It's just mp4 dumbed down which itself is mkv in stupid form.

I had so many problems and had to constantly manage other distros before Arch that it was a lot of anxiety. Everytime new release of popular linux distro I knew it was gonna break if I tried to upgrade. Almost centrainly. For fear of that I had frankstein monster distro for work using lts version full of weird ppas with a more recent kernel and some more recent software that I need because everything was always old all the time. It was horrible to maintain and keep working.

Arch is just simpler, easier and much more stable. It's just pacman -Syu all the time, have fresh software, recent kernels for the hardware improvements which is extremely important for when you buy new laptop and overall never crashes. It's just a matter of reading the news, sometimes change a config that got deprecated, or replace some software that got abandoned or now there's better alternative, etc. Sometimes things get some regressions for some weeks until things are bug reported and fixed upstream and eventually reach the system, but that's waiting some weeks or rarely months. There's always alternative to get involved in helping fix the problems with bug reports and patches if needed, but that's extremely rare and only if you really are desperate.

Anyway, those problems were much worse on other "stable" distros, because if there's something seriously wrong on the system you are only lucky to get fixes after a major release which may happen only once a year.

If the system is really critical and cannot fail me during work week I delay updating to the weekend sometimes. Even if I need to it's just a matter of evaluating the risk. You do pacman -syu and see what's comming. If it's just some apps updating then it's ok to do it. If it's core system stuff like kernel, systemd, dbus, graphics drivers, maybe I'll avoid it.

Overall it's simpler and easier because there's really only 1 or 2 things to keep in mind and all the rest just falls into place.

Using archlinux for more than 15 years on personal machines and maybe 5+ years on work computers.

Great for them doesn't mean great for you.

Someone needs to really break this one down.

They have been very active fighting the chat control proposals that keep coming, haven't really seen others being so active about it besides them. This is really bad.

By law, simply making it illegal as is being worked on.

Let's just make the worse possible and then wait to see what happens. Only way to wake up from the AI nightmare. If we survive long enough.

Typical holywood and their sequels. Just pray they don't remember to retrofit a prequel in there.

I really thought this was some anal analogy for something...

Usually for early stuff I just wouldn't sleep at all.

Here it rained that, everything yellow, then I regretted not cleaning it, but after 4 days and many people already having cleaned theirs, it rained yet again full of yellow sands and made everything dirty again. I felt really successful.

Some random one that appeared out of nowhere for mac only, seems the be from some company and because of that people are hyping the shit out of it.

Many places that never mentioned the other more known and editors like helix now suddenly are mentioning this one. It smells as a huge ad/marketing campaign. Not sure what the plans are for monetisation and the business plan.

Gotta type first. Everyone knows thats the bottleneck for productivity.

Just let the AI create its own poetry about that. Ain't they selling us the idea that it can do anything and humans are useless and deprecated now?

We're really getting deep in the worst timeline and no way back. Nice.

Why every TOTP app default uses SHA-1 hash encryption?

I use Aegis as my 2fa. Today on new token creation I observed that there's hash function set to SHA-1, later checked all my tokens and the result is same type of encryption used for all. So I have edited all my tokens to SHA-256 as a result my totp doesn't authenticate. Do I have to rescan my tokens for updating to SHA-256 or...

I read the other day something about being a limitation that google official app only supports that and all the other are forced to use the same to be compatible.

Also you can't change it on your side, a server and the part tou have in your authenticator need to be in sync. There's no point to change only on your side if the server was not configured to also use the same settings I guess.

Discord is still broken even with that bridge. But that's the only I found not working so far.

devfuuu ,

I have it all installed. Discord native, discord flatkpak, vesktop. With vesktop you loose microphone sound auto detection and krysp. But yeah, sharing video works there also on the browser like firefox, but it's a tradeoff of the rest.

devfuuu , (edited )

Maybe it works better than flatpak? It's basically the same thing. But I'm not gonna install snap just to try it.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

devfuuu ,

Fuck all programming puzzles. I refuse them.

True hommies hate them too.

Been using mullvad for at least 3 years, no major problems so far.

Currently I'm not using it so much and my subscription ended 2 months ago, so I'm using the free version of proton which is good enough for the basics of using public wifi.

devfuuu ,

I'd like to say that it's useless but after experiencing dropping a full latte on my thinkpad some time ago and the magic drain holes working properly and the laptop surviving afterwards makes me really appreciative of the feature.

Israeli Weapons Firms Required to Buy Cloud Services From Google and Amazon ( theintercept.com )

Google and Amazon are both loath to discuss security aspects of the cloud services they provide through their joint contract with the Israeli government, known as Project Nimbus. Though both the Ministry of Defense and Israel Defense Forces are Nimbus customers, Google routinely downplays the military elements while Amazon says...

Which was a wildly successful marketing campaign since we are still talking about it.

Similar to "Got milk" or stuff like that, forever in the human consciousness.

When your school life ends and you realize you'll never have 3 months vacations ever again in your life and will only have rest again after 47 years, if you live that far...

I've seen enough Criminal Minds to know what's going on.

Newpipe is getting updates on fdroid again and seem like will be getting updates for the foreseeable future as the issue stopping it is solved. ( lemmy.sdf.org )

Also on an unrelated note anyway to remove live from your subscribed channels update field ? Some channels are filling it with live so i have to really scroll down to see my video feeds and can't find a setting to switch it off. Newpipe didn't used to add live in your what's new feed of subscribed channels, related pic .

Just glad that the comments not loading is now fixed.

First thing to turn off on the keyboards. That and the swipe bullshit.
