I mean Amazon did this for their mp3s. It was literally just an id3 tag with a unique identifier. Not hard to remove but “good enough” to keep regular people from overly distributing it. You’ll never win against the real Pirate community no matter what you do, so just give people real incentive to buy and actually own.
Grimm Fandango (one of the best games ever made) along with Myst and Riven also run on Scummvm!
Cdparanoia to make sure I get a good rip. Then flacenc to convert to flac. Then Picard to tag and organize it.
Windows 95 crashing for the 5th time that day corrupting another high school paper.
I knew nothing about Linux, but bought a red hat 6 cd and installed it. I never dual booted or ever went back.
This was in the day of getting a modem that actually worked on Linux was a PITA as everything had turned into software based winmodems. And it wasn’t like you could just order one online. You had better have hoped Best Buy/circuit city/compusa had something.
Lindows. I can’t believe it still exists in some form…
This is sad. I still prefer xorg over Wayland. I have so many small customizations that depend on devilspie, wnck, and other tools that don’t have a complete Wayland replacement yet.
I also have a framework 13. It has been great! I run the latest fedora and everything works great out of the box.
My only annoyance is fedora disable hibernate by default and now that s2idle is the default instead of s3, too much battery is used while sleeping. That said, it isn’t difficult to enable s3 and hibernate.
I use s3 deep sleep which then hibernates after and hour. Works great for me as I don’t do work on my personal laptop so I’m only using it on evenings and weekends.
It generally works well for me. I am running an older version of frigate that uses the COCO model (I think you can have custom models now).
You can specify different object along with thresholds. My dog occasionally shows up as a false positive, and the only time it misses a person is when it is really dark and the person doesn’t enter full frame long enough.
My fan rarely turns on even as a developer.
I have a framework laptop that I run Linux on. It has been a fantastic machine so far!
Me too. I use it with Frigate NVR. What other things are people using them for?
Vikunja is very slick!
Youtube channels (I unsubscribed from everything on my YouTube account, hardly ever login, and only use RSS to follow the channels I want)
This is the way to do it. I can’t stand youtube’s interface and its recommendations, auto play, and other anti-features frustrate me. I find that on youtube, when I go look at a channel, I often can’t figure out which video is the most recent, and really struggle to see figure out what I’ve watched and what I haven’t.
Using RSS let’s me see when there is a new video posted just from the channels I am interested in. I don’t have to go hunting. FreshRSS will watch it through youtube-nocookie.com, but I often find using yt-dlp is better experience, especially for anything longer than 5 minutes.
Parent’s is more complicated, but this simple script may be a good place to start. In this case, I follow a channel that posts new music videos for discovery. This automatically downloads (just the audio) using yt-dlp to a local directory. It could easily be modified to download the video (just change the -f flag). I run this with cron once a day.

I use freshrss. It is my primary source of information. Here are some of the things I follow:
Nextcloud is nice since iPhone natively supports caldav/carddav so you can use the built in reminders app.
Interesting. I don’t see this issue.
I have a dedicated music player with all my favorite music for offline listening (fiio x3 and also a pinephone with lollipop)
I also have a Jellyfin server and use finamp on my phone. It isn’t public so I have an always on WireGuard vpn.
For my stereo, I have a raspberry pi hooked up. It runs mpd and mounts the same music directory as Jellyfin using nfs.
The raspberry pi also has an nfc reader and I have nfc cards with printed artwork on them. Tapping them to the reader starts playing that album.
How does ERPnext compare to dolibarr?
