I’ve seen many articles, comments and videos praising mint for being friendly to users coming from windows. It looks nice and I’ve been impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness of their forums - if I switched on my laptop I would try mint first.
if the music is older, and not from the US, it’s often not on spotify. Versions matter too - even for some mainstream bands their B sides/acoustic/live versions just aren’t on spotify or youtube. Album metadata for spotify is garbage too - it just isn’t an adequate replacement for a record collection.
I do use a spotify subscription, but for me it’s a tool for playlist generation and music discovery.
Also audio quality, as others have mentioned.
I certainly haven’t figure out how to be happy without being grateful. And I’ve noticed comparison seems to serve little purpose other than to undermine gratitude.
I have custom firmware on my 3ds so it was as easy as installing the dumper cia and running it. Here’s the qr code I used from the github link to the cia.
I was gonna do the quiz it mentions here but it’s a 404 http://exchristian.net/3/
Cool article though - thanks for sharing. I wanna read thst Fitzgerald book now.
Edit: book was legit. First one is called Nailed and it goes through 10 myths about historical jesus. Absolutely fascinating.
Agreed, I would hope that along with the new policy that the enforcement savings were put into changing the behaviour. Interesting that fentanol test rates are going up, and deaths are also up 5%. Wonder if the presence of fentanol in their opiod supply has increased. That’s a very solvable problem, if people are willing to go full 🇨🇭
Sound advice.
Custom curors that animate at rest and during loading so you’re not sure which part of the curors clicks, and also not sure sure if something is being loaded or not. Bonus points if the cursor changes to yet another ambiguous animated one as you hover over a tiny button which would pause the midi track.
Consciousness storage and transfer
Anyone know why the change? I’m aware that they were being targeted but I thought removing the extensions had appeased the kcorp.
First I’m hearing of this drama. Guess I’ll hold off on updating until the dust settles. Tachiyoma and Komga are amazing - glad to see they’re not going anywhere.
Yes. Adam something pointed this out two years ago: https://youtu.be/CQJgFh_e01g
I think a small linode is 12 bucks a month, and putting cloud flare in front it is free. Can add some s3 storage for a few more bucks too. They also have a free firewall you can use outside of the VMs.
Feels like this comes right from /r/comicrackusers
I learned by using django cookie cutter and reading their compose, env, docker and start files. I guess there are easier ways than that though (YouTube, coursera, etc)
Been using revanced for a while - had no idea there were this many alternatives. I like revanced though, especially with stube on Google tv.
I like sync. But I also like that there are so many different answers here. Seems to bode well for the fediverse.
In Norway you don’t break stride as a pedestrian, so any number above 0 seconds is unusual at a zebra crossing. There’s always this “oops I’m not in Norway anymore” moment i have as i consider trying the same shit in other countries.
I’ve been a lifelong ms admin, and always stuck to their desktop environments because they “just worked”. Often use Linux on containers, devices (handhelds, rpi etc) and webapp servers.
That win11 recall stuff though is a step too far. So I looked at which distro was likely to be easiest to use and just as you say - mint is the overwhelming consensus. And now it’s my daily driver. I needed to learn a few new tricks, but the mint forums are filled with windows refugees so finding forum posts is easy (e.g. I thought had a problem with my “task bar” not my “panel” but since others called it the same thing I found what I was looking for).
My biggest reason for staying on windows was that I could search for something and almost always find an answer - that’s become worse over the years IMO (often get these useless forums posts when they’re basically advising the user to reinstall with five paragraphs of pasted/generated text). The mint forums are genuinely friendly and helpful, and searching them is as useful as searching for win stuff used to be.
I don’t know if “this is the year” but I can’t imagine I’m the only one who has had enough of the MS ecosystem. My experience has been great so far, and I hope there are others who give it a go.
