Debian.

TCB13, 1 year ago to linux in Just learned about AppImageLauncher

Because it only lets you copy to the clipboard, lol.

Fair enough. :P

TCB13, 1 year ago to linux in What has been your experience with Flatpak?

Perfection. Debian + GNOME Software + Flatpak = Rock solid and clean OS with the latest software.

There are a few things that still need to be ironed out tho. For eg. communication between desktop apps and browser extensions such as this.

Another thing I would like to see is a decent and supported way to mirror flathub and/or have offline installations.

Performance… or lack of it. Overhead.

TCB13, 1 year ago to linux in Just learned about AppImageLauncher

Some apps are only available as appimages.

Yeah I know, I was just joking around, still AppImages are annoying.

TCB13, 1 year ago to linux in Just learned about AppImageLauncher

Appimage and snap. Why no flatpak?

I know why. They’re most likely running into this scenario as well.

TCB13, 1 year ago to linux in Just learned about AppImageLauncher

The best launcher you can get for AppImages is to just drop the thing and move to Flatpaks that don’t take 2 seconds to launch apps.

All they need to do is request the content from you, watch you send to them, and make a record of your ip address. The blacklist, maybe protects you. No idea

Yes I’m aware of this fact. And I’m not saying what I do is for anyone and everyone, not even suggesting it.

Here is the information on the list I’m using: www.iblocklist.com/list?list=ydxerpxkpcfqjaybcssw

TCB13, 1 year ago to piracy in Brazil Regulator Claims "80% of Pirate TV Boxes" Were Blocked Last Week * TorrentFreak

Yeah but those will get pirated content either way. The problem is the 80% that won’t be able to do it as just trash the boxes.

if you’re paying for a vpn, then paying for usenet is no different.

But I’m not. The only thing I’m going is requiring encrypting from all peers and using this blacklist.

Guess I’m a fucking legend 😂 😂

TCB13, 1 year ago to piracy in Usenet

Torrents certainly still have their place, but Usenet is just generally superior in all aspects,

Yeah something payed, closed and not open is certainly better. lol

TCB13, 1 year ago to piracy in Usenet

torrents are typically 1-2mbps maybe 3 if you’re lucky and if you’re not it can take days to complete

That’s not my experience at all, I’m usually downloading at around 200-350Mbps (can’t do more that’s the limit of my connection) on TV shows etc.

TCB13, 1 year ago to piracy in Usenet

I don’t have speed issues with torrents / soulseek for that tho. Can still be encrypted.

TCB13, 1 year ago to piracy in Usenet

What’s the point of paying for piracy?

TCB13, 1 year ago to piracy in Usenet

How and why is Usenet still a thing? Damn.
