I simply stopped using it. It was so much of a cesspool that not using was easy. I don’t have any FOMO. People know how to reach me if they want to.

We all got along just fine before Facebook was a thing, and I have MUCH better conversations on Fosstodon and Lemmy anyway.

Flash drives are SLOW. Like others have said, use a USB-attached SSD.

Doom is gonna become its own OS.

I see your point, but it’s fiction anyway, so I care less. I have a vague sense of how big the ISS is, so seeing it as a dot near a celestial body that we see in the sky all the time really sells the distances for me. If it had been a dot against Jupiter, for example, it wouldn’t have worked for me.

WTH is going on with her middle finger?

This is something that I wish they would do in Sci-Fi more often to help give a sense of scale to things.

As soon as I hear any A.I. generated voiceover, I stop playing the video and move on.

Exactly. Arch on my laptops and desktop, Debian on my server.

This is the way.

What if I run both Arch and Debian?

Race is a social construct. We are all just variants of the same species.

Ethnicity is a thing. Race is not.

Well thank goodness we bombed all of those innocent civilians to teach them a lesson!

 

Okay, I have NO IDEA how this is working, but I can AirPlay STEREO AUDIO from my Garuda KDE desktop to my STEREO PAIR of HomePod minis! 🤯

I already have my HomePod minis in a stereo pair on either side of my bedroom TV that I use with an AppleTV.

Pipewire-pulse sees each HomePod as an individual sink to send audio to, but oddly enough when I send audio, it only plays ONE channel on either HomePod - either left OR right.

So I created a combined output with pactl (thank you, Claude) and now I get STEREO sound from my pair!

I don’t get any lags or stuttering and I can control the HomePod volume from the Home app.
