* "Once this has been fixed, I'll take a screenshot of the pop-up notification message and upload it to https://www.retroarch.com/index.php?page=controller-autoconfig, in order to visually guide people how to find the generated autoconfig file (since this issue killed 72 working hours for me)." - https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/16121#issuecomment-1948100445
 +
* Do you want to open a new issue titled something like: [Menu] Remove "Update Assets", and "Update Controller Profiles"? - https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/16101
 +
* https://github.com/libretro/docs/pull/913
 +
** Todo: The file for https://www.retroarch.com/?page=cores should also be rephrased and a comment should be added that link to both files to make it easy to synchronize the text, I just couldn't find it. Where is it located?
 +
* "The text that you added, "Configuration save on exit is enabled/disabled." does not specify which configuration that is enabled. It should be updated to..." - https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/pull/16144#issuecomment-1902834630, https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/16000
 +
* Also, replace "Menu driver to use. Requires restart" to "Menu driver to use (Restart required)." to make it consistent with entries that says "Restart required" in Settings -> User Interface -> Menu Item Visibility[1]. Also, "Restart" rather than "restart" indicates that Main Menu -> Restart should be used. - https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/pull/16144#issuecomment-1902949762

* Submit this issue to the Ubuntu and Debian package maintainers: https://github.com/libretro/bsnes-libretro/issues/35

## Use case
 +
Games released for handheld game consoles don't have non-network multiplayer mode. So handheld game console emulators installed on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, etc) cannot be used for this purpose. Instead, you have to install home video game console emulators on the mobile device.
 +
 +
For example:
 +
* ''Tekken 6'', distributed for PlayStation Portable (handheld game console), does not have a two player mode.
 +
* ''Tekken 6'', distributed for PS3 (home video game console), has two player mode (called "VS Battle"). It would be possible to play it on a smartphone if a RPCS3 for Android version was released, by connecting two or game pads to the Bluetooth on the phone.
 +

 +
** Enable Configure -> General -> UI -> Show Compatibility List - https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/issues/12023
 +
 +
=====Not needed any more (very stable emulators)=====
 +
Wii/GameCube
 +
* Dolphin
 +
** The Status (game compatibility) column is not available any more - https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13394
 +
*** "Being able to see the emulation ratings is not very useful. There are few 1 and 2 star games left, and that a game is 3 stars doesn't really tell you much about what kind of brokenness to expect." - https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/6569
 +
 +
===Multiboot disk image tools===
 +
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Multiboot_live_USB
 +
* Add incompatible software to https://libreplanet.org/wiki/List_of_software_that_does_not_respect_the_Free_System_Distribution_Guidelines#Packages
 +
 +
Importance: USB drives like Kingston DataTraveler Max, allows really quick system installations from GNU/Linux distribution ISO files. I assume that the FSF office has downloaded copies of https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.en.html, a collection of these GNU/Linux ISO installation files can be copied to a Kingston DataTraveler Max USB drive with ventoy installed.

* GtkHeaderBar: Close button's mouse-over area doesn't extend to top-right pixel when maximized (fitts' law) - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/583
 +
 +
MATE is based on GNOME, and uses GTK.

===Release notes===
 +
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/73.0/releasenotes/ : Please mention that sideloading is discontinued - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1855207
 +
 +
===GUI-blocking issues===
 +
Issues that force you to run commands that might damage your system.
 +
 +
* usb-creator-gtk cause a problem with windows images - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/2038684
 +
** It's useful to evaluate free software on Windows sometimes.
 +
** usb-creator-gtk only lists USB devices for security reasons. Using dd to write ISOs require you to select a /dev/[device], so you have to back up your disk drives first since it's easy to add the wrong device by mistake.
 +
 +
===Script-blocking issues===
 +
This section is also AI related, since GUIs makes it significantly harder for AI to interact.
 +
 +
The issues here are blocking bash scripts to configure the programs.
 +
 +
* workrave: Does not work: gsettings reset-recursively org.workrave - https://github.com/rcaelers/workrave/issues/220#issuecomment-1636831906
 +
* LibreOffice: Most default settings are not added to the setting file (for example, all the AutoCorrect options). So you have to generate them by manually clicking with the mouse pointer, since there are no command line options for LibreOffice to do this. Workaround: The quickest way is to make a patch for your settings that can be applied later. However, that requires GUI configuration.
 +
* [Feature request]: Option to reload settings from the interactive shell #439  - https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues/439
 +
* gnome-language-selector is used by Trisquel
 +
** How does gnome-language-selector reload ~/.pam_environment ? #16 - https://github.com/Vanilla-OS/gnome-language-selector/issues/16
 +
*** https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-selector/+bug/2035044/comments/5
 +
* GLIB (affects gsettings)
 +
** glib-compile-schemas doesn't compile relocatable schemas #562 - https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-desktop/issues/562
 +
*** Took more than 10 hours to finish this bug report.
 +
 +
====Documentation====
 +
* Document how to add custom keybindings with gsettings
 +
** https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-desktop/issues/561
 +
** https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/package-helpers/-/issues/99
 +
 +
====Screen resolution====
 +
* Command line options for monitors.xml management
 +
** [Feature request] gnome-control-center display: Command line options for monitors.xml management - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/2578
 +
** [Feature request] mate-display-properties: Command line options for monitors.xml management #710 - https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-control-center/issues/711
 +
* Use less generic name for monitors.xml to avoid clashing with other desktops
 +
* GNOME: Use less generic name for monitors.xml to avoid clashing with other desktops - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2919

