So far fine in FreeTube, touch wood.

I've had MeGusta at top weight for quite a while (years I think), should probably try ELiTE, wonder what the bitrate diff is...

Interesting, do you have an automated workflow for this?

[-] MalReynolds@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago

You're welcome to your opinion ;)

Fair cop on the inconveniences, although I've found it fine after an adaption phase, coming from fedora it was lesser than hopping to a new distro. Hard agree on knowing the nuances being problematic, clarity and accessible education is sorely missing, certainly the steepest part of the learning curve.

I just run 'distrobox upgrade -all' in my Daily.service, didn't need quadlets (although after adaption I quite like them for containers now).

Why would I use a system that isn’t supposed to change if I want to change it?

There's a bunch of benefits, atomic updates, intrinsic rollback, security of immutability, safe automatic updating and it goes on. Some things are not quite ready yet, e.g. things like sddm which should probably install themes to /etc (which they're working on), so as often happens in linux, workarounds ensue. Making one directory mutable does not destroy all the benefits.

[-] MalReynolds@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I had that at the beginning, then added to my fstab

#enable sddm and therefore good themes
/var/sddm /usr/share/sddm none rbind 0 0

and KDE themes with sddm components install fine now (most themes install fine into /home, does Gnome really not have per user themes?)

Essentially you can tactically make things mutable as needed, use sparingly, but maybe not even trying lessens your opinion, no?

/var/sddm /usr/share/sddm none rbind 0 0

and then it works, kludgy, but sddm is apparently working on allowing themes in /etc, sometime soon.

Inconvenient package management

Fair.

If there's a flatpak, no problem.

Once you realize you do package management in distroboxes rather than the main OS (rpm-ostree etc), no problem, plus you have the AUR at your disposal.

So Ima go not fair, although there is something of an education gap atm.

I was just colloquially referring to away from Earth as North.

Here we are with a community celebrating art, some of us might like to archive it. But no, inevitably it's google 'owned' transcoded, WebP. I have an extension to re-encode back to an old format, but that's lossy-lossy transcoding, not good. I suspect it's a Lemmy thing, but what would it take to get non-lossy here?

Isn't this what manslaughter is for, if you want the conviction ? I get why mens rea may not apply here, but bringing it into question may make it viable next time, which would be worthy (or likely I don't understand law well enough).
