+1 for Bazzite. Atomic distro + NVDIA drivers included 👌

If this happens again (which is very likely, I fear):

I've been downloading videos with

https://flathub.org/apps/org.nickvision.tubeconverter (yt-dlp gui)

and watching them with mpv. Still looking for a Tube-Archivist/Pinchflat stlye app that doesn't download the whole channel (or makes me paste single URLs) but has a nice Freetube-like interface for downloading and watching offline ...

Praise the sun! ☀️

You probably know about it but just in case you don't:

https://keyboard.futo.org/

I use this for English and German (not for voice input or anything fancy) and it's perfect for me.

Yeah, it works amazingly well, too. I've been rebasing between Bazzite and Kinoite a number of times in the last months (because Bazzite had some problems recognizing my drawing tablet which has been fixed now) without issue.

Be aware that "everything" is probably untrue, though. Most of the custom ROMs still have a lot of Google stuff that is hard to replace / get rid of even with MicroG etc. (e. g. Captive Portal Check still phones home to Google servers on Calyx OS - if not deactivated in settings). Graphene (only on Pixel Phones 👌) probably comes closest. For detailed analysis check: https://www.kuketz-blog.de/android-grapheneos-calyxos-und-co-unter-der-lupe-custom-roms-teil1/

(in German, use (Firefox?) translation if needed)

https://bazzite.gg/ has a (confusingly named) option for older GPUs, you can select the older series when going through the downloader selection options on the website. I've succesfully used that on a system where the "regular" image for newer GPUs didn't work.

If you can take walks in nature. If you have problems with letting go of intrusive thoughts while doing so, try listening to podcasts / audiobooks. Maybe try excercising, running or something similar?

Not if they just trash your harddrives after you die but I hoard for the same reason 🫥

My exact thought, this is a perfect album cover, so cool!

I use Joplin with their selfhosted beta server. I'm pretty happy with it except for the search which is absurdly bad (ctrl-p searchterm to show all notebooks containing the term,selectt one, then search the notebook with ctrl-f. If this isn't what you were looking for go to ctrl-p again. Search the next notenbook. And ctrl-p again. 🤢)

Nice, looks like it could even do subs via YTDL_OPTIONS.

Never really got used to this but recently discovered

and love it

+1 for Bazzite 💖

Also LocalSend

Are they?

He just does whatever the last person to talk with him was able to talk him into.

Heard the exact same think about Musk a few months back.

Wow, the comments on that Reddit post. Ok.

Yeah, no thanks. We have Pixelfed, let's just make that even better.

I wonder if there's a single person out there who can't see that this sentence / sentiment is complete dogshit (including the thief who said it).
