Jay from Learn Linux TV feels that Ubuntu 24.04 was maybe rushed out the door..

Ubuntu 24.04 Review: Why It's Time to Change Ubuntu's Release Cycle

I actually agree with him that the errors and crashes he experience shouldn't be present in a release version of Ubuntu at this stage.. 🤔

where do I complain about logging using google into AU from opera? The login is the new google login and it does NOT have an option to reset password ("Wrong password. Try again or click Forgot password to reset it") has not clickable link :P
It does work on FF; that one sends a message to confirm login

I have no issues beside FF snap not saving downloads (all result in "Failed").
For ALL other software not a single issue.

@Rinzwind I'd try main meta

Rinzwind

that would be a 1st for me :D :D

I think :P

dark mode on AU chat does not work well either :( :( lots of black on black

but I do remember your icon >:=D

Journeyman Geek

Yeah, Ash kinda is iconic :D

Rinzwind

oh and I got another complaint. At 100k I got swag. At 200k I got swaq. But 300k? nothing :D :D :D

I need a new T-shirt :=D

and pen. and sticker, and a mug

another bug ..... system does not allow me to add images to an AU question :P

Journeyman Geek

12:34 PM

they stopped giving swag totally

apparently 'the old way cost too much and we're trying to figure out a way to"

Rinzwind

ah :D I missed that BUT also agree :D :D :D

addendum: nother bug ..... system does not allow me to add images to an AU question

@mpboden same! I editted a message, f****** it up so badly I went into chat, Seth fixed it in seconds but refused to tell me how :D 13 years later I am still here :D :D

Journeyman Geek

@Rinzwind o0

Rinzwind

prob. the same problem. Must be an underlying permission issue (ff does not save to my personal disk. let's see if it works if I point it to the snap dir

Ask Ubuntu Meta

Q: Opera: logging in using Google does not offer a reset password

Fresh 24.04. Firefox asks for mail and then there is a message sent to my phone that lets me log in. So no need for a password. (FF 24.04 version does not let me download anything so time to review my browser choice... Opera it is my 1st one to try; what I just also noticed it does not let me add...

Rinzwind

you don't have to remind me of my own post :P

@JourneymanGeek yep, saves fine in the snap dir. that's gonna eat my ssd up quickly :D

Journeyman Geek

I think containers as software distribution are a mistake ._.

Rinzwind

1:04 PM

yes but there is a reason for it

transmission is happy again :D pointed it to the snap dir :D

Journeyman Geek

@Rinzwind "works for me" to an extent

Rinzwind

oooooooooh cool new feature, you can directly open a finished torrent from the popup :D

-or I never noticed it :X

Journeyman Geek

lol

I'm a happy qbitorrent user >_>

Rinzwind

I have a setup here using RSS to download all the anime shows I mark. so those download to my router when I am away and when my notebook is at home it moves them to my system.
Not that is is needed anymore. My ISP went nuts. Over here we have 900/90Mbit for a decent price so anime takes less than a minute :P

Journeyman Geek

1:24 PM

@Rinzwind oh what's what I get qbittorrent to do

I mean cough linux live cds

Rinzwind

Oh I have 24.04 cinnamon and budgie uploading. Both at 700G upload :D

Journeyman Geek

and I'm semi moved so I sometimes grab files off my setup at my parents network (fully setup) to my place (waiting on some kit)

Rinzwind

OK it was fun but time to go. King's birthday so there are lots of bands playing in town,
