If you see a piece of text that you need translated quickly and easily, use Dialect! First, select it's language (or have the app automatically identify it). Then, choose what you want it converted into. Finally, watch as the your choice of translation backend does the hard work for you. Dialect even lets you have the localised paragraph read out-loud!
You can follow the app's creator here: @rafaelmardojai
You can get the app on Flathub here: https://flathub.org/apps/app.drey.Dialect



Question: someone I know is doing a data science project for university, and needs to scrape some tabular data from a web site to perform analysis on as an assignment.
Is there anything open source or GNOME-related that is publicly listed as tabular data somewhere that could be interesting for them to analyze? Ideally something with at least 100 data points and multiple columns per data point, if that makes sense.

I released a Jellyfin client yesterday called Delfin! It's a native desktop client using GTK4 and Libadwaita, with MPV embedded for video playback.
Right now you can use it to stream movies and TV shows from your Jellyfin server.
It's still very buggy and missing features, but if you want to try it out it's available on Flathub (https://flathub.org/apps/cafe.avery.Delfin) and elsewhere (https://delfin.avery.cafe/).

"'"There's a decent number of laptops with #fingerprint readers that are supported by #Linux, and #Gnome has some nice integration to make use of that for authentication purposes. But if you log in with a fingerprint, the moment you start any app that wants to access stored passwords you'll get a prompt asking you to type in your password, which feels like it somewhat defeats the point. Mac users don't have this problem […] Why the difference?"'"

Hey, this awesome guy is doubling donations to #Gnome – and then his work is doubling his gift too!
But for one more day only, so go help Gnome become even better right now!

Exciting news! Our very own @samthursfield is one of the mentors for the December cohort of @outreachy
In the next 3 months, he will mentor interns from diverse backgrounds who are underrepresented in tech. The interns will focus on extending the #GNOME OS end-to-end tests, utilising openQA.

I think it’s time for a proper #introduction.
Hey, I am Jan, I am 22 years old and moved from another instance.
I love to play the bass and skateboard, when the weather allows for it.
My favorite songs are ICE579 by Temmis, Edward 40Hands by Mom Jeans. and Wellblech by Nils Keppel.
Like many others on this instance, I am a programmer. I have an interest in #Swift and #Golang development on Linux and I am trying to get more active in the #GNOME community.
Looking forward to meeting you all 🫶
A neat little thing you can do in most operating systems is to enter a mathematical equation in the system’s search field and get the result back.
This also works on GNOME Shell but if it’s not working for you, go to Settings → Search and make sure that the App Search toggle switch is on at the top and that the Calculator app’s toggle switch is on under Search Results.
(For some reason, the latter was off for me on Fedora Silverblue.)

We had another small Berlin hackfest this weekend!
We worked on #gnome2panda with @adz, @sonny and @lw64, including next steps for making the bookmarks demo into a real app, and GObject bindings for the p2panda Rust crate.
We also discussed the mess that is fractional scaling with @verdre and @rmader, since we're really interested in getting this done from the a11y side.

1.25 font scaling (i.e. what the "Large Text" #GNOME #accessibility setting does) is perfect for my ThinkPad's 1920x1080 14-inch screen, but it's way too big for the regular 1600x900 22" external monitor I dock it into.
I wish I could set that "Large Text" accessibility setting on a per-screen basis, but I can imagine it would be difficult (if not impossible) to implement compared to global display fractional scaling...
GTK 4 + libadwaita is just sooo good!
In the recent weeks I've ported Cozy, the #linux audiobook app to GTK 4 (no features were harmed in the process).
The PR is now merged, and here's the result:

