How is it so fast?


Messaging: If you ever have a secondary phone, like for your job, install there whatsapp for business related matters and add your personal account. Connect to web.whatsapp.com from your personal phone enabling desktop view and get the QR. Then, on your business phone, on your personal account, go to the add another device menu to read the QR. Save the app. Reescan the QR every 2 weeks (when it logs out). The interface is sh*t for mobile, but it works.


Actually, I have never used piped and invidious to watch the videos themselves. I use them just as subscription feeds and in case I need to search for some video, then I toggle a script I have, I copy the links to the videos I want to watch and I untoggle the script. Then the links I copied start playing on mpv. I don’t like to overload piped and invidious services, which I would say is the main reason for them to be shut down, when I can watch/download the video through mpv-ytdlp on my own. Although, I don’t know if that answers your question.
Well, actually, many google services perform worse on my computers when I’m using firefox than when I’m using some chromium based browser.


I use budspencer theme on fish. https://github.com/oh-my-fish/oh-my-fish/blob/master/docs/Themes.md#budspencer-theme It looks cool and yellow, which I like. I prints the path on the far right and parent folders are printed only with initial letter, so it doesn’t take 2 lines in the shell and it ends up pretty short. It also has git integration and some budspencer exclusive commands to perform some cools actions, I don’t care about and I have never used. Also, I like that command errors are displayed as ✔ or ✘ on the next prompt. It also prints the time the last command has been running. I use vi keybidings, so prompt color changes when I change the mode feel cool. I would also like to have the execution time for every command, but I have another theme for that I don’t remember the name of on my work machine.


I like your solution! Thank you.
About my computers: I have 2 1GB RAM laptops. One has 20-25 years the other one 10-15. I have tried Puppy and antiX in these. And I personally prefer antix on them. Another 4GB laptop that might be around 8 but is pretty trash as it was a gift from our bank (it was able to run Elementary OS, it was fine). A kind of old computer but with 4GB RAM (Think I have XFCE or Cinnamon Mint on it). And a big boy with 16GB and a pretty good CPU. And the oldest computers are used the least often (maybe once a year) while the middle computer might be used 20 times a year and the last one maybe once every week.
So I believe something like antix would work, but I’m not sure if the USB way would. Seems like they would lose their pendrives the second day.


I have lately experienced a problem with my family. We have good computers, kind of bad computers and really bad and old computers. I can install a really cool distro on good computers, but not on the bad ones. I need a lighter DE on bad computers and a distro ready for old computers. But my family can’t afford to learn how to use the 3 of them. So what is the solution here?
I’m thinking about installing the same distribution on all of them so that they don’t have to get used to a new one every time they jump from one to another computer. I think that will be antiX.


I used to use libreddit or teddit. But they are unviable now because of the amount of requests. So I sometimes try to check if there is something interesting about SSBM, which is the only subreddit that is not on lemmy which I’m kind of interested in, but I get the same error many of the times. But it doesn’t really matter, if you ignore reddit’s existence, you will feel no attachment to it.
Why did I hear Ralph’s voice inside my head?


You will get already many responses to your question. Let me answer you the opposite.
I concluded after starting using FOSS software, that it was much easier to find high quality programs searching by “open source [feature I want]” or “[program] alternative open source” and I have lost hours and hours searching, installing and cleaning my PC because of malware I downloaded.
Although with Void I forget I’m on a rolling release


He just updated the link to fix the login error.


ehm, this seems really really suspicious. Directly downloading an apk from a strange link…
I would’ve preferred if you had linked the following URL: https://mastodon.social/@pixelfed/109618139027744923 (a confirmation by dansup itself about the android app https://mastodon.social/@dansup/109618561554783472)
This can actually be understood in several ways. And that is nice. My favourite: weight.
I have doubts. Which of them is the one that does not exist (at least in earth)?
I’m just happy using pass. I made several scripts to create new passwords and get usernames and passwords. I may end up using a GUI some day though, but not yet. And if I have more contents on encrypted files, I just use pass from the command line. I like having everything on git and the repository itself on a USB stick. Although I’m currently curious at Himitsu. If I have time I might try it.
That’s true. I made slow jumps on right one too.
Although, technically, you could jump in the wall if you ever go between one of those columns.
I don’t care about music. I keep listening to the same music folder since 2010 so that I don’t fall asleep while driving. Although lately I have been including some anime music I have been encountering. In case it is to listen something in the computer, I use the cheapest gear possible.
