A privacy and FOSS enthusiast. Linux 🐧 and Firefox 🦊 for life

🔭 Loves space and starwatching

🌌 Amazed at how universe works

Glad that there are govt. level systems who make use of Linux (mostly ubuntu ) systems here. For eg. , in kerala, all govt schools and colleges use linux for computer labs and academic activities, i guess the local body administration too use ubuntu.

Only wish we could convince those private sector schools of the money they'll save converting those slow windows systems to linux.

I thought I would never have to see BSOD after switching to linux, but here we go...

[ tbh, I love that errors are presented much better, just that the name doesn't bring back much good memories.

As far as they don't destroy anything, its okay. I already feel this canvas was more inclusive of smaller arts and just continued around them ( instead of overriding them )

This PR in lemmy will implement the issue PR #3869. Looking at the thread, the devs have completed the work and waiting for successful testing.

Thanks for the video

it would be good If the video was in landscape mode. we could see more file contents and there will be less word breakings.

Love the fact that it Feels a lot like Rarbg •ᴗ•

In VLC, i use this extension called VLSub. It downloads subtitles from opensubtitles.org by hash or by name of the movie

If you want a completely offline (local) one, you can take a look at gpt4all

And i use it with fish :)

Exactly. I liked the new design so much than old design , and as a fan of GNOME style , the Thunderbird-gnome-theme was perfect for me.

Any plans to do a timelapse video ? It would be cool 😀

First thing i do is disable bitlocker. Its PITA when dualbooting too

Google will not end that deal like that. Even though firefox is a browser with small marketshare, being the default searchengine has its own merits. As soon as google stepsdown , microsoft (bing ) or other search engines will compete for that. Plus , having google in more places will help them lessen the grips of anti-trust lawsuits too.

  • Icon theme : Papirus

  • Shell and GTK theme : Yaru Dark ( the ubuntu darkmode one )

For cursors, i use the default Adwaita. Even though i shifted from ubuntu to arch 7 years ago, i always liked the orangish theme of ubuntu.

Sorry to hear that. Since this was the first event and the moderators itself said technical issues prevented from reading and taking action in a lot of spam reports, i hope the next time would be lot better.

Used nostr without much idea about itself, but using Amethyst, it was the easiest i ever created account ever in my life

The working involves relays ( which reminded me of tor ) which helps messages pass from you to others and from them to you.

Discovering accounts can be through their public key or as usual, their username ( if set ). Its usable with just the key generated during our signup.

The downside is not much active communities and users other than mainly crypto enthusiasts, but people are increasing.

For PC's the whisper can be now run on many common laptops and desktops ( with almost good accuracy ) , thanks to projects like whisper.cpp and faster-whisper.

There also happens a lot of model's getting released by meta like wav2vec2 and MMS ( not seen using anywhere though )

I guess there are many python packages for aforementioned projects too.

I can see them in inbox, and in case of notifications, they only appear when the client is in foreground.

Yeah. Without ublock origin, that site is practically unusable.

Probably that if possible, you can link to original article from itsfoss. And possibly for all such news ( unless its overly bloated / behind a paywall )

I don't know about graphene, but doesn't some android roms allow to use custom ( more private Webview implementations) instead of default ?

I can see replies to my comments and posts in infinity. The main issue is now that private messages aren't implemented. Depending on the speed of developement, it will soon land

On android, i wish Xplore file manager had an alternative. Didn't find anything to replace it. Dualpane file managers are the best. (btw, its one of the app where donating to dev really feels like he deserves it ).

If what you want to do is "copy all my communities from current instance to new instance", then there is a tool called lasim.

Or did you mean to backup, like as to save all posts and subscribed users ?

I just had to uninstall "Enhancer for youtube", and reload the YT page. Not even ubock cache clearing was necessary. ( maybe different for different people )

It usually depends on the model. When i tried nous-hermes model, it used approximate ~5GB extra RAM. I use a system with 16GB ram.
