I can’t help but feel bad for Dylan. It’s not like if he hadn’t done this someone else wouldn’t have had to eventually.
Born 1983, He/him, Danish AuDD introvert that’s surfed the internet since he was a teen (1996 onwards).

Update: After reading through many comments, a lot of people mentioned their affinity for foobar2000-style players, and fooyin came up as the most frequent suggestion. I haven’t tested it, but it seems to be very popular. If you want even more options, fooyin comes highly recommended by a lot of people.


Isn’t this the kind of threat that payment processors made to Steam regarding some NSFW games? I believe it was an Australian “grassroot” campaign that led to the latest ban of many Steam (and Itch.io) games, and the threat was payment processors stop working with Steam.

This is the power they have now, imagine a cashless society…
That’s the one good thing about just-eat leaving Denmark, no more having to deal with that BS.
This is excellent news! I know that Nobara and PikaOS were already code sharing for some stuff like the driver manager, so I’m happy to see them deepen that bond and bring others aboard.
This reads like a classic LinkedinLunatics post and I love it. Great parody!


Aye! I was rummaging around his socials hoping he was on peertube as well, but alas.


That “Someone” turns out to just be Action Retro. Classic. But then again, maybe everyone isn’t already watching his wacky content regularly like I am.
But at what cost… At what cost…
I did consider taking a screenshot before the edit from POW to POV, but eh.
Prisoner of war?


I really liked the GUI of WinRar, but I no longer consider proprietary software to be an option.
Yeah, I don’t know about WinRar either, and I even bought a license back in 2010, so I guess I shouldn’t feel bad for using it, it’s just that I want to support FOSS more these days.
I am still pining for a Qt GUI compression/extraction killer app, that feels fully featured and able to handle it all. As it is, I keep three different ones installed, to meet my needs and mostly satisfy my workflow.
I believe Ark isn’t happy extracting a lot of r01, r02 etc. files or maybe it was passworded filed it struggled with, but that’s why I found PeaZip to begin with.


Thanks for reminding me. I was still on 10.4. A shame this isn’t in the Fedora repositories, it’s nice to have GUI alternatives to Ark as that isn’t exactly perfect.


Over the summer Zypper got a huge speed upgrade after decades of being one of the slowest package managers, and while Hayden James did give Zypper “the best score” (not really, (except if you assume they all got 5 in ecosystem size) all of them got 17, except Pacman that got 16), it would’ve been nice of them to mention that as I’m sure lots of people probably still have this idea of Zypper being sluggish and taking forever.
In fact, seeing as how APT is limited on simultaneous downloads, I’d wager that Zypper is actually faster than APT now. Probably faster than Nala as well.
It’s something I noticed this last half year, how the kernel has just ballooned, especially for us nvidia users.
Over on Nobara they did at one point recommend this, but has since been removed from their wiki, but:
echo 'omit_drivers+=" nvidia nvidia-drm nvidia-modeset nvidia-peermem nvidia-uvm "' | sudo tee /usr/lib/dracut/dracut.conf.d/99-nvidia.conf
and then rebuilding initramfs:
sudo dracut -f --regenerate-all
It certainly helps me a lot as I’m stuck with a 1GB /boot partition, although I see why it’s not recommended as those with LUKS set up will have problems.


It’s a stock photo. Found it by searching on ecosia for “bald bearded man screaming at camera stock-photo” hehe
That’s what I do in bash except for pressing up it’s ctrl+r. FZF does the fuzzy finding for me. It’s so convenient.
It's nice to see the MX Linux team, and in particular Dolphin_Oracle, are still based like that.
I started out on MX Linux as my intro to linux back in early 2024 and it was partly because of their SystemD stand, and partly because the distro shipped with a lot of nice custom GUI tools for noobs like myself.
It’s also a quite lightweight distro if you choose SysVinit + Fluxbox. I’m just a bit sad they no longer offer a 32-bit version.
The only reason I switched away was because the Debian base felt quite stale, that is, for what I wanted to play around with. Still kept it around for a year.
Good idea! And here I was just about to send death threats to Dylan Taylor.
