It looks like Cider is released as a Flatpak or AppImage. I’m not super familiar with building these/troubleshooting, but the error messages you are getting look like a poorly packaged app (Failed to load module “xapp-gtk3-module”).

IMHO, it’s just humans being humans. And while someone may excel in one or many areas, they’re often lacking in others. And we see it all out in the open with projects like this!

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Liberux NEXX Is a New (Still in Development) Linux Phone
1061·1 year agoA few points:
- LiberuxNexx sounds like a medication’s marketing name.
- It says “2TB storage” then in the details it’s actually 256GB + microSD support, which IMHO is very different.
- To me, this just sounds like a new version of the PinePhone Pro or Librem 5. Yes, it’s got newer & better hardware, but there’s no release date or even price.
IMHO, you should consider doing more troubleshooting on Kmail. I’ve never used it personally, but from my understanding, it’s a stable program and shouldn’t have problems doing the basics of email, like you’re reporting.

Technology@lemmy.world•E-waste or Linux? Charities face tough choices as Windows 10 support endsEnglish
5·1 year agoAnd with hardware supported by XP.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to point out, but maybe I’m missing something? I’m also confused since he’s Canadian.
Actually, they do. I’d love to see some laws restricting foreign ownership of media, but as it stands, they do have the right.
What you’re proposing is restricting free speech, and I’m not okay with that! Making media be more open about their ownership, funding, etc. is worthwhile, but as long as they’re not trafficking in hate speech or other illegal activities, they should be allowed to share their views no matter how much you or I disagree with them.

Technology@lemmy.world•'Writing is on the wall for spinning rust': IBM joins Pure Storage in claiming disk drives will go the way of the dodo in enterprisesEnglish
41·1 year agoNothing in this article is talking about cold storage. And if we are talking about cold storage, as others gave pointed out, HHDs are also not a great solution. LTO (magnetic tape) is the industry standard for a good reason!

Technology@lemmy.world•'Writing is on the wall for spinning rust': IBM joins Pure Storage in claiming disk drives will go the way of the dodo in enterprisesEnglish
21·1 year agoAnyone who has said that doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Magnetic tape is unparalleled for long-term/archival storage.
This is completely different. For active storage, solid-state has been much better than spinning rust for a long time, it’s just been drastically more expensive. What’s being argued here is that it’s not performant and while it might be more expensive initially, it’s less expensive to run and maintain.

News@lemmy.world•Trump abruptly walks back his directive to fire thousands of federal employees
111·1 year agoI grew up watching it. In the era of linear TV, even with cable we had maaaybe 2 or 3 other legitimate options for family TV time on that night, at that time. It was non-offensive (funny saying that about Trump now), family friendly, reality TV. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it was well produced, and mindlessly entertaining.
Now, at the same time, while I understand for many people, “the apprentice convinced them he’s a business genius,” that’s SOOO frustrating. I completely agree with you about “his fucking stupidity.” I think the first few seasons, they cut it well to make him appear intelligent. However, as the show went on, I suspect he wanted more and more screen time, and that distracted from the actual show and that’s when we started to notice “his fucking stupidity” showing.

Technology@lemmy.world•AMD's new RX 9000 GPUs only officially support UEFI systemsEnglish
6·1 year agoWasn’t uefi a must already for windows 10 computers?
Nope, I’ve been running Win10 on multiple computers with a BIOS.
Atleast for win 11 it is.
AFAIK, UEFI isn’t technically a requirement. However, TPM 2.0 is, and that requires UEFI.
Well, you’re the one who brought up the charter, so I hoped you would have an idea of specifically how the current standard is violating the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. IANAL, but as I see it:
What I do know is that I have a right to express my beliefs through my patronage
Sure, no arguments here. Section 2(b): 2 Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: (b) freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;
and I’m currently being inhibited in that effort by the intentional obfuscation of the information I need.
This is the problem. I’m not sure there’s any reason, in the charter or in other law, that a private business has to publicly disclose the origin of their raw materials. Yes, at certain stages they have to disclose to the government, potentially for health & safety, imports/tariffs, etc. And I do believe that labeling requires a manufacturer/distributor to be listed so there is a corporation who can be held responsible for the final product. However, where a company sources their ingredients could almost certainly be considered a trade secret, and outside of new legislation, I can’t see manufacturers being forced to disclose this.
The effect to my life will be as miniscule as squishing an ant.
Assuming you’re an American, the effects will be HUGE. Our economies are sooo interdependent.
issuing a charter challenge.
What article would the current standard be violating?

Canada@lemmy.ca•Fredericton pub goes ‘cash only’ for Canadian businesses amid U.S. tariff threats - New Brunswick11·1 year agoSure, no matter the situation, anyone can lie on their taxes. It’s a lot easier to get away with it if there’s no evidence.

And how could this war have been avoided?
That’s complete BS and you know it. I know that STV isn’t your preferred election system, but in every jurisdiction that has switched from FPTP to STV, it has led to more diverse and viable candidates.


3 days seems like a good “default” but I agree I’d definitely like the option to make it shorter.
