Today's arch experience : upgraded after 6 months or so. Yeah, had to upgrade signatures first, had to remove manually conflicted stuff, and that's it. Works, as ever.

Now yesterday I tried installing stremio on my wife's ubuntu. Gosh wtf, how do they expect any normal consumer going through gît and stack' just to install that piece of crap.

Stremio, for the "illegal" part of it, is just torrenting without sharing. It's awfully convenient, but you're ditching the very point of torrents with it.

AFAIK, the only limitations by using it as a guest is the inability to save movies... Which is extra stupid since you are torrenting them, but hey, it's free so you are the product.

If what you are looking for is a nice interface to all your content, Kodi is the OG here.

When I work with Ardour professionally, I always make a donation on a per-project basis, depending on budget of said project.

It is truly Pro Grade software, it deserves it.

And if the budget is small, I do i small donation, easy :)

Help others achieve theirs

Not my idea, my SO : we all shared what we'd like to do in the future, so that everybody is aware of it and may find opportunities to help or support.

Don't forget that other contraption : for "those" we have "celles" + "ceux" = "celleux" (and probably celle + celui into cuielle or something)

Then let's have fun with everybody : "toutes" and "tous" is an easy one - toustes !

Checking wikipedia on the matter, TIL that until the XII century French had neutrals "al" or "el", and these are proposed for a comeback

I am sincerely 100% for the transformation of language towards eradication of the default masculine and the new pronouns, but changing habits is hard.

Thinkpads. I'm not sure one can ever have enough of them tho.

Music : Quobuz - buy it, download it, it's yours. Books : ebooks.com - same [EDIT:] if you buy within their "DRM free" selection.

Voyager app shows age of accounts if new, in bright yellow. So when I notice someone new interacting like an articulate human being, I am extra nice to them, and if not, I vigorously ignore it and move on.

Uh? What outage? When?

It's the only way of having a truly "popular" army, one you can't have to do your shortsighted near-term political objectives, but will only really stand to defend their own.

There are many pitfalls in such endeavours : the first not having an entire brainwashed target population for service (no, I'm not going to name names: there are just too many), the main second is having both alternatives possible for true pacifists & no easy way of avoiding it / having it too easy through class or education etc.

Belgium used to have a choice of 1 year military or ...2 years civil service. I think it was fair, if you really can't stand to bear arms, go lift gurneys and wash hospitals floors for 2 years.

In any case, it is always better than a "professional" army where (mostly) clueless kids exchange their literal lives for a salary, some form of job security and stuff.

 

While I subscribe to a lot of c/, still I have favourites I want to check in often; as such, the list is too long and not practical tu scroll down and I usually end up just searching the name instead

I would appreciate a placeholder for favourites in the sidebar

Please? Thanks for all the great work!

 

Besides Marcan resignation, not much on other recent turmoils, or, more importantly in my view, the use of "Thin blue line" in the language of the anti-rust dev

 

Following the R4L debacle "you are cancer, you are the problem, we are the thin blue line", another maintainer steps down from the Linux Kernel

 

Update : more games!

 

The link right here goes to 40:02 of Proton' boss on the TLE channel about Linux support, where a Drive Client is deemed so difficult to achieve that they don't even have a roadmap for it. Nor is the word "Linux" featured anywhere on proton's pages about Drive.

coughdropboxcough

If I believe what I see on Lemmy, 99% of users here are on Linux, and the 1% remaining probably are just waiting on a Drive Linux Client to make the switch, right? Right?

Please take the survey and maybe mention politely our deep sorrow and profound distress.

A "natural language query" search engine is what I need sometimes.

Edit: directly reachable with the !ai bang

 

Transitioning to PM (and generally speaking, to Proton For Everything) from Gmail, I was following the manual when I realised that PM wanted to replace my privately-owned, with mailbox service included, mail address.

What I've been doing for 15 years was hide a gmail adress behind my own domain name (quality of apps, quantity of storage, general user friendliness...); people would still see me as me@me.me, but I had the convenience of that google service while writing"as" me@me.

It also offered me a layer of safety, since downtime does happen, and hopping to the poor roundcube webmail interface of my hosting company allowed me to keep business as usual. Believe it or not, google has failed more often than that regional service provider. lol.

Now to the question: Am I right to understand PM will dutifully catch all emails to me@me.me, the DNS settings will kill my old-school IMAP mailbox to push them towards me@proton.me, and I will have to commit to trust Proton 99.95% (their current SLA for customers like me)?

Will I loose that last line of defense, Roundcube Webmail straight from my private provider?

Thanks is advance. For obvious reasons, I'm not on twitter, reddit & all that.
