But it is also a fun road!

Unraid is not a backup. It is good, but if your data goes wrong for different reasons or you lose the entire device, you can’t restore it. Dedicated backups are a must for anything serious!

If you don’t want to help the slavers, here is a tip: you can destroy ladders.

Oh cool, Lemmy automatically obfuscates your password. All I see is *************!

Hey, my setup works for me! Just add an option to enable CPU overheating in the next update!

I used to have a similar setup but had it stream directly into MPV using the ytdl hook. Do you have it download the videos into a cache automatically and then load from file later and if so, how did you set that up?

I like Ardour. Unfa on YouTube made a great tutorial on how to use it.

No, it is customer’s since there will only be one customer left at that point.

Sounds like something you are using to manage your packages to me…

Stop giving them ideas!

IANAL but it looks like they are violating Apache 2, as they are supposed to retain the license and mark any changes.

Sure. If you are using an nvidia optimus laptop, you should also add __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia at the start of the last line when running in hybrid mode to run mpv on the dgpu. You should have a file at ~/.wallpaperrc that contains wallpaper_playlist: /path/to/mpv/playlist. You may want to add this script to your startup sequence via your wm/de.

#!/bin/sh

WALLPAPER_PLAYLIST=$(cat ~/.wallpaperrc | grep -v '^\w*#' | grep 'wallpaper_playlist' | sed "s/wallpaper_playlist: //")


xwinwrap -g 1920x1080 -ov -- mpv -wid WID --no-osc --no-audio --loop-playlist --shuffle --playlist=$WALLPAPER_PLAYLIST

Hope this helps!

I set mpv as the root window which worked well. I stopped using it a while back, but if you are interested, I could dig up the simple script for you (literally one or two lines iirc).

Wow, CUPS is way better than I previously thought and I thought it was amazing!

If you have ever seen a police interregation, you may notice the detectives ask a question and then, after either no answer or insufficient answer, they will just look at the suspect expectantly. This is done to put phsycological pressure on the suspect to answer the question. Given this info, I would say so, at least in a face to face situation.

Online, I am not so sure. How many posts did you scroll past in the last week on Lemmy that ask a question that you did not answer? How many did you answer? Even if you answered most, you would be in the minority, as if you were not, we would expect far higher engagement rates on posts.

It is just how I prefer to do my computing. I tend to live on the command line and pipe programs together to get complex behavior. If you don’t like that, then my approach is not for you and that’s fine. As for your analogy, I see it more as “instead of driving down the road in a car, I like to put my own car together using prefabs”.

Option 4: levy existing tools such as gpg and git using something like pass. That way, you are keeping things simple but it requires more technical knowledge. Depending on your threat model, you may want to invest in a hardware security key such as a yubikey which works well with both gpg and ssh.

It can’t double the dBs. It will only add 3 as dBs are a log scale and +/-3dBs is double/half.

Honestly, just jump in and start making something, either following a tutorial and/or referencing the docs as you go. As for free assets, maybe try the creative commons website? Just make sure to adhere to the terms of any license that you use.
