I am using a stock Pixel 6a. From the home screen, I can swipe down anywhere to pull down the notification shade.

The one-handed mode gesture (and function) is different though. Settings → System → Gestures → One-handed mode:

Usage:

There is a one-handed mode gesture that you can enable. It allows you to swipe straight down on the gesture bar to pull the entire top of the screen down.

The first one that comes to mind is zoom.us

Banning CFCs went pretty well too

Laptop Gets To Age When It Can Be Lightly Tossed Sometimes

There is also the legend of some military base having too much reddit traffic too.

It was no legend. A (since-deleted) reddit blog post called out Eglin AFB by name.

The other two cities listed under most “addicted” have large data centers.

The conspiracy theory though… Meh.

Stupider than Hugging Face?

Is Pushbullet still a thing?

Like many other pieces of functionality, Google could surely push this out in a Google Play Services update.

At least until they cancel it later.

If any KDE developers read this, we seriously and strongly recommend that the KDE team takes a long, close look at Deepin. DDE shows both how pretty and how functional a Windows-style desktop can be, without needing Plasma’s multiple overlapping options. This is what we’d hoped to see in Plasma 6, but didn’t get. It’s probably fair to say that Deepin is the most sophisticated implementation of a Windows-like interface on any OS these days. It’s considerably more flexible and configurable than Windows 11 itself, and it makes Cinnamon, MATE, Budgie, and the others look clunky and old-fashioned. Don’t get us wrong; this grumpy old vulture is happier with the relatively austere and Spartan Xfce, but for those who want something that’s shinier out of the box, DDE shows how it ought to be done. Even Microsoft could learn from the Chinese developers.

The pause feature doesn’t actually stop the app from running. It just pauses notifications.

You’re looking for something more like Greenify.

Not a 13-14 gen Intel, per chance?

It reads very “if it ain’t broke, take it apart and fix it”

Nobody:

Crowdstrike:

Sysadmin here. Wtf are you talking about? All we did was “rapidly fix the issue by disabling Crowdstrike module.” Or really, just the one bad file. We were back online before most people even woke up.

What do you think Crowdstrike can do from their end to stop a boot loop?

E.g. why do you need more than 2 years of support for a workstation?

Enterprise isn’t rolling out the new release on release day.

Enterprise is waiting until the “.1” release so that the most glaring bugs can be identified and resolved. And enterprise is doing gradual rollouts after that, with validation, training, hardware refreshes, etc.

For a release with only two years of security updates, it would not be surprising for a given enterprise to only have the chance to take advantage of, at most, one year of them.

A two-year LTS release cadence with a five-year tail of support and security updates is much more practical. That leaves enough overlap in support for enterprises to maintain their own two-year refresh cadence without having to go through periods without security updates and support.

Stating that debian isn’t secure enough really confuses me as it is one of the most solid distros out there.

Where is the toggle to enable NIST-certified FIPS compliance in Debian? On Ubuntu you just enable it using the pro client and reboot.

It would have been BackTrack Knoppix back then. And even that wasn’t released until 2000.

They already do that regardless of the state of those toggles. You have to turn that off in a different spot.

The main Bluetooth and Wi-Fi toggles otherwise just stop your device from actively associating/pairing with other devices. They do not control the radios.

The script-based systems came first. They had to evolve into the amalgamation of pitfalls that they have become for someone to abstract out their important concepts into something that could use configuration files.
