More Asahi Debian Bananas (Trixie) woes: I have no idea how to get the microphone to work.
It doesn't let me record anything using audacity or anki. My goal is to record my coworkers speaking dutch for my dutch flash cards in anki, but while it lets me record in anki, there's no actual sound. I […]
OK, the number one thing that is awful about Debian Bananas is the battery life of my macbook has gotten _awful_. I used to be able to last all day on macOS. Now I last a couple hours, tops :[

Screenshot of system monitor on debian bananas running kde plamsa. It shows that I have 10.9GiB/30.9GiB of memory in use, 348.9GB/1.6TB of disk in use, 5.1% of CPU in use. I'm running plasma version 6.3.6, qt version is 6.8.2, and KDE frameworks version is 6.13.0. The applications cpu and mem is as such: system monitor: 1.2% cpu and 183.2MB mem zen browser: 0.8% cpu and 3.9GB mem cinny: 0.2% cpu and 1.1GiB of mem The rest don't have any CPU registering, so I will only describe memory. discover: 155.8MiB Nextcloud: 106.9MiB calendar reminders: 57.9MiB KDE Connect: 36.1MiB Xwayland video bridge 33.3MiB Wezterm: 267.0MiB (I've blocked out my SSID, hostname, and IP address)
So here's the current operating metrics for using Debian Bananas (Trixie and KDE Plasma btw). Keep in mind I haven't compiled the mesa3D drivers or whatever yet, because I'm lazy, so that might help a bit too, but so far I'd say this is not something I'd […]

OK, time bare my soul. Here are the parameters with which I operate:
* I have a dutch macbook pro, and so the keyboard looks as described here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102743
* I want the top button to the left of the 1 key to map to screenshot
* when I hit shift+3, it should […]
OK, so what left?
* fix keyboard layout. The key next to my z key on my keyboard is labeled with a tilde and a back-tic, but if I hit, it types a < or with shfit I get a >... which is confusing. To be honest, I basically never used the other on the top right that is supposed to be tilde on US […]
Fixed window tiling! In KDE, I went to System Systems > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Kwin. Then I searched for "tiling" and remapped all the things to what I'm used to in Spectacle/Rectangle:
* tile left: ctrl+alt+left
* tile right: ctrl+alt+right
* tile up: ctrl+alt+up
* tile down […]
Another random thing that was kind of annoying was that it kept randomly clicking things on the page while I was typing. To sort of fix this: In KDE, I went into System Settings > Touchpad > Tapping > Uncheck Tap to Click.
That helps a little bit, but is not a perfect solution. While typing […]
Its happening! Its finally installing Debian bananas! Its at 70.6% now. :heart_cyber:
BTW, I took the opportunity to take _everything_ off of icloud and move it to nextcloud. Very very happy about that :goblin_joy:
