I first used XFCE on my old 700mhz processor Thinkpad back in the day. Back then, Gnome and especially KDE were known to use excessive resources on low-end machines so XFCE was preferred.

However, I actually quite liked the DE so I just switched to it permanently, even on my more capable machines. I’ve been running XFCE for around 15 years 😆

For YouTube content I really like the Tubular app on Android. It has Sponsorblock built-in, which you mentioned, but it also has an option to skip silence.

I find it particularly nice for gaming content, or any point where the YouTuber is reading text aloud.

I must have skipped hundreds of hours of pointless silence by this point

Yes, the game supports split screen local co-op on consoles and even on PC.

You can play through the first 2/3rds of the game in split screen with no trouble. However, in my experience it gets unstable in act 3 on Xbox Series X (probably also on PS5). Presumably it is something to do with the limited memory on consoles, so if your PC has great specs it should work there.

They are planning an update due next month which is supposed to address the crashing, but it remains to be seen.

I think currently the best experience on consoles is to have two copies of the game on separate consoles.

The patch 7 update also will supposedly add cross platform multiplayer, so you could have one player on console and one on PC, since you probably don’t have two Xboxes, but again, it remains to be seen

Not to mention, OP didn’t specify where they live. Who knows defamation law for the whole world?

Lmao so he’s just swimming back across the river with the goat!

Someone should try animating these solutions. I’m picturing close-ups of the goat wondering why the man has lost his mind

I recall using Web Spider on Netscape Navigator circa 1997 or so. Then Yahoo! was the big deal for a few years before Google

The -p <port> option can be used to specify the port number to connect to when using the ssh command on Linux. The -P <port> (note: capital P) option can be used with SFTP and scp.

Why is it that the switch on ssh is -p but in scp/sftp it is -P?

This has caused me a real headache in the past as ssh doesn’t throw an error message when you use a switch like “ssh -P 8080”

“an sequel”? Tell me I haven’t been saying it wrong this whole time 💀

I was going to disagree with you by using AI to generate my response, but the generated response was easily recognizable as non-human. You may be onto something lol

TIL about error 418:

“I’m a teapot This server is a teapot, and it cannot brew coffee.”

Apparently it was originally added as an April fools joke way back in 1998 but technically it is a valid error message that sites can actually use!

How could you not include the classic printer lp0 on fire!

I actually got that one around 2010 on Ubuntu. The printer wasn’t actually on fire. If I recall it was caused by the network attached printer losing connection during a job

Suppose you were saying that about me. How would I prove you wrong? How could a thinking being express that it is actually sentient to meet your standards?

Maybe an app like FakeStandby would work.

If your device has an AMOLED screen it should be basically the same as having the screen turned off. You could just disable the screen timeout and use FakeStandby to turn off all the pixels without actually “turning off” the screen

you aren’t necessarily yet violating GPLv2, but you’re removing a technical protection measure which is a violation of the DMCA.

Isn’t overcoming a technical limit a violation itself? That’s what made DeCSS illegal. They didn’t have to prove anyone was actually copying DVDs with it, just that DeCSS could allow you to copy a DVD

Good point. Many of us didn’t get to choose whether we “are political”

Thank you for breaking my brain

I got it to launch but I only got about 15 FPS.

So it is at least possible. My PC is pretty outdated so it might work for you if you have a good graphics card with good drivers
