If "Lumen" is the same as "Quantum", then since I was forced to drop my slow-but-rock-solid DSL for the quantum "upgrade" a year ago, it's been neither "stable"
  nor "reliable." (And a double fuck-you for blocking *INCOMING* 25. WTF is that all about?)

And the hits just keep on comin'

We don't want muffins, no toast, buns, baps, baguettes or bagels, no croissants, no crumpets, no teacakes, no potato cakes and no hot cross buns! And definitely no smegging flapjacks!

> Since Ubuntu Server doesn't typically have any Wifi drivers baked in you need to (hope that you can) use your LAN port or otherwise sneakernet the required packages across

Not sure when the last time you tried it was, but I just did a 24.04 server install two weeks ago. I was expecting to have just that problem when I did the initial setup on my workbench (currently lacking a hardwire after an incident with the puppy), but it supported my USB wifi dongle OOTB.

Has Heroic made it possible to paste a password into the store login yet? Last time I tried it on my Deck, a couple months back, it was a non-starter, since I couldn't be arsed to transcribe the 32-character random string from Bitwarden on the on-screen keyboard.

There was a github issue open for a while, but it seemed to be being ignored.

No, it prompts with data files and archives (though Zen doesn't seem to recognize any of the handlers, so "Open With" is empty, which is weird) but executables don't give me the option, which is still half my annoyance. But half is better than full, I guess, if Manifest V3 forces me to switch back...

Nah, Zen, like Vanilla Firefox, just gives me "Save File" and "cancel", at least with installers.

What a pain in the ass..

Do any of those those Firefox-derived browsers let you "open" downloads directly from the "download file" prompt? That and not having to confirm "dangerous" downloads were the simple but "killer" features that sent me to Vivaldi some years ago.

Not Discord. The Discord admins have been heading the same way as Reddit's.

That's just the GPCGMR version. The CPs got it at the end of August. And if even *they* panned it...

No, that's Mr Thou over there!

I remember AudioGalaxy which was much less exposed, but was a great technology. You ran a "satellite" on the best connected machine you could find, but you could search and choose what to download from any machine on the net. Then you just picked up your files on the satellite when you had enough to fill a a 700Mb blank CD, and hived that off to your hard drive (if you had space) or just kept a bunch of mp3 CDs that many physical HiFi players could read. It was like Napster on steroids. It was shut down pretty quickly though. DCC on IRC channels worked well but was pure 1 to 1 peer to peer only.

Why would anyone trust a company named after a set of crystal balls cursed to mislead or corrupt the will of the user?

Found the modded minecraft player.

We just have to catch them before they merge with those damn Chenjesu.
