I hoped Lemmy would blow up.

Blow up one server and three new will sprout.

No idea. I found the link over at Hacker News from this comment. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41861376

Install Pi-Hole to block ads but use DNS server provided by the biggest ad company? o.O

How do you jb LG tv?

I think so. As someone said, safari with another gui.

There is a new one, Orion. https://kagi.com/orion/

Today I learned

Ah, okey! I saw the guide and thought it looked interesting at first. But then my wallet saw two GPUs and promptly said no.

I can relate. Last time that happened, I gave up or trying to find out how that works and just used another computer that was already connected to the TV.

BookLibConnect and AaxAudioConverter. I use them do download my Audible purchases. They are both written using WPF (or some other Windows API only GUI lib) and thus cannot be run on Linux. I might rewrite them using the newest C# cross platform library, but that library does not compile native on Linux, only on Windows… (Unless you use the community maintained version).

I did try to find replacement for both for them but their ease of use and the conversion tool for axx to m4b made it preferable to just install Windows in a VM.

As for WinSCP, it is a SFTP/FPT client that is really nice and I did miss it initially as well. But Nautilus file manager has both SFTP and FTP support built into it. And if you want a dedicated client, I can recommend Terminus (but I am not a heavy user, rclone in terminal does most of my heavy lifting).

There is also the option to use two GPUs (or one and not use it for Linux). https://github.com/mr2527/pop_OS-win10-KVM-setup

I have two pieces of software I cannot live without, to the point that I would rewrite them for Linux if it came to that. Running Windows as a VM using Virtual Box has been a nice experience so far. (Given that both software are not CPU nor GPU heavy and could run on a tree if need be.)

Never used it, only used Debian based versions. I tried my hand at Fedora and OpenSUSE but no apt made me change back. Not because it better (or worse, for all I know), just that I know apt and didn’t want to take the time to learn rpm etc.

SkyShowTime also seem to not work on Linux.

I remember the Quantum release. They remade how the browser handled tabs, and with the new release you could handle (almost) unlimited number of tabs. I tried this buy opening as many tabs as I could, it worked flawlessly. I can’t even remember how it was before that, except that it was RAM intensive.

Is arch btw simpler than NixOS? I always thought that arch btw was on top of the difficulty food chain.

I have two applications that does not have a replacement for Linux, running Windows as a virtual machine is a great alternative as you don’t have to leave Linux (or reboot) to use them.

If all you do is browse the web, as is the case for a a lot of people, the OS does not matter. Heck, my neighbor does not even have a computer, does everything on his phone.

work while also troubleshooting

Let’s not pretend that most people know how to troubleshoot. ^{only a little /s}
