There were some news on major overhaul of libre.fm recently IIRC.
It's great until you realize that it doesn't have some specific types of connectors you need or a way to control connectors path (you can't have connectors that go around other boxes).
Steam support two weeks ago be like:
Yep, all this «how do I learn linux» stuff is weird. You don't learn your OS, you use it. Did you need to «learn» Windows? You just launch it and click your browser / file manager / media player and browse, manage files and watch or listen to your media files.
You can just use your PC as you would regularly use your PC and find solutions once you face some issues. Yes, Linux issues are different from Windows issues.
Is it trying to solve any problem that is not solved by rsync/rclone?
Don't get me wrong, I love new tools, just curious how is it different (better or worse) from rsync?
Others have said already, but XMPP and RSS. Also, nobody mentioned NNTP yet.
I wish everything was accessible by NNTP and we had better NNTP clients. NNTP is like RSS but for forums (so, Lemmy, Reddit, or anything where you could reply to posts). Download for offline reading, read in your client, define your own formatting, sorting, filtering, your client, your rules.
If Lemmy was accessible via NNTP, I could just download all posts and comments I'm interested in and reply to them without any connection, and my replies would get synced with the server later when I connect to WiFi or something.
I hope someone watches it and post a tl;dr here.
I'm interested too, but I don't understand why everything has to be a video (instead of something like a blog post) and don't have an hour for that.
How do symlinks work from the point of view of software?
Imagine I have a file in my downloads folder called movie.mp4, and I have a symlink to it in my home folder.
Whenever I open the symlink, does the software (player) understand «oh this file seems like a symlink, I should go and open the original file», or it's a filesystem level stuff and software (player) basically has no idea if a file I'm opening is a symlink or the original movie.mp4?
Can I use sync software (like Dropbox, Gdrive or whatever) to sync symlinks? Can I use sync software to sync actual files, but only have symlinks in my sync folder?
Is there a rule of thumb to predict how software behaves when dealing with symlinks?
I just don't grok symbolic links.
The workaround is to not use the software you don't like.
Use yt-dlp, it gets the job done without any ads, donations, cookie banners etc.
I'm pretty sure it was a joke.
Everyone did this at some point, but nobody would admit such a silly thing happened to them.
Universal editor you are talking about is vim. Spend 15 minutes doing vimtutor and you'll be happy 15 years later.
Thanks!
