When the printer 'ran out of ink' you wound the ribbon back onto the starting spool and ran it through again. The next time you might need to turn it upside down to get any more out of it.

Nah, I'd be like, go on! Do you associate that song with a particular event, person, time or place in your life? When did you first hear it? In what context is it your fave? Have you ever heard it played live? What was that like? Could you ever imagine another song taking its place or is it too sentimental or ingrained into your very being?
Basically a question like "fave colour/song" is often a simple test. The kind of answer you give should indicate whether or not the topic can be opened up or expanded upon or even just indicate if you want to talk to this person at all right now. If you answer "blue I guess", and look completely disinterested or "insert massive pop hit of the moment" and leave it at that, then they know to go about their day or try another topic like "So what about that sportsball game/weather/current event?". But you might give them a nuanced answer that will lead to more conversation.
It is handy to have a simple, 1 dimensional responce if you want to shut down the conversation quickly or direct it to another topic.
0:00 We all know, that GNOME has been one of the best desktop environments providing
0:03 a graphical user interface for the Linux operating system. It delivers a next-level
0:08 user experience that is similar to Windows and macOS. However, there are a few things you can
0:14 do to enhance your gnome desktop functionality. This is where Gnome Extensions comes into play.
0:21 An extension is a software that allows you to take your GNOME customization to the next
0:26 level. By using the extensions, you can customize GNOME Shell,
0:31 add app transitions, as well as additional features like window tiling.
0:36 In this video, I will show you the top 15 must-install GNOME extensions for Linux
0:42 systems in 2024. For demonstration purposes, I choose to use arch linux but these extensions can
0:49 be used on any GNOME-based distribution such as Fedora, Manjaro, Zorin, Pop OS, and more.
0:57 Before we begin, If you enjoy this video, please
1:00 like and help the YouTube algorithm make it visible to more people.
1:03 Requirements The only requirement of this
1:05 video is to ensure you have installed the flatpak package on your Linux system. Then, open the
1:11 terminal on your gnome desktop and download the extensions manager using flatpak. Once installed,
1:19 open the extensions manager. This is a simple tool that allows you to install any gnome extension.
1:26 The user interface is clean and intuitive, with two sections on the top bar, Browse and Installed.
1:32 The Installed section displays all the extensions installed by the user. The "Browser" section,
1:38 allows you to search for any GNOME extension. Let’s start installing gnome extensions.
Astra Monitor
1:45 Search for Astra Monitor and install it. Astra is a monitoring extension for the
1:51 GNOME top bar that helps users track various system performance metrics such as CPU, GPU,
1:57 RAM, disk usage, network statistics, and sensor readings. It offers comprehensive
2:00 monitoring capabilities with detailed information accessible through hovering
2:05 over resources. The interface is highly customizable, allowing users to choose
2:22 what resources to monitor. The extension is designed for optimized performance,
2:27 ensuring lightweight operation without unnecessary resource consumption.
Pano Clipboard Manager
2:37 Pano Clipboard Manager provides a graphical overview of your clipboard history making it
2:43 much faster to find previously copied content, such as text, images, website URLs & more
2:50 You can view the clipboard history at any time, from any app, by pressing shift + super + v on
2:57 your keyboard. So when you copy anything on your system it will be shown here.
3:06 By clicking on any item in this row allows you to copy and paste it elsewhere.
PaperWM
3:16 PaperWM is a Gnome Shell extension that provides scrollable tiling of windows and per-monitor
3:23 workspaces. It's inspired by paper notebooks and tiling window managers, it makes working
3:29 with different applications very easy. Hovering on the left or right gives the preview of an app,
3:36 and clicking on it puts the app into focus mode. By toggling the workspace button,
3:50 you can change the Windows focus mode to the center or default.
MiniView
4:06 MiniView displays an app window like Picture in Picture Mode. Pressing Shift + F12 opens & closes
4:13 mini app View. By holding the left mouse button you can drag the mini window and
4:23 by holding Ctrl and dragging the window with a right mouse button, you can resize the preview.
4:30 By hovering on the Window preview and scrolling
4:33 with the mouse wheel switches to different applications.
4:37 This is my favorite extension that allows
4:39 to monitoring of a specific app while working with other apps.
Quick Settings Tweaker
4:52 Quick Settings tweaker lets you add media controls, notifications,
4:56 and volume mixers to quick settings and remove useless buttons giving
5:00 a brand new look to the default quick settings and making it more functional
5:04 and practical. You can notice the date menu goes vertical and looks minimal.
