  • My daughter loves rage against the machine and jazz24. However ever since I showed her the Sound of Music (1965) to introduce the topic of fascism and Nazis to her, she’s been listening to that nonstop. Its a great film with a great soundtrack though so I can’t complain too much. Still, slowly weaning her off. Maybe I should have let her watch the producers?


  • I love it and yes, sometimes youtube makes a breaking change that any dev needs to find a work around for.

    I use freetube on both because I can manage subscriptions better on it, and export to newpipe or freetube desktop easily. Freetube also includes sponsor block which is great.

    I also keep newpipe on my phone as a backup since sometimes it works when freetube doesn’t. I auto-update freetube from fdriod but let obtainum auto-update newpipe straight from their git repo so I know I got a good chance if having at least one working app.

    I haven’t tried pipepipe, it’s been a long time since I watched a billibilli vid. (BGM!!!)



  • Its also the time of year to start thinking about buying chicks. Its a commitment and I recommend doing your research but if you can properly care for egg laying hens then I highly recommend you consider building the required infrastructure and having hens. There is an initial investment, but now it costs me about $3 to produce a dozen pasture raised eggs.







  • If someone is complaining about windows, or raising privacy concerns that Linux would solve, or just talking about price options, then I think it’s perfectly fair to mention Linux.

    Right now the biggest issue with Linux is that some software is not made for it. With more Linux market share, devs have a higher incentive to build software for Linux. Like imagine if videogame devs didn’t think they needed windows to work, or Mac to run adobe.






  • I used to think this way. Until I found that with emacs you can edit any file on an SSH enabled computer remotely. Meaning that not only are you no longer constrained by what the computer has installed. But you can use your personality configured editor while editing that file. It’s called tramp.

    BTW, with Emacs you can use vim key bindings evil-mode, so don’t stress about that.
