I see this topic come up often in conversations about degoogled Android and it makes me wonder what if anything I’m missing out on by just using cash/card for payments, cause not once have I been at checkout and thought to myself “man, I wish I could do this with my phone instead” but people talk about this like it’s almost a dealbreaker that makes it hard for them to seriously consider switching to Graphene or Lineage or whatever.

No character limit?!? sets my username to the entire script of Umineko

That’s why I whenever I download an appimage that I intend to use somewhat regurarly, I typically make a .desktop file for it in /usr/share/applications so it shows up in my app menu or rofi or dmenu or whatever and I don’t have to go looking for it. It also helps to have a folder you toss them all into

This is why Duolingo is a better friend than ChatGPT

すごい!

Eww why would you bring a Kira post here to the fediverse. Thought we were above this kind of slop here.

Take this with a grain of salt cause this is just what I’ve heard from a friend who knows a lot more about server hosting than I do, but from what I’ve heard hosting a Matrix homeserver is a potential legal liability unless you’re really selective about who you let on your server cause it stores the entire state of every room a user uses, so all it takes is one friend of a friend to visit a sketchy room where people have shared csam and you could be in trouble.

Assuming this is accurate and not just my friend misunderstanding something or being overly paranoid I could imagine people being very hesitant about hosting their own server rather than just using the default matrix.org server.

I think this is more malice than it is ineptitude tbh.

One of those meme distros like AmogOS or UwUntu that’s technically usable for a few months but then the hobbyist who made it stops giving a fuck and abandons it

Ah, I see we’re having some bear problems on our moonbase again

Now someone’s gotta combine the two and make GNU/Linux without GNU or Linux

This has been my exact issue with native Linux music players ever since I switched to Linux like a year and a half ago. I’ve been using MusicBee via Wine pretty successfully but not without some (mostly minor) bugs. No FOSS devs seemed to anticipate my niche use case of needing my Weasel Walter / Mary Halvorson / Peter Evans albums, my Weasel Walter / Mary Halvorson album, and my Weasel Walter / Peter Evans album to all sort into Weasel Walter’s discography while simultaneously the first two sort into Mary Halvorson’s discography and the first and third sort into Peter Evans’ discography, nor did they anticipate my need to tag an album as both Free Improvisation and Harsh Noise rather than sorting it into a separate third “Free Improvisation; Harsh Noise” category lol.

Lyrics? There are none, as that’s purely instrumental. Onomatopoeia? Assuming it’s a pure sine wave, probably just an “ooooooo” without any glottal plosive at the beginning. A pure sine wave wouldn’t be a “woooo”, that would be a sine wave with some kind of envelope filter or something at the beginning of it. It wouldn’t be “ooooOOOOOooooo” unless there’s an increase in amplitude in the middle or like, another additional sine wave of a slightly different frequency than the first and going in and out of phase with it or something along those lines. An “iiiiiiiiiii” sung in a head voice might be appropriate if the sine wave is really high in pitch.
