waspentalive,

Nice focus idea! I like depth-of-field feature photography a lot myself.

[solved] Libre Office stuck in full screen/no menu mode

I have ribbon controls, but I don’t have the menu above that. Also, Libre Office (I use Writer mostly but the launcher also) has made itself full screen, and that interferes with the panel (which I keep on the left side). I have had to resort to Alt-F4 to quit. How can I get menus back? Will I be able to get Libre-office to...

waspentalive,

Nope, I already tried F11. I knew that worked for full screen on other programs.

waspentalive, (edited )

It’s not really “Full Screen”, but it is missing the window decoration and “File Edit …” menu I think if I can put it into tabbed menu mode that will help. I am not finding the icon bar that provides the “tabbed menu” button.

waspentalive,

Shift-Ctrl-J makes the ribbons go away, leaving only the cells in calc, with a dialog box giving a button to return from “full screen”.

I think my issue is not so much that I am in or not in Full Screen but rather that I have lost my window decoration and text-based menus. The ribbons are still there and I can save my document that way and Alt-f4 closes the application.

The search does not return any hits so no keystrokes to change to or from full screen

waspentalive,

So - mark this one [solved]

So I finally decided to just re-install Libre Office. This worked, at least I had my whole window after that…

but when I removed Libre Office it took way too much of the system with it - Discover (The app store) was even gone.

After trying to install the missing stuff again, I gave up and availed myself of the opportunity to ‘test my backups’. I nuked and re-paved Debian then restored my home directory and went about re-setting up my environment in KDE the way I like it.

waspentalive,

Because they don’t want to lose a method of tracking us wherever we show our faces. I think masks will be a fashion in the future, and they are just so comfortable.

waspentalive,

If a YouTube ad installs a virus on my system, can I sue YouTube?

waspentalive,

If YouTube takes files from 3rd parties and simply displays them, then viruses are possible. This is more true of ads placed via ad-broker on other websites. To get ad revenue a webmaster provides a space where the ad is inserted. The ad is provided by a 3rd party who pays the ad broker for placement. Neither the webmaster nor the ad broker have any visibility into the content of the ad, which could even contain code (ads which move or present UI elements have code to make those things work)

waspentalive,

But I would not have disabled my ad blocker in other circumstances, but YouTube is forcing me to disable it against my better judgment to be able to use the site.

waspentalive,

The minute you automate someone’s job, you do necessarily admit that society doesn’t need that person’s work to get by

I think this doesn’t seem right. If society did not need that labor there would be no need to automate it. The work needs to be done but the one who needs it does not want to pay to get it.

waspentalive,

I just checked to see if Touch and Drag was on - it was off. I turned off “whole screen servo”, but I am not sure what that really is, I thought it was for video.

waspentalive,

I put the focus marker on the subject where I want the focus to be, then I would hold the shutter button down part way and re-compose the shot, then press the shutter button the rest of the way to shoot.

waspentalive,

I see - Getting that shot is a lot harder than mine - trees and flowers don’t move as fast as racecars. My eye is especially pleased by shots that use depth of field.

So there might be a way for me to designate a subject and then have the camera watch that subject while it moves through shadow or bright light and also maintain proper focus while I decide the proper framing and the moment to record?

waspentalive,

Thanks!

I tried several things and lost track of some of them. It seems my focus point is staying put now - it is just off-center but close enough to make me happy.

waspentalive,

Not so much servers as removable media. Three letter creature names: ape, bat, cat, dog, elk, fox, gnu, hen, imp, jay, kit, lee (fish), mus, nan (from Inuit folklore), owl, pug, qua, rat, sas (from Slavic folklore) and so on (I need to find my printed list beyond here)

waspentalive,

One place I worked we had a rule - do not name a server for any group using it. It seems the groups become territorial when you try to add a different group to “their” server.

waspentalive,

Just never make it lie…

waspentalive,

Workstations machines get first name type names that are inspired by the brand of the machine. This asus is named adam.

waspentalive,

At least when you did get an answer it might be correct, not a hallucination.

waspentalive,

You can check the CPU and memory statistics by looking at the files under /proc, but I was wondering how to get the file system capacity, so I looked at the df(1) code. . coreutils: df.c coreutils: fusage.c macOS: df.c Here is the code prepared to verify the operation of the library. Code to find out what df uses to output · GitHub For Linux On Linux, file system information can be obtained using statvfs(3). Although this is treated as a wrapper for the statfs(2) system call, it is basically recommended to use statvfs(3). (Via google translate)

Command Block question

Could one create a command block that causes a teleport transport station to be created? Teleport transports are a command block triggered by a stone pressure plate that uses the /tp command in a command block to send the player to a specific “grand central station”, a return station should also be created to send the player...

waspentalive,

The central hub mostly just provides a place to /tp to when lost away from base.
