On Android you have NewPipe for video and ViMusic/Blackhole for audio only.

You have to install the .apk manually or from f-droid, but they work like a charm.

Happened to me. It was at night, listening to a podcast while I was doing some chores. An ad for a horror movie popped up while I was walking through the corridor with the lights off. You can imagine the heart attack...

I solved it by manually updating all the filters.

There are dumb shorts in Youtube with tens or even hundred millions of views.

I think it is safe to say they keep people engaged somehow.

- Alphabetical App Grid (I don't see how this is not a default thing)

- Blur my shell

- Clipboard Indicator

- Sound output device chooser

- Windows is ready Notification Remover

- Ubuntu AppIndicators (this comes with Ubuntu)

And to make it usable I also purged everything that has anything to do with snaps.

I stopped playing because it is a time sink and also because it becomes more and more like work to me.

I would end up going to bed and dreaming about it the whole night.

It's like the people who can see the calendar in their heads. You ask them about an exact date from 1969 and they'll say, oh yeah, it was Monday.

Or people who don't have an internal dialogue. This is probably the most weird to me because it is common and I can't comprehend how they manage their thoughts.

I've been listening to his autobiography recently.

Fascinating man.

Big for Postman.

Maybe it's a Postman on Mac thing, I've never used it on any other platform.

I only wish Postman didn't freeze when adding a big JSON to a request. If you add it through their interface it freezes for a while in the best case scenario or freezes until you kill it.

Postman on my Mac is now broken because a big JSON (almost 1mb) is stored on one of the opened tabs which makes it freezes on launch. I'll have to purge everything and install it again, thankfully that tab isn't saved in my profile so it won't be there...

I think fixing that is more important that acquiring new companies.

I want to mention Tuxedo Computers and Slimbook which are great.

After trying a Slimbook I don't think I'll buy another brand unless a company like this one pops up. Of course Tuxedo is an equally good alternative but Slimbook HQ is literally 45 min away from home so that's a plus to me.

They make laptops fully compatible with linux, offer great custom support, their designs are pretty nice in my opinion, good specs, quality build, good battery life (except for the "gaming" laptops), good trackpads, etc.

What do you mean?

EU bank transfers are free but they take a day but you also have the option to make it instantly, sometimes paying a small fee like 1€ or so. I have never had to pay, though.

Flexing to see my gains. Yes.

I'm not against children taking responsibilities, helping and working a little bit here and there to earn themselves some money and develop themselves in many ways, but just throwing them into the labour market is going back in time a couple centuries.

Let children be children.

I'm sure this won't fuel any conspiracy theory.

Jokes aside, the last time I saw good content on VICE it was probably during the Russian invasion of Crimea. No wonder they went bankrupt.

Which is bad.

You need to cultivate that kind of personal relations in real life.

RSS in your email client is a bad idea IMO.

I used thunderbird like that a lot but everytime I needed to read or send an email for something productive I'd see that there's a new post somewhere and I'd check it.

This is cringe.

Not really. You can edit PDF with Firefox.

To be honest, all the Twitter drama aside, I find the network more entertaining than ever.

I'm loving this but I don't see any option to change the language.

I asked a fairly simple but elaborated question in English and it did answer correctly with a couple examples of code but translated to Spanish which is kind of weird.

That's why I can't play almost any game, because I'll grind everything, even useless achievements.

At least I have idle games and I'm also working on one which will probably end up in nothing.

It's not free but the US is spending way more in healthcare without getting anything in return.

Meanwhile Ubuntu is making sure that none of its flavours has flatpak installed by default.

Smells like that old MS attitude to me.

Almost nobody cares about COVID anymore, only people with health issues.

Public transportation, malls, festivals, concerts, etc, are always packed. Returning to office won't make a difference.

My coworker's M1 MBP sometimes sounds like a jet engine.

Why would I buy this instead of a Tuxedo or Slimbook?

I don't mind paying more for a laptop from an independent company with linux support, but the price is excessive and I don't even know if what I'm buying is actually good.

There are open source calendars on top of which you could work.

Can't you just import that data into an already existing calendar?

Just to elaborate a bit further.

The current mayor of Istanbul is the politician who could win the next presidential election and he's been sentenced to a few years in prison and banned him from politics because he "insulted some elected officials". His crime was actually calling a few people clowns when they recalled for a runoff of the elections he won. He then won the runoff with a wider margin and now has to be taken down somehow.
