I’m having a hard time figuring out, if these exist elsewhere, but over here, I can buy dried soy shreds, which are really great for pasta.
So, those are roughly meatball-shaped. There’s also smaller one’s which kind of work in sauces like minced meat.
They don’t taste like meat, more like wheat, but they give you the same protein and chewiness and can be kept in a cupboard basically until the end of time.

Wenn beim Angelsächsischen mal wieder das Sächsische durchkommt…
There’s a comic, titled “Loss”, which is infamous, because it’s incredibly fucking depressive. People don’t enjoy being reminded of it. And so, of course, it has become an internet culture / meme thing to do precisely that, but in a sneaky way.
In particular, the comic has 4 panels and an arrangement of characters in a certain, recognizable pattern. So, over time, it’s been reduced ad absurdum to just this pattern.
Well, and in the meme above, it becomes apparent that it’s replicating the Loss pattern, when that fourth panel has the DNA flipped on its side. So, the joke is that we have the pattern-seeking brain for recognizing Loss.
If it helps, the Windows/Linux logic is basically:
Well, and Ctrl, Alt, Shift also serve for alternative characters when you’re typing. And some application or OS shortcuts wildly combine modifiers for more complex keybindings. And of course, some applications just didn’t get the note of how this generally works. I won’t claim, it really follows rules, but yeah, it’s not generally complete chaos either.
I think, what you’re describing used to be a thing, but there’s now a somewhat different, more granular way of rebinding keybindings:
However, it should be said that these will only apply within KDE applications. If you’re using third-party stuff, like Firefox, GIMP, VLC etc., they won’t apply.
If you really want to go hard on rebinding all kinds of keys for any application, you can also do things like these:
As cool as both of these are, and as much as I would still generally recommend picking KDE for these kind of customization possibilities, I wouldn’t recommend overdoing either. You won’t be able to use other PCs anymore…
Pictures are probably better than a thousand words here:
I’m a massive fan of GUIDs, too, but you’d have no protection from rogue instances reusing GUIDs of existing posts…
Yeah, everything you said there is correct.
If you want a somewhat more comprehensive definition:
Funkwhale, Lemmy, Kbin (as well as Mastodon, PeerTube, PixelFed etc.) are pieces of software, which can be hosted on a server and which implement a communication protocol for the federation of social media content.
If someone then takes such a piece of software and actually does host it on their server, then that’s called an instance. Generally, they need to buy a domain name to do so, like “open.audio”, “lemmy.world”, “feddit.de” and so on.
You might be interested in Funkwhale instead.
It’s a more mature piece of software, it does federate and they’ve even put quite a bit of effort into podcasts.
They have a flagship instance at open.audio, which only allows Creative Commons content (to avoid copyright issues when federating).
So, as I understand, if your podcast is CC-licensed, they’d be happy to host yours.
I use Fira Sans and Fira Mono for everything.
Apparently, that will arrive with Plasma 6.
It says "Version Fixed In: 6.0” here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438883
And the last comment in there, does also specify so.
Apparently, this is now part of kdeplasma-addons, so this might be in a separate package, which may not be pre-installed by your distro. I really don’t know, if it means anything, but Nate felt it worth mentioning here: https://pointieststick.com/2023/10/27/these-past-2-weeks-in-kde-wayland-color-management-the-desktop-cube-returns-and-optional-shadows-in-spectacle/
At $DAYJOB, I was evaluating a data collection software and needed some files for it to read. I had some random text files top-level in my home-directory, so I figured, I would just tell it to read from ~.
I expected that it might read directories recursively by default, but I could just stop it, if it does that.
What I didn’t expect, is that yes, it does read recursively, but also that by default, it deletes the files it has read. It had eaten a good chunk of my home-directory when I realized.
Now you might think, it doesn’t just delete the files, it transfers them to a different place, so surely, the data still exists. And you’d be right.
However, while it reads from directories recursively, it doesn’t retain the directory structure. So, the contents of my home-directory were all still there, just completely flattened in one big folder.
I can recommend Starship.
In Dolphin, you can click to the right of the path, like you would in a textbox.
I admit, it’s not the most intuitive method either, but when you hover your mouse there, it does change over to a text editing cursor, shows a caret-like line to the right of the path and will eventually throw up a tooltip that you can “Click to Edit Location”…
I also find it incredible, that there’s no GUI button to edit the path. You have to just kind of know that Ctrl+L does that…
Nah, Alpine is independent. It’s one of the more popular non-GNU/Linux distros.
That one can be realized client-side (just don’t actually pause the stream download, but rather write it into a buffer). No idea, if there actually is a client that implements this, but it is conceptually possible.
I rather meant that with a livestream, people don’t want to be several minutes behind. They want at most a few seconds delay, so they can collectively chat about the things happening in the stream and reasonably hold conversations with the streamer.
What you can do as well, is to just pause the stream when the ad starts and then reload when you imagine the ad might be over…
A big difference is that Twitch livestreams are creating content as reality happens. You can’t skip ahead, you can’t pre-load into a buffer. YouTube would need to take those features away to allow for similarly effective ad enforcement, which would eliminate a significant advantage of VODs.
I’ve basically only watched one video on this (of someone who’s supposedly medically trained, has fibro themselves and published a book about fibro), so you know, don’t think I’m an expert.
But well, according to this video, one common cause for pain in people with fibro is muscle tension. She said something like, what’s normally considered dangerous levels of muscle tension, where you’d actively medicate people in a hospital, that’s normal levels for fibros.
Obviously, you won’t get muscle tension in an exam, except maybe in your writing hand, because you’re not really using your muscles and exams tend to be short enough anyways.
Another suspected cause is that during fight-or-flight, your body releases testosterone, which inhibits, I believe, oxytocin production, which means your body slows down long-term regenerative processes. So, quickly closing up a bleeding wound is on schedule, but making sure your joints are regenerated before the next fight-or-flight situation, that’s lower priority while you’re supposedly still in a fight-or-flight situation.
I’m excited for these, especially with them likely coming for stable Firefox soon, too. My $DAYJOB hands out Ubuntu laptops and every time, we have to scrape off the Firefox Snap, because e.g. saving images doesn’t work and the Downloads directory is in some mystical place somewhere underneath
~/snap/. These APTs will almost restore the usability of other distros…
