I went into the offline mobile music player rabbit hole recently too. I tried like a dozen and personally I think none of them are sufficient, including Symphony.
The most important functionality for me is queuing e.g. how it works and how easy it is to use and it’s just a horrible experience for virtually every player. So disappointing 😣
This is really cool! Does anyone have any resources for drills to learn how to type like this?
This is interesting because this word does get used in American English, but it’s pronounced like “row your boat” not like wow.
In a similar vein to deadcade’s comment, Ripcord also exists also an alternative. If this exchange had happened a few months ago I would’ve recommended it above anything - but unfortunately it hasn’t been updated in a very long time at this point and it’s starting to cause some core functionality to not work.
EDIT: It’s pretty much exclusively the Slack functionality that doesn’t work anymore. The Discord side is great and is IMO has a much more useful UI, ex: you can group arbitrary channels from any number of servers into a single group which is presented in the UI pretty much as a new server. No more server hopping to check out all of your favorite channels!
Saaaaaame. So hype.
I don’t know what phone they’re talking about, but PinePhone disables sensors via hardware kill switches, i.e. nothing on the phone can use the sensors because they’re physically not connected anymore.
Haven’t seen these mentioned yet:
This is one of the newer shows made by Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo). Follows the crew of a small terrorist organization as they implement their various plots - lots of intrigue that makes you want to keep watching.
Follows a boxer’s journey in a semi-dystopian future. Very mature and themes of adulthood, especially season 2. And I mean real life mature, not gore and titties. I’ve never watched an anime that I found so relatable as an adult human being. Music is also extremely top tier and I’m personally a huge fan of it’s animation style.
Seconding Ergo Proxy!
That’s the “wide” solution and doesn’t always work. Beyond that, even if it did work it would be suboptimal. I come from a domain of games where not letting your players be precise is a grave sin and capital offense. So this just seems unbelievable.
Maybe they could add wildcard domain level blocking? Then you can block twitter.com for now and thex.com or whatever it gets changed to later.
You should look into VFIO. I was in the same place where I wanted to have a Linux desktop but I don’t want to dual boot to play games because that shit is CRAZY annoying. However, there’s a way to virtualize Windows inside of you Linux desktop and get 99% of your GPU’s performance due to VFIO. I think if you use Kubuntu specifically there’s a really strong guide for setting it up, although admittedly it’s not trivial. Good luck!
With all of the time I have, I am an insult to the dead.
In context, the person is saying they feel like they are wasting their life and that innumerable people in the past would’ve killed to have the kind of free time or life they have.
It reminds me to be grateful for both the time I have alive and the quality of that time.
I find it extremely motivating in pursuing my various personal pursuits. I should seem like a Renaissance master to the people of the past and anything less is insulting.

maybe 5G or wifi 6
This is why we need phones with swappable modules. I’m pretty sure my current phone could last for decades if I could replace it’s radio equipment to keep up with modern standards.
Thanks for mentioning your donating. Reminded me to go and get that set up!
Another user posted about photoprism, which has AI powered features like facial recognition. Might be worth checking out.
Phonograph commits the same sin as every other player in that swipe changes tabs and is therefore a total waste of a premium gesture.
