It’s not colonialism to prefer one culture (or certain cultural traits) to another. In fact, it’s natural.
I’ve lived in a number of countries and each had their own distinct cultural norms. Each has had aspects which I perceived as either positive or negative.
Add it all together and I definitely have preferred certain cultures, not because they are “better” but because they more closely match my own preferences. Other people would prefer different cultural norms.
IPTV is generally for live TV channels rather than on-demand.
Not a raspi, but I had similar issues on my opensuse HTPC which turned it to be related to issues with (or missing) media codecs in Firefox.
After (re)installing all of them, it worked like a charm.
It’s been years since I had to deal with MATLAB licenses, since basically everything in scientific computing/data science uses Python these days!
Yeah that’s basically what I did too.
I just installed dash to dock and made the icons quite large, then rebound a button on my air-mouse to the super key (to bring up the dash). I also installed Just Perfection and used it to hide the top bar unless the dash is open.
90% of the time, I’m just using Firefox, so I don’t need anything too fancy.
I’ve heard that the focus is on the ARM versions (so maybe they are much more developed) but I tried the x86_64 version on my HTPC recently and it was super barebones.
In the end I found Gnome with a few extensions to be a better solution for my needs
And even then, it just meant that whatever solution they thought up worked first try.
With experience you get better at finding good, working solutions quicker, but there will always be times when things take a bit of iteration.
I know right? I always bought Logitech specifically because it always ‘just worked’ everywhere for me.
I can’t check at the moment, but that sounds like something ‘Simply Perfection’ would be capable of.
It’s essentially an addon specifically for tweaking the appearance of gnome stuff.
