It depends. If you are into deep deep political lore in scifi-fantastic worlds, then you are going to LOVE IT.

It's been years since I have used it. My question is: can we finally setup some default sensible BTRFS subvolumes in the "manual partitioning" mode? Or does it still only work in the "autogenerate partitions" thingie?

Yep, can confirm that too. But I slept through multiple parts of Dune part 2, so maybe it's just me.

I would also have to acknowledge that Halo, Doom, Borderlands... Are focused on being a fun videogame, not a great story. Fallout, The Last Of Us... Already give you a pretty good story to adapt. Very cinematic, if you will.

Obviously it's not everything and you still need a good team.

I support this idea. Moving is the perfect opportunity to classify your stuff into useful and wasteful, specially clothes, shoes, and some older electronics. Recycle and donate.

Also, if you have a phone you can turn any document into a digital one, find manuals online and trash the paper ones, etc.

It's amazing when you suddenly feel lighter, and you didn't know you had all that psychological weight on you.

I may sound like an asshole, but before Linux Mint, I would seriously think to go with Debian with KDE. I don't see any downsides, and there are many upsides.

The Franchise!! HBOmax.

Minor upgrades don't usually come to Debian at all, unless they are fixing some critical vulnerability or something, but that is usually patched over the previous version anyway.

In what sense is DuckDNS unreliable?

I'm a cheap guy, and honestly I got the cheapest Kindle (I believe 2022) and I've been reading books from Calibre without issues.

No other e-reader was as cheap as that, and it... Just works.

It's about colors. I'm not an expert, but there is something about professional color stuff that is still in the works to migrate to Wayland.

And of course for Krita it's quite crucial that colours are right.

 

I know how to do it in the battery section through the GUI, but I'd like to set it up through a command, for automation purposes, and particularly for KDE Connect commands.

 

When I read about Overture Maps like a year or 2 ago, it seemed to me that basically they were going to create a whole new thing from scratch.

Let's be honest, with enough resources, it's easy to see that they could pull off some kind of OpenStreetMap 2.0, where all the issues from OSM are modernised and cleaned up.

What's really going on? Are we getting something soon from these people? What's the relationship with them?

On their website, they say "coming this fall". Are you excited? Scared? What should I think?

I'm trying to feel more comfortable using random GitHub projects, basically.

They don't need to be brilliant, just decent enough.

 

I am talking about this kind of livestream.

It looks nice, with all the different layouts and so on.

 

Is Linux not free software itself? I thought propietary stuff was added downstream.

Am I getting something wrong?

 

So, what I want to do is basically to be able to publish some of my own IR remotes at home to some public database, very probably IRDB. Of course I'd also be using the device for automations and so on, which I know it works great at that. But my main goal is to make it possible for people to not have to buy a stupid remote for some old hardware they have.

From the docs, it seems like it is possible.

Do you have any experience on this?

 

Every time I mention that I like Huberman's podcasts, I get bombarded with comments on how he's basically a fool, a liar, yadayada.

And when I read every link, trying to see if maybe I should ditch his podcasts... all I see is, at most, in very specific cases, that some scientists defend different theories.

Like... wow. Science in a nutshell.

That is specially funny once you actually listen to his podcasts, because he is constantly reminding people that his words are not the literal truth, that he is no cop, and that he is simply collecting some evidence and always asking for people to go research this information, consult their doctor/physician/professional...

Joe Rogan has like a 1000 clips that can give you absolute clues on how this guy is... well... not great. And my guess is that people are associating a big muscular man with another?

Has the podcast claimed that the white male is a superior species or what am I missing?

Come on, what kind of dark agenda does a guy like Huberman have when basically everything that he says can be condensed into:

  • get good sleep
  • do sport
  • eat well
  • go outside ?

Another thing I've seen is many articles pointing out his "bad romances" and other weird personal life details, as if that mattered somehow?

I find the only app in F-droid very lacking, and the couple I tested from the PlayStore lacked many of the technically available controls you can see on IRDB, Global Cache, JP1, etc.

I am seriously surprised there is no open source Android IR remote app that can truly put everything to shame, given that the info is out there. I may contact a friend of mine for a new Android app...

 

I was using the Plasma Vaults feature for the first time on my Linux computer, and it worked nicely (GoCryptFS), but when I wanted to sync that folder on my Android... I just couldn't find the right tool on Android for the job.

How do you solve this problem yourself?

 

The use case is basically so that all my family members we can check that "John has an old laptop collecting dust" or "Mary has this specific tool that I'd love to use for my current project".

It would be awesome if you could also have a private inventory, aside from the "shared knowledge".

So, what do you guys use for this? Maybe it does not have to be self hosted, but I have a sense the best solutions for this use case are.
