0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Is CCleaner still people's preferred computer cleaning app?

Haven’t tried BleachBit on Windows. Does it clean driver installation logs, compress browser databases, MRU explorer cache, opd prefetch files, Windows updates, etc.?

It was a joke, a meme, nothing more, meant to amuse. No promotion intended.

0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Lesbians of lemmy, how do you introduce your SO to other people without getting them confused for just a friend?

Can’t get nore direct than that 🤣🤣🤣.

That requires a different mindset and (maybe) a different level of eveolution. Food is free, you take what you need. Services are free, if your house needs something fixed, you call the adequate people, they do the job, that’s it. Same for healthcare, you just go to the doctor, no bill, you just leave (we used to have that around here). Tech products are free, you take what you need (TV, stereo, phone, PC, etc.). You go to work and do the same as everyone else, do your job and go home.

This is a very simplified version and as I said, it requires a different mindset. We’re not used to that right now, it’s alien to us.

Yes, there was a war, but there were a lot of factors that contributed to that, including the US medling in internal affairs. In general, up until the death of Tito, everything was pretty much OK. The turmoils began after his death.

Actually, it’s not that silly, TCP/IP is built on that model, so are many other protocols. Though yes, it can be done better.

0x4E4F, to linux in Is there any way I can make an old XMMS plugin work in any modern player?

I have the original source for some of them, but very few, like maybe 1 or 2%.

Doesn’t matter, I’m just gonna redownload them in flac, store them on optical media as flac and keep them as HE-AAC on my NAS for local playback. It’s the only option that’s acceptable in my mind.

The output is not valid, it won’t do anything… maybe write to a file “anarchism” in the dir in which the terminal was opened.

0x4E4F, to linux in Noticed a strange occurrence where my monitor buttons will not react to presses when certain conditions are met

Well, it’s not a hardware problem in that case 😉. Good thing you fixed it 👍.

Hmm… didn’t know that… but that makes sense 👍… the overflows I mean… good tip, thanks 😉.

You should also probably try and see if the same thing happens in a VM. The flash drive might be failing and I don’t think Void does CRC checks of files when copying them… definitely not when funning them, like the installer for example.

EDIT: I remember the installer bringing me back to the partitioning setup, but that’s because I partition manually, not through the Void installer, so the installer thinks that that step is skipped. No worries though, just go to the end of the installer setup and continue with the provided settings. If an adequate target partition has been set, it will install Void.

0x4E4F, (edited ) to linux in Help me decide my first distro for Audio.

What, they don’t offer binaries 🤨?

Well, at least there is one thing that makes building on Void easier. xbps-src works with templates, so you could just write the template or write on GitHub for help from someone in the Void community. I’ve asked for help many times and people are usually very helpful ☺️. Once you have the template, updating the VST is a matter of just chaging a few things in it (version, hash, etc.) since things like UI dependencies or libraries don’t change that often in releases, those are major changes and usually come with a prior warning by the developer. Meaning, you could just make the template and just change the version numbers and hashes, recompile it and most of the time, that will be just that, bam, you’re up to date ☺️. Sure, there are major updates, but let’s face it, there are very rare. And, you can share the template with others on the official void xbps-src repo or your own repo, however you like 😉. Hell, you could even share the binaries so that other people don’t have to go through the trouble of compiling them manually 😉.

and I will not ask for the meaning of 20047 or the Englishy greenish color 😉

It’s NO in ASCII and I’m not a native English speaker… and this thing doesn’t have auto correct, underline or suggestions 😒 (Jerboa).

The correct way to share a community on Lemmy (so that apps recognize it as a Lemmy community) is with an exclamation mark, as in your last example. The search in Jerboa (as is with other apps) is broken, doesn’t work like it should. Use the web UI search on your instance, you’ll find the community.

I would argue that now, it’s as user friendly as Reddit is. But, alas, now is too late 😔. There was a wave of instances dissappearing over night (vlemmy, fmhy, etc.), mods abusing power and… well, that crowd just felt safer with commercial media. At least their data and shared images won’t drown into oblivion if an instance owner decided to just close shop 🤷.

0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook?

It didn’t use to be like that after the first wave, with comms such as sewing, there were some gardening subs as well… the only one that kinda took off was the woodworking sub, that’s it.

I opened a few subs myself, related to tech, but not really computer related, none of them took off, only a few posts at the beginning and that was basically it, no new posts whatsoever.
