Coming to terms with no longer having privacy and control over my technology

I miss the days of VHS and DVD shelfs in homes, for example. If you bought the tapes and had them in your home, no corporate entity could alter those tapes without your consent, monitor how many times you watch them, sell your data to whomever they please without your knowledge, roll out new mandatory conditions to a 'user...

Thanks for sharing. I (wrongly) assumed all games were entirely 100% DRM free.

As someone who’s not following 🇺🇸 news, what does that (Hilary) part means?

Thanks for explaining.

I never heard of that. and for the Eipstein, I always associated his info with powerful people, but not specifically with the Clintons ಠ_ಠ

I agree with everything you write, but I'll also add an unpopular opinion as someone who tested the beta version of Vista and hated it: Vista x64 SP2 was a good OS, which solved most of the issues that existed with the OS.

And into this day, it's the most beautiful Windows UI, at least for me.

I use Pop_Os on my desktop, but that’s nowhere near PowerToys. Even the search is barebones when you compare it with PowerToys using the Everything search plugins.

Also PowerToys has a lot more to offer than the search: mouse shake features, keyboard remapping, a great window manager with shortcuts, files preview and much more.

I know there are some decent alternatives in MacOS, but I haven’t found a proper replacement for that on Linux.

But in order to use that, I need to get replace the current Pop_Os Gnome interface, right?
I cannot use that as an application, like PowerToys does, or can I?

As an European, I still prefer the freedom to have alternate App stores.

Yet, I still don't see a reason why they don't provide the same app to all customers since it's allowed by Apple, aside from greed or something like that.

Either way, let these developers enjoy their small time of fame, because as soon as RetroArch becames available, a lot of these emulators will be left in the dust ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I only use RetroArch on PC, so I don’t know how it works on iOS, but I will assume will be identical to the console versions, which already have all the cores included on the emulator (on PC they are downloaded individually).

I wouldn’t call it just a front end, it’s much more than that, and it has a great integration. Also the devs seem to focus a lot on the emulation accuracy.

Tarallo - selfhostable FOSS Trello alternative (feddit.it)

Hi! For the ones of you that use Trello, I made a simple to use and host alternative in PHP. It's not a complete alternative like other projects, and I mainly made it to be able to host it on free PHP web servers while having control over data/attachments. It also support a basic importer for Trello JSON exports....

The app seems great.
@matteinim I'm getting an error when trying to create the DB tables: Reason:
SQL Error [1273] [HY000]: (conn=517001) Unknown collation: 'utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci'

Does it support MariaDB 10.6.17?

Tick_Dracy ,

I created a DB with utf8mb4 with the general_ci collection, but the issue remains.
I'll try to change the SQL script

Tick_Dracy ,
@Tick_Dracy@lemm.ee avatar

To make it work, I had to remove some things from the script, which didn't work for me:

  1. START TRANSACTION;
  2. SET time_zone = "+00:00";
  3. /*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */;
  4. /*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@@CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */;
  5. /*!40101 SET @OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION=@@COLLATION_CONNECTION */;
  6. /*!40101 SET NAMES utf8mb4 */;
  7. CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci (like you suggested)
  8. COMMIT; (In Alter Tables, since as far as I remember, DDL commands don't need to commit, only the DML ones. So I did the commit manually)

If I need to remove the registration, do I have to update the Value column on tarallo_settings table or are there any settings' menu which I'm not seeing?

I use and recommend Baikal.

I highly recommend using DeArrow, from the same dev from SponsorBlock.

Tick_Dracy ,
@Tick_Dracy@lemm.ee avatar

The DeArrow extension works with both ways:

  1. If the community submits a thumbnail (you can vote on them) and a better video headline, that will be the default one. I always try to submit the most relevant thumbnail, even if it might be a spoiler one (it’s up to you if you are interested in the context or not).
  2. In the absence of community submitted content, a random thumbnail will be used (still better than the stupid faces).

That's called Tubular, now.

There is an official Onedrive client for Linux?

Last time I checked there wasn’t and you had to rely on a third-party application, based on MS API (͡•_ ͡• )

Adguard does a good job on iOS.