Ok, I just noticed that libadwaita now has a file with Vala annotations to fix incompatibilities between Vala and GObject Introspection. Adw.show_about_window
is now finally usable from Vala.
That allows me to show some syntactic sugar that Vala has for this kind of functions that tend to be somewhat common in the GObject ecosystem :neocat:
In case you encounter a variadic method or function that expects string-value pairs as arguments, you can use the following syntax
Adw.show_about_window (this.active_window,
application_name: _("Example"),
application_icon: "org.example.App",
version: "1.2.3",
copyright: "© 2022 Angela Avery",
issue_url: "https://gitlab.gnome.org/example/example/-/issues/new",
license_type: Gtk.License.GPL_3_0,
developers: new string[] { "Angela Avery" },
designers: new string[] { "GNOME Design Team" },
translator_credits: _("translator-credits")
);
Vala will take care of converting underscores to hyphens to respect the kebab-case convention for property names in GObject.
The example is taken from libadwaita's documentation, btw :neocat_blep:

I keep missing important emails and appointments because of the permanent nature of #GNOME Shell's "Do Not Disturb" #productivity switch.
If you're in the area or we meet at some point, I'll pay beer or dinner to whoever the hell implements this "temporary notifications snooze" & schedule mode for DND (and I think many #ADHD folks would be grateful for this too)… even better if it has a notion of "prioritized apps": https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/2200

Auf einem 10 Jahre alten Desktop-Computer für Bürozwecke mit 8 GB RAM und einer 4-Kern-CPU ohne Hyperthreading habe ich einige Linux-Distributionen ausprobiert, um zu testen, ob man damit noch gut arbeiten kann.
Wie erwartet, liefen #GNOME und #KDE nicht ganz flüssig (getestet unter #DebianLive).
Aber: #mxlinux (mit #xfce) und #linuxmint (mit #cinnamon) laufen sehr flott.
An MX Linux hat mich anfangs gestört, dass die von XFCE gewohnten Tastenkürzel (wie z.B. Alt-F10 zum Maximieren eines Fensters) nicht funktionierten. Die Lösung dafür war schnell gefunden:
Startmenü → Einstellungen → Fensterverwaltung → Tastatur → Klick auf [Auf Standardwerte zurückstellen].
Jetzt bin ich mit MX Linux sehr zufrieden:
+ stabiler #Debian-Unterbau
+ vorinstallierte Firewall #ufw mit Oberfläche #gufw
+ einsteigerfreundliche Programm- und Updateverwaltung, die Debian-Pakete und #Flatpak unter eine Haube bringt.
Darf bleiben.

Wonder if anyone is working on adding #ActivityPub support for #GNOME?
Haven't looked at the code in #GnomeOnlineAccounts in ages but it shouldn't be terribly hard to a new provider, and then adding support in #Nautilus, #Photos, and maybe a #GnomeShell extension or it's own app.
Would be pretty neat... guess I'll do some search-fu to see if anyone has started working on this.
P.S.: totally forgot - if you want to follow the development, try things out or even consider helping, here are some links:
- the previous thread about the #GNOME default video player, with lots of great answers: https://floss.social/@rmader/111450167627181127
- some WIP GTK patches: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/6618
- some WIP Mutter patches: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/3177
I'm also looking for people to help with #Gstreamer caps negotiation in various elements, especially for V4L2 decoders :)
That's why we're very fortunate that #gnome recently got funding from the #SovereignTechFund. One of the sponsored projects is to implement GL robustness in #gnomeshell / Mutter, so if the driver stumbles when trying to import some unusual buffer you won't lose your session.
We're now working on filling the remaining gaps so this can become an actual reality on the #gnome (and generally #linux / #fdo / #gnu) desktop. And what can I say - things actually work out quite nicely! While on modern Intel or AMD systems the effect is mostly about lower resource consumption, on some low-end hardware there are visible differences on what you can play fluently.
Regarding the future of video playback in #gnome I'd like to add some more context around current developments in #gnomeshell, #gtk4 and #Wayland in a short 🧵
TL;DR: by making use of more modern hardware features we're finally in the position to catch up to other platforms with regards to energy efficiency. So let's do it!
**UBUNTU LINUX 23.10 WITH TABLET IS B0RKED**
This is just an informational post.
The Gnome 45 release shipped with Ubuntu 23.10 can't handle tablet input. So, if you use creative tools like Inkscape, Krita, GIMP, or Blender Grease pencil with a tablet for pen input, you'll want to hold off on that upgrade.
