Just use vim, it usually comes preinstalled

HP OMEN 16

Some retailers give the option to have no OS installed and with a Windows key, I bought the device when I started switching to Linux and installed a windows partition without activation key. Eventually, I deleted the windows partition as I didn’t use it

I saved around 100€ on my laptop by requesting the FreeDOS model, the option still exists

This happens with my screensaver that cycles between error messages like bsod in different OS

Truly a Sisyphus tale

I do that too, I have my own server in my basement for storage

Best password manager is offline password manager.

KeepassXC makes a file with the passwords that is encrypted, sharing this file with a server is more secure than letting the server manage your passwords

Better played with a cookie in the middle

None of the packages I compile from source are essential to my working system. I have a private chatbot to test, some emulators and dsda-doom.

Every one of those programs can be one or two versions obsolete and it won’t make a difference.

I just complie from source some lightweight programs that are too niche for repositories. I am in no way advocating for full source compilation of every program in your system, that’s a security and usage nightmare. Flatpack does have its use for sandboxing an environment. I personally use it for windows applications in bottles.

Yes, it would depend on your flatpack usage. For me I only have like 5 programs compiled from source and one flatpack (bottles) because of the sandboxing

Just compile from source?

Yes, that could be an alternative to computing hashes, I don’t know what option would be less resource intensive

Yes, that’s why I’m proposing it as opposed to just one pixel to differentiate between ad and video. Youtube videos are already separated in sections, just add some metadata with a hash to every one.

Hey, I like sailing the high seas as much as the next one but shouldn’t those links be relegated to the megathread?

That is prone to error, just a pixel can be too small of a sample. I would prefer something with hashes, just a sha1sum every 5 seconds of the current frame. It can be computed while buffering videos and wait until the ad is over to splice the correct region

For me I thought compatibility would hold me back but I never used the windows partition in my dual boot so I ended up deleting it after a reinstall

Present, I’m the tar cvJf insane
