just a couple of years… yeah…

Switch pro worked without any tweaks as well.
I use kde6+Wayland. I do like the simplicity of Cinnamon, but it runs games slower than kde, even though mangohud claims they run at the same speed. For example, in Cinnamon it’ll say 60fps when it’s clearly in the 30s-40s, and kde actually runs the same thing at 60fps. This is with every tweak i could find, and yes, including turning on the setting to turn off compositing during games.
Kde6 is still quite buggy at times, but I’m really enjoying Wayland’s smoother general behavior over x11, even with x11 stuff like wine/proton. This is on arch + AMD rx 6600 xt. I used old gnome 2, then mate, then Cinnamon for years, but if KDE can clean itself up a little bit (no judgment tho, i get it) it may be my permanent DE. Generally when i go to report a bug, it’s already reported by someone else…
It won’t help with the poor lighting, onboard mic and insanely low bitrates though.
I generally do this on my NAS, combined with nightly and bi-weekly backups, plus a 6-mo safety backup, to a backup drive. Also, basic off-site nightly backups for important stuff. If I worked on really important stuff that required lots of versioning, though, I’d probably go with a versioning system instead of inserting the date.
There’s a dozen apps for it, but I wouldn’t trust them to do a perfect job. At a bare minimum, you’d probably need to keep said app up to date at all times, and it’d need to be one that runs in the background or runs on every boot or something.
I say this a lot, but “nomacs” image viewer/editor. I take a lot of time lapse videos and I have directories of like, 50000 identically-sized images each on a smb server over gigabit ethernet and nomacs can open from a directory and quickly cycle through the photos using the arrow keys, without resetting the current pan/zoom setting (important for me), without any trouble. It takes about as long to open the directory of photos as it takes for my samba client to download the directory data.
It also has a lot of cool little quality of life features, including lots of shortcut keys for overlaying metadata and such. It has basic image editing capability as well. The only other image viewer I use is digikam, which is more for organizing personal photos. Otherwise it’s all nomacs, baby.
There are plenty of those, depending on the location. Is it one of the Elodea species maybe?
I guess an AOSP-based rom, if one exists for your phone?
Less relaxing if you know that it has actual goals. There’s no actual repercussions if you fail, you just don’t get patted on the back as much. If you have that perfectionistic, completionist attitude, there’s still a tiny bit of stress. I wish the game had 0 expectations, but it’s still mostly relaxing.
Reply to old reply, sorry. Technically blocking the IP isn’t perfect either. In theory, as long as it has the wifi credentials, and your wifi has access to the internet, your TV will be able to access the internet if it really wants to. All it’d have to do is ignore the IP assignment or fake/change a MAC address during DHCP. I don’t know why a “legit” TV would do this, but if you get some unbranded Chinese thing, or if any wifi device wants to be malicious, it can bypass DHCP+IP filters very easily.
The house was built 7 years ago, so maybe the plumbers just threw on whatever they had in their van. Do you know what the crimped method/area is called on this thing? Is there a specific term for it?
Unfortunately is has stopped leaking for now. I say unfortunately, because I don’t know when it may start again. It seemed to start to leak when I pulled out the dishwasher, so movement/flexing/etc made it happen. I was unable to determine exactly where it leaked from, but it seemed to pool near the center of the entire valve, so it could have been near the crimped area or the knob area, or maybe even the connection going off to the dishwasher, and the water could have just run down to the lowest bit of the valve.
It’s 1/2" nominal PEX going to a quarter-turn shutoff, to a 3/8 braided dishwasher line. I just didn’t know what to call the weird crimped/connector part on the PEX, and thus how to properly remove it if necessary. All of the PEX crimps that I’ve found online have been very different looking.
Oh, that’s a PEX crimp? Does it have a specific name? Most of the PEX crimps that I’ve found have looked very different.
Oh… I thought this was satirical about gender or something. Not literally saying that those are the two best screws, because NOBODY IN THE WORLD THINKS THAT.
I would argue that MS Office feels like it’s from the last century as well. Even the newest versions of it feel like it was made by people who have never had to use it.
Never connect your smart TV to the internet. Just don’t do it. Get a third party device or ideally use an old PC with an appropriate HTPC Linux distro or something.
I don’t go over there often, but I’ll check next time I do. The duct connector looks like it usually goes over the duct/pipes, so maybe it would be difficult to insert into the wall duct? I could always try, though.
I live near multiple major Boeing facilities and so a large percentage of the local population works there. Boeing, due to their hiring practices and sort of employee abuse and such, basically create (or attract) a creepy cult of weird psychotic narcissists, especially the white-collar workers. Not everyone that works there is like that, but the ones that work there for 20+ years almost always are. I have numerous relatives and know lots of other people who work there and they are all creepy, balding, extremely self-important and abusive people. Now other people may pipe in and say that they have a very different experience, but that’s been mine. Oh, and they all want everyone they come across to know that they work at Boeing. It’s a core part of their identity. They are desperate to impress everyone.
My most recent experience with long-term Boeing employees was my psychopath uncle-in-law seemingly tried to murder his wife when she decided to divorce him after 20 years of abuse, mostly because it would have looked bad at work and made it harder for him to make “executive”.
Honestly I relish in the lowering status of Boeing and its employees. It’s been a long time coming. They make some shitty jets these days, they have shitty business practices, there’s something clearly wrong with their corporate culture, and their cult of creeps have been a pain in everyone else’s asses for many years.
I guess that’s all a long way of saying that Boeing probably doesn’t even have to hire anyone to kill whistleblowers. I would not be shocked if a “good employee” took it upon themselves to do it.
I’d go for Jellyfin over Plex myself.
