Not an alternative, but a good read nonetheless:

I have made voice calls with this in VirtualBox from a Linux host. Lacking support for VBoxGuestAdditions, it is not a great general solution, as you cannot easily bridge the gap between host/guest, however.

I have not tested QEMU.

despotic_machine, to asklemmy in What is your favorite hobby?

Both 😆 . I started with guerilla gardening, noticed trees are left alone more than small plants, then eventually bought some land where I now have about a thousand trees, some were there, most I have planted. It’s a permaculture-ish food forest incorporating regenerative Ag and carbon capture in the making.

I have a little nursery area where I sprout seeds and grow seedlings of all kind of trees and bushes and give them away and plant them wherever I can.

Going by your username, you also get your hands dirty. What’s your focus?

Planting trees.

@despotic_machine@lemmy.world avatar

That is typically the only solution as far as I know. I had this issue, resolved it in the BIOS, then I remapped a couple file manager shortcuts to avoid having to use the FN+ combo altogether, for the most part anyway.

despotic_machine, to linux in what caused you to get into Linux?
@despotic_machine@lemmy.world avatar

Windows ME came out. After installing it and wasting a bunch of time trying to get it to work reliably, I wiped the HDD and installed Debian potato instead. That was 23 years ago.

@despotic_machine@lemmy.world avatar

In general, I recommend adding Jackett to qbittorrent. It works great and is much better than the standard search add-ons.

For this specific request, AudioBook Bay has a 30 lesson Dutch section (in a large general pack) and is dated 2022 (also available via Jackett in qbittorrent).
