Yup. There's a tab called attendees. Just add people there by right clicking and make sure notify attendees is checked.

My thunderbird sends out invites just fine. Just create an event, invite guests and voila. The adressed people get an according mail. The workflow is not as mature as on outlook though, because you don't get to edit the mail or check availabilities.

There are a lot of issues with your post imo.

First, cash is going away, soon. Sweden has done it years ago. Europe is now playing catch up.

Second, a universal digital currency will remove all system heterogeneity. Yes money is already digitalised, but across several proprietary environments. I can and have set up several accounts across several banks so my spending cannot be fully tracked by a single corporate entity. This will be moot once everyone has to use the same harmonized system.

Third, one of the sponsors of the universal European currency has been caught talking about time limited digital currency. As in, spend your money or it just disintegrates after a set amount of time. Which really destroyed a lot of trust in the endeavour

To the surprise of no one, it's just a matter of time until local accounts in personal windows editions are removed entirely.

Especially as a new linux convert I would say wait a bit before switching to an immutable distro. They have their advantages but the concept probably feels pretty alien for most windows users, where you can install whatever and it just works. I've been a long time Nobara user and it's pretty good, especially considering it's basically just one guy maintaining it. But it does break on updates from time to time. My personal recommendation after getting used to linux would be opensuse tumbleweed. It's constantly updated but never breaks. You generally don't need a gaming centric distro, especially if you're rocking an AMD card.

I've recently investigated my best friend Larry. He never pirated any video games ever. Pinky promise.

I'd like to harden my device and put some of my apps (mail & chat mostly) behind an additional layer of security. I found this app, that comes pretty close to what I had in mind.

However, it hasn't been updated in 5 years and some options in the app are still flagged as in development. Anyone know of a maintained alternative?

Since I upgraded all my devices to KDE 6 I have this weird issue with my laptop and media PC. The software update icon that sits in the tray and starts Discover seems to think I'm using a light plasma theme. It's only this one icon, and it's the same for all icon themes. I do not have this issue on my desktop, which has the same updates (comparison in screenshot).

I have tried the following to no avail:

  • switching between multiple icon themes
  • switching between KDE light and dark plasma themes
  • deleting ~/.share/icon-cache.kcache

Anyone have any further ideas?

This whole thing is a perverted joke about our corrupted society. Billionaires drag each other to court over who gets to be even more of a billionaire while people working 2 jobs in that same fucking country can't make rent.

Redistribute those billions among the Tesla workers who actually did the work for fucks sake.

Does it work if you change your user agent?

Ich habe seit Monaten eine Kuriosität bei der mir weder mein Telefonanbieter noch der Hersteller meines Routers helfen konnte / wollte.

Ich habe eine FRITZ!Box 7490, die mir regelmässig unter Internet > Filter > Listen > Erlaubte IP-Adressen selbstständig Adressen hinzufügt. Entgegen dem Namen des Menüeintrags sind diese Adresse gesperrt sofern man dort kein Häkchen bei jedem einzelnen Eintrag setzt. Dieses ist mir nur deshalb aufgefallen, weil ich meine Box so konfiguriert habe, dass ich wöchentliche Auswertungen per Mail bekomme (siehe Screenshot).

Ich bin der einzige Admin für das Gerät, das Passwort habe ich bereits mehrfach geändert und dennoch füllt sich die Liste bei jedem Leeren nach einiger Zeit selbstständig mit den gleichen Adressen. Laut whois.com handelt es sich um AliBabaCloud IPs, was alles und nichts sein kann.

Ich habe keine Nachteile durch die Sperrung, mein Browsing-Verhalten ist davon ungestört. Nichts desto trotz würde ich gerne Verstehen, was da passiert.

Das einzige was mir vielleicht noch dazu in den Sinn kommen kann: Ich habe meinem Netzwerk-Drucker auf der Box den Zugang zum Internet gesperrt. Kann es sein, dass der nach Hause telefoniert, die FritzBox das sperrt und mit den IPs die Liste füllt? Ich würde ungern den Drucker Zugriff gewähren nur um das testen.

