Google Chrome no longer allows me to create shortcuts to open tabs as windows

When creating shortcuts, there was a checkbox to activate an option to open the tab in a new window as a standalone app (no address bar, ...). This was handy to 'install' Gmail or Slack as 'apps.'



Since few versions ago, I no longer can activate this option. Also, when I create a new shortcut, the icon no longer shows the site's favicon, but rather the Chrome icon.



Is there a way to get it back?

flock() on closed filehandle LOCK_FILE at /usr/bin/apt-mirror

Image
0 I recently upgraded an Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine to 18.04. I regularly use this VM to run apt-mirror at school on their high-speed internet, then rsync these files to my rack-mount server at home for updating multiple computers at home without wasting the tiny amount of bandwidth I have there. Since updating I can't get apt-mirror to run on my VM.
