+1 for Bazzite. Atomic distro + NVDIA drivers included πŸ‘Œ

Freetube `[BAD_HTTP_STATUS: 403] Potential causes: IP block or streaming URL deciphering failed` is fixed in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

If this happens again (which is very likely, I fear):

I've been downloading videos with

https://flathub.org/apps/org.nickvision.tubeconverter (yt-dlp gui)

and watching them with mpv. Still looking for a Tube-Archivist/Pinchflat stlye app that doesn't download the whole channel (or makes me paste single URLs) but has a nice Freetube-like interface for downloading and watching offline ...

Gboard safe to use with network permission revoked? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[–] jlow@beehaw.org 2 points 1 day ago

You probably know about it but just in case you don't:

I use this for English and German (not for voice input or anything fancy) and it's perfect for me.

Need some clarity on atomic blue distros in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] jlow@beehaw.org 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, it works amazingly well, too. I've been rebasing between Bazzite and Kinoite a number of times in the last months (because Bazzite had some problems recognizing my drawing tablet which has been fixed now) without issue.

Be aware that "everything" is probably untrue, though. Most of the custom ROMs still have a lot of Google stuff that is hard to replace / get rid of even with MicroG etc. (e. g. Captive Portal Check still phones home to Google servers on Calyx OS - if not deactivated in settings). Graphene (only on Pixel Phones πŸ‘Œ) probably comes closest. For detailed analysis check: https://www.kuketz-blog.de/android-grapheneos-calyxos-und-co-unter-der-lupe-custom-roms-teil1/

(in German, use (Firefox?) translation if needed)

Which distro for older machine (with NVIDIA GPU) in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.ml
[–] jlow@beehaw.org 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

https://bazzite.gg/ has a (confusingly named) option for older GPUs, you can select the older series when going through the downloader selection options on the website. I've succesfully used that on a system where the "regular" image for newer GPUs didn't work.

If you can take walks in nature. If you have problems with letting go of intrusive thoughts while doing so, try listening to podcasts / audiobooks. Maybe try excercising, running or something similar?

Yeah, equating fascism to wearing a mask to stop spreading sickness is pushing it tinsy a bit.

"No posts found" in Local / Suscribed / All (beehaw.org)
 

After the update to 0.2.1 I can't view any posts via Eternity (writing this on Raccoon, my account is on Beehaw). Tried logging out and back in, then deleting and reinstalling the app and then logging back in. Still "No posts found", I can see my subscribes communities from left sidebar but they all have no posts as well. Same thing happened for me on Voyager a few months back, haven't used that since..

Any ideas what to do? Thanks! 😺

(Re-)imported project is not being added to the project list (Solved) (beehaw.org)

Been messing with Godot a few weeks ago, now I fired it up again and my project was marked as missing for some reason in the project list. Weird.

I cleared the missing project, imported it again (you can't do that with opening it at the same time?(1)) did some stuff, closed to Project Manager, the project is not in the list.

???

Reimported it again, closed to Project Manager again. Still not in the list. Restarted Godot, still nothing.

Any idea what could be going on? Using Godot 4.1.1 Stable on Fedora.

Thanks for any hints ^ __ ^

EDIT: Lol nevermind, it's there, it's just called β€žBasic FPSβ€œ for some reason and has a weird logo πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

KeepassXC: How to get Auto-Type working in KDE Wayland (beehaw.org)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by jlow@beehaw.org to c/foss@beehaw.org

EDIT: Lol, it doesn't actually work +___+ It is enabled in KeepassXC but it just doesn't do anything. Welp.

Here's a neat trick I just found out (with a hint from here):

In Wayland you can't use KeepassXC's very cool Auto-Type feature (it's somehow Qt's fault?) but if you installed it as a Flatpak you can go into KDE Settings, search for "Flatpak Permission Settings" and in the settings for KeepassXC under "Advanced" you can disable "Wayland Windowing System" to make it work. Nice!

Play next unwatched episode and not start at beginning when clicking on series? (beehaw.org)
 

Basically what the title says: Is it possible to make Jellyfin not start at episode one of a series but on the next unwatched episode (so the same as in Next Up?) when clicking play on a series (in home or in a library)?

I always seem to do this this a lot and it really confused me that it starts in the beginning and not the next episode I want to watch.

Thanks for any help!

Looks very cool, haven't bought it yet but I did (some) of their landscape course (by another person) which was excellent.

Course is here:
