Yo dawg, I heard you like Linux. So I built a Linux container for your Linux phone. Now you can enjoy Linux while enjoying your Linux phone.

How are you parsing JSON on the command line? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

True. I wouldn't use them for very complicated stuff. I currently use them for "what is x?" and "how is x different from y?" kinds of question.

One advantage of using an AI is that it removes a lot of fluff that you get on blogs. However, that can change very soon when our AI overlords figure out monetization.

There are hundreds of Windows and Linux apps which can open PDF, but so far only Adobe's version is the only one which can attach a digital signature. I normally use Zathura on Linux which is like a 5 MB maybe. It's tiny, very configurable and JUST a pdf reader.

Wrong!

How can I easily and conveniently transfer files wirelessly between my linux computer and android phone? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] xavier666@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

Solid explorer on my phone. Nautilus or any file manager on PC.

sftp each one from the other. Add the connection as a favourite. File transfer becomes a drag and drop thing. Bonus points if you create a static IP for each device.

Adobe is worse than scammers. Scammers at least have the self realization that they are scamming. Adobe will steal your money and huff on the fumes that they are providing a valuable service by letting people open PDFs.

I recently downloaded their PDF reader (because it's the only app which allows for digitally signing a document with a visible cryptographic signature) and it's 400 MB in size. In no world should a PDF reader be that large.
