  • Blender. Maybe not everyone needs to try it but it it's great if you like 3D.

    I can suggest everyone to try Bitwarden if they don't have a password manager yet. I use Pass now (because UNIXTM) but was a Bitwarden fan before.

  • Most people in my media classes seem to be so obssessed with the content of social media as opposed to the systems of social media. A lot of other students and professors are only interested in alternative content rather than alternative systems. They talk about the "algorithm" as some kind of sentient being instead of something programmed by people. It's a weird shift in media studies going from concerns over systems to content.

    Another one is how people will only watch things that are on Netflix or whatever the popular streaming app is now. Some people have asked me for film suggestions but when they find out that it's not on Netflix, they lose interest even if I provide them with a link to it from archive.org or other very special places.

  • Having less of the perfectionist mindset and more of the "80% quality". Bad experiences from procrastinating helps you learn too.

  • Matrix but then I realized I only used it for the bridges so now I use Beeper instead. RIP my Matrix server which only served two people.

  • I still have my 150GB free account from Storj which I use for some backups so I can't speak from a paying customer perspective. From my experience, it's okay -- never really had downtime (at least I never noticed) and I couldn't say anything negative about it. It does have a "per segment fee" so just be aware of that.

  • Been using this for a while now just for the Gruvbox theme lol. IIRC, it defaults to DDG results.

  • st. LukeSmithxyz's fork specifically.

  • StarCraft II made transitioning to League of Legends easy. I also played a lot of Kovaaks which made my aim generally better in FPS games and it helps with osu! too.

  • I really want to say Gandi but they charge too much now and removed the free mailboxes.

    Anyway, I'll vouch for Netim. Their prices are similar to (old) Gandi and they have a mailbox too. I'm looking into Spaceship for some other domains because they're really cheap.

  • X11. I heard NVIDIA is buggy on Wayland. Also, I've never really had much problems with X11 and my system setup.

  • I've kind of gotten used to the first issue already. I don't know if I can switch to the non-DKMS drivers now that I'm using the LTS kernel though.

  • This is configurable by the admins. We can choose between "Local" and "All" as the default listing.

  • lol i love these edits

  • I see. I'm guessing this is only for v0.5.0 alpha because I don't see these options in the v0.4.2 release.

  • How long are they cached for? I still have cached images from over 2 months ago.

  • This sums up the NLE situation on Linux pretty well. I personally use Resolve and I wouldn't have touched Linux if it wasn't available on this OS. As you mentioned, an NVIDIA card and the Studio license are pretty much mandatory for a good experience.

    I've tried LW before but I never really liked the workflow. I don't know if they're still 720p locked on the free version.

  • I'm not from the US and I tried requesting for one (NCMEC credentials) and this is what they told me:

    if your company or site is located internationally, we are unable to register you at this time

    The CSAM scanning tool didn't require NCMEC credentials back then. At least that's the context I'm getting from this short thread in 2021.

    I also tried looking into other tools like PhotoDNA but it also isn't available in my country.

    edit: just to add, the blog post you linked is old (2019). They changed the UI. If you log into the Cloudflare dashboard, it looks like this:

    And yes, they do require a 30 minute Zoom call according to the email exchange I had with the NCMEC.
