TimLovesTech, to piracy in Is there a Universal Playlist which is privacy friendly?
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

I remember some time ago someone on here had created a site that allowed you to sign up for a time slot to DJ from their site with your own playlist. People could also write in to the DJ currently on and request songs as well.

There is also Funkwhale that allows you to share your collection and listen to others that choose to share as well.

I think most of that can be taken from here: join-lemmy.org/donate. If you click through each donation method they each list goals/monthly intake.

EDIT - Minus crypto of course!

TimLovesTech, to linux in Canonical's Steam Snap is Causing Headaches for Valve
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

I think Debian has a place in the Desktop market, it’s just not gamers or anyone wanting anything new (unless they of course go the flatpak route). Not a perfect analogy, but it’s kinda like gaming on Windows 7 these days because it “just works” for you. Sure you can, but you’re not getting the best of anything that way and all the underlying libraries are outdated and some things just aren’t going to work at all.

If you want, or are interested in looking at an easier to manage Arch install I would suggest CachyOS, EndeavorOS, or Garuda Linux.

I think if we could drag users (at least gamers) away from these Debian/Ubuntu based distros we could have developers just shipping packages that wouldn’t need to be compatible with some ancient LTS library release, and maybe we wouldn’t need appimage/flatpak/snap at all anymore (or at least only in rare cases).

I’m sure Canonical’s neverending death march towards Snap, along with the OS running outdated packages, is why Valve no longer uses Ubuntu for SteamOS development. The greatest April Fools was Ubuntu dropping Snaps because so many people were saying how they could go back to using Ubuntu again…then they noticed it was a joke and the sadness set in.

TimLovesTech, to linux in Which terminal emulator do you use?
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

xfce4-terminal - because it’s easy to config, I like tabs, and it has good Unicode support.

TimLovesTech, to linux in New Linux user here. Is this really how I'm supposed to install apps on Linux?
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

Yeah, how Ubuntu is supposed to be noob friendly and continues to be recommended blows my mind. Seems like every stupid app you want to install needs you to add a ppa that is almost guaranteed to break on the next major update. And ugh snaps …

@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

This could be a long shot, but since your instance is running on a .zip TLD it could be blocked at a webserver level (the whole .zip TLD not your instance specifically) like a lot of admins did when they were launched.

TimLovesTech, to piracy in Where to find flac and other lossless file types
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

Depending on what you are looking for etree has lots of music in flac. They have a BT site also @ etree.org.

John Oliver did a great show on chocolate around Halloween time. It showed just how much child labor goes into producing chocolate for the world, when almost no one really spends any time thinking about where it comes from.
