That's a very good question. It was a few years ago, but it's running right now on my computer on Linux.

wuphysics87 ,

There are some gaps in the numbers. That could be the case. Was it for all of the ones you tried to download?

[Resolved] After updating through both APT and the Software Store, I can't play mp4 videos with VLC anymore. The screen goes blank for a second or two then the audio starts playing without the video..

I'm using Debian 12, Ryzen 7 5700X processor, and Radeon HD 5450 graphics card. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling VLC but it didn't resolve the issue. Here's an excerpt from the VLC's log file:...

On arch I would reinstall pipewire. Idk if there's an apt equivalent

Set a stop watch and speedrun it

wuphysics87 ,

I find gamifying a good way to keep my focus. Speedrunning in particular

wuphysics87 ,

May or may not be a formality. Take it and don't sweat it. What's the worst that will happen? It'll rip your leg off?
