Bravo, blazera. It’s always nice to see some concern for the truth on the internet. I mean this very unsarcastically.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen somebody publicly changing their mind on the internet until I came here. Perhaps there is something special about lemmy.
The internet needs more of this. Maybe lemmy can amplify public mind changings like this somehow…
Yep. I read a quotation from this show elsewhere. I thought it couldn’t be right, so I found the show and listened, looking for perhaps some missing context that might soften the quotation a little. No. Just no. No amount of context can ameliorate the terribleness of Lindsey Graham.
I hate news about news. Here is the actual news: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=CWRboGsn-oA
Nintendo makes it as hard as possible to use their computers generically.
Nintendo fanboys: “Thankyou, sir, may I have another?”
You only saw the tabs open on this workspace.
But yeah I don’t have hundreds of tabs open. It is incompatible with my workflow. Only the “tabs” directly relevant to whatever is currently happening in the current workspace are kept open.
A link either gets read or it doesn’t. If I don’t have time to read a link somebody sends me personally, I just tell them that. I don’t string anybody along about a link I know I will never read. I can’t allow for any link backlog. That leads to . . . dark places.
Also, I don’t really use bookmarks either. When I disable search suggestions and use firefox suggest, it leave more space for history. It works so well I don’t really need to bookmark anything. Frequently opened sites make their way to the top on their own.
Is this something you care about? If so, why?
It did last time I tried compiling AOSP. At least on the default settings. After I told the build system not to try building in parallel, I got that number down to 8 gigs. Still way too high. There’s no way anybody could develop AOSP on a phone.
The same applies to Android OS development. All of it. Android requires a very powerful 1000 USD desktop or laptop computer with 20 gigs of ram and 200 gigs of SSD hard drive space just to compile. This is unacceptable.
Meanwhile, mainline phone linux, like dreemurrs archlinux or postmarketos, can be developed using the same phone it runs on!!! All you need is a 20 USD bluetooth keyboard. It is fully awesome. Imagine a world where anybody with just a smartphone and a bluetooth keyboard could be an OS developer!
The exact appearance of the really nice rock is a secret.
(sorry.)
Canada has not been in control of its government for a long time now. This vote in parliament is just the latest indication that this will never change. I officially give up, and am moving to Europe. I have already applied to the university.
To the Liberals, the Tories, and all of their supporters: you made me leave. Please stay the fuck in Canada.
To the rest of Canada: join me.

I like it better when I can hear Navalnyi, and the English captions are quite serviceable.
I didn’t use it as the main post because I thought there might be language rules.
God I hope this is real.
Do you think it is possible for our current level of scientific knowledge to exist in a hunter gather society?
I download opus .webm s,
then use ffmpeg to convert to .opus,
which I'm pretty sure is just ogg.
IDK, works great in quodlibet.
.webm can't be tagged, though.
Tagging is critical, especially replay_gain tags.
Here is my script:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# Youtube actually hosts audio-only opus tracks, but you can only get them
# in the webm container, which many music players, including quodlibet, don't
# know what to do with. This script downloads the track, then converts it with
# zero loss to the opus container using ffmpeg's `-acodec copy` feature.

# Do not raise exceptions, because yt-dlp counts failure of a single
# download in the list as an overall failure, exit code wise.

My brother once shared an rdio playlist with me. I used the firefox dev tools to download all of the songs to my library. A few months later, rdio shut down. To this day, a piece of rdio lives on on my hard drive.
That and you can just download opus from youtube using yt-dlp lol. It’s 100% great. Anybody transcoding youtube audio to mp3 is definitely doing it wrong lol
Aw, gross.
kbin is written in php.
Thanks, but no thanks, lol.
That's a problem with kbin, then.
There are no tags in lemmy.
Lemmy uses the system default for monospace font.
Try changing the monospace alias in /etc/fonts/local.conf:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Font_configuration/Examples#Default_fonts
That's for system-wide effect.
For just firefox, go to Settings > General > Fonts > Advanced and
change the default Monospace font to a monospace font you like.
Source Code Pro and DejaVu Sans Mono are both very good.
