I have never understood why these things aren’t removable by default. Especially when it’s something that some users will literally never interact with, not even a single time. Why not make everything optional? I don’t get it.
I removed this button with userchrome.css on day 1, but … I really shouldn’t have to.
Thanks for sharing.
As a somewhat related thing that others might find useful, here are my shortcuts to get my Varmilo keyboard media keys working with useful functions instead of the default stuff. I’ve got these set up as custom shortcuts in KDE, but they should work in any context:
Next track
dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.spotify /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player.Next
Previous track
dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.spotify /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player.Previous
Play-pause toggle
dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.spotify /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player.PlayPause
You can replace Spotify in the destination parameter with any MPRIS-capable program. To find out what’s available on the dbus and get the exact name, use this command:
dbus-send --session --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus --type=method_call --print-reply /org/freedesktop/DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.ListNames
If you ever wonder why the people you know seem to be better friends with each other than with you, or why they look away while talking with you, or why they always seems to excuse themselves after interacting with you for only a very short time, this post is why.
Blizzard make money extraction software now, not games. The lifecycle of their products starts with a complicated system of overlapping, interrelated components like events and currencies and battlepasses and sales and shops and services and items and subscriptions, and then they dress it up to look like a game.
