Yes, the songs are transmitted to your headphones, but that's over a paired Bluetooth connection between the headphone and the phone. And there's no cost to that. You only pay for the data transmitted to your smart device over the phone company's network by way of using the app. https://spacebarcounter.org

Error - Kicker; Malformed URL; system:/

by Felix Miata

I see this error popup on various installations. The instant one is a 32bit Bookworm freshly upgraded from Bullseye with 14.0.12. Bullseye does it too. The trigger is left clicking on the menu starter. On those where it ever occurs, it only happens once. Trying again after dismissing the popup always works. Anyone familiar with it, what to do to eliminate it? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Do we want to participate in social networks?

by Slávek Banko

Hi all, some time ago I was thinking about whether we want to become an active member of social networks with our project. Things like Facebook and Twitter have always been "no go" zones for me. However, I've been thinking about the Mastodon platform for a long time. Mastodon is a decentralized platform for publishing short messages and pictures. It is based on open source architecture and therefore this platform is close to our ideas. You can see profiles of other projects like @kde@floss.social, @gnome@floss.social, and others. I assume that it would help to "make us visible" and information could be published there, for example about the release of new versions, or some useful information regarding development, screenshots, solving issues and community info. Does it seem like a good idea for us to have an official communication channel for our project on Mastodon? What is your opinion on this? Cheers -- Slávek

I love TDE and want to see it thrive for ages to come. Problem is I don't know where to start online education wise. I know I can use places like Linux Foundation and Udemy but what classes does one take? Should I try learning C++? Learn what TQt actually is and does? I just haven't a clue where to start. Thank you for any help you guys can provide. Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

Setting Konsole options

by J Leslie Turriff

I've just installed a package that includes some components that run in a terminal session. The package installed various application icons in KMenu. When I start the component that runs in a terminal, a Konsole session pops up, then immediately closes. See the attached image while reading further. If I open KMenu's Menu Editor to edit the entry it provides only the 'Run in terminal check box', but not the 'Do not close when command exits checkbox'; the only way to access that checkbox is to add the application to the screen's menu bar, right-click the icon, select the 'Configure <program> button...' option, select the Application tab in the Properties dialog, click on 'Advanced Options', and finally the ''Do not close when command exits checkbox' appears. Shouldn't the 'Do not close when command exits checkbox' be presented in the Menu Editor's window as well?

Safe to remove program icons on Trinity Desktop without removing the apps themselves?

by jim_gunn＠yahoo.com

I'm brand new to Linux and just installed the Trinity desktop with Q4OS on a older pc. One thing I am unclear about- are the shortcut icons on the Trinity desktop that came with my distro installation for example, LibreOffice or Thunderbird able to be deleted or removed from the desktop without removing the apps themselves just like on a Windows desktop where the icons are just shortcuts and can be deleted safely without removing the apps themselves?
