TLDR - They never went away, they’re useful in hospitals

I have a very handy command in my .vimrc for this -

command! JSON setlocal filetype=json | %!jq .

Anytime I’m in a json file that isn’t formatted it’s as simple as typing :JSON to have it all sorted.

Always keyboard and mouse, never controller.

But yeah I’ve looked into alternative setups but it ultimately always means additional hardware to run the windows games.

My main machine is 95% gaming and 5% hobby work in CAD (also not on Linux) for 3dprinting.

Any coding is already a Linux laptop thing.

Until Destiny 2 gets Linux support I’ll unfortunately always be bound to windows. At least as a dual boot.

But if I’m forced to use windows anyways I feel like I’ll never make the jump to Linux. I’ve got a Linux laptop for the other use cases but gaming remains Windows only for me until the game I play with all my friends is cross platform.

But this man still thinks Linux is difficult and not easy to use

He explicitly said that it was incredibly easy to get set up on old hardware and that everything he did just worked.

All of his reasons why Linux is hard to use he specifically framed in the context of “historically speaking Linux was bad but now Linux is good”

Were you even paying attention?

That said, if you’ve ever tried to pair a controller with Linux that isn’t a PS5 or Xbox controller it will be rough. Had to use the CLI to change Bluetooth configs and install non standard drivers to support it on Mint

No context receivers? :(

Kalih Choc are great. I like that plan.

Thanks for the clarification on reputable vendors! I’ve always wondered where the right place to buy lithium was.

I’m not able to watch the video at the moment: is it ARM instead?

I think arm architecture are only going to become more prevalent with the success of the M line macs

Can also happen if you heat it extremely quickly. Very powerful induction can do this if the bottom isn’t covered in liquid

Glad it worked!

That’s ultimately the point of printing in my view. If you’ve made something useful you’re doing it right.

Hope it turns out ok. Usually printing tall narrow things in that orientation results in wobble and uneven layers at the top, if it finishes at all.

If it fails try printing with 1 side touching the bed or at a 45° angle with supports along the bottom. You’ll have to sand down the supported surface but it should at least complete!

I’d take that bet, but I often am relying on packages that are significantly out of date as a professional Android developer. 2 years is mild.

There’s no obvious rootkit unless the developer put it in and if it works with your version of Pulse then I wouldn’t see what the issue could be. It’s mostly a front end access to your Pulse where you’re making and mixing digital.

Security consciousness is good but I think you can trust this one.

But I’m also just a stranger on the Internet ❤️

All true. It seems obscure and niche enough to not be a scam. There’s only a single contributor and based on his activity elsewhere it seems like it was probably just a passion project.

Fair

But also it shouldn’t need any network access. The code is open source and you can look through it if you’ve got the expertise.

I use Voicemeter Potato to do virtual mixing of inputs. If you’ve got an output you should be able to route it through Voicemeter.

… Assuming that it works on Linux.

It looks like somebody was trying to do a Linux version here: https://github.com/theRealCarneiro/pulsemeeter so I assume Voicemeter doesn’t work on Linux.

There’s probably some way to manipulate PulseAudio to do this as well? But the Pulsemeeter option Is probably your best bet even if the repo hasn’t been touched in 2 years.

I’m not sure how much the tiktok ban will be balkanization so much as just the death of the product. It’s popular in the EU but not nearly to the extent as the US market.

No idea who would step into tiktok’s shoes in the advent of a ban. Hopefully not any of the big players - their offerings all blow compared to TT.

It works everywhere on the other phone OS 😉

Aka if you void your warranty and crack your phone OS - something that Apple fights at every turn. If you run your phone in unsafe and unfriendly ways then you can do something Android supports natively by default.

See! They’re totally the same guys! Buy iPhones 🤡

Definitely a useful tool and one you should’ve learned in a college algorithms course. Binary search backs a lot of high performance data structures
