Guinea pigs. They are just the best things ever

Just say shit. You are on the internet. You can say shit, piss, fuck, asshole, and even „Du kleiner hurensohn ich ficke deine mutter”.

For fucks sake piracy is not stealing

Piracy would be if you paywalled your meme, and someone takes it while still giving you credit. If someone takes something and dosent give you credit, its not piracy, but just being an ass

That’s the problem

Why do I need someone on Lemmy to tell me this when they have a whole 10 or so page website that could just as well detail this instead of the usual „Hey, your keyboard works on this distro”?

SystemD is really bloated tho

I’m not saying we should all be using runit, but with systemD making more and more services only work through their init system just creates more vendor lock in

Like, who needs a cronjob alternative that only works if you use SystemD, limiting your software to people using it and locking out everyone needing a less bloated init system like runit? And who needs a systemD calendar?

It was for a long time.

I use that on Hyprland for a year or 2 now

Great if you are allergic to using anything that dosent adhere to the latest design style, I guess

But the last installer was more than enough.

At that point why not just use something like rsync?

Sorry, I thought of Capcut. That’s the newest thing in the tiktok generation of people, because you don’t need any braincells to use it.

It is also proprietary, only has a windows build, and a Garbage tier on WineHQ.

Shotcut does not work on Linux.

Because especially for very low profile systems its more than enough, so you dont need to use something like vim or nvim.

What do computers have to do with it anyway?

Great, thanks

It is not for me personally, but for a person who wants a gui. And a Touch screen. Also I need an on Screen Keyboard because he also does not want to use a keyboard or mouse.

I tried using a very simple compositor like cage to just start shortwave, but I couldnt get my Keyboard to work since it needs gnome accessibility runtime to automatically show when clicking a text field.

And also xfce is more than light enough not to take up more than 1-2 secs of the total boot time

The flatpak thing was just the jellyfin-media-player so I can play my music from jellyfin too, but I guess ill just set up DLNA so I can stream to the device from my Phone

Yes, I personally use flatpak because I want a reliable way to update packages that are not in the native repositories. Still, I would love if it would be like snaps in the sense that I can use the native libraries and only install the app as flatpak.

Its just really frustrating to have to install the whole fricking gnome desktop again just so some flatpak can use it

Void Linux is the Definition of „lacks a few packages”

Sort of, actually

I was trying to build a PC just to play internet radio on using Shortwave, and a 30€ thin client with 4 1,5Ghz cores and no active cooling, 4 gigs of ram and an 8gb ssd were more than enough for that

where you you even get an 8gb ssd

I bought a Fujitsu thin client for 30€, and I decided to spend the 5€ extra to get one with a drive (making it 30€ total.

why would you use one outside of some specialized embedded application that shouldn’t even have a desktop interface?

1. I have way too much free time

2. I have no money

3. Originally it should only have been a minimal void Linux install so it can connect to my local server via RDP. But I just realised that that futro s920 with 4 1,5ghz cores is actually way faster and more reliable than my 4th gen Intel i5 will ever be

and even then why not something lighter than kde or gnome

I ssh’d into the PC. It runs xfce4, and it is just made to display shortwave (an Internet radio player) in full screen on a cashier terminal screen that I ripped from the terminal assembly. I just needed the cheapest thing to run shortwave on so my father has an Internet radio, since the other 2 options were

• buy a big ass Antenna for his normal radio, or

• buy a used Internet radio for 200€ (this way it only cost about 90€), wait until its Server is shut down, and then somehow with a mix of wireshark, dns logging, and pure luck somehow locally rerout the domain that the radio tries to connects to, figure out what kind of json file I need to host on my local server in order to make it refresh it’s database of Radios, and maintain these IPs forever.

also, please note, the image is in no way connected to this project, it just reminded me of it

Its a Fujitsu futro s920, got it off ebay

Why would you waste your energy and manage something yourself when they collect your data anyway?
