You can get away with less if you don’t hibernate while using a ton of memory. For example, I have 32gb RAM and 16gb swap. If I tried to hibernate while rendering a video, then something would go wrong (IDK what tho. Maybe it would just say ‘no’?). But in most circumstances I’m just using like 8gb and hibernation works just fine.

I can see comic sans making it more usable

I do have astigmatism funnily enough

Anecdotally, my phone without Google Play services has a horrible time obtaining a GPS fix, so I suspect without GPlay it’s only using raw GPS, but I’ve not bothered to actually dig into it.

If you look at an app that shows satellites being recieved, it’s pretty cool to see how sensitive the GPS signal is to objects. Inside, maybe I’ll get one or two satellites near a window. But then I step outside, and see the list rapidly grow. I think my degoogled lineageos still has an assisted GPS option, though I haven’t tried it

The regulation also mentions an APP STORE

His waymo video was probably the most egregious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CM0aohBfUTc

Correct. Sometimes it works when everything else fails.

To the point where nothing responds and I need to kill it.

What about ctrl-alt-F3?

I started using Krita, which is amazing and does lots of things I do, but the text editor when I try to resize text, it just ruins it and gets blurry sometimes. Then I found inkscape, which was good for, text and everything else worked fine, but not much of photo editor.

Inkscape is like Adobe illustrator. It’s for vector graphics and text. it’s not great for photos/pictures/pixelated things. Like, you can add those as objects to a document. But you want to edit the images somewhere else. Maybe a krita --> inkscape workflow could work for you?

I also use kdenlive for video editing, and rawtherapee for DSLR photos editing.

If you’re also just kinda exploring software for fun, I recommend trying to play around with blender for more specialized video editing. Like, if you want to add complex effects, or motion track/stabilize, whatever. It’s an extremely powerful piece of software (best to look at tutorials, idk if anyone can figure that shit out on their own). All I’ve done with it is stabilize some video (which I then used in a kdenlive project), and I absolutely haven’t even scratched the surface.

The allergy to CLI is always strange to me.

I get it. Every single other application a GUI user has used in their life: Ctrl-C = copy, and Ctrl-Z = undo. Open the terminal, and now Ctrl-C is an interupt, and Ctrl-Z is like a pause. Every terminal emulator has the option to change these keymappings. But doing that has a bunch of consequences once you start running more than basic file operations and nano. I think this is usually the first big hurdle to get over. It’s muscle memory that needs to be suppressed.

And then there’s the documentation aspect. With a GUI, you can visually look around to see what can be done in a program. With the CLI, there’s options that you just kinda have to know. There’s -h or --help, then there’s the man pages. But even just navigating the man pages brings up the previous problem of unfamiliar/unintuitive keybindings. so you could also install tldr for faster help, but the vast majority of the time, it’ll be faster to just search online.

All that being said, I prefer the CLI for pretty much everything, and think it would be interesting if there was a sort of pedagogical distro to teach the command line. Imagine a file browser that displays the underlying utilities/commands being used. Like, when you open your home folder maybe there’s a line showing ‘ls -al /home/me | grep [whatever params to get the info being displayed]’. Or, when you go into the settings, it shows you the specific text files being edited for each option. Something that just exposes the inner workings a little more so that people can learn what they’re actually doing as they’re using the GUI

Your keyboard, and every other USB device? That’s a file.

Random number? this file here

Ned some Zeroes? That’s this file

Yeah, it’s a huge vulnerability. Even when you do delete something, you can still see that something was posted.

I believe this would be illegal in Illinois, which regulates biometric data collection

Do you see how you’re being political here?

It’s more expensive than you think, and it’ll probably be VoIP even if you get it from a “normal” phone company

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

In other words, Linux is the most deployed kernel. But if you’re talking about the “linux OS” then you’re probably actually thinking of GNU/linux, which I don’t think is as widely deployed as windows (maybe I’m wrong? that’s why I was asking). Or, you can include all OS’s using a linux kernel, in which case you’ll include all androids, but that’s not what most people mean when they talk about linux os.

Most deployed Kernel, but not desktop OS right? I don’t want to, but I will post the gnu/linux copy pasta

I left your comments as unread so if I got sick of doing the Easyeffects fix, I could try out changing the sampling rate. But the problem just… went away. lol. IDK if an update fixed it or if the gods just blessed my graphics card, but the distortion is gone after a couple months of doing nothing.

Give it a rest, perv
