  • I consider myself long time noob ;)

    Fedora for me because it’s rock solid, has cutting edge software, excellent documentation.

    I,ve been updating the same installation more than 15 times i think.

    Against: selinux is often overlooked when following guides written for Debian / ubuntu. So sometimes you pull out your hair.

    On the other hand. Podman is supposedly the new favorite kid on the block. Fedora is on the front here




  • I am not sure this script will help. But I actually have a lot of cue/bin files from back when I ripped my cd collection. If I remember correctly, I played them through mediamonkey (ape files) or foobar. Windows user then… Most CD’s are either lost or in the back of the attic somewhere. I consider the files dead, but havent deleted them yet. I use plex which can’t play cue/bin files. This script might make my old cd collection come alive again…




  • On a related note? When my friend on proton send me (regular imap, openpgp) and several others (gmail, outlook) an email with all of us as recipients, it seems that proton cheats? I get to decrypt the message, where’s the others just read plain ø, unincrypted text.

    At first i thought this smart. But now i kind of realize how much of a nightmare this seems to be.

    On the other hand, i am not really sure how they do it? Is it to different mails, with fake headers? Or is it more like: if no encryption is available, show thisb (dentical) text instead?


  • Agree. A new EV needs to drive many years to offset the carbon emission during production of said car. The best thing you can do for the environment (if you want to drive a car) is to keep driving the car you already have. Second best it’s too but a used car. It’s horrendous. We give tax credits to incentives people to buy new conspicuous shit, while punishing those that keep their old, healthy cars.

    It’s totally Keyser Söze: the biggest trick the car industry pulled was convincing the public new, big EV cars were actually good for the environment.
