remember hearing that there was no straight flag that wasn't made by a bigot .. so ... i'm kinda tempted to do one tbh..?
I did a dirty install of PopOS and got it up and running again.
SO MUCH LEARNING
SO FUN
GRINDING MY TEETH
i learned a lot though, among other things, that i won't be touching it again even with a 10 meter stick
@heredos@heredos.net I wanted to try mint but something about installing nvidia drivers via terminal just didn’t cut it for me! I’m willing to try another distro but this one seems ok and it mostly just works?
Also, most modern distros ship with nvidia drivers now that nouveau kind of became the official one.
But yea, i recommend you stick to big-name base distros like debian, ubuntu, arch (jk), suse or fedora.
They have a lot of derivatives, especially "easy for begginers" ones, but these are often less tested, with less users and documentation in cases you need help and have some premade configurations with dubious choices.
@heredos@heredos.net what’s your recommendation then?
Those are just my personal picks though, and i'd still personally pick fedora as it comes with a lot more stuff to make a first experience more enjoyable and less barebones.
@heredos@heredos.net isn’t fedora owned by red hat?
@heredos best debugging is when you put *(void*)0 = 0; so that it generates a crash dump and figure out where the fuck it's failing

@lucscozygames This is such a cute project. I wish I had participated along the way, but so love how it turned out!
THREE (3) PUBLIC TRANSPORTS
Tonight's Low Quality Ad is for this Seal Pet Bed. Go ahead and try to name a better duo than dogs and seals. Wait, Batman and Robin. Salt and pepper. Bonnie and Clyde. Okay, there's tons of them. But I think your dog would still love this seal bed.

Please don't get this if you have a pet seal though, that would be traumatizing for the poor lil guy.
@heredos did you use a bridge

Number 6: The Mind Flayer. Your thoughts will be shredded, echoes of endless torment.
@heredos @microsoft checkmate: we use french settings in France!
@microsoft at least I won't have to use Teams, right?
Right??
@notthatdelta@furry.engineer you'll be forced to use Teams to continue speaking during torture sessions
Smart.

I need to buy a e-reader
What is good? I know nothing about those devices!
I use a tablet. Better screen size and color. Unless I am going off-grid, where I don't have access to power.
As for readers, I like the Kobo except for their customer service, which is bad. It took two months for a warranty repair that died of the same problem within a week. So despite hating Amazon, I have a Kindle. I bought it while I waited for Kobo not to fix my reader.
@NaraMoore I don't really like reading on a tablet because of the luminosity.
So I would like something with some kind of a paper feel.
and Ideally, not an amazon thing...
But maybe I am dreaming :)
I can understand that. For manga, an e-reader is awful. For novels, they are fine, but I really do like the larger screen. I use large letters I can see well with aging eyes.
Yeah, the old me will need large letter too!
I'm only interested in text.
Are Kobo and Kindle the only two options?
Also, most of what I read is in Kobo or EPub format, and I would have to convert them to mobi to use the Kindle.
Reader manufacturers like to lock you into their book stores.
@NaraMoore Oh no!!! This shit in E-reader too?
I might not buy one just because of this.
Proprietary format sucks!!!
I want to buy one but pay in my own currency I made.
Speaking of koreader and manga, you can even use rakuyomi to manage your reading collection and automatically download chapters from "various sources". I use it a lot
@Kingu I've been eyeing Boox Go 7 color because in addition to being an ereader, it also
an e-ink android tablet with a size comparable to my Kindle Paperwhite.
Depending on your needs, a site like https://goodereader.com/ could point in the right direction.
@Kingu kobo has color e-ink devices that I’ve been eyeing for when my Kindle finally gives up the ghost.
@Kingu the Boox Palma is supposed to be good. I haven't used it myself, but it's the first one I would look for if I was buying an e-reader.

@Kingu So far, we have been enjoying the Boox Go Color 7 e-Ink tablet. Has a back-light and runs Android.
So far
Kindle is Amazon so fuck this
Kodo is not Amazon but it's an American company and as a Canadian this put them as the very last option.
Boox is not American but it appears they are violating the GPL which is not cool.
@Kingu I have used PocketBook in recent years (Swiss/Ukrainian company), I did like the Verse Pro quite a bit.
Right now I use a Kobo Clara (Canadian as mentioned), added a larger memory card and sideloaded KOReader software - IMHO a much nicer reading experience.
Both readers worked well with syncing large-ish Calibre libraries.
I have heard a few good things about Onyx Boox, but have no personal experience with it.
@Kingu I‘m very happy with my pocketbook
If you have to deal with American tourists, remember to never ever use any references.
The weather 35 degree
The distance is 130
The price is 24.95
Use the word "Foreign" to talk about stuff from the USA
and so on!
There is an album titled " JUN TOGAWA avec KEI OOKUBO".
It's Togawa singing her greatest hits with piano as the only accompaniment. Pianist is Kei Ookubo from URBANGARDE.
I really wish to listen to this again but I lost my copy and now I cannot find it online anywhere...
Any clues to where I can find it?
@miinatsu There is a lot of Jun Togawa on YT, but not this particular album
I can find it in Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/album/3M2YfImJtoZIiMTguRcR0K but everythinbg is grayed out and do not play,.,
Also here https://music.line.me/webapp/album/mb00000000024cb682 but it's only a few seconds preview for each song :(
@miinatsu It required a login but it seems to be working!!
I will try tonight as I am not allowed to login to VK from work :(
@Kingu@sakurajima.moe And here the lyrics (click the songs link)
https://juntogawa.org/en/original-albums/jun-togawa-avec-ohkubo-kei/
@heredos It look like they all require some login or else songs are only short preview
Idk what soulseek is and this domain is blocked at my work :(
But I will check later!! Thanks!
@Kingu@sakurajima.moe @danmaku@mididungeon.xyz Can you hide your IP on
@danmaku@mididungeon.xyz @Kingu@sakurajima.moe To avoid problems sharing stuff... or not so important?
Automated speed enforcement cameras are just a tax grab that prevent the right of citizens to go at the speed they wants.
So they will be removed.
Fuck the pedestrians.
I am totally fine with car people killing each others.
As long as pedestrians and cyclists are out of it!
I'm surprised that so many people don't know this.
@lowqualityfacts The bit about the 3 invisible Fs only applies to the medieval spelling. The modern spelling simplifies things quite a bit and gets rid of 2 of them.
