IntelliJ products my dude! If you go on there education side you can find the packages for free to compile yourself. There’s tons of guides online to do it.

L Vue scan pro is a must if you’re into analog photography. The software that usually comes with scanners and printers generally doesn’t work on Linux and if it does it’s terrible.

Spujb is good people. I appreciate all the content you post.

So in all honesty, I have been adamantly anti Taylor Swift since the moment I learned there was a new pop star, but this is only because I hate all pop stars and anything corporate. I appreciate the reminder to check yourself on misogyny though. That really does slip into our subconscious so easily.

You know what hate brigade I am praying for? Dave fucking Grohl. I cannot think of a more neutral ass corporate shill.

Yes this was my experience with some websites as well until I set up an account with two factor authentication so that I could authenticate my IP properly. Some of these web servers are set up to deny certain IP ranges that can’t be cached.

Other trackers may require a set IP for VPNs to work but mullvad doesn’t allow static IPs if I recall. The way around this (from my experience with other trackers) is to set up 2 factor auth. I haven’t used audiobookbay, but this was my solution for 3 other sites.

Guess they should give up and shut down.

This was pre-linux for me but something you can still do in most distros so I think it’s a valid story.

In 1999 I was using Napster on computer running MS-DOS. I was 12 years old and an aspiring open media enthusiast/stupid script kiddie. I was using the file explorer interface in Napster and accidentally gave access to my entire C drive. I also had opened ports to share certain media and to fuck with my friends using daemon tools (back then you could do stupid stuff like control a friend’s desktop with certain versions of daemon tools). Immediately I started receiving packages called things like “sleep.tight.tiny.mite” and I knew I was fucked so I clicked in the Napster interface and clicked “delete” and deleted my entire active drive.

I panicked and installed the only operating system we had which was a random copy of Red Hat. When my dad came home I pretended like it had always had Linux on it. I do think he was more impressed than mad.

Last year’s G454V HD. I end up handbraking to shitty mp4s because MKV and HD avi files cannot stream without lagging. I have tried streaming from VLC, emby, and plex

Hm. I’m with a fiber* based ISP that requires use of their router. It sucks, but it’s that or Comcast which is indescribably bad in my area.

My Chromecast won’t stream anything with a high quality codec, such as HD mkv files. Are you running into this issue at all?

Native vim? Or with an elaborate preference file?

I personally have grown so accustomed to vim that if I have to ssh to a new (to me) server I would rather use stock vi (which in most systems is actually an alias for vim) to any other editor. But honestly I have made an alias for a script that ports over my elaborate vimrc file for every first login to a new server or instance lol. It makes me feel a little like a diva 💁💅

I honestly don’t understand why recent Ubuntu releases are popular. However, I enjoyed it in the early 2000s. There was another popular release a few years ago that had zero hotkeys enabled and I have never felt more disgusted by a release in my life. I can’t even remember what it’s called, it traumatized me hahaha.

Well deck the halls and call me jolly. We’re just playin fun here. Merry Christmas.

No, read it again. It makes sense

What about vio life cheese? That stuff is pretty dang good. Daiya can fuck right off

Remember when Android was entirely open source?
