Thanks, I'll try and look for that when I get the chance. I got called away from the computer right after making my post

Ooh, did infinity come to Lemmy? That was my app for the old site for... I dunno, time is weird... a couple of years?
I've been enjoying liftoff over here. It's been solid enough that I stopped looking.
They were talking about the device from the article, when a non-wired remote was a new and neat idea. Also, standardized, long-lasting batteries may not have been as common as we're used to these days.
That's the world where the original engineers decided not to go with an electronic device, so they didn't have customers buying the bleeding edge tech and thinking it had bricked a couple of months after purchase because "did you change the battery?" wasn't a consideration they were used to yet
What show is that?
I stand corrected. I haven't used anything other than proton mail in a while and it works there. I thought it was part of the standard
Oh, hell yeah.
I'll be trying this tomorrow when I get back to the computer. I mostly live in emacs and Firefox and I've been annoyed enough by having to mentally codeswitch to non-emacs bindings when I'm in FF that I've started using eww a lot more.
If you haven't already discovered it, look into orgmode. It's the reason a lot of people come to emacs.
I started by checking
emacs --versionand confirming that it reported 29.1. The file atwhich emacs(/usr/bin/emacs) is not a symlink, it's a bash script that was ultimately runningemacs-gtk, which is a binary in the same directory.If I run emacs-gtk directly, things appear to work, but I get this warning:
This appears to be related to screen reader support. My repos do have packages for at-spi, but I don't reckon that hiding a warning I might see once per reboot is a strong enough reason to install it.
If I run
emacs-x11directly, things seem to work, though if I turn on menu-bar-mode or check the menu with F10 it looks awful.If I set and export EMACS_TOOLKIT to x11 and run the bash script, it seems to take longer to load and spams hundreds of lines in the shell as it announces that it's loading things. I'm not that bothered by long loading times as I'm seldom restarting, but I don't know why it's so spammy when I start it through the script.
I'd like to better understand what's going on. For now, I think I have a working setup again if I just skip the script and run emacs-gtk directly, but I'm sure there's something wrong with my setup, and I hate not knowing things. I'll include the bash script in a reply to myself here.