Privacy Settings
5:12 Along with that installing the privacy settings extension adds a privacy toggle
5:17 that allows you to enable or disable the camera, microphone, and location services.
Apps Menu
5:31 Apps Menu is a must-have extension that categorizes the installed applications
5:37 making it easy to find the app you need based on category.
Places Status Indicator
5:50 Along with that places status indicator, Add a menu for quickly navigating places in the system.
Logo Menu
6:05 The Logo Menu is similar to Apple's macOS menu for the GNOME Desktop.
6:14 This extension provides a simple menu along with the ability to get the icon
6:19 of your distribution on the top left part of the panel for a great look.
Just perfection
6:36 Just Perfection is an excellent gnome extension for customizing the gnome-shell.
6:41 Using this extension, you can tweak things like the dock, notification panel, icons, and more.
6:57 For example, you can enable or disable system animations, panels, clock, app menu & more.
7:12 You can also change the behavior of the workspace preview,
7:15 whether to show a workspace switcher or not, how you want to open the app grid, and more.
Top Bar Organizer
7:26 The top bar organizer allows you to organize the Menu items of the top bar. You can simply
7:32 rearrange all these menu items according to your liking by dragging them with the left
7:37 mouse button. You can even delete the specific menu items by clicking on the three-dot menu.
SpeedUp Gnome Shell
8:03 Gnome 4x UI improvements tune Overview UI to make it more usable. You can increase the size
8:08 of Workspace thumbnails, hide the search bar & show it only when the user begins to search.
8:24 In combination with that, Impatience is another
8:26 extension that helps increase the animation speed of the GNOME Shell
Wiggle
8:44 Wiggle is an extension that magnifies the cursor when the mouse is moved rapidly
8:49 which is extremely useful especially when working with large screen monitors. So
8:56 when you forget the location of the mouse pointer just wiggle the mouse to find it.
Blur my shell
9:08 Installing blurMyShell extends a blur to the dock, panels, activities overview, and more.
Burn My Windows
9:32 BurnMyWindows triggers an app transition when it’s
9:35 opened or closed providing stunning app transitions that may surprise everyone.
Caffeine
10:00 When running an important task that needs to be monitored, use caffeine which prevents
10:05 your system from sleeping. Upon installing this extension, you will see a new toggle
10:10 added to the quick settings Menu allowing you can enable or disable caffeine mode.
DDTerm
10:30 DDTerm is my favorite drop-down terminal extension for GNOME Shell With tabs and
10:35 is compatible with Wayland. This allows quick access to the terminal by clicking on this icon
10:41 on the top bar. It’s very responsive and also provides an option to customize it.
11:03 That's pretty much it, these are the top 15 best gnome extensions that
11:07 you must try on GNOME Desktop in 2024. Let me know if I have missed anything,

Kleiopedia. Named after Kleio the Greek muse of History. Alternate spelling derived from her Latin spelling is Cliopedia but I personally prefer Kleiopedia. She was often depicted with a scroll or a chest full of books.
Holy heck?! Who is this psychopath?! "You must conform!" in this case basically = "You must assimilate!". This is why some version of CRT, at least an overview of the fundamentals, SHOULD be taught in highshool so students can recognise these sorts of policies for what they often are. But the system is hardly going to educate the subjects of its oppression is it, or they might actually recognize and resist policies and practices that are rooted in racism and discrimination. Can't have that!
Yeah, I hate it when things are more convenient, quicker to accomplish, take up less of the day and allow me to do more in less time! If I can't spend more than two hours a day stuck in traffic am I even living!?
It's so shocking?! I'm looking at a Ranger out in the car park right now and trying to imagine something bigger parked out there?! It wouldn't fit within the bounds of the parking space?! Already if there were two Rangers parked next to each other there wouldn't be enough room to walk between them, even if you turned side on :-/ Let alone having room to be able to open the door and get in & out?!
In fact I can see that it's had a flow on effect whereby every other parked car has had to park on the extreme edge of their space to allow room to open the door and get out. If there was one more Ranger anywhere along the line someone would be likely blocked from getting in or out of their car!
Yikes?! A Ford RANGER is considered a small truck to you?? They're part of the growing plague of stupidly large trucks in my part of the world!? :-/ I mean I knew the US had big trucks but I never thought the Ranger would be considered the small alternative?! We're so screwed?! :-(
Wow, I'm amazed that you're having to explain this to people?! I thought we knew this already?? Good on you for taking the time to patiently explain it so clearly for those that somehow missed that memo! Legend! :-)
