing attacks, and avoids sending unwanted traffic to made-up domains if they happen to belong to someone.

I hate the formatting of most forums. Reddit and Lemmy’s comment nesting is excellent.

The funny thing about this is that it’s just plain old threading, which has been around since the 1980s or earlier, with the slight variation of showing message contents directly in the thread tree instead of beside it (thanks to today’s high-res displays).

Usenet readers did threading. Email apps could do it if the developers wanted to; the required information is there. I’ll bet there’s forum software that can do it if an admin enables it.

For some reason, most corporations seem to have decided that classic message threading has no place in their interfaces. They resort to piling things into stacks or serializing them into seemingly endless scrolls. It fails to represent the structure of group discussions, and sadly, has been going on for so long that many people might not have ever seen the better alternative outside of reddit.

I imagine the reasons include convenience (for the ISP) and the possibility of upselling.

There is at least one advantage to customers: address rotation makes it harder for third parties to track you.

The law is pretty clear on how pending boos is supposed to work,

This is the first I’ve heard of pending boos. Did you mean lending books?

They did, but had to stop because they were attracting illithids.

Alt+Wheel works for me. Plasma 5.27.5, Qt 5.15.8, Okular 22.12.3.

Is it possible you have overridden the default shortcuts, or something is interfering with them?

Do you have an unusual mouse wheel, like one that rolls freely instead of in steps, or a touchpad-simulated one?

Maybe you’ve discovered a Plasma 6 bug?

Yes, Alt+Wheel works. I think it’s a standard shortcut in Qt apps. (Compare to Gtk apps, which use Shift+Wheel.)

This assumes you’re not in Fit Width or Fit Page mode, of course.

In case anyone else is short on time but wants to know what kind of misconduct:

Zhang and Wang describe researchers using services to write their papers for them, falsifying data, plagiarizing, exploiting students without offering authorship and bribing journal editors.

An associate dean emphasized the primacy of the publishing goal. “We should not be overly stringent in identifying and punishing research misconduct, as it hinders our scholars’ research efficiency.”

Yes.

Heh. I guess subtlety doesn’t come through very well in messages between internet strangers.

Another thought: Is it possible that your original user account (which hangs) is trying to log in to an X session while the new one (which works) is using a Wayland session, or vice-versa? That might explain the difference in behavior if only one of the two session types is broken.

Good luck!

I use KDE on Debian. I have not encountered this, nor can I think of a reason why showkey would break a user’s desktop session.

If the GUI login screen is still visible when it hangs, I suppose sddm might be having trouble. To investigate, I would run journalctl -f in a text console, and maybe tail -F /var/log/Xorg.0.log* in another, while attempting a GUI login. When it hangs, I would switch back to the text consoles and see if the most recent log messages hint at what’s hanging.

*(Or whichever log file corresponds to the new X session, assuming you’re using Xorg instead of Wayland.)

Could the fingerprint reader be causing the problem on the main account?

I remember Owlbear Rodeo being mentioned from time to time a few years ago, but I didn’t keep track of it. Wasn’t it originally free? Did it go commercial?

It’s not free though, so I’m not sure it falls under the FOSS label.

Parts of it are MIT-licensed, and therefore qualify as FOSS. (The “free” in FOSS is not about price.) Example: https://github.com/foundryvtt/dnd5e
