Psychopath Dev
  • Is this picture supposed to be offensive somehow?

    It can be, just like how the master-slave thing is supposed to be offensive I guess and anyone who's fine with using those terms is apparently against minorities and in favor of slavery. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    People forget that the entire world isn't the west.

    I didn't want to get ganged up on and cancelled so I deleted my comment.

  • inb4 someone takes offense and says how it discriminates and marginalizes and starts a campaign against the authors and calls them *-ist

  • What VPN would you recommend for torrenting?
  • Not only is UPnP a security risk, it'll work only if a user has an IP that can expose ports. IPv4 addresses are becoming rarer on home networks and CGNAT connections can't expose ports even if one turns on UPnP.

  • Motorola just launched a new Android phone to take on the Pixel 8
  • Sure, yeah, taking on the Pixel without specifying the number of years of OS and feature updates and without GrapheneOS support. Pretty good title for the post

  • Pixel 8 to have seven years of Android updates
  • There isn’t one. Maybe Fairphone 5 but even with custom ROMs, running Play Services as a sandboxed user app isn’t possible. And even vanilla iPhones can’t be as privacy oriented as GrapheneOS is.

  • D or d come on
  • It would be a default on almost every distro that follows XDG specifications to have stuff like Downloads, Pictures, Videos in the $HOME folder. One of the first things I do as part of an installation is to modify ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs and set a specific folder, say /data/downloads or ~/downloads, for every XDG base directory.

  • Apple Music 4.5 for Android getting new iOS 17-style widgets, more
  • You cannot listen from multiple devices at the same time. You can have multiple logged in, but only one can be actively playing a time.

    This wasn't my experience. I was logged into Apple Music on my iPhone and whenever I logged into Apple Music on my web browser, it did play music for a while but then music would stop playing randomly and I was told something similar to what you mentioned about only one device being active. I had to reload the page to make that warning go away but it came again after a while. This was when Apple Music wasn't being used on my iPhone, it was just logged in.

    I don't see how Apple Music can be considered a useful streaming service with this limitation unless one doesn't possess more than one computing device (literally just an iPhone, or just an iPad, or a just a desktop/laptop and nothing else). Sounds absurd. This isn't an issue with either Spotify or YT Music.

  • Apple Music 4.5 for Android getting new iOS 17-style widgets, more
  • Can I listen to Apple Music on my desktop on a web browser while being logged in to Apple Music on my iPhone/Android? The last time I subscribed to Apple Music (back in March or April 2023), it didn't allow being logged in and playing music on multiple devices simultaneously.

  • Pouncing an IRC Bouncer

    I wrote a blog post about setting up pouncer and calico to use as an IRC bouncer and improving the pouncer package in Alpine Linux.

    Dynamic Frequency Selection

    I recently created a gemini capsule for myself and hosted it on my Raspberry Pi.

    I came across a Wi-Fi issue in my OpenWrt router and made a gemlog post about it.

    Is there a way to turn off animations system-wide? (debian+swaywm)
  • Umm, I can't recall ever seeing any animations in swaywm. You're sure you're using sway and seeing animations in it?

  • The state of Playstore
  • It is. Those fake accounts that Aurora Store uses stop working randomly. I learned the hard way to never rely on Aurora Store ever again and just use sandboxed Play Store on GrapheneOS.
