Yes, if I get the information right, from kernel 6.14 onwards, one should use the mac80211 driver, already included in the kernel, instead of the 8812au driver from morrownr.

The driver to use my flatbed scanner on Linux actually is the one for Windows XP. Directly on Linux, no VM, (and no WINE).

If you’re talking kernel-level drivers – and I don’t know what “drivers” means here — you can’t use Windows drivers on Linux.

If, in some (rare) occassions, you can use Windows drivers on Linux, WINE is definitely not the proper method of installing them.
Unlike a VM, WINE doesn’t have access to any hardware, so the installer doesn’t ‘see’ that the required hardware is installed.

The Ubuntu font family is the first that comes into my mind.

It’s as if I, too, have a problem with eating wires or plastic I found on the floor and she and I are working on that problem together.

That’s precisely not the royal we. The royal we would imply that she means only herself and not herself and her cat.

Ah, ok. I somehow got that wrong.

Isn’t one usually interested in the speed relative to the ground?

The Pitot tube doesn’t work as the ballon is moving (more or less) with the wind, i.e. both pressure tubes, the one for static pressure and the one for total pressure, in the Pitot tube experience (almost) the same pressure, resulting in measuring (almost) zero dynamic pressure and thus velocity.

Yes, from the Mozilla PPA. One may also want to prevent snapd from being installed again by pinning it with a sufficiently low negative priority.

Of course one should avoid using the originally provided GTK software under KDE, as it’s also spamming the app drawer.

It should work the same as for the Ubuntu -> Kununtu transition: Install some KDE Plasma desktop metapackage, logout and login using KDE, then remove the libgtk* packages to uninstall the Mate/Cinnamon desktop and it’s associated applications. One can reinstall the desired packages, e.g. Firefox, Thunderbird, Synaptic, afterwards.

It doesn’t come with KDE

It doesn’t come with KDE preinstalled

You can e.g. mintify your Kununtu by installing Linux Mint packages instead of the original Ubuntu packages (add the corresponding LM repos matching your Ubuntu version and give them a sufficiently higher priority) or, alternatively, install KDE on Linux Mint.

I also think, the facial expression of the young woman shows too much joy for the unwanted present snaps are.

Probably a modification of this.

As a German, you often don’t find Deutschland in a list behind Danmark, but between other countries starting with G.

My first point is, in other words: From Google’s pov, the F-Droid team is “the developer” who’s key and personal information Google would request to allow installing apks with their signature on Android devices.

As the F-Droid team signs the (not repoducibly built) apks with their own key, Google would have to allow the key of the F-Droid team then.

Yet, as Google currently does not permit apps in their PlayStore that aren’t in line with their business model, e.g. NewPipe, they would then force the F-Droid team to do the same.

The list would be extra fun in a foreign language but keeping the English order.

As I understand the readme, for blocking usual apps root privileges are required:

Please note: For normal applications, the Shell permission in Shizuku mode is not sufficient to change the switch status of components. In other words, unmodified APKs do not support non-root modification. If you want to use Shizuku to modify the component status of normal applications, please start Shizuku with Root privileges.

It should work without root privileges for apps in ‘testing mode’. Yet, they only provide a guide to flag apps as ‘testing’ in Chinese language.

Strange. The link no longer works for me either. Anyway, it’s here under this post:

Debian is just Ubuntu before they add Snap.

Or, remove snap from Ubuntu:
