Free = libre, not gratis

Probably not what you want to hear, but I think exiftool + bash script really is the way to go. A few years ago I had a similar need and searched for hours online… I ended up hacking together a “good enough” bash script that reads all the dates of my pictures and does some stuff. It took 30 mins of reading some basic bash scripting basics. Way less time than searching for a tool that probably doesnt exist.

In 2024, you can probably just ask chatgpt to write a quick and dirty bash script for you and it might require another 10mins of debugging/begging chatgpt to fix its mistakes

Signal is fine for almost everyone unless you’re truly doing dangerous work in a truly oppressive state.

I’m so tired of everyone telling others not to use signal because it uses phone numbers. Everyone in here acting like they’re mr. Robot or something.

Anonymity is not the same as privacy. Privacy is good enough for me

Newer versions of apt now have coloured text showing what will be installed (green) and what will be REMOVED (red)

Handy feature for someone like me who also makes mistakes

Doesnt mean it’s dead. Some projects are in maintenance mode

How many new features does a bible need???

AndBible updated 2 months ago for me on f-droid

The github doesnt look dead to me

Yes. Mounted network drives.

I think a lot of the shutdown hang problems went away when i switched to systemd automount

There is a good statistically proven reason why so much money flows into it.

Too many smug people think, “advertising doesnt work on me! Hah! Only weak minded normies fall for it…”

Wrong… Advertising works. And that’s the reason a shit ton of money that goes into it.

You want to know the reason why i run adblockers in my browser AND DNS levels? Because i KNOW advertising works on me… i KNOW i’m not smart enough to outsmart the army of engineers, and copywriters generating this stuff.

Source: i work in advertising lol

This isnt freeware.

“Free” in free software is free like free speech, not free as in beer.

This is one of the places where english fails. Libre vs gratis

This is not an OS behaviour. KDE is a desktop environment.

If it bothers you so much, remove the DE and use the command line, full time

I had Youtube premium when it included google play music. GPM was so good…

I unsubscribed everything when they changed to youtube music. Terrible music platform

Service guarantees citizenship!

Would you like to know more?

Framework would be an instant buy for me if not the 3:2 screen. I’m not a developer, so there’s no upside for me

I just want the repairability

I have to use windoze for my work laptop…

15% cpu constantly being used by bullshit telemetry processes. Gigs of RAM also being eaten up by bullshit processes and “try copilot!!” popups every time i accidently make the wrong gesture on the touchpad.

My 9 year old laptop with only 8GB RAM running debian is blazing fast in comparison.

Having children, at this juncture, with what we know, is profoundly selfish

Not just having children, but raising them to continue the same “driving huge SUV everywhere” costco lifestyle that got us into this mess

Wait what? Republicans said they fuck couches? I’m out of the loop here.

Most likely x11 vs wayland

Sorry, i dont have all the links available, but the root cause of the problem is apparently with the amdgpu driver

Kscreen was supposed to implement some kind of workaround, but i lost track of how that was going.

I’ve had this problem for years. I contributed to one of the existing bug reports for kscreen on this.

If i dont login to kde (sddm login screen), the screens will shut off normally… But once i login, the problem starts. So i concluded the problem is with kscreen2. I even tested by killijg kscreen2 and the problem goes away

And rob your coworkers of the joy of seeing the cat point his butthole directly at the camera???

Cats showing up in the middle of meetings is the best part of meetings
