Hard disagree. This is awful.

I know I’m broken when the most offensive part of this clip is Jeffrey “catching” a round that still has its jacket.

I’m very interested as well. It’s been almost a decade since I ran Volumio. 👴

Doesn’t “consider [themselves] to be an advanced PC user…”

Picks Arch as their first Linux distro.

Found Linus Sebastian.

Fair assessment – exactly my setup. I should have only used one account like the author. Getting my family set up on individual accounts with “shared” calendars was kind of a nightmare.

I’m still looking for a CALDAV web front-end similar to NextCloud (but not NC). If anyone has suggestions, let me know.

This dude only hurts Linux.

Am I having a stroke?

I’m actually seven right now. 👶

Not a bad recommendation, but I disagree.

Rocket chat is just as heavy (in fact, it federates to Matrix), uses MongoDB, and has steadily pulled features behind a paywall for years. To me, if I’m hosting the service on my own machines and I’m not using their live support, the idea of paying for the privilege of using it is absurd.

Matrix has come a long way, including integrated voice and video chats.

I wonder if they’ll take into account that, had I signed up at (the youngest possible age of) 13, the age of my account would then make me 21. I suppose they can’t really sell that inferred data…

Yes indeed. It’s now failing. 😞

Man, this kind of sucks.

I wrote a nifty script a few years ago that pulls the popularity metric of a song, converts that to a star rating, and writes that to a tag with Mutagen. At a glance I can see the hits. If I like the track, I’ll “love” it (side stepping the need for a personal rating). It’s a system that’s been serving me well for a long time.

Locking down APIs does seem to be the trend. I’m not sure I’ll look to adapt.

Giving money to Spotify is out of the question, but I may pay for Deezer or something.

A general strike is one of the only non-violent levers of power the people have.

It sucks. It probably won’t do anything. But I’ll take this over open war with ICE any day.

Lol, “on about.” Oy!

But yes. Alt-tab.

But, like, that’s just my opinion, man. Run what makes you happy.

Yeah, most likely. The reason is simple: folks want a desktop that doesn’t fight them, has fast window switching, navigation, and task management… and then stays out of the way.

GNOME knows best, though, right? pArAdIgM sHiFt ™! What is a desktop? Hide everything!

For all it’s faults, KDE is much more usable. Xfce is great, too. They treat the desktop/laptop computer as exactly that – not some strange hybrid between traditional desktops, mobile UI, and kiosk GUIs.

Not exactly what you’re looking for, but I host an instance of Audiobookshelf on my LAN. It pulls podcasts via RSS automatically. Handles metadata. Accessable everywhere. Has a web and phone client (again, the phone’s not what you need, but it’s there).

Runs well on a Pi. With docker, you’d be set up in minutes.

Europeans do be like that.

They’ve been itching to do this – and when the ICE/National Guard occupation of our cities didn’t immediately result in an attack on “law enforcement,” there was a sense of frustration. Without a reason, they had to dial up the rhetoric and threats.

Charlie Kirk’s (MAGA on MAGA) death was hammered and shaped to fit their narrative. Now, with a reason, they will punish their enemies as terrorists.

Listen for calls of the death penalty, next.
