Intermittent audio cutout over HDMI - Ubuntu 22.04.4

I’m getting intermittent audio cutouts on my machine. Audio will be playing fine but will then cut out for anywhere from ~0.5-5.0 seconds, then come back fine. What’s interesting is that other sounds may continue to play just fine while it happens. For example, playing a game there will be background noises and music, but...

Took me way too long to see it, but the inflated mascot looks like it’s the animated series Batman’s ass getting ready to squat on the people.

Last place I was at completely screwed me over when it came to charging my electric car. I was leasing a Leaf and had been running it entirely off of the 120 charger. Lived at this place for a year and had no problem. Then someone on their HOA got a wild hair up their ass and said I couldn’t do that any more. They began by making up bullshit excuses, trying to say that it was a hazard to the landscapers. Except my roommate was the landscaper, and he didn’t give a shit. Blatant fucking lie from the HOA. Then they tried to pivot and say it was the insurance company that was prohibiting it. I offered multiple solutions including expanding the electrical for the covered parking, running power to the curb, or even getting an entirely new line run from the city. Emailed all this to them and hear fuck all for eight months. Then they send me a registered letter with a cease and desist. Had to early terminate the lease on my car.

Landlords and HOAs are some of the biggest inhibitors of EV adoption, and they can all go fuck themselves.

So something changed between then and now. Wish the picture had absolute timestamps instead of the relative ones. I’m on mobile so I’m not about to try to dive into EXIF to find out when that was happening.

Let me know when they actually close the loop on that. Right now it’s just externalized by dumping it all into the atmosphere.

Buy a domain, set up a catch-all and use servicename@yourdomain. Boom.

Can we not with the “basement dweller” bullshit? Developers of free, open source software are volunteers putting forth a lot of time, energy, and effort only to get derided for it.

Looking for feedback on a new build. (pcpartpicker.com)

Finally looking to build a new rig after about 7 years on my current machine. Will largely be used for gaming in Linux, although I may wind up throwing in a second drive for dual booting to Windows for games that don’t work well on Proton/Wine. Also using it as a home theater box for streaming content....

I don’t really see myself doing much upgrading, haven’t changed anything in my current setup since I got it. The four DIMMs should be enough, and I can’t think of any PCI devices that I would want to add in. That and looking at their other offerings yields a bunch of nausea inducing RGB and jumps way up in price. I’m not dead set on this mobo, I was looking at recommendations for manufacturers and it seemed the consensus was that ASRock was a decent pick. If there’s a different option that makes more sense then I’ll pivot. My current setup is a Gigabyte that has some pretty bad issues, I can’t even get into the BIOS anymore.

You could try making your own oat milk in a blender, it’s pretty easy if you have the filtering bags. Took me a couple batches to figure out the right amount of blending, but once you get it right it’s great. Blend too much and it comes out almost slimy, too little and it’s watery. I had to adjust blending times by about 2-3 seconds to dial it in.

Having a hard time finding the evidence you mention, got a citation? First few articles I saw were actually advising against blanket pornography bans.

Can’t have any nuanced discussion here! Glad to see people such as yourself engaging in reductionism and shutting down thinking, because all interactions online have to be boiled down to five words TL;DR pithy sound bites.

Leave the shit on Twitter, we can do better here.

As mentioned on another one of your comments, I am having a hard time finding the science you reference.

I didn’t suggest shit, so please don’t put words in my mouth. Thanks for the citations though.

Is there some signing in place to ensure it’s not a malicious repo? I don’t really trust unofficial F-Droid repos.

Forbo,
@Forbo@lemmy.ml avatar

If I remember correctly F-Droid supports reproducible builds, but it’s a matter of the app developer supporting them. So there is light at the end of the tunnel, we’re just not there yet.

Last I checked, when you try to install from another source it just pops up a message saying this is not currently allowed due to this setting, with a button to take you to the setting. Literally two taps and you are able to install from other sources.

Wait, so the swirl wasn’t related to the “magic smoke” leaving electronics components when they get fried? Somebody lied to me.

I think we’ve reached a point technologically that it’s entirely within our grasp to secure the base layer of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs for everyone. Air, water, food, shelter, clothing, medical care.
