if anyone like me was wondering

<span style="color:#323232;">So, we've decided on "umu" as the rename for ULWGL.

</span><span style="color:#323232;">umu "oo-moo" -- A chamber used for baking or heating.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">It fits the theme of pressure-vessel, steam, etc, and it's short, easy to say in a conversation, (and jokingly uwu).

the Arch wiki has some info. Not too sure but i think enabling the systemd timer is enough.

why do you say apt is the worst pm?

One of my school bullies one day unexpectedly apologized. I had long forgotten about it but we one day met randomly in the city and he suddenly started talking about how he was sorry how he treated me. He genuinely seems to have changed, i was surprised how much he changed for the better actually. But this also goes only for him, there were 2 others and they were much worse.

At the moment i was definitely more surprised and awkward but after some time i realized i was glad he did that, It brings some much needed closure. As i said, he wasn’t always totally awful, he even defended me a few times when he recognized things went too far. Looking at his life afterwards, the way he got into theater, he seems to have made many changes for the better, don’t know what prompted him.

What surprised me was also the way he spoke, his voice almost had a sort of constant tranquility, like he was at peace and wanted to atone for his behavior. But afaik he wasn’t that much into religion to explain it.

But i was also always more angry at the other two, not him as much. I blame them for the social anxiety that plagued me my whole life.

Yep i agree. Partly because of that bullying i had changed schools back then. Then a few years later it so happened that this person joined a folks dance group that another person from my new school here was attending and so i went and saw him at that performance. Even then i noticed he was different, although we didn’t talk. So it’s possible he changed even during those years.

Thank you!

So happy they migrated to the new engine. Previously i was getting single digit fps near the 25 minute mark and now it’s smooth :)

I believe youtube-dl are just slower at accepting merges. For example yt-dlp were the first to mitigate youtube’s speed throttling and idk if the base project has it even now. It’s still functional but may be slower.

I know the post wasn’t about it but unfortunately the only show really stagnating is Stargate, for years now. It’s a crime how mishandled it is.

Is there still anything upcoming though…?

My impression was the buyout was complete and they’ve still been silent for probably over a year now.

One of the writers on Twitter isn’t very optimistic :(

lspci -k might help

Ios kinda does have undo via a shake but you could also say it’s not discoverable, slow and awkward. No idea if Android has anything system and not app-lvl though.

You won’t find youtube content on there. Like with reddit and lemmy, creators and users have to switch to bolster engagement.

To be frank i haven’t found much use for peertube yet. All my creators are still on youtube. If you’re interested in linux, gaming and open source there are the linux experiment, gaming on linux, the linux cast and Veronica explains but they all mirror their videos from youtube.

I still have it and still use it occasionally. But yes, performance is often bad. Always suspected it was the storage but couldn’t understand why or how it could become slower over time. Because I don’t remember it being this slow when it was new. I also thought it was the new android updates that came out over time.

Maybe i misunderstood your question but i’ve also heard many say they weren’t getting all the content from the channels they subbed to exactly on the subscriptions feed. Personally i’ve never noticed this but that’s why some channels started recommending to also hit the bell.

Why not? Sounds are a subtle and quick indicator that something went good or bad. And if you find a particular action too repeating you can turn that sound off.

During Prigos march there were reports the Kremlin were actively calling the few countries they still had some relationship with. So it looked like he was considering escape for a moment.

Plain Matrix rooms are a bit too foreign to Discord users i’d say.

There’s another alternative being built which resembles Discord a lot more, is federated and as i understand is built around Matrix communities: github.com/commune-os/commune-server

Here’s a demo instance: shpong.com

The old lady behind the counter at our bus station is using dos to handle the payments and print the tickets

iod, 9 months ago

Yeah she just uses the keyboard to input a few fields very quickly. It’s that machine’s sole purpose. But I assume it’s still connected to some network to get data about ticket availability and I wonder how secure it is.

Firefox in general is faster for me than Chrome in many pages

However a notable exception are web games and web based game emulators. They’re a lot slower on Firefox and i get horrible sound crackling whereas on Chrome its much better. It’s been like this for years with no seeming improvement.