EDIT

IndigoAmber hat die Lösung geliefert: der Gastzugang war Schuld. Standardmässig ist dort die Einstellung "Internetseiten filtern" aktiv. Selbst wenn wie bei mir die Filterlisten leer sind, werden direkt aufgerufene IPs (im Gegensatz zu URLs) kategorisch gesperrt. Diese werden in die Liste "Erlaubte IP-Adressen" aufgenommen, wo sie auf eine manuelle Freigabe warten bevor sie tatsächlich erlaubt sind. Irgendwie schade, dass die AVM Mitarbeiter das scheinbar nicht wussten.

Started to get this message when accessing Reddit. I use LibreWolf as a browser, which does indeed provide a more generic user agent to combat fingerprinting, but nothing out of the ordinary either (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0). Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: seems to have resolved itself. Thanks for confirming I wasn't doing anything wrong. Let's hope this isn't some new algorithm to test if for insufficient fingerprinting so Reddit can kick ad-resistant users.

That sounds like the error message of a dev that handed in his 2 weeks.

I recently was able to acquire an older Dell Venue 11 Pro 7130 with an Intel i3-4030Y and 4GB of RAM.

I installed Fedora GNOME spin thinking GNOME might be the right DE for touch interfaces. Sadly it behaves sluggishly and the touch capabilities are lacking. Nautilus for example can't deal with long clicks to simulate right clicks, making file browsing a chore since I need to plug in a mouse and keyboard.

Does anyone have any experience with older convertibles? What distro do you use to make use of the touch interface while keeping a snappy system?

I just rewatched Minority Report a couple weeks ago for some reason. There was this scene where Tom Cruise had to get a new set of eyes because he got automatically identified everywhere. Everyone in the movie was constantly bombarded with personalized ads everywhere they went.. That movie is over 20 years old and they knew exactly what was coming. Fucking scary shit...

I've installed Fedora 38 with an encrypted system partition since I'll be traveling with my device. OS is running fine but now I'd like to have a more human readable label in dolphin for that partition. All renaming attempts in the terminal with "e2label" and "btrfs filesystem label" failed. The KDE partition manager didn't help either. Disks at least shows me the option to add a label, but can't unmount the partition to do so (Error unmounting, udisks-error-quark, 14).

Does anyone have any experience and would like to share?

Article is from a renowned german IT centric media outlet. Topic is a new ruling that allows for government spying through trojan horses on the press. This ruling is highly alarming.

A group of filmmakers wants Reddit to disclose the identities of several users who made piracy-related comments. Reddit objects, citing its users' right to anonymous speech.

Operators broke into Reddit on February 5, 2023, and took 80 gigabytes (zipped) of data. Reddit was emailed twice by operators, once on April 13 and one again on June 16.

There was no attempt to find out what we took.

This is again another instance of Steve Huffman undermining his own agenda. He makes an effort to appear tough, but we are all aware of what happens to individuals like him when businesses go public. such as Adam Neumann of WeWork.

I told them in my first email that I would wait for their IPO to come along. But this seems like the perfect opportunity! We are very confident that Reddit will not pay any money for their data. But I am very happy to know that the public will be able to read about all the statistics they track about their users and all the interesting confidential data we took. Did you know they also silently censor users? Along with artifacts from their GitHub!

In our last email to them, we stated that we wanted $4.5 million in exchange for the deletion of the data and our silence. As we also stated, if we had to make this public, then we now demand that they also withdraw their API pricing changes along with our money or we will leak it.

We expect to leak the data.

Pass on the torch, Spez, you're no longer cut out for this kind of work.

Die meisten Communities auf lemmy.ml, denen ich versuche beizutreten, bleiben endlos (sprich mehrere Tage) auf "Subscribe Pending". Alle anderen Föderationen funzen super.

Ist das ein allgemeines Problem? Ist es bekannt, bzw. eine Lösung in Sicht? Macht es Sinn so was hier zu fragen oder muss bei denen in einer Community posten?

Apparently Reddit is now preventing people to anonymously browse NSFW posts in the browser. Instead they invite you to download the app.

Ich habe mir bei Reddit gerne meine Interessen in Gruppen aufgeteilt. Somit hatte ich Multireddits zu Linux / FOSS, Gaming, Kochen, usw... jeweils mit unterschiedlichen Subs darin.

Gibt es so eine Funktion auch bei Lemmy? Oder muss ich erstmal damit klarkommen, dass mir alles bei "Subscribed" zusammen angezeigt wird?