===Macros===
 +
* [https://github.com/autokey/autokey/issues/726 Record keyboard/mouse feature request: Please show how many milliseconds keys are being pressed #726]
 +
** Making a macro to a well known game for speedrun can be made to make world records. Even if using keyboard macros would be cheating the game, it would still be unique (I've not seen a macro being used on any game video on YouTube for example) and may be useful to demonstrate specific stage details.

1: 

## Use case
Games released for handheld game consoles don't have non-network multiplayer mode. So handheld game console emulators installed on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, etc) cannot be used for this purpose. Instead, you have to install home video game console emulators on the mobile device.

For example:
* ''Tekken 6'', distributed for PlayStation Portable (handheld game console), does not have a two player mode.
* ''Tekken 6'', distributed for PS3 (home video game console), has two player mode (called "VS Battle"). It would be possible to play it on a smartphone if a RPCS3 for Android version was released, by connecting two or game pads to the Bluetooth on the phone.

2: Games released for handheld game consoles don't have non-network multiplayer mode. So handheld game console emulators installed on mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, etc) cannot be used for this purpose. Instead, you have to install home video game console emulators on the mobile device.

GUI-blocking issues

Issues that force you to run commands that might damage your system.

  • usb-creator-gtk cause a problem with windows images - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/2038684
    • It's useful to evaluate free software on Windows sometimes.
    • usb-creator-gtk only lists USB devices for security reasons. Using dd to write ISOs require you to select a /dev/[device], so you have to back up your disk drives first since it's easy to add the wrong device by mistake.

Script-blocking issues

This section is also AI related, since GUIs makes it significantly harder for AI to interact.

The issues here are blocking bash scripts to configure the programs.

Computer-assisted language learning (CALL) software: Learning multiple languages through online courses are part of an emerging trend, which in many ways are more accessible compared with in-class courses. However, only proprietary apps exist.

LanguageTool clone

We need a free option to LanguageTool.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LanguageTool

"LanguageTool is a free and open-source grammar checker, and all its features are available for download. LanguageTool website connects to a proprietary sister project LanguageTool Plus, which provides improved error detection for English and German, as well as easier revision of longer texts, following the open-core model. LanguageTool Plus also uses n-grams as part of its freemium business model

LanguageTool web service can be used via a web interface in a web browser, or via a specialized client-side plug-ins for Microsoft Office, LibreOffice, Apache OpenOffice, Vim, Emacs, Firefox, Thunderbird, and Google Chrome. Its web app client can also be integrated on websites."

It would be useful to write plugins to privacy focused chat software, including:

Drug legality

A database that list all classified substances for each country, and an API that enables developers to access it. For example, this will enable developers to build an app that can be used to show which substances that are legal and illegal in a selected country, and the typical penalty for given amounts. This can prevent tourist to avoid risks they might be totally unaware of, or might introduce them to therapeutic possibilities (eg ayahuasca retreats).

FoodData Central: Calculator for custom quantity and combined entries

Feature request: Combined food items (recipies) My Food Data (https://www.myfooddata.com/) offers a web based nutrition calculator that can be used to make recipes (combining food items) and calculate the total nutrient value. For example:

https://tools.myfooddata.com/protein-calculator/170422-169705/oz-100g/1-1/1/100g-100g/1-1

  • 1 oz pea sprouts
  • 100 g uncooked oats

However, the My Food Data API (https://api1.myfooddata.com/) is secret.

Are you planning to make it possible to make recipes from your API as described above, or is this already possible?

Requests

I've sent this message 16 Aug 2015 to [libreplanet-discuss](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreplanet-discuss/2015-08/msg00030.html), and repeatedly to the FSF, RMS:

Chrome Web Store is the official Chrome web browser website for
supported exentions. However, it can also be used to install extensions
to the free variants of Chrome known as Chromium and Iridium (built on
Chromium + improved privacy).

Iridium (unstable) can be installed from:
https://launchpad.net/~strukturag/+archive/ubuntu/iridium-unstable.
Iridiums extension directory is located in
~/.config/iridium/Default/Extensions/.

However, Chrome Web Store do not show the license for the extensions
which makes it hard to verify which extensions that are free or not. You
have to install the extension and manually look into the source code of
each files in the extension directory.

I suggest that the FSF contact Google
(https://www.google.com/intl/en_us/chrome/business/devices/contact.html)
and ask them to add "License(s)" to the default text to the extensions
in Chrome Web Store so we can build a verified free repository in the FSD.

> DBH: I don't want to burden you, should I ask them myself every 3rd month for example?
> RMS: Today I had a discussion about it.  Sooner or later, things will start moving.
