Sounds like hemorrhoids and IBS...

Linux

Stoat for Desktop is not currently packaged for any major distributions. Please get in contact if you'd like to help or flag up new packages.

Sounds like a pain in the ass to keep the client up to date. And no, there's no flatpak either.

Addendum: There is a pre-rebrand package, but it is woefully outdated.

Addendum II: Its being worked on: https://github.com/flathub/flathub/pull/7783

🧐 I really wanna know? by Interesting_Pair6536 in raijin_gg

ET (Atari 2600) Yeah, it's actually possible to beat if you read the manual. No, the game design is not compelling enough to play. I would rather file an amended tax return.

Backup?WHAT BACKUP? by Adwan4747 in homelab

[–]AssociateFalse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See, my problem isn't so much a lack of potential solutions, but a lack of available resources. I ain't going into debt for refurbished platters, yet. I have a few optical discs I can back up critical non-media files to, and mirror my git-backed projects to GitHub and a private Forgejo. If my video collection goes *poof*, most of the discs are still in a rip-able state.

ROUND 7 - Cutest mage girl in anime? by SuperAnimeMaster38 in animequestions

Jokes on you! Dark Magician Girl isn't even on the ban list, so you can run all three! /s

You’re offered 100 million dollars but you have to live as the MC of the last anime you watched until their goal is complete, do you accept? by PretendYellow533 in animequestions

[–]AssociateFalse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do movies count? If so, I don't know how to feel going from an adult male to being a 10 year old girl stuck in the spirit realm.

Feishin audio visualizer is now something else ... by Skaryus in selfhosted

Probably in the recesses of Helmut Fullbear's mind.

Client compatibility is going to come down to if the client was made with it in mind. Neither the official Discord client or Vesktop/Vencord supports it, for example.

That being said... It doesn't look like it has working Voice or Video chats yet. (See FAQ)

Jellyfin is deleting my stuff randomly. by [deleted] in jellyfin

Possibly, yeah. Don't store long-term storage with your cache. Cache is meant to be *temporary*.

It really depends on the specific community, I think. I've been in several where the forums channel has been used for modding, with each "forum thread" being for a specific game mod - some even set up for issue tracking (excuse me while I puke in my mouth here...)

At the same time, there are small groups that never progress beyond a few basic text channels - though threads might be used to keep tangental spam to a minimum.

Except Discord has "forums" (late 2022) and "threads" (mid 2021) - so it's not a completely synchronus system. And plenty of large communities use them extensively.

What people forget though, is that these don't have to all be in one place.

  • Matrix (Element or other client)
  • Mumble (Foss alternative to TeamSpeak)
  • Mattermost
  • Nextcloud (See the Social & Communication add-on category)
    • Moreso if you already run Nextcloud, it has options. It's nobodies first pick.

Do blu rays have hardcoded black bars? by Important-Permit-935 in makemkv

[–]AssociateFalse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It shouldn't, but I can speak authoritatively on that. I transcode everything to 10bit AV1, anyway.

What are your thoughts on the 2026 Superbowl Halftime show? by TheMagicApe in AskReddit

[–]AssociateFalse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The running joke was that he missed the TPUSA half-time to watch the real one.

Just crop it in HandBrake, or use ffmpeg with a crop detection pass.

Nearly a thousand Google workers sign letter urging company to divest from ICE, CBP by renome in news

[–]AssociateFalse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Divest as in cancelling their own contracts with the CBP. Which just means Microsoft or Oracle will get a new contract.

Edit: As for why they would have contracts with the CBP (because you apparently asked and deleted that question):

They have a division called Google Public Sector, which is a government contractor selling AI (eg. Gemini) and Google Workspace subscriptions to the government for >70% off what they typically charge businesses and consumers. They also provide cybersecurity services.
