I don’t want to own a copy of James Cameron’s Avatar The Way Of Water. I have a 4k BR Player and a libredrive for ripping and wouldve just purchased it if I cared to ever watch it again

Sometimes I only want to watch a movie once, my partner was dragging me to the new one and I hadn’t seen the second one so I needed context.

I rented a movie the other day online that wanted real full fat Google chrome to be able to stream on Linux. I installed it in a sandbox, locked it down right, then promptly uninstalled it 3 hours later when the movie was over. Never again.

Fandango at home, for anyone wondering which service absolutely requires full fat Google chrome

I burned SM64 to a cd the other day because I was testing the psx port (doesn’t work on real hardware yet). I use optical media all the time.

1. No point in arguing with someone who doesn’t care enough to think critically about the situation. If you play chess with a pigeon, the outcome of the game doesn’t matter. Its still gonna shit on the board and strut around like it won.

2. I know you didn’t ask, but find you some green spaces. Depression isn’t a choice, but choosing to be depressed in a less depressing place is. Control what you can.

Who are you and where did you get this picture of my cat?

Nextcloud talk does not support E2E on mobile, web client only. I was just setting it up the other day and was very surprised when I saw this.

I enjoyed BROCKHAMPTON for the brief period the group existed. Its some kind of unholy combo between a rap group and a boy band and I love it. I’m pretty sure they’re all queer.

This is a fantastic approach.

I wanted to learn web-dev so I built a blog and a web hostable 5e character generator. Ended up learning authentication, HTTP stuff, database management, and learned CSS and HTML to handle the frontend (backend is Python).

They’re not production ready, there’s not even a proper server built in, just a basic wsgi dev server, but I’m proud of it and it taught me a ton!

I had configured this manually (incorrectly) in Arch a while back to have my home dir be on a separate encrypted drive.

Turns out the main drive didn’t get the memo and still had a home folder which worked fine, I thought it was working so I promptly forgot about it. Meanwhile the encrypted drive (which had only ever been unlocked that day and never again) had maybe 10 files on it that I didn’t even know it had until I swapped the drive into a different PC.

Flash drive are usually Kinda terrible, especially at the Wii’s USB2.0 speed. I’d consider an SDXC card. I use a partition on my 512GB SDXC for my games with heavier assets (lol @ heavy wii games, like why?) to improve loading speed. The wii’s SD slot is significantly faster than its USB ports.

If you use a big SD like that, you don’t need to partition it, I only do that because I also use that card in other consoles and like to keep the data separate.

Opinion:

I think bookshelves look better when they’re full of books that are clearly being used, rather than a sterile layout that implies those books are nothing more than decor.

My ex-partner had her bookshelf sorted with “perfect disorder”. No two tall books touching, no two red books touching. As chaotic as a bookshelf could possibly be, with a pointed disregard for series or even genres. 100% vibes Based disorganization.

I hated that fucking shelf. I swear it nearly gave me an aneurism trying to find anything on it.

Little emulation powerhouse, I love my Wii.

Jailbroken to hell and back with half of the library on an SSD and all the emulators I want (except xemu, but like, that’s a pipe dream the thing isn’t that powerful).

I recommend literally everyone who has a wii in their garage or attic, pull it out and spend some time jailbreaking it, the things are really great consoles, bonus points if you have a CRT for it.

Actually I do, since KDE and Gnome don’t support X11 anymore.

Dogma was the wrong word, I’d already figured that out, which you can see from the context of the other responses that came in 12-17 hours before yours. Dog piling is dumb, stop it.

I comfortable and stubborn, I also feel like a full idiot. Ive been using hardware that doesn’t work on Wayland for years, so when I booted up may compatible laptop and moved to set up a barebones sway install and encountered EGL errors and the display manager can’t even find my monitor I think im allowed go be a little bit bitchy about it When even after 15 years Wayland is immediately showing me it wasn’t ready for the mainstream. Sure it works when it’s already in place, but I’ve NEVER successfully rolled it out myself until yesterday.

I want to learn, really, genuinly. The Security issues in X11 are glaring, and I’m tired of using insecure display server Software from the late 80s that expects me to be on a mainframe.

I want to change. I could also roll X11 in my sleep. I have quite a bit of instinct to unlearn.

It sounds delicious but the pineapple would make it a nogo for me :(

I have a latex allergy and cross react with basically all the fun foods.

Corn and rice are my saviors. Please don’t talk mess about my corn.

Idk if Dogma was the right word, actually it was probably the complete wrong word. I just feel like a noob again and these error messages don’t mean anything to me.

I want to like Wayland, I really do. I’m just having trouble adapting after using X11 for the last 20 years.

If anyone has any suggested reading for making the switch easier for someone who’s deeply ingrained in the X11 way of thinking, I’d super appreciate it.

Edit: Changed a word since none of you can focus on anything but that I used the wrong word.

Nothing that it lacks I’ve just never touched Wayland because my hardware hasn’t supported it (I use ewaste machines primarily) and I’m fighting wayland, sway, swaybar and basically the whole thing because I want everything to work the way it did with x11 but it doesn’t and I’m resistant to change.

I’ve been bashing my head against sway for days I just wanna go back to i3 😭
