Do one thing and do it well…or compete with one of the largest computing firms in the world to develop a 💩version of commercial software. Captivating…

Set up split tunneling for your torrenting program only.

Fuck around with proprietary software and find out.

MPD and whatever terminal MPD client you like.

Can’t argue with that.

And enables modular workflows and flexiblity.

I wonder how well it supports Debian, etc.

Do one thing and do it well. Oh well…

Good questions. I don’t know, but it’s unlikely that Rust will be included in the base system anytime soon. It is of course available as a package.

Got it, but it seems like Newsflash may have a memory leak issue?

Stop using Newsflash or submit a bug report?

We have a all-in-one keyboard and mouse. Labeled function keys to start streaming services with Chrome in kiosk mode. Obviously, mouse to navigate is in some ways more work than a remote, but actually much faster. Similarly, typing for a search is way faster with keyboard. Side benefit is that it’s larger size means it won’t get lost in the couch cushions.

The corporitization of linux continues. I jumped to BSD. Just linux at work now.

I have a low power nuc that I use to watch TV. All streaming services + KODI or whatever. I don’t know why I would use some proprietary dongle. I prefer FOSS.

Sometimes it is for the best.

Eh? TV boxes? Just use a web brower. What is a TV box?

Change is not always for the best. I used to like Linux for the stability.

Linux + GNU + systemd…jumped to BSD a long time ago now…

You could use newsboat -x reload && newsboat -x print-unread as a good start to get the status of unread articles and print a notification (for example using dunst) when the number increases.

Linux should have been a developer’s platform. Sadly it’s incredibly commercial now. Won’t be long before it becomes like Windows for the gAmErS.
