Tech Tips Tuesday 33: AppImages, KDE & LXQt
TTT 33.1: AppImages? Ever Wondered How to Get ‘em into your Applications Menu?
Wonder no more. We will talk through it today.
All you have to do is use the AppImageLauncher, which you can install on any major distro.
If you are running a debian/ubuntu based distro, type
sudo apt install appimagelauncher after you add the PPA to your sources list, this way:
Sudo add-apt-repositiory ppa:appimagelauncher-team/stable
Sudo apt update
If on a Fedora-based distro type either
Sudo dnf install appimagelauncher
Or
Sudo rpm –i appimagelauncher-x.x.rpm after you download it and cd into its directory
If you are on an Arch-based distro, type:
Sudo pacman –S appimagelauncher
Once it is installed, open the AppImageLauncher appor double click on an AppImage file, and choose to Integrate and run after you tell it where to store your AppImage files from now on. Integrating instead of simply running it once will give you an app menu entry moving forward. Cool stuff.

As we begin our move toward Christmas, remember that this is still true of the Lord. He will never break the brokenhearted, He will gently protect the ones who admit to being at their rope’s end, and He will come through for you. Truth. This passage is from Isaiah 42, and is about the Messiah, or the Servant of the Lord, whose commission it is to set the world to rights. Jesus is still about that work for and in us and the world. Find comfort in that Truth, today.

TTT 33.2: Plasma 5.26.3 Release is Live, What’s New?
They fixed lots of stuff for the plasma wayland session to make scaling work better for xwaylnad apps, and firefox app issues where your mouse gets stuck as a grabbing hand until you move a tab.
An x11 regression that caused maximized windows to be forced to be redrawn improperly when using a scaling factor
Also fixed a glitch where if the top right-most pixel were clicked, the window would be closed, as well as screencasting issues
Among others...

TTT 33.3: LXQt 1.2 Released
What is LXQt? It is a lightweight desktop environment based on the Qt libraries. This is ideal if you either need supercharged performance or have a very low spec system that you want to breathe new life into.
What’s new?
File manager issues fixed in both x11 and Wayland sessions
Ctrl+D shortcut in file manager will deselect all items
Enhancements for the panel
Bidirectional rendering in QTerminal
And more... Sounds like some nice quality of life changes to me.
