Podcasts are my primary use case (my partner uses audiobooks exclusively), and while it works rather well, I want to put in the caveat that there’s no working playlist functionality in the app, and IME headset controls don’t work from FF for Android.

That’s not a deal breaker for me, but it was a massive disappointment when I switched over. But the lack of playlist functionality in the app only annoys me when I want to follow one of the shorter news feeds, since I have to stop and select the next track every 5 min as the episode ends. No issue with that feed from the browser, so meh.

Works great through my reverse proxy/cloudflare tunnel setup, so not too many actual complaints.

Accelerationist arguments always show that the speaker isn’t nearly as smart as they think they are.

I felt the same way as you initially when I got into the genre, but Between the Buried and Me made me develop and appreciation for growling vocals. They’ve got a lot of really intricate and technical guitar work, which is what made me keep listening.

For (mostly) entirely instrumental track, animals as leaders is good, and I absolutely love Polyphia (they play at different times signatures for an interesting sound), and Power Glove is amazing if you like metal covers of video game music.

As for genres, look into symphonic and progressive metal bands, they might be more your style.

I took would like to know as well.

Lmao, you’ve never heard of Lennybot.

Scammers are stupider than you could ever imagine.

Sweet, thanks kind stranger!

That’s awesome. Do you know if there’s an ETA on these features being GA? I don’t know that I care enough to side load out from GitHub.

Same, but I really wish it supported user tagging.

Most “real” news outlets too.

It literally keeps every single conversation you’ve ever had in a big long list on the left,

Not all of them, actually. I regularly have to use the search function to find chats/groups I haven’t used in a bit. The most organization you can do is the dozen pinned threads they let you have.

My CISO has all but said he’s going to prevent any auto-rollout of that shit because it breaks decades of user training and TRUNCATES THE FRONT OF THE URL, NOT THE BACK LIKE ANY SENSIBLE APPLICATION.

Like, let’s make it so Steve in accounting can’t see that the login link he wants to click is actually haxxor.com instead of bank.com, makes perfect fucking sense.

Try a user agent switcher, might be enough to make them fuck off and let you play.

This may be a silly question, but as far as online games that work, it shouldn’t matter if my friends are on Windows, right?

It shouldn’t matter, Linux and Windows and Mac are all compatible ‘PC’ platforms. As long as the game is supported/runs, you should be good.

If you’re concerned about reinstalling, grab another drive and swap it. You’ll be able to play to your heart’s content and still swap back at a moments notice if you need your windows install again.

Why do you think that because a person could do something they necessarily will?

I don’t, but in this case, we know it’s not because they got rid of that option. Why? Because the task is infeasible to support. Kinda like you’ve been arguing against this entire time in the face of multiple reasons why people aren’t doing it.

You’re far from the first person to want this, and the devs no longer offer it as a supported method for a reason after all. No one is saying it is impossible, just not something that’s feasible to create and support. This really should not be this hard of a concept to understand.

Well, yeah. Especially when you’ve already been given reasons why it isn’t. But clearly you know better than the devs or people familiar with the product.

So then it isn’t actually that feasible then, otherwise you’d do more than just whine about it on the Internet. Especially when there are valid reasons to not support that method.

“Here, have this piece of niche software that’s ok I guess as a way of me charging you out the ass for the only product you actually care about.”

Tools like restic and Borg and so critical that you will regret not having had them sooner.

I just experienced this when a little mini PC I bought <2y ago cooked its nvme and died this month. Guess who has been meaning to set up backups on that guy for months?

Unfortunately, that nvme is D. E. D. And even more unfortunately, that had a few critical systems for the local network (like my network controller/DHCP). Thankfully it was mostly docker containers so the services came up pretty easy, but I lost my DBs so configs and data need to be replicated :(

The first task on the new box was figuring out and automating borg so this doesn’t happen again. I also set up backups via my new proxmox server, so my VMs won’t have that problem too.

Now to do the whole ‘actually testing the backups’ thing.

Then do if for your distribution then. It’s clearly not that difficult, you’ve all but explicitly stated as much.
