OpenSuse (back then the “normal” one, then Leap and now the rolling release Tumbleweed). It just works really well and keeps on trucking. Updated my old machine for ten years through all the openSuse releases without reinstalling. The repositories are very well kept in order and the build service easily provides anything I might find lacking.

Also, I quite like using Yast for system administration. There are many areas that I rarely touch and having a GUI available is super helpful.

Update: today I was able to update to kernel 6.7.5 and the issue disappeared for me.

Yup I’m hit by the exact same bug currently. But I was able to go back to before I updated with Snapper and now I’ll wait until the fix is in the Tumbleweed repos.

But other than that I’m much happier with the AMD than with my Nvidia (on Linux that is). VRR with Wayland on multiple monitors just works without issues. And before this week I never had any issues at all with the 7800XT.

Angry downvotes because people don’t like to hear that a meme language is a meme language.

If you get access to the media files that the streaming service sends you without recording it yourself it’s WebDL. Could also be done by decrypting media you “downloaded” in their app to watch later.

WebRip is basically exactly that: capture audio/video during screening. WebDL is secret magic to tickle the streaming service for the files it sends to the browser during streaming.

I’ve been looking for this just yesterday but apparently all sync info is end to end encrypted anyways and Mozilla has no access to the synchronized data? Is there a reason to self host this but just for the principle of it?

Thanks I’ll keep an eye on that project. I did try pandoc and LyX in the past to ease the pain but typst appears to have the courage to finally let LaTeX be and not build a new wrapper around it.

100% of tarballs that I had to deal with were instances of “pack this directory up just as it is” because it is usually people distributing source code who insist on using tarballs.

7z x to extract makes sense. unzip even more. No need for crazy mnemonics or colorful explanation images. It’s complete nonsense that people are ok with that.

I also don’t see your problems with tar; it does one thing and it does it good enough.

The problem is the usage of the tool which people invent different mnemonics for because it’s UX is stuck in 1986 and the only people who remember the parameters are those who use it daily.

Similar thing for LaTeX: it’s so absurdly crusty and painful to work with it’s only used by people who have no alternative.

//ETA
Also, I don’t want to be mean towards the maintainers of LaTeX. I’m sorry if I made any LaTeX maintainer reading this upset or feel inferior. Working on the LaTeX code is surely no easy endeavour and people who still do that in 2023 deserve a good amount of respect.

But everytime I had to work with LaTeX or any of its wrappers was just pure frustration at the usage and the whole project. The absolute chaos of different distributions, templates, classes and whatnot is something I never want to experience again.

For all I care it goes on the same garbage dump as LaTeX.

I avoid it and use zip or 7z if I can. But for some crazy reason some people stil insist on using that garbage tool and I have no idea why.

tar is just the worst shell command in existence. Why do people still bother with it?

That does indeed help a bit but it still feels very IOS to have menus slide in from the bottom, a back button in the top left and no side swipe menu. But I still enjoy it as my daily driver on Android

It’s alright. Looks and feels like an IOS app, though.

Google can close your email account down at any time for any stupid reason they like and their nonexistant support will leave you standing in the rain without access to years of mails. Switch to a paid mailer with actual support ASAP

I’m glad I quickly stopped “homelab” after my old laptop that I used as a server in a cupboard died. Switched to a rented root server for all my selfhosting needs since.

“Catholic freight depot random city” makes callers pause for a second to think about what they just heard.

Oh that looks delightfully eccentric, I’ll check it out for sure!
