Damn, they might pull me back from kde plasma.

I’ve found Shotcut to be more stable than Kdenlive. Tho I haven’t tried the latest kdenlive yet. Both have glaxnimate support so motion graphics is possible with both.

+1 for kdenlive

I used Sony Vegas/what ever it’s called now for years, moving to kdenlive was pretty painless and I don’t feel like I’m missing any features.

GustavoM, in Linus Torvalds on the state of Linux today and how AI figures in its future
@GustavoM@lemmy.world avatar

If that means an AI-assistant of sorts (like “that OS name that cannot be spoketh”) I’m game.

Will that make some users freak out and make it sound like its doomsday, even if they implement a on/off toggle to the AI assistant? Probably.

The Linux Foundation and Kernel devs don’t really deal with the OS layer much. This is something that would need to be implemented at the desktop environment level; like GNOME or KDE. Neither LF nor Linus Torvalds has any say over that.

Black616Angel,

An AI assistant has nothing to do with the kernel and will never be in it.

It’s something for user space and can be done already. This is for the distro maintainers to decide.

ExLisper,

What if AI will start contributing to the kernel end ends including AI there?

Black616Angel,

Then it’s over. We can tear it all down and start new.

Openshot for me. It’s very lightweight and hassle-free.

I was both surprised and impressed with Kdenlive.

QuazarOmega,

Huh, how come I’ve never heard about this, but it looks so professional (?), at least for the website presentation.
Is it better than the common Kdenlive and Blender in your experience?

I used shotcut a lot and it’s fantastic.

The_Zen_Cow_Says_Mu, (edited ) in Switching to Debian on my gaming pc

Currently running debian with an amd GPU. Using the regular 6.1 kernel

With steam flatpak and bottles (for nonsteam windows games) everything is running just fine.

selokichtli, (edited ) in Switching to Debian on my gaming pc

If Debian Stable supports your hardware, go for it. If not, try Debian Sid, but it won’t be as stable. You can install up-to-date applications, like Steam, using flatpaks in any case.

Even if you opt for stable and there’s an update that you may take advantage from, you can always update your kernel in several ways or change to Debian Sid (unstable), but you can’t go back unless you change to Debian Testing and then wait the freeze of Testing which then becomes Debian Stable.

cbarrick, (edited ) in The Wine development release 9.0-rc1 is now available

That page is a pain to read on mobile. I copied the main part of the announcement here for readability.

The Wine development release 9.0-rc1 is now available.

This is the first release candidate for the upcoming Wine 9.0. It marks the beginning of the yearly code freeze period. Please give this release a good testing and report any issue that you find, to help us make the final 9.0 as good as possible.

What’s new in this release:

  • Bundled vkd3d upgraded to version 1.10.
  • Support for DH encryption keys with a recent GnuTLS.
  • Keyboard layouts support in the Wayland driver.
  • Various bug fixes.

The source is available at:

dl.winehq.org/wine/source/…/wine-9.0-rc1.tar.xz

Binary packages for various distributions will be available from:

www.winehq.org/download

You will find documentation on www.winehq.org/documentation

You can also get the current source directly from the git repository. Check www.winehq.org/git for details.

Wine is available thanks to the work of many people. See the file AUTHORS in the distribution for the complete list.

Detailed contributions are given in the announcement.

Auli, in What are the differences between linux distributions?

Really nothing. Want to distribute hop without the hassle change your theme.

cmeerw, in Can one recover from an accidental rm -rf of system directories by copying those files back in from a backup?

Only issue is they’re stored in my server as belonging to the server user (I assume everything in those directories should belong to root and I can just use chown?) But I also don’t know if they retain the same permissions when backed up.

Not everything will be owned by root, and some of the binaries will be setuid or setgid, some might even have extended attributes (e.g. ping will usually have a security.capability attribute). /var will also have a lot of different owners.

merthyr1831, in Can one recover from an accidental rm -rf of system directories by copying those files back in from a backup?

I did a similar fucky-wucky before and honestly i just cut my losses and backed up the user data before reinstalling the OS from scratch. Took a few days of tinkering to get my system back to where it was but there’s no telling what kind of system you’ll be left with when you merge a known good image with a broken system.

indigomirage, (edited ) in Video editor for Linux?

I had the most luck with shotcut. I’ve been meaning to try kdenlive again though but there were a few fx I needed that immediately apparent in shotcut that I could not find quickly in kdenlive.

I suspect kdenlive has it covered but timelines dictated that I not change horses mid race, and I haven’t got back to retry.

Basically, either is good!

UnfortunateShort,

Shotcut is great, especially because ffmpeg, GPU acceleration and very easy to learn workflows (although admittedly not so intuitive that you get them right away).

I don’t know about Kdenlive, but I tried Openshot and found it to be much slower and lacking functionality, although it’s even easier to use for the basics.

indigomirage,

I actually want to give kdenlive another shot. But since I already figured out the keyframe mechanics in shotcut it was a too tall an order to relearn a new WY to do it in short order (clock was ticking for me to get a video done for a kid’s b-day!)
