Yeah, it’s similar enough to tar.gz to always confuse me.
I like how KDE has been getting faster and faster as time went on. Like Lisa Simpson’s perpetuum mobile.
With docker-compose it’s almost there. Putting everything into a script with sensible defaults asking just for what is absolutely necessary should be relatively easy. It’s just that nobody bothered to do that.
Of course, if you want to have a performant instance with more than one user you will have to tweak everything according to your needs. But to simply get up and running isn’t that hard.
You never know.
Stop staring at my cable box. I don’t have a problem!
I like the trash to hook up any hard drive via USB.
Yeah, any additional VPN is unnecessary.
I guess the VPN adds an additional layer of authentication. And of course everything is encrypted by default which might otherwise not be the case.
Plus, with a VPN you can access multiple services.
They read the sentence “Yt-dlp and a cron job” which triggered a hormonal reaction in their brain which they linked to arousal due to prior experience. They used this as an opportunity to retreat to a more private setting and indulge in auto erotic stimulation.
Just make sure to keep the machine updated.
Don’t think so. Maybe ffmpeg can do that.
Yeah, if you have the cloud folder already mounted it should be trivial to re-encode the videos with Handbrake and using the cloud folder as the output directory.
What is your end goal? Do you want to back up your videos with minimal storage costs? Compression won’t help you (because videos are already compressed) unless you can accept data loss through re-encoding. Handbrake (or pure ffmpeg) would be the tool to re-encode lots of files. This could save you space but you may have some loss of quality, depending on the configuration you use and how the original videos are encoded.
If you just want the videos to be available for streaming, tools like Jellyfin or Emby would do the job. They are servers that re-encode your media for streaming on the fly, depending on the client capabilities and your bandwidth settings.
When you want to find something in a different path than your current one you have to supply it as the first argument. When you try to do find -name foo.bar /path
it will complain that the path should be the first argument. So it knows what you’re trying to do and instead of doing it it just complaints.
Was the other way around for me. F-stab just makes no sense.
If I get my files already compressed they stay that way. If I rip something like a DVD I will just encode it in whatever is good at the moment. Re-encoding usually only makes sense if you can drastically reduce filesize. If you go from one lossy format to another you will always lose quality. So if that just means slightly smaller files I wouldn’t do it.
If you don’t have a floppy disk to boot into the optimal memory configuration for your game, what are you even doing with your life?
I have Ventoy on a MicroSD card for my Steam Deck. Saved my ass the other day.
Really surprised when I randomly found out that my tech illiterate friend was running Linux. Back in 2014 or so. Ubuntu. Was no big deal for her. It did everything she wanted.
I’m too lazy but is Microsoft’s Azure Linux on there as well?
