Hi, I'm trying to launch a .jar through the "open with" menu, but i can't seem to find the JRE when I go to "show installed applications". I've tried installing OpenJDK and Open JDK 25 SDK Extension on the Discover package manager, but neither is showing. I've also tried sudo apt install default-jre and it isn't showing up either. All three of the different installs seem to work successfully, so that isn't the issue.

Opening the .jar with command line works fine, but i'd like to be able to just double click .jar files and launch them from Dolphin without command line. Am I doing something wrong here? Thank you.

Three years with this company, and I finally quit a few weeks ago. The final straw for me was being threatened by a customer, then called slurs. Said customer got the boot, but afterwards, only one person on the shift asked me if I was okay. The store manager didn't either. That was enough for me...I finished my shift out, and then quit.

I used to really love this job. I love the vibes of a coffeehouse, and I loved most of my coworkers. I met some of the best people I've ever known here, and at the other stores I've worked at. But I've learned that Starbucks as a company doesn't care about you, or your coworkers, or your boss(es), or even the customers.

That "simplified menu"? Nah, it's all chasing trends and easy money. Good drive times? You better get them or you'll lose labor, which makes your times even worse, and creates a death spiral. "Customer connections" and a quality product? They want people in and out of the store in minutes.

Starbucks takes young, idealistic, and caring people, and it chews us up and spits us out. It is not normal for a place to go through four store managers in two years. It's not normal for you to have panic attacks in the back or have customers throw things at you. You deserve better! We all do. And the thing is? Looking at jobs now, basically everywhere starts at the same or higher than Starbucks, and is way, way less taxing on you and your health.

Please don't do it. This job isn't worth it. Leave while you can because this is a sinking ship, and the rot is at the core of the company. It's only gotten worse and worse over the last few years, and it isn't going to get any better.

Preferably with no forced AI stuff. Open source/not on the Play Store is a plus. Thank you!

How!?!???? This man is a wizard

Not to be alarmist, but today I checked out my Amazon purchase history (yeah, I know, I hate Amazon too) and I found that items I purchased in bulk two months ago in preparation for inflation have already increased in price by several dollars. I'm not talking 1 or 2 percent, this is like...a $33.89 item is now $38.34. An increase of 13%! Some items have stayed stable, but most have increased anywhere from 5-15% since early February.

This is going to be bad, y'all. Oil shocks have predated every single recession in the last century. They're the single most reliable predictor of a recession. And because oil tankers take 2-3 months to get from Point A to Point B, there's significant lag time before supplies dry up. Not to mention, 45% of global urea production (necessary for industrial fertilizers) comes from the Middle East, as we're quickly approaching planting seasons. Inflation for food is probably going to surpass 20, even 30% by the end of the year, and through next year. If you can buy in bulk, you need to, right now.
