@Spudi А пользователь тайлового оконного менеджера даже не сразу поймёт что это, о чём речь 😅

@tennoseremel@mstdn.io @lieslia_sau@mastodon.ml Саундтрек — блистательный шедевр! У меня он даже на диске есть. Жаль, что там нет деконструированных версий вроде
_n C_rcl_s

@ZySoua Вот эти тоже были хорошие 😂

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network I've also got myself a Seagate 5Tb USB drive around that time at a discount. Can't really recommend it as it's used as a storage for video files in a makeshift file server so it rarely even spins up, but at least it didn't fail 😅

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network TBH I was shocked myself. I can't say there were crazy workloads on this workstation, just normal DAW work/audio recording and Blacks are workstation-oriented so that shouldn't have been a problem, still… If you need backups, maybe go for WD Red, if I'm not mistaken those are slower and more power efficient (so less heat) — theoretically should make it last longer.

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network I'm disappointed in internal WD drives. Two of four WD Blacks I've bought 5 years ago died completely in 3 years. I didn't lose a thing as both were used in RAID1 arrays and both were replaced under warranty, still, 50% fail rate is r-r-really bad.

@evelyn Space Quest?

@Tutanota Yup, Matrix/Element!

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network @slylittlefox@ilyamikcoder.com Oh, I see. At least for you it's the expected behaviour.
xauth +localhost then? As a temporary fix of course.

@slylittlefox@ilyamikcoder.com @iska@mstdn.starnix.network Why even open a display if it's a music file, to display cover art? I think there is an option to disable it though, at least for mpv. Something like --no-audio-display

@evelyn A nasty bug in Firefox which broke all the add-on UI and which they didn't fix for three releases (!) made me build Firefox from source. I guess now is the right time to get to the next level and get rid of WebPee at compile time 😅

@evelyn Interfaces like this are the best. I once made a "remote" for the video player (totem?) on the nettop plugged into the TV-set. It was a static page with five buttons: play/stop, forward 10 secs, back 5 secs, previous file, next file, the links called the python functions that did the real job and I was: "Wow, this works so well". I bet, if I tried to find something already implemented, it would have everything and the kitchen sink, but would break every five minutes.

@evelyn Theoretically it could reduce the heating, which is a good thing… Theoretically 😏

@SuperDicq @Volpit A good counterexample is original C&C's only expansion pack — Covert Operations. It had zero new content, only "new missions". I mean really this stuff could be a bunch of fan-made save games in a zip-file, but they've put it on a CD and it was released as expansion pack: https://cnc.fandom.com/wiki/Command_%26_Conquer:_The_Covert_Operations

@seva77 Нет, ну у OnlyFans и H&M даже лучше чем было стало! «Шмотки и Точка» — вообще шикарно, хоть компанию регистрируй 😂

@evelyn Wow! The one who uses text editor to work with SVG uses kdenlive instead of some good old ffmpeg incantations? 😂

@scops 🤝 And I'm running Gomuks on a trusty olde Efika MX nettop. Had to build gcc-go from source though as Genesi never made even Linux kernel 3.0 for the poor thing, so reference Go implementation won't work.
Tried to do the same for PowerPC so I could run it on a G4 MacMini, but… On one platform the register struct in the kernel is a real struct, on the other one it's a macro — this stuff was too much of a neurosurgery grade rocket science to me 😅

@scops @Seferi Gomuks is almost flawless compared to anything not based on JS SDK. Well, Nheko is good too, but Qt is just not my cup of tea.
I use Element Web in Firefox (it's waay better than Electron) only for the sake of being able to paste images from system clipboard and voice calls.
Unfortunately Go itself is not that cross-platform. E.g. if you use PowerPC and musl you're out of luck.

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network I'm typing this using a laptop from 2013🤣 But good enough for me is not how it works. Being able to use tech on par in terms of performance with what was available to everyone 9 years ago just won't cut it. True, you may benefit from imposing trade restrictions in short term, but not in the long run. If you lack the tech edge the gap will only increase. And sanctions don't work like cutting off water to your house, so it's JUST three months. The future looks grim, but I might be wrong 😅

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network If you take a look at the data, Russian economy was already showing signs of slow down before the very beginning of this war in 2014, some sanctions were imposed, nothing THAT major, but COVID pandemic was a huge blow. For the world economy in general, but especially for Russia. They've needed to give this war which was no longer on the radar for common folk a new spin — to justify the lowering standards of living, not the other way round. Now everyone can blame that on the sanctions.
