If a person was ordering them, they would do it in numerical order. Despite these being numbers, the computer is still ordering in alphabetical order.
Doing it the way a person would requires the file manager to understand context, which requires a lot more logic for arguably little benefit.
I note that your season and episode start with 0 as well (S01E05), in order to ensure the alphabetical ordering works. Perhaps you should use 5.0 to solve this in the same way.
I believe it’s correct. If you sort say “A”, “AA”, “AAA” then you get
Because the first character is compared, which are all the same, then the second. The first one has no second character, so it comes first. The second has no third character, so it comes before the third item.
In your scenario, you have:
The first characters are the same, so it looks at the second character. Item 1 has no second character so it comes first.
Scenario 2:
The first character is the same, so it looks at the second character. The second characters are “.” and " ". The “.” comes first in the character ranking so is shown first.
Pretty sure the user experience folk are screaming for a path to be built there but are getting ignored.
It’s 1996 and we have plans for a new telescope game!
2021: finally launches
OK maybe the software industry already operates like NASA.
I can easily search up people talking about both the Windows and MacOS system wide spell checks. While for Linux you just find people talking about how dumb it is everything uses different implementations: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/hu4ktg/does_systemwide_autocorrect_and_typo_flagging/
As for NZ English words, it would mostly be words that have come from the Māori language including place names and people’s names.
In theory having multi-language spell check would solve most of the issues, but I’ve never seen Māori as a supported language on Linux.
For some examples of words, there are place names like Taranaki, Te Anau, Te Awamutu. People’s names like Hone Harawera or Apirana Ngata. And common words and phrases that have made it into English like Kia ora (mostly used in English as a greeting) and Aotearoa (a name for New Zealand). There will also be company and product names as well.
Haha I get that I can’t really expect better than “English”, or maybe “US English” and “UK English”, but having a system wide dictionary I can add words to by right clicking and choosing “add to dictionary” would be nice.
As I understand it, each program keeps their own.
Linux in general has good language support.
I’ve yet to find a distro with NZ English 😆. I’d love to just start a new dictionary and add words to it for all the spell checks, but I’ve never worked out how to do this. I’m not sure there’s even system level spell check.
If you don’t want to keep running a service, yeah it limits your options.
According to this, the Floccus browser addon is not able to (continuously) save to a file due to restrictions on what browser extensions are allowed to do.
However, if you’re on Windows of MacOS, it looks like you can use the tool LoFloccus. It hasn’t been updated in a couple of years, but the Floccus dev was recommending it only a month ago so maybe it still works?
I guess there’s nothing stopping you actually using KeePass for this.
What is the outcome you’re looking for? Are you trying to avoid an account for privacy reasons? Trying to sync between different browsers? Something else?
You could take a look at Floccus and see if it might meet your needs, though it’s not exactly what you asked for.
You’re assuming that Arch causes the unhappiness. Maybe unhappy people naturally tend to use Arch, so as to avoid further pain from painful distros like Pop! OS?.
I was talking about outlook 😆. It goes straight in but asks you to accept, tentative, decline.
This stupid software they give me puts the meeting right into my calendar even if I don’t open it.
That’s great, thanks!
I’m running Nobara on my laptop and have been for some time, but I do find it crashes a bit. Not sure if it’s hardware or software (I’m using an original Framework laptop, and I know there have been hardware changes to resolve some things).
I’m looking for stability first of all, so I might try Mint first off and change only if I find issues.
Thanks for the suggestion! That sounds really cool, I got my hopes up for a second, but it looks like 5Ghz wifi is required. It makes sense, for speed/latency reasons, but unfortunately the old laptop plugged into the TV is quite old. At least 10 years old, probably more.
I am expecting to replace my current laptop in the next year or so, so maybe I’ll look at this setup at that point.
Thanks! From a suggestion from someone else, I’m thinking of separating out the machine that runs Kodi and the rest of the stack. I have an old laptop that’s currently running Kodi + server, and a desktop machine that is used for games.
I’m thinking of installing Linux Mint on the desktop machine and using that for games and for the server, and then using LibreELEC on the laptop to run Kodi.
That makes it a bit easier if I decide LibreELEC doesn’t work and I want something else.
The games largely won’t be Linux native, and will be running on Wine or Proton. Is Mint cutting edge enough? From what I’ve read it lags Ubuntu for stability reasons.
Thanks, I’m thinking I might go with Linux Mint on the desktop PC for running the server, and playing the games. Then once that’s set up, test out libreELEC on the laptop for running Kodi. My only concern would be that the laptop is (old) wifi only, so if it’s streaming across the network instead of on the same machine it might be slow. But if it doesn’t work out I should be able to easily switch to running Kodi on the desktop and retire the laptop.
I like the idea of separating fontend/backend. I’m not looking to do a hardware change but currently I have a desktop PC and an old laptop both connected to the TV. I was thinking of having the desktop take over as server/HTPC/everything, but I could move the server/games to the desktop and keep Kodi on the old laptop. Refreshing the OS on the laptop will be a lot easier once the server is not tied to it.
I have a PC remote that does TV stuff as well as acts as a keyboard/mouse/Kodi controller. It’s a pretty great setup, I just need to stabilise it a bit as it was hacked together in a hurry.
Just like the rest of my code.
