GHiLA

A summary of the standard mastodon front page:

1. News report about Trump
2. The temperature in Sudan
3. The travel trajectory of a plane carrying people you’ve never heard of, going somewhere you’ve never heard of.
4. A penis
5. Ai art of Bart Simpson and a worm from Dune
6. An AOC quote
7. Furry porn, diaper optional
8. A Linux distro professing a new update
9. Someone’s Chaos Space Marine (it actually looks really nice and they really took their time)

I like it in a flea market kinda sense but, I mean, come on, man.

installs both

Now… fight for my amusement.

This mechanic voted for Harris.

This mechanic is also never worried about anything. Republican or Democrat, your car breaks down all the same, and I’ll be waiting with a bill that doesn’t give any sort of a shit about inflation as you’re all well-aware.

Get a pet.

There. Now go to work or it dies.

Consider this practice for children.

Headscale worked for me, but I get the non-tech saavy friends part doesn’t quite jive with it as a solution.

Still, anyone wanna ditch Tailscale and only use it for hosting sites across proxies? Headscale is great.

I don’t get the rush or the need.

Everything trickles down here anyway. If you’re ONLY on Lemmy and Mastodon, you’re still getting way more actual news than the average joe. Popular, shmopular.

I’m trying to remember a time in the last thirty years where something becoming popular made it better. It’s usually the opposite.

Pick an instance

Hit up all

giant penis

That’s why. That’s the reason.

but you could review the instance beforehand…

Is Jimbo Normalman going to review the instance beforehand? Lmao.

All that bridge stuff has me interested. I’d just like to put all of my chats in one place. Matrix seems like the solution for that. Just bridge everything lol.

If your phone is fully supported and not on the fringe of whatever project your interested in is, you’re not in much trouble most of the time.

I’m not really that sort of user, so I have no idea. I use arch and XFCE but have toyed with Budgie and Cinnamon in the past as potential replacements for xfce, and while I liked them, they didn’t… feel right.

Solus was the originator of Budgie, Manjaro used to have a community spin. I’m not sure who’s responsible or pushing it these days, but it is similar in that it’s a gnome3 based, traditional desktop with hardly any outside dependencies outside of itself.

Try Budgie

Xfce4.

y tho

It’s inexpensive on resources while leaving me nothing to really… need extra, I suppose. It’s old so there’s thousands of themes and ways to set it up, and it just feels like home. The speed of the animations and defaults to everything has a very stock Windows XP feel to the desktop despite it looking like nearly anything. The system doesn’t get in the way of programs from other desktops or setups in mind and always steps aside.

It’s software.

You could install it on a server and run a private room for your family(my usecase).

Nazis also meet in dark alleyways. Should we ban dark alleyways? No, we should probably illuminate them and decorate them a little.

It is quite a beefy and roided dispute, imo.

My issue with the dispute is that it has jack shit to do with Linux, Foss or the open source community and the consequences felt aren’t against the people persecuting.

It’s a missed shot. The Russian fuckarchy doesn’t care if they get to contribute to Linux, or if they ever get to again, if they even know or care to notice in the first place.

The entire Linux community in Russia gets to suffer so a disapproving man in the Netherlands can wave his finger disapprovingly.

Is it worth it? Worth what? No one gets anything.

You don’t need sanctions. I’ve seen you petty fucks fork projects over a font.

I use Jellyfin and Finamp and they work fine. All the old navidrome and airsonic solutions seem to be dead, and I never liked Funkwhale. Who wants all of their music in encrypted block storage?

I also like the quality bump. When I’m not streaming, my music is in FLAC on a DAP with some high quality cans. I can’t get that with Spotify on a phone, and I camp and hike a lot in areas without cell service, so having it with me is a plus.

Music sits in between storing movies and books. I have less than 2TB in total but the amount of albums is more than the amount of films that I have, and that’s 7TB+. Music, even FLAC, isn’t terrible on space, unless you’re a 24-bit fiend.

Corrected. Firefox is less secure than Chromium-based browsers.

And if you had that in your butt the whole time, you should’ve gotten it out earlier.

You’re wrong

Source: same as yours. My butt.

I’m fragmenting my devices more and more.

I recently bought a cheap mp3 player, quit streaming, found new piracy routes for music, back to basics. Still use Spotify for browsing and finding new bands. All good.

I use a kindle and read ebooks a lot.

At the rate phones are going, I’ll have a digital camera and a dumb phone soon.
